Silo Fill Planes

Did Giants stop using animated fill planes in silos? for example, the slurry bin in the FS13 had fill a fill plane as did root crop storage halls.

Im wanting to make an animated silo for wool and cotton but cannot find a good example. I've learned a lot of the nuances of placeables (e.g. saveID, etc.) but i'm not finding any good examples of animating objects based on fill data vs. control triggers.

Currently playing around FS19.

Any insight or direction will be greatly appreciated.

The large automated cattle barn has what I think you are talking about.

Basegame cattle barn? Or someone's mod? I looked at the straw plane in the basegame cow husbandry and saw the placeable type is husbandry while silos are silos and then saw the straw plane within the husbandry specializations so i figured it may not translate over into the storage specialization. didnt want to waste a bunch of time trial/error'g this one out.

am thinking it will take a script if i cannot figure out how to make custom placeable type like we can make custom vehicle types.
