Glad to hear the updates! I do have one question- are y'all doing anything with weeds? Like making them more predictable or allowing preemptive care for fields to prevent them?

A gameplay update:

Remember the grass, hay and straw rotting in Seasons for FS17? With new engine changes in FS19 we have been able to redo this system for Seasons 19.

Firstly, hay and straw heaps now don't rot when stored under a roof just like bales.

Secondly, we have also created a whole new grass system. It solves the issue of grass swaths rotting within a day and adds weather based gameplay to working with grass.
After tedding, the sun will need to dry the grass before it becomes hay. Is the weather bad and does it rain? Then the dry grass turns bad instead and will eventually start to rot.

thanks for the update can't wait to play with seasons keep up the good work guys.

Sure thing, we overhauled it.

Weeds grow in small patches continuously. You can spray before any show to prevent them from growing. You can use the weeder to remove small weeds and sprayer to remove large weeds (just like vanilla) but after a while sprayed weeds will disappear.

It is not super predictable but your whole field won't suddenly be covered in weeds while you are harvesting. Maybe a small spot will appear while you're doing so.

If you use a wide spread mower, or choose not to make single windrow with the krone mover. The need for tedding should be gone. It's possible to make hay without tedding if the weather is good. But I'm afraid it's not doable because the thedder Is basicly a "switch"..

YES tedding, YES weather needed, YES consequence

Currently, when the crop is wet you need to ted. If it is try you can leave it to the sun to dry.

We reserve the right to make any change :p

So can we expect to see it released to pc before console again or will it be ready for both at the same time?

[Rasping rabbit]

I would assume it will be the same as the majority of mods and realeased separately due to Microsoft/Sony testing

So you have to do tedding before grass starts to dry?

Are we going to have a tool like wopster to see the status of the grass or does the field info going to show that?

Thanks,
