I just sat in 2 in real life haha. On your main dash behind steering wheel is your rev counter on left. Warning lights beside that to left. In centre water temp and fuel level. Speedometer to the right of that and some arrow buttons that work your computer to the right of that. Up top centre is your computer display/command centre screen. Other then that I don’t see no other screen

Now days you can put any multitude of gauges to display on the computer screen... Even ones pertaining to the towed implement... So it could be anything. I used to set mine to show speed, engine temps (oil and water) outside temp, hydraulic temp, and fuel level.

Ah okay. That is definitely not in these tractors. I’m in Australia. Different specs in tractors in Europe or whatever? :confusednew:

Pretty sure that that one relates to the wear and tear on the tractor. Mine was about halfway down and then returned to green when I did maintenance.

Is it though? To me it seems on cold start it's closer to the 12 o'clock position (above the green) then moves to the 3-4 o'clock position after Warmed up. Then it fluctuates in the green band but I don't know what its reading that makes it move. FYI the real HD 6M series has a gauge in that exact spot as well. Spotted it in a hu** for the 6M but couldn't find any info on that gauge. Just talk about the fancy touch screen dash 👍🏾

Boost gauge? In case you want to go to the quarter mile the green is when the optimum launch :lol:

Air pressure gauge. I tested it out by pressing my brakes a bunch of times and it kept going down until the compressor kicked in as I could hear that sound and the needle went back up.

Yup. You can see it going down as you press brakes, also you can see it if you switch on the vehicle debug physics. The total number in brackets next to air goes down as the gauge goes down, but the correlation is a bit weird. Max number in the debug screen is 3000 whereas the gauge goes to 10

I’m pretty sure that’s air pressure for the brakes. I think most of the game tractors have them.

It is the air pressure in bar from the air brakes as already told.
We did have a couple of them.
A 6810, 2x 6920S, 1x 6420, 1x 6125R and a 6155R.
The fist one the oldes JD is last weekend changed from a Fendt 718 and a 6920S for an Claas Arion.
I think it is a shame that the 6m in fs19 cant have a front 3 point linkage.
I would love to mow with the triple just like in real live.
