Seasons mod (op updated re: bug reports)

[JohnDeere77]

Makes sheep more profitable than I taught they were. Not much wool thou, wich Im not sorry for

I think two threads have been combined that really shouldn't have been

The mods seem to be merging any thread even remotely related to seasons into this thread, making it a nightmare to follow.

If seasons is important enough that they need to take such measures to keep it from flooding the forum, perhaps it's time to open a designated Seasons section. Cramming anything seasons related into one mega thread like this is certainly not the way to go.

We done the same for seasons with FS17, if everyone posted in here re: seasons instead of making a thread to ask a question things would go swimmingly. That said though I take your point on the maps thread so I'll split them now.

I have no idea how weeds work. No matte when I spray, only portions of the field will accept spray. It acts like herbicide is good for years.

I suppose just try it and see, trial and error, just backup before you go moving files.

Anyone else having an issue with some of the ModHub Mods, specifically placeables like the Wind Turbines and Windmill Mods, when using Seasons? With Seasons installed and activated on a game, when you place these objects they just sit completely static and don't move on any map. Deactivate and remove Seasons, load back into game and now the Turbines and Windmills spin correctly as they should.

What's the wind like? If I recall, seasons changes the turbines to where they rely on wind a bit and if it's too windy then they won't spin.

[cwattyeso]

Didn't check that but noticed it's odd, because Windmills, Turbines placed in the maps by the map authors spin correctly with or without Seasons Installed. So if my placeable wind turbines and windmills don't spin, cause of wind issues, surely that'd apply to all the decorative ones on a map too?

[reallogger]

That is probably cause the map author did not use the standard game script for the wind turbines.

Below 3 m/s and above 25 m/s the turbine is stationary.

I have some questions for crop rotation.
Lets say i bought field which had potatoes planted, but i want my rotation to be wheat-soybeans-canola for maximum yield.
Will potatoes affect my yield only for the next 2 years (wheat and soybeans) and after that i will regain my maximum yield ?
So basically rotation will be potatoes (already planted in bought field, but i dont want potatoes) - wheat - soybeans - canola - wheat - soybeans - canola - wheat - soybeans - canola and just repeat.

As far as I understand, yes. Only the previous 2 crops are affecting your yield, so after the first 2 crops you want to put in, the bonus is in full effect

[bojanh66]

Oh yes, its the previous 2 crops, not next 2 crops as i said, my mistake.
Thats very nice to hear, so basically we can ignore what is planted in the field we bought and we can continue our favorite crop rotation for maximum yield.
Thnx.

Yes and if You leave field, without harvesting in full year. On the next year its gonna be fallow. When You skip field for 2 years (2 x fallow) u can get max yield for soybeans . It's just one perfect rotation I've found for soybeans

[bojanh66]

Yes, but i do not see a point leaving a field fallow for year or two for slight yield bonus.
IMO, leaving a field fallow for 1 or 2 years is waste of time just to get 1.20 bonus for soybeans or some other crop, i will rather sow/plant something and make some money on other crops, like wheat 1.20 - canola 1.20 - soybeans 0.95, their total yield bonus is 1.20 + 1.20 + 0.95 = 3.35 than fallow (0) + fallow (0) + soybeans 1.20 = 1.20.
I may be wrong, but that's how i would do, i am satisfied with 0.95 yield on soybeans, because i will make 1.20 yield on other crops like cereals and oilseed.

[Nigel]

Well ya, three .95 yields is more crop than one 1.20 yield.

The differences in income per hectare are minimal for all crops. At a high dif lvl it's about 10K $. Sugar Beets - 20K, potatoes 22k, cotton 14k, If I remember correctly, it's around 40K for sugar cane
