Courseplay and turning
Courseplay and turning
I’ve been experimenting with courseplay lately trying to find its limits and the first one I’ve found is that the workers always want to back up when turning even when I have them make a headland, is there any way to where they make a wide turn and don’t reverse, the reason I’m asking is I’m trying to use the big Austrian planter with the large seed cart then the drill behind it but that set up should never be put in reverse and so the worker always gets stuck, any help would be greatly appreciated
Re: Courseplay and turning
You could deactivate 'Turn on field' if there is a bit of room outside the field or do one more headland pass.
Re: Courseplay and turning
Yep I found that courseplay has issue with going reverse with large equipment (seeder mostly). They seems to start going reverse and totaly lose their minds...finishing in trees...rivers...house..
I will try to deactivate the "Turn on field" to see if it will helps.

Re: Courseplay and turning
If you're doing headlands make sure to switch the corner from "Turn" to "Smooth" or "Radius" I can't recall exactly what the options are called but it changes the way the worker handles the corners when doing headlands.

Re: Courseplay and turning
I noticed there are some new workmodes: Circular and spiral. I think you might need to use one of those.
Or you could try to force a wide turn by increasing the steering radius manually. But there is a chance that the AI will start the turn by counter-steering.
Reduce the steering radius setting to 0 will set it back to auto

Re: Courseplay and turning
Circular and Spiral are very good methods of working fields with Courseplay with Harvesters, to ensure that the Pipes are always on the side opposite crop, meaning vehicles can always get to the harvester to unload them without driving over and damaging crop. Works well with headland. So I tend to do 1 or 3 headlands round a field first then switch to Spiral, and that works great for harvesters.
Courseplay Devs though have been fiddling with stuff in recent updates to do with vehicles working fields and turning on fields. They particular seem to have made a big change in that Courseplay now uses "Use the front/back marker nodes in turn" which is okay if the vehicles have the markers set up in the right place. Some default in game vehicles have some weird marker node placement courtesy of Giants, and some Mods have some pretty weird placements. This means those vehicles are always going to produce some weird and wild results when turning and working on fields.
I also notice the Turn Method for headlands has been changed or tweaked recently by the Devs. The Smooth and Radius options which I used to always use, now produce varied results. A lot of the time now the vehicle will miss huge triangles on the corners of fields with either of those settings, so it seems if the field your working is square/rectangular in shape you need to have the headland set to Turn for it to work/harvest it properly now.

Re: Courseplay and turning
Thanks for the suggestions guys, I’ve been learning the ropes so to speak with courseplay and I love the possibilities with it having come from console but at one point I was scratching my head like dang even the in game worker can make a turn with this seeder

Re: Courseplay and turning
You could also try activating the skip row function so that the worker is not trying to make such tight turns.
Some equipment just really doesn’t play well with Courseplay though, it can take a bit of experimenting to find the best combination of machinery and Courseplay settings but it can do really brilliant stuff once you get things set up!

Re: Courseplay and turning
I've found the best way to handle big seeders is to do the headlands, then just use a normal hired worker for the up and down.

Re: Courseplay and turning
I don't really have any issues at all with CP. What I do for turns are.
Make sure the course have Headlands.
Run those as smooth.
I measure the turn radius of the tractor and implement by making a tight 180 on the field and use the measurement mod.
Then I set that value in CP
I use "skip rows" as often as possible and always set the starting location manually to get the best course.

Which measurement mod are you referring to? I can only find one for measuring logs and whatnot.asyvan wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 10:10 am I don't really have any issues at all with CP. What I do for turns are.

It says that it's for measuring logs but you can use it on whatever actually.Goooober wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 12:43 pmWhich measurement mod are you referring to?

Yes that one. It actually measures between two points so you can measure anything.Goooober wrote: ↑Fri Jul 12, 2019 12:43 pmWhich measurement mod are you referring to?

Re: Courseplay and turning
with my current version of CP 6.1.00316 i do not see anywhere that you can adjust "Turn on Field"
Also there was a post on how to make wider turns (for not to miss harvest spots on turn) which I do not see either
Checked these areas:
Course Generation
Advanced Settings
Game Settings
General Settings
Am I missing this somewhere?

Re: Courseplay and turning
The option only appears when a tractor is actively using a course
