[WON'T FIX] Loader Tools Issue

Platform: PC
Object: All fillable loader tools
Issue: only fills to 99 percent capacity
game mode: Single player
Reproduction steps: Go fill a loader tool with material.
I'm not sure if it is a bug, or a REALLY bad feature, but when I go to fill up my loader tools, they only fill up to 99 percent. I tried to make a mod to get around this, only to find out that different fill types have different capacities, so there is no way around this, and it's incredibly frustrating. Not so nice when you want to do precision loading, such as mixing TMR, and all you can get is 99 percent. So to end: Please fix this Giants, I'm begging you.

Hi guys!
This has something to do with our tip anywhere feature and is a coding issue: This needs to be done this way - otherwise you would "loose" goods when moving/loading stuff around with your shovels.

Then could you guys please fix the fact that different fill types fill to different capacities? Then I can just mod any loader tool to have a bit more capacity, thus having an even number. Or is it possible to make a script to fix this? Please understand, that this is incredibly frustrating. And if it can't be fixed in this game, could you fix it in the code for your next game?

Farmer_S, it has to be that way. If they made it fill to 100%, you would loose crow when you moved the bucket. Lethian, couldn't you increase the capacity slightly and then keep it at 99%, so that it ends up an even number?

This is something I recommended as well and our devs are looking into it. But I don't expect this to get updated for FS17 anymore
