I bought a siloking selfline.
But i noticed that when i put in the amounts of hay, straw and silage in the tolerances and create the powerfood and then dump it
it seems that not all of it gets to turn into power food?
Am i mixing wrong maybe?
What you made is TMR. The bars are between the arrows so you did it right.
When you feed them that mix all bars - eventually, there is some lag in it - will go up except grass. You have to feed that seperate from TMR too.
Maybe the thing you are confused about is that feeding reservoir capacity increases with the number of animals. You have 49 cows so you need several loads of that rather small mixer to fill the bars of the cow feeding reservoir. That is why mod mixer wagon versions are up to 3 x larger and have 2 to 3 axles.
The original game vehicles (trailers) have a problem with scaling up capacity anyway. All are excellent for starting conditions, but what if you grow a lot larger ?

I pretty sure, I had a full mixer wagon with tmr. And only one ingredient was emptied out.. Filled the through with hay(it's easier to make than silage..) and then the tmr was filling the through as it should.

I have had one kind empty out leaving another to be emptied by itself. I think when they said fill the straw and Grass first then add the TMR that it works best. I'm feeding 1000 cows now so I don't pay much attention to "exact" mix. I fill with straw, then grass, then TMR. I do each one until the sign comes up telling me I reached the 6 day limit.
I'm on a PC so I can put up a storage unit (mod) nearby and put all of my straw, silage, TMR and hay in it. Then I also put up a silage silo (mod) to make the bulk silage. Then I added a mixing station. (mod) It is not as good as the one in fs15 but it works. So I end up with hundreds of thousands of liters of everything so that I can keep up with that many cows.
The result is half a million in milk sales every night at midnight. Its worth all the work.

Liter of what? Milk? It fluctuates and I don't think I ever looked it up. I will try to watch at 23:59 and see how many liters I'm selling and do the math for you. Can't promise I'll remember.

That's the interesting part : if you spill TMR mix on the floor and later pick it up and try to blend in the next TMR mix you won't be able to. Seems TMR "remembers" the ratio it is made of, and won't mix with TMR of another ratio.
