Man TGX 26.640

[speedstr99@gmail.com]

The new man tgx tanker truck has problems filling and with transfering fuel from tanker to machinery. I spent a fortune on fuel and 20 minutes filling it only to find out it doesn't work properly.

Edit don_apple: topic moved from german to english section.

Ive used it for liquid fertilizer so far with no issue. I will put a bit of fuel in it and test it.

I tried it with 3 modded and unmodded tractors and 2 harvesters and could not get it to work. The thunder Creek fuel trailer filled from it so maybe a trigger issue for certain equipment?

It saddens me because I think the ability to use a fuel truck adds authenticity amd adds a cool factor. I even tried the Komatsu forestry tanks. Works well with water milk and fertiliser though.

I can only put fuel in this trucks bulk tank if I transfer it from the Lizard MKU 8 tanker trailer mod.

There is an issue with this tanker, and I have made a quick solution to it.
I found that if you remove the watertrailer configuration from it, it will fill Fuel and overload Fuel to other vehicles just fine.
It will still fill Water and discharge Water to animals just fine.

Unpack FS19_MANMilk.zip to a folder and change the two files below using preferably Notepad++ (free download HERE).
Rezip all the files again after save.

In modDesc.xml find this:

Code: Select all

		<specialization name="waterTrailer" />

Change it to this:

Code: Select all

		<!--specialization name="waterTrailer" /-->

In tgx26640.xml find this:

Code: Select all

   <waterTrailer fillUnitIndex="1" fillLitersPerSecond="450" fillNode="tgx26640_main_component1">
        <sounds>
            <refill template="DEFAULT_REFUEL_SOUND" linkNode="0>" />
        </sounds>
    </waterTrailer>

Change it to this:

Code: Select all

   <!--waterTrailer fillUnitIndex="1" fillLitersPerSecond="450" fillNode="tgx26640_main_component1">
        <sounds>
            <refill template="DEFAULT_REFUEL_SOUND" linkNode="0>" />
        </sounds>
    </waterTrailer-->

Unfortunately that won't work for console.

Of course not. There is nothing I can do, the mod author need to change this and resubmit to Giants.
But for all the PC Gamers out there, there is an easy DIY fix.

i think giant should have full right to fix modder mod since they wont fix it i have left 5 message with him and no reply like he walked off face of earth

Never used this Tanker or the IT Runner Truck after discovering that neither are Courseplay Compatible. The fact the author has used some custom made specialisations and vehicle types on the mods, is reason alone to avoid using them. Even with the edits Asyvan listed above to fix the loading and unloading issue, I would still avoid these mods and any others that mod authors insist on using their own make believe specialisations and types on, which really screws up their compatibility with other vehicles, equipment and mods that only look at and use the default base game specialisations and types that Giants put in the game.

Giants won't fix mods from other authors.
