FS25 Forestry Helper v1.0.0.5

This mod displays helpful information for logs and helps with cutting to desired lengths or weights.

Changelog:
1.0.0.5:
– Fixed an issue where the length indicator would never be shown on very thick logs
– Added french translation provided by Shi974
– Added brazilian translation provided by Myiamoto86
– Fixed a mod conflict which would spam the log
– Fixed an issue where the info box would display mismatching labels and values sometimes

1.0.0.1:
– Fixed a client freeze which could occur in multiplayer if the client still had a reference to a tree which no longer exists.

You can use the hotkeys displayed in the F1 menu in order to switch between length and weight modes, and in order to select the target length/weight.
Note that the while the length mode is exact, the weight mode is just an approximation. The weight mode is not available in multiplayer.

The chainsaw will snap to the indicated location once within 20cm. The angle still has to be adjusted manually, however.

The help window displays information which can help with deciding whether or not felling a tree or cutting it down further is worth it.

Note that in order to get the maximum quality possible in base game (which is 120%), a piece of wood needs to be a near perfect frustum of a cone, between 6-11m in length (about 20-36 feet) and may not have any branches still attached.
It isn’t always possible to achieve the maximum quality.

Realism players may also add an absolute or relative additional length buffer to the cut indication length in the general settings.

This mod is of course compatible with the lumberjack mod.

Hotkeys:
[ C ] Switches between length mode and weight mode, or turns this feature off.
[ Z ] Cycles through the possible target lengths and weights.

Thank you for sharing the detailed changelog and information about the Forestry Helper mod version 1.0.0.5. It's great to see the addition of French and Brazilian translations, as well as the fixes to various issues and conflicts. The feature of switching between length and weight modes using hotkeys [C] and selecting target lengths/weights using hotkey [Z] seems very convenient.

The information about achieving maximum quality in the base game by having a piece of wood within certain dimensions and without branches attached is useful for players aiming for optimal results. The additional length buffer option for realism players in the general settings also adds a customization aspect to the mod.

The functionality of the chainsaw snapping to the indicated location once within 20cm brings efficiency to tree cutting, while the manual adjustment of the angle maintains a level of control and immersion.

The help window providing information to assist players in decision-making regarding felling or further cutting trees is a nice touch, adding to the overall usability of the mod.

The compatibility with the lumberjack mod is a great feature for players looking to enhance their forestry experience in the game.

Overall, the mod seems to offer a comprehensive set of features and improvements that enhance the forestry gameplay experience in FS25. Keep up the good work in providing detailed information and features for players using this mod.
