Better yet, how do you know that you're not a character being controlled in a simulator by a superior being on his/her/it's computer? :confusednew:

If we are in a Simulator, and we are the playable characters, my player must hate me, I'm 33, overweight, and not lucky in life at all, sounds very much like the matrix

I'm only 29... but, the 3 of us must share the fate of having the same player.

I find it funny that IRL is has better GPS and automated tractors than a video game that has all the stuff defined within it.

IRL take your four wheeler or gator out to the field and drive around all the boundaries to map the course and then when you are in the tractor, just have to hit a button and go.

Man, this puts a whole new perspective on Farming Simulator. Hope the police aren’t actually coming after my virtual tractor for a major felony of running over too many transparent pedestrians :lol: :lol:

I can just imagine John Deere hiring a FS modder someday to program Courseplay or Follow Me into an autonomous 8R :lol: :lol:

Don’t we just wish tech could already do that...
