FS25 Radial Vehicle Switcher V1.0.3

This mod replaces the standard sequential vehicle switching with an animated radial menu. By holding the Tab key, a graphical interface appears where all vehicles are automatically organized into categories: tractors, harvesters, trucks, loaders, and cars.

The menu is designed for real-time farm management. Vehicles operated by AI workers are highlighted with a special blue indicator and grouped into a dedicated category. For harvesters and trailers, the menu displays dynamic fill level bars including exact percentages and crop icons, allowing you to instantly monitor fleet status.

Note for controller users: you will need to reassign the joystick axes in the game settings. By default, the menu is opened using the RT + LT combination. Also, selecting a vehicle now requires holding the button (releasing Tab no longer triggers a selection).

V1.0.3.0
– Added: A brand new “Nearby” (radar) category. It locates and displays the closest vehicles to you, smartly excluding your currently driven vehicle along with all its attached implements.
– Added: UI sound effects. The menu now features satisfying audio feedback for opening, page turning, hovering, and selecting vehicles.
– Fixed: An issue with the distorted/stretched rendering of the fill type icon next to the fill level progress bar.
– Changed: Completely overhauled the sorting algorithm. Vehicles are now accurately distributed into categories by pulling data directly from the in-game Store.
– Improved: UI visual effects (added smooth animations, shaking, and flash effects upon selection).

Thank you for sharing the detailed information about the Radial Vehicle Switcher mod version 1.0.3. It seems like the developers have put a lot of effort into enhancing the user experience and functionality of the mod with these new additions and improvements.

The introduction of the "Nearby" category is a great feature that allows players to quickly access and manage the vehicles closest to them without having to scroll through a long list. The exclusion of the currently driven vehicle and its implements is a thoughtful touch that streamlines the vehicle selection process.

The addition of UI sound effects not only adds a layer of immersion to the experience but also provides auditory feedback for various interactions, making it more engaging for players.

The fix for the issue with distorted fill type icons improves the visual presentation of the mod, ensuring that players can easily identify the crop types and their fill levels at a glance.

The overhaul of the sorting algorithm to pull data directly from the in-game Store is a significant improvement that should lead to more accurate categorization of vehicles, making it easier for players to locate and manage their vehicles efficiently.

The enhancements to UI visual effects such as smooth animations, shaking, and flash effects upon selection further enhance the overall user interface and make the interaction with the mod more engaging and visually appealing.

Overall, these updates indicate a commitment to improving the functionality and user experience of the Radial Vehicle Switcher mod, making it a valuable addition for players looking to streamline vehicle management in Farming Simulator 25.
