[NO BUG] sinking in chaff when compacting (dedicated multiplayer server)

Post by hjvg »

- PC/Mac/PS4/XB1: PC
- Vehicle/Tool/Model/Object: all verichels
- Issue: when driving on kaf the tractor sinks still a bit to far in the chaff (its better then in 1.2 but its still better in fs 17)
- Single- or Multiplayer: dedicated multiplayer server
- Steps to reproduce: make silage bunker full and start driving over it
- Does it happen on a standard map without mods yes/no yes

link to the old bug report: viewtopic.php?f=965&t=144046

why is sinking in the chaff a problem? because the mess board is not getting high eneugh if the top of the chaff is at max level and you brake or steering it makes holes in it as it picks up the chaff again.
also it will almost not drop the chaff on the slope because the mess board is not that high and it thinks its still in the chaff.


tractors do not sink in the silage then they stay on top of it

This is the normal/expected behavior for driving on large amounts of chaff. Visually the tractor will slightly clip through the fillplane to simulate the tractor "sinking in" ;)

yea the sinking is mebay not the real problem but because of the sinking we are not able to get the mes 500 really free from the chaff because the lift of the mes is not that high.

so because the sinking in its verry hard to use a tractor with the mess 500.

i think the isseu would be able to be fixed if the top link can go more in (get shorter) as it can do now (so you can pull it a bit more up)

You can't "unload" the chaff on the top of the silage pile, because there is a fixed maximum height due to memory limitation. It has nothing to do with that you can't lift the leveler higher.

i know that but because its so close to the top it will somtimes pick up chaff when you brake or make a turn witch results in holes in the chaff at the top.

also because the limmeted lift function it wil not drop fast on the slope as you can see in the video from 1:15 everytime you pick up chaff and drive back again you only can make the slope longer as it wond drop all bevore you are at the end of the slope
