What is "Worked time" exactly?

Looking through the statistics tab, to get a hint on what to invest in next in order to cut time, there is a post named "Worked time". How is this calculated exactly? It's obvious not the sum of cultivation time, plow time, and so on.

Sometimes I miss a FS19 manual that explains more than just the overall gameplay. Getting tired of endless testing to answer my own questions. Is there some explanation of the statistics tab somewhere?

As far as I remember doing contracts doesn’t add time to cultivation, ploughing etc., so maybe the time spent in contracts is added to “Worked time” with the others? :confusednew:

Sorry I can’t be to more help, but I rarely look at the statistics tab myself.

Yes, thanks. I was looking in that one too.

Well, my "Worked time" is LESS than the sum of the plow time, cultivation time, ...

Not 100% sure, but how is the time recorded for example when using a seeder which applies fertilizer too?
My guess for 10 minutes seeding time:
10 minutes seeding
10 minutes fertilizing
10 minutes worked time

That would explain the difference you observed.

Yes, but I'm not using any seeder with fertilizer. I fertilize separately.

Another strange example; starting a Felsbrunn basegame and sending a worker cultivating isn't adding to the cultivation time.

Is worked time the time you actually worked (not a helper)?

Nope. If I start a worker on a seeder, the seeding time start counting. But, as I mentioned, strangely enough not for a cultivating worker. However the cultivated hectars is counted though(!?).

These figures could be quite useful. But unfortunately it's starting to look like a bug in the game ...unless someone can explain it
