Worker confusion on 'stolen' land.

[Dexzilla]

Hi all. In my Sosnovka play through I have had to liberate land as I am not 'allowed' to buy any.
I know workers can get confused if they are interrupted when the machinery they have is capable of reworking land, IE seed drill which can re cultivate already seeding field.
In my case the worker is running a front cultivator and seeder. On one 'field', outside the main store, the worker turns the wrong way no matter what if his work is interrupted for any reason...
I just wonder if this happens on PC too ( i am Xbox) or if anyone has any suggestions that can avoid this.
In 15 the Ai seemed to run off the piece of equipment mounted first, so the worker would seed and also happen to cultivate, but ignore the fact he could re-cultivate the planted areas, I cannot get this to happen in 17 at all.
Not a huge problem, the worker just needs managing more closely and the field has been adjusted to remove some of the issues but.....

If you want to see what I mean check https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=siY05h2aqF8&t=1427s about 22 mins in.

Thanks!

Do not ask the worker to perform multiple tasks at the same time.
(IE: Cultivating and seeding)

By putting a cultivator in front of the seeder, you are "erasing" everything in front of you.
The AI will literally continue to tear up/reseed until it runs out of field. (including jumping into adjoining fields if close enough)

If you are manually seeding and miss a small spot, then come back to it, the seeder will only dispense seed into the spot you missed.

With the cultivator in front, you are cultivating seeds you just planted, then planting again. Spending seed twice (or more if you do it again).

Have the AI cultivate the entire field then make a second pass with just the seeder. This will save you some headache.

Thanks Farm216, yes it is the multi tasking that causes the headache and separating the two jobs would fix it.
The problem only starts if the worker is interrupted (off hire) during the work in a field. making sure he won't need a reload during a field helps a lot, where possible. I have also tidied up the field boundary to reduce any collision issues the worker has with the scenery.

The same thing happens with seed drills like the Vaderstad too, only I have found that the worker will predictably turn to the right if 'confused' which is easier to manage, by restarting the worker at the end of the field that makes a right turn the 'right' way.
The odd thing on the stolen field is that the worker seems be determined to turn the wrong way regardless, as in the clip.
And it is a pity you cannot tell the AI which piece of equipment to run itself off of like in 15, by hitching that piece of equipment first.
