I'm still seeing what will work and what won't before I decide, gps still worked on vehicles I had it fitted to it just didn't show on the gator which still seemed to functio

I appreciate the hard work that was put into this and was looking forward to it. TBH just to much baloney to use it right now.

I’m just finishing up planting and fertilization about to being herbicide application. I don’t want to have to start over with only a few growth stages left.
Just tried it on my Six Ashes save & yes it does reset field state. Did not remove crops though. Going to have to wait till crops are harvested before enabling.
Thank you.

On console this is an awesome addition. Each crop requires different amounts of fertilizer, like it should be. I noticed soybeans don't require any additional after planting. And with seasons, it will only be 1 pass required after planting, not multiple.
Just curious how many seasons will the soil sample be good for?

I was wondering the same thing irl ours usually go 3 so hoping it last that. So noticed it shows a tab on the map for sample out of date?

I saw FSClubs video and while he was taking samples of the field, dark red circles appeared around his vehicle on the mini-map.
So, easy to see where he’s been.

When I tried taking samples on PS4 though, no dark red circle appeared around my vehicle.
I had to jump back into the big map to see where I’ve been. Not so handy.

Is there an option somewhere where you can change what you see in the mini-map?
Cause it does show yields atm.

Looking forward to seeing what else gets added by Giants in the (hopefully) near future. Thanks Giants :-)

So this DLC has totally screwed up the map being able to see where you have fertilized or weeded for contracts. This is very counterproductive to what this is supposed to be doing. When i'm doing a contract I should be able to see the area change to the light blue or dark blue on the map. If not getting a automatic adjustment for the fertilizer is fine since i don't own the land. But, it should still work as it did for contracts.

try in the tab that the dlc added there is an option to show/hide just like there is for showing crop's but not sure if it would effect mini map as it showed up on it fine when i did it on xb.

Weird. Maybe a bug?
Mine shows yield. Probably because I started harvesting the field next to it

I find this interesting. Especially all the little quirks with machinery. May give this a go on an American map.
