If you have the destruction mod installed what will happen to missions where you have to fertilise etc?

Bradm73 uses it and the big Fendt flattened the crops. But it will not affect the mission outcome. Once the mission is done the crop is back!

The mod still needs to be tuned, because it destroys neighbors crops too, when watching it on youtube from official preview partner brad73, I came to mind the episote of doctor who when they drove the pickup through a weat field in England to get to the tartis which landed on a Newspaper with the article about a strange crop circle with a picture of the circle with the name Doctor spelled out on a wheat field in England. The doctor said really guys?

The mod may bug the npc mssions so be careful with that mod.

Have not seen any bug in any stream in any mission, so doubt it will be an issue :!:

I can't find this mod on the mod hub for FS17. I'm I just blind or not looking hard enough? Could I have a link to it.

I don't think you can access fs17 mod hub outside of the game. Have you looked in all the categories?

So does having wide wheels and dual wheels increase fuel consumption?

I have the Case Puma 240 with wide tyres (270hp) and the Case Optum 300 with duals (313hp) and the Optum seems to use significantly more fuel and I was wondering if that was because of the tyres, the difference in the work the tractors do or something else.

With the Puma I have used approximately 300L in 9 hours of running time, while the Optum has used about 450L in 5 hours so there is a significant difference

Is not this the "point" of this mod?
In my opinion it should even destroy the common "grassland" on the map when driving over it ... :this:
