When I was young and in my prime, I worked some BIG farms. FS19 brings back those memories.

One tip is and I don’t know if you know but the first tractor uses say 16 slots and if you buy a duplicate it uses only 1 more slot

[Rasping rabbit]

Do you have them all stored around the same area? If so it may be worth spreading them out a little. That’s a lot of machinery

I tend to leave things dotted round the map, like anything remotely animal related is stored by the cows/sheep etc.

[Patrick73]

God knows what it’s like tabbing around that lot....compared to that list I’m an alottment owner

[MrChuck523]

One tip is and I don’t know if you know but the first tractor uses say 16 slots and if you buy a duplicate it uses only 1 more slot

But the shop max slot count is over 1200. I never exceeded 1000. That’s why equipment never occurred to me.
Yes, a few items are scattered but most stays at main farm when not in use. Thanks everyone.

Pleasure ^^^ how long have you been playing FS?

FS17 about 2 months but due to my Xbox profile issue I never could access mods. FS 19 I preordered. Got a bit frustrated at bugs and maps so went back to 17, then 19 update and mods came out. Probably more info than asked for but..... anyway love new features of 19 and especially Mercury Farms map. I’ve put in well over 200 hours in FS19.

Still playing, no issues. Equipment seems to have been the problem.
Yes, mr SealyP is my favorite YouTuber.

Not entirely unrelated, he is friends with alienjim

Definitely worth checking out though, I have learnt loads from him.

I cut all hedges off at the bottom and hired workers refuse to drive over it. Do i have to restart my game and cut the posts from the top first? Or do hired workers usually leave a big section untouched where they turn around?

Can you give more information? For example, did you get rid off the stumps after cutting the posts? Does the worker refuse to drive over the area where the posts were after you turn that part into a new field or as you try to make the worker turn that part into a new field, etc. If you can give a bit more specific info I can be more helpful

It happens on existing fields currently on fields 10,11 i believe. I cut the posts with a chainsaw then stump grind bottom(sometimes after cutting there is no stump visible, but grinder still shows woodchip animation). The helpers drive the tractor to where the hedge was and stop and turn leaving however much untouched. This happens with fertilizer, seeding, and harvesting.

I would say there is still some of the stump there that you can’t see just went through similar problem. Had a heck of time locating them.

Ive even done a few laps around with the mulcher and it happens everywhere i cant have missed them all..i hope lol
