Shoe, love your maps, probably more than 90% of my time in farming simulator has been on your maps. Hope you bring them to FS19 when it comes out.

That being said (and I am a huge fan of your work), wish you would test the wool pallet spots on your sheep farms. Thunder Valley has the wool pallets spreading out of the gather box as it increases, until it's on the other side of the fence. They may be facing the wrong way too if you are using pallet forks to lift them up. I only noticed, because this one thing has been an issue on every map of yours I've played.

A tiny request, if I may. Wondering if you could lengthen the spinnery sell points on your maps. If you go in with a long trailer load of pallets, you've got to time it just right to move forward as they are unloading so the price won't drop. Not a big deal.

Minor thunder valley issue, the workshop in the yard charges you to use it like you were at the shop.

I'm at 59 hours on Thunder Valley.

I used the starter machines for awhile but replaced most of the tools.
I tend to use two AI and drive a third tractor myself.
You start with three Case 1455's, after playing for an hour I decided to make "My" tractor unique.
Upon entering the custom shop I discovered it already had wide tires and the front loader mount, Nice touch!

For seeding I have the AI planting and I run support, refilling using a Horsch UW 160(MOD).

I was splitting field 13 exactly like lefe1. At least for the first few cycles.

At some point, I picked up a gold nugget while walking along the roadside.
More nuggets were found as I explored the map. (Hint: Explore the map, stay on the roads, keep an eye in the ditches)
I bought field 9 after finding the remaining nuggets.

@RODHA ~ Where did you find chickens? Or a sell point for eggs?

@lefe1 ~ PIP is nice. Having a 2nd TV is nicer. :) My 2nd screen is usually split between YouTube and Giants forum.

@SOMS2 (Some feedback. Its only my opinion, I mean no offense)
I love the layout of the tree farm, the rows of dirt appeal to my OCD.

The layout of the farm feels great, although I'm not a huge fan of the damaged sheds. (Also featured on Mustang Valley) I feel like my character would either fix or raze these buildings.

I'm also not a big fan of having seed/fert/gas on site, as I like to collect my own supplies. (Also featured on Mustang Valley & American Outback) I can see why some people would love this, but it takes away from jobs I enjoy.

You make great maps!
202hrs Mustang Valley Ranch (the ONLY map suitable for Big Bud) The AI seems to hit something invisible in field 5, southern border on the west side. This is the first map I ever employed 6 fulltime AI workers. I felt SO accomplished when I finally purchased field 4!

296hrs American Outback (2200 cows/pigs, will GLADLY replay Special Edition) I will miss using the space where new field 18 is located. In my game that area is Chips N Forage silos, Liquid Silos, Manure sell point, greenhouses and Semi-trailer parking. I will find a new space in your updated map.

PENDING Who Dat Who Der Ranch (The layout appeals to my OCD, but still havent started)
I play on Xbox3 (Which they called the "One" for some reason)

When you say that I just remembered reading there are no chickens in the map :biggrin2: I did completely forget about it. Thats why I was confused because of the question mark on selling eggs :lol: Thanks for poking my weak memory *thumbsup*
