FS25 Realistic Harvesting V1.4.3.1

What does this mod do?
This mod completely overhauls the harvesting mechanics in Farming Simulator 25! Your combine will no longer be able to unrealistically harvest at full speed in dense crops without consequences. The harvesting speed and efficiency are now dynamically tied to the thresher load and your machine’s calibration.
Key Features:
Realistic Load Calculation: The denser the crop and the wider the header, the slower the combine moves. Overload the engine, and you will begin to physically lose yield!
Interactive Combine Calibration (NEW): Press `RShift + K` to open the Combine Settings menu! You must calibrate your Fan, Rotor, Sieves, and Feeder for each specific crop type. Poor settings will result in additional crop loss!
Global Crop Profiles (NEW): Save your perfectly tuned calibration profiles globally. Switch combines or rejoin the server, and your favorite settings for Wheat, Corn, or Soybeans are instantly applied.
Dynamic Yield & Info HUD: A customizable, draggable display showing real-time Engine Load, Productivity (T/h), Crop Loss %, and Yield (t/ha or bu/ac).
Physical Crop Loss System: Pushing the combine past 95% engine load or using suboptimal threshing settings will physically reduce the volume of grain entering your bunker. Drive smart, not fast!
Difficulty Modes: Choose your playstyle in the game settings (ESC -> settings tab):
– Arcade: Minimal speed restrictions. For relaxed gameplay.
– Normal: Balanced experience. You will feel the weight of heavy crops like corn or wheat, with forgiving loss penalties.
– Realistic: For simulation fans. Speed and crop loss are strictly tied to the combine’s physical capacity and your manual calibration settings.

This mod for Farming Simulator 25 completely transforms the harvesting mechanics to be more realistic and challenging. Some of the key features of this mod include:

1. Realistic Load Calculation: The speed and efficiency of your combine are now based on the thresher load and the calibration of your machine. As crops get denser and the header wider, the combine will move slower. Overloading the engine can result in physical yield loss.

2. Interactive Combine Calibration: You can open the Combine Settings menu by pressing `RShift + K` to calibrate your Fan, Rotor, Sieves, and Feeder for each specific crop type. Poor calibration settings can lead to additional crop loss.

3. Global Crop Profiles: You can save your calibration profiles globally, making it easier to switch combines or rejoin the server with your preferred settings for different crop types.

4. Dynamic Yield & Info HUD: A customizable HUD displays real-time information such as Engine Load, Productivity, Crop Loss %, and Yield.

5. Physical Crop Loss System: Exceeding 95% engine load or using suboptimal threshing settings can physically reduce the amount of grain entering your bunker, promoting a more strategic approach to harvesting.

6. Difficulty Modes: Players can choose between Arcade, Normal, and Realistic modes to tailor the gameplay experience to their preferences.

Version 1.4.3.1 of the mod addressed an error related to saving the game. Overall, this mod aims to provide a more realistic and engaging harvesting experience in Farming Simulator 25.
