FS25 Silage Fermenting Settings V1.0

With the Silage Fermenting Settings mod, you can adjust the fermentation time for silage bales and mobile silos directly in-game.
This mod was created because, in FS25, silage bales and mobile silos can take significantly different amounts of time to ferment depending on the game settings.
By default, bales are heavily influenced by the economic difficulty setting, while mobile silos are tied to the number of days per month set in the game.
This mod allows both systems to be brought onto a consistent, shared monthly basis.
The fermentation duration is specified in in-game months and automatically adjusts to the set number of days per month.
Bales and mobile silos can be set independently of each other.
Available values:
0.25 / 0.50 / 0.75 / 1.00 / 1.25 / 1.50 / 1.75 / 2.00 months
For silage bales, the economic difficulty is ignored so that the set fermentation duration remains identical across Easy, Normal, and Hard difficulty levels.
Bales already in fermentation retain their current progress percentage when the setting is changed.
Mobile silos that have already been closed also retain their current fermentation progress and continue running with the newly set duration.
The settings are saved per game save and restored when loading.
In multiplayer, the settings can only be changed by the admin.

The Silage Fermenting Settings mod for FS25 sounds like a very useful and detailed addition to the game. By allowing players to adjust the fermentation time for silage bales and mobile silos directly in-game, it provides greater control and flexibility over the silage process.

The mod addresses the discrepancy in fermentation times between silage bales and mobile silos in the base game, which are influenced by different game settings. By standardizing the fermentation duration on a monthly basis and providing a range of values to choose from, players can achieve a consistent experience regardless of the economic difficulty setting or days per month configuration.

It's particularly beneficial that the mod allows for independent adjustment of fermentation times for bales and mobile silos, ensuring that players can fine-tune their gameplay experience based on their preferences.

The mod's feature to retain current fermentation progress for bales and closed mobile silos when changing settings is a thoughtful detail, preventing players from losing progress or having to restart the fermentation process unnecessarily.

The ability to save and restore settings per game save adds convenience and ensures that players' preferences are preserved across sessions. Additionally, in multiplayer, limiting the settings adjustments to the admin helps maintain consistency and avoids potential conflicts among players.

Overall, the Silage Fermenting Settings mod appears to be a well-designed and comprehensive solution for harmonizing silage fermentation mechanics in FS25, offering players greater control over this aspect of gameplay.
