FS25 Real Fuel Consumption V1.3

Real Fuel Consumption turns your farm’s fuel usage into something realistic and challenging.
Unlike other mods that just multiply consumption by a fixed number, this mod uses a dynamic system that reads each vehicle’s real state in real-time.
How it works:
Base Multiplier configurable from 1.0x to 3.0x (default 1.5x)
Load Bonus — the engine consumes more when under real stress: climbing hills, pulling heavy implements, towing loads
Work Type Bonus — each task consumes differently, just like real life:
Plowing / Cultivating: +40%
Harvesting: +35%
Baling: +25%
Mowing / Tedding: +20%
Spraying / Fertilizing: +15%
Sowing: +10%
RPM Sensitivity — higher engine RPM means more consumption
Features:
All options configured from the Game Settings menu (ESC), no commands or weird keys
Compatible with ALL vehicles and mods
Multiplayer compatible and Dedicated Server
Saves your settings per savegame
Tip: For balanced realism use 1.5x. For a hardcore challenge, go up to 2.5x or 3.0x with Load Sensitivity set to High.
Made with passion for realistic farming simulation.

Critical Fix: Fuel Consumption and Top Speed in Power Mode
A background bug was found and fixed: Power Mode was modifying an internal engine value that the game also uses to calculate real-world fuel consumption and, in some vehicles, top speed. Since each vehicle has its own RPM range, the effect varied some consumed half the expected fuel, others much more, and some vehicles had their top speed reduced for no apparent reason.
Completely Redesigned HUD
The generic colored circle has been replaced with a professional icon system, integrated into the game’s native speedometer:
ECO green leaf
STD gray speedometer (formerly “Normal”, renamed “Standard” throughout the mod to sound more like a real dashboard)
POWER red lightning bolt
Each icon has its 3-letter code underneath (ECO/STD/PWR), in the same color, for a third layer of distinction in addition to shape and color also intended for those who have difficulty distinguishing colors. All of this is positioned right next to the game’s speedometer. The fuel consumption indicator (X.X l/h) has also been moved: it now appears next to the fuel icon already included in the game.
Previously, the selected mode (Eco/Standard/Power) would revert to “Standard” every time you loaded a saved game. This has now been fixed.
Thanks to everyone who tried the mod!
