Giants...can we get more PTO types?

Post by Richard Dower »

Dear Giants Software, by default the base game uses a modern PTO design, would it be possible to add a few more variations to the Assets folder?

Give modders more choices, especially for old timer equipment. Or maybe a few branded PTO types from different manufacturers.

They don't have a need for it since manufacturers will tell them what they want to see and it is mostly the newer stuff since it is a big advisement for companies. Pretty much you are missing just a metal 540 pto. It wouldn't be that hard to model off the plastic guard 540 or plastic guard small 1000.

As to mere looks or functionality?

I think a lot of players would start to get confused if it became complex to match what equipment can fit what tractor, and that they explicitly want to avoid making gameplay harder here.. But categorizing them and making graphics so people can put in their own limitations are fine..

As you can see, this is no place for a Dear Giants letter. You get no answer from Giants, and only guesses from players.

Wouldn't say guesses it just manufacturers have a monopoly over Thier equipment, giants would of like to but that's down to the manufacturer

the versatile 4wd have the place to install the PTO but dont have it neither as opcional, the funny thing is that if you attach a grain cart or a manure spreader, it connect the PTO as it would do

Most of the big 4wd don't come with one on irl. It needs to be attracted. The game allows you to hook them up because it probably thinks there is one.
