How does the soil compacting work in 17

Gubler

GCV sawmill, where do I unload the wood chips? I know where the log drop off is, and the water drop off, but don't see any marked off area for wood chips. Have 59k worth and don't want to dump them on the ground, then have to shovel them somewhere else.

Round the otherside of the building to the log sales. It looks like a big manure pile but it is infact woodchios.

Okay, thank you much.

how do you know when to use a weight and how big of a weight? so far all my tractors seem to handle things fine

For the most part they do but if you are driving and the front of the tractor feels very light with say a plow on the back then you need to add a weight. It's mostly trial and error.

Hey Guys, I have a question about workers. I have noticed some times my bank account slowly drains when a hire workers and then sometimes wages come out in lump sums. I believe I have turned off all auto seed purchases etc. any ideas

Well, it could be your daily maintenance cost, on fs15 you'd buy a tractor at a certain time, the next day at that same time, it'll take out the money, im not 100% sure if thats the same in fs17, but i assume that will be the case.

I thought all costs like that came out at midnight on fs15 as well.

I think the hourly thing is just a summary of what the wages were. I don't think it gets deducted a second time.

I am playing on xbox one and for some reason whenever I upload a new town/map in the mods section it wont bring me there. it says that the mod has been uploaded but it wont let me get there. All of the other mods seem to work.

Thank you.

how can you tell which trailers are able to attach to other trailers before you buy? if u can

are there any trailers wide enough to haul combines?

1st question, you cant, if you played fs15, you would know which trailers have an additional hitch, 2nd question, there might be mods out there, but the vanilla game trailers no.

I downloaded FS 17 and went to the 1st tutorial and when the 1st tutorial loaded my viewer was going around counter clockwise as if I was turning in a circle and will not stop.

Can i link the combine with anything to add functionality somehow?

The first thing i tried to link with the combine was a Auger wagon, thinking it would basically act like an extension of the combines internal storage and feeding directly into it while i harvested. Nope.

Next i tried things like loading wagons to pick up the straw as i harvested the wheat, that didint seem to work.

Is anything like this possible? I know about the follow me mod, but id like to find an alternative to that and think things together.

The biggest combine, someone said you can harvest and bale at the same time, dk if they did this for fs17.
