Just loaded up a clean map to have a play with CoursePlay and at last I can use workers on weird shaped fields again. Thank you for your great and speedy work so far.

On thing I missed on the original version which I'm not sure it's possible, or even wanted, is the ability to start a field path with a buffer zone around the field. The reason being a lot of the after market maps cam with fence posts or trees close to the field edges, especially a problem with wider implements or front mowers as they often foul them and stop the worker. If you could offset the field edge when calculating the path inwards by a metre or two the worker could do the work and then you could clean up afterwards.

Set the worker to do a headland first gordon, and that will accomplish what you want.

No it doesn't because some of the modded maps the fields are so tight that front implements hit the post.

I never used courseplay in 17 but just trying it with 19. When I set a field to seed it does the first row, stops then goes backwards and turns right into the next row? How do I set it so it drives off the field does a full turn and lined up for the next row? I don’t know if it’s because of the size of the seeder? As I tried it with a 3m and it done what you’d expect it to do. Any help would be appreciated.

Great timing, i just wanted to make a break from FS19 to wait for courseplay.

I just noticed i can use my previously made FS17 Estancia Lapacho courses now in FS19.
I tested few out and they are working fine.

There is a setting where you tell Courseplay to not turn in the field - click that option off and it will go beyond the field edge and then turn around. If the field is irregular, I encourage you to do a couple of "headlands" first..

You should be able to do multiple headlands to give yourself room. In 17 you could set it for up to 6 i think
No some field boundary are so tight to the field edge that the front mowers crash into the edges when it turns whilst following the edge.

Very sad, when I put courseplay beta in my mods folder and then try and load a map it just sits there loading endlessly but never actually gets anywhere. Going to see if it's a mod conflict.

Unzip the folder you downloaded, and open it. If there is only a single folder inside, open the folder to reveal a long list of files. Select all of those files and zip them into a folder. Take the newly zipped folder and put it in the mods folder.

Your file structure probably looks like: Courseplay.zip->Courseplay->bunch of files. When it should be: Courseplay.zip->bunch of files.

What trailer are you using?

Mod files don't need to be zipped, you can just keep a folder there for every mod.

I always unzip my mods for ease of any changes.
It seems that all in game trailers work fine but none of my modded ones.....hmmmm 🤔

It was a mod conflict as I suspected.
