Course play

[JohnDeere77]

When using Course play and convoy(I think thats the name for it) with two combines, do they have to have equally wide headers?

[Mwal]

If you want to run the same course they do. Easy fix is to create a new course for each and start them on the opposite sides of the field.

[JohnDeere77]

I think about the mode where they drive side by side. Its not actually the same course since the second one doesnt drive where the first one has driven, but skips where the first one has been.

They need to have the same width. Otherwise they will hit each other or miss spot.

Been there, done that

Tx!

Not what you were asking but if you run a single combine the recently added course option of "lands" works really well.

[JohnDeere77]

Tx again! Anything special to keep in mind when downloading the newer version of CP?

[Miketeg]

If you download it from Github, don't forget that this is a developper version

[Alagos]

Technically you can only download it from Github legitimately, so it's always a dev version

Alright, I managed to make it work with different sized headers. I.e. a 9m combine and a 7.6m one working side by side: you'd have to generate the course at an average working width of 8.3m, I use 8.2 because it's easier to offset with even decimals. You want to keep symmetric line change off and use the offset function with a value of half the difference between the average working width and the specific combine's working width eg (8.2 - 7.6)/2 = 0.3 and (9 - 8.2)/2= 0.4 so the larger combine would be offset 0.4m towards the middle of the two lanes and the smaller one 0.3m towards the outside.
I hope it helps although I've just realised it looks a bit confusing, would be happy to explain something better

[JohnDeere77]

Yes, but I ment if I have to remove the old version or anything. Would all my recorded routes still be there?

Oh yes, thats a bit too complicated

last version freeze my game (key and mouse stop to work).
Anyone has my issue? I'll remove courseplay and all works correctly.

[Miketeg]

Yes everything will be there, but course already "saved" won't have the new fonctionnality (like if they work on headend improval, these already saved course won't have this new "feature")

I've learned to always keep 3 or 4 older versions in case the new one is glitchy. you can just pick the one you want to use when loading the game, just don't have more than 1 selected.
