Farm Simulator Modding Tips/Tricks/Information

I wanted a place to record some of the sources of information as I started my way down the modding and editing route that I found hard to find or buried in other documentation.

Where possible I will be linking to the original source location

I expect this to be a living list as I learn more.


Fill Type and Capacities

One of the first edits I started doing was to capacity and type there are two areas to look for in the configuration XML’s

In the <fillUnit> block there are two areas to modify

fillTypeCategories =”x” – This is the type of material that the item can store I found this great reference guide here. While it is in German it was helpful.

The next one that I often modify is.

capacity=”x”
This is capacity in liters

emptySpeed=”x”
This is in the dischargeable block it is the empty speed in liters per second. I usually scale this in proportion to the capacity so the total unload time is the same.



More to come in the future!
