What is one feature you wish farming simulator had?

A search function on the mod selection page before starting your map

So you can download mods straight from the selection screen and they would automatically appear in the selection screen after they downloaded. Just have a little refresh button as well!!

That would be good. It would mean moving the download and install code into the game from the menu, I'm guessing that the split is for resource management, but these days the various platforms are increasing in capability.

I do like the new mod screen layout, i seems easier to look along the rows of mods to see which ones I want selected in a particular savegame.

GPS for consoles. TBH I’d be quite happy with just an option to lock a vehicle to a heading so that I can plough straight!

After some thinking what effects me most on PS5:

Controller configuration (inner dead zone, sensitivity). After playing 12 years on PS, the current option 50 to 200% is the worst controller config I've ever seen.

I would love to see more Animals. And sounds unless me I have not heard a single Bird sing in Calmsden.

Geographical data enabling for weather and crops so you can set your maps up to wherever you want without it being the French Riviera in January in the Midwest by default.

Crop circles, because we all know those are real don't we?

Joking aside, what I really want is dynamic pastures, pick any grass-field and fence it off and your animals can graze there.

That is something You wish Calmsden had. Try some other maps, i added bird sounds to my map and can hear them.

I agree. I’ll add, a menu to customize crop calendars and GEO. Something you can maybe plug in your average, minimum and maximums into each month for temperatures, precipitation, etc. so the game can give you a nice randomized range of weather and conditions suitable for your preferred location (of course, with the option to reset to default so you don’t permanently screw up your weather).

drop all this production stuff and do more real farming

Actually there is a mod for this API and is awesome!

Good answers so far. I'd like to add some better in-cab features like working monitors and/or an API available to modders to make working monitors on external devices like tablets. Also more in-cab camera options like the ability to lean to the side or look down the back so you don't have to leave in cab view for various things.

Multiple saves. Most of the time it’s not an issue. However, there have been times a slightly older save would have, well, saved my ****.

There are backup saveGames on PC, of course if you're on console that might not help.
