No other farm sim content provider explains things the way you do. Like leaving the edit mode active and the huds visible so you can see what’s taking place. Your tutorials make is very easy to use the mod you are showing. I have always had the auto drive menu on the combine set on unload combine to communicate with the grain cart. I always experienced issues. I going to try the Drive menu on the combine instead. Like I’ve said before I always learn something. Thanks FSG.

[@tractorfixrable]

Thank you for sharing. What I do is have the truck and grain cart in opposite directions. This way you can have several trucks lined up ready to load. When a truck is loaded the next one moves up and the grain cart can also move before it hits the trigger

[@richardhall938]

Thank you very much for detailed guide i always wondered how to do this

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Glad it helped

[@DancerOfClouds]

FSG, I am sure it was you that demo’ed using Course Play to run the Auger Wagon and auto detect the location of the trucks. I used to use Autodrive like this. The only short coming using CoursePlay to control the AugerWagon, is that there is no PreCall for the Combine. The advantage is that I can park the trucks anywhere in the field if I choose (or not). Great video and you make excellent tutorials and I might have to give Autodrive another try.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Yeah I’ve tried the courseplay alternative and it does have its pluses, but on the whole I think I still prefer Autodrive for the auger wagon. I think it’s a little less taxing on your processor and frame rate too

I didn't know the multi hopper dumping/unloading was working proper now. I have avoided using them for forever because it used to be so bad. Good to see.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Yeah it’s vastly improved from FS19

[@MrPupsi]

I changed my unloading approach for a while now. I simply use 1 course/waiting point and let autodrive do the driving. But when he comes to his waiting point, he switches to Courseplay and i let handle courseplay the unloading (in case u use a simple trailer). When hes full he switches back to Autodrive, he unloads and then all starts over. If i want to use an Auger wagon, its even simpler. I let the Autodrive handle the driving again and only use 1 course. He waits there and than i start an courseplay auger wagon on my field. Courseplay will handle all itself. Unloading the combine and then loading everything to the nearest waiting trailer from the auger wagon. No need for a lot of extra Autodrive courses and way too many extra field points :D

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Interesting might have to try that out, so you have it switch over to courseplay from Autodrive when it arrives at the field?

[@MrPupsi]

@@TheFarmSimGuy yea, if I want to unload the combine with the same tractor and no auger wagon. Just make sure to at least choose the correct field in courseplay once so he knows where to look for a combine. It's pretty simple. All in all I have the impression that the CP combine communicates better with a CP unloader. AD makes stupid maneuvers sometimes, like driving in front of the combine or waiting in stupid places. Pathfinding is also weird sometimes.

[@michaelbest37]

These need to come to consoles( I know they won’t) but it’s wishful thinking. Would make things easier and nicer for players who play solo or don’t have many to play with.

[@davidnemeth6481]

If you right click instead of left click you can create biderictional lines. This is especially handy if you have a very narrow area, for example between fields. Although I recommend having silo loading or unloading single directional becasue your AI just could come to the waypoint from the other side.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Yes correct

Thank you very much, the map is called Chilliwack and it's available here chumpy-farmer.itch.io/chilliwack-4x-map 👍

[@vortex_g1460]

I think Auger wagons should have a special mode where you can have 3 Waypoints. Pre-unload, unloading and waiting. The issue is when you have multiple auger wagons they can jam up on the "auger wait" waypoint. Because as 1 wagon is sitting waiting for a call a full one will come in and try to go to the same waypoint so that it can unlaod. I can't tell you how many times I've had a jam on his waypoint. The point of having 3 would be so the full augers will have an open waypoint, can get to unloading sooner and not get jammed with the wagons waiting for the call.

[@fotisim]

Thanks!

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

You are a legend thanks so much for the support, I really appreciate it

[@R8shabt]

I hope you might know the answer to my questien. When the Field is finshed and the combine has completed the Couseplay course. The Autodrive Trailer wont move and will just stand still and "wait for call" so i have to press continue for it move on. Should't it see that the field is done and move to next point?

[@peterclarke3300]

Great tutorial FSG and very well explained and great content as always a quick question, I haven’t seen this but I might be missing something but is the a setting in course play to switch off collisions off, I think there’s one on auto drive but not course play it’s just something I read somewhere and always forget to ask and keep up with the great content 👏👏👍👍⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

[@chrisranes7964]

Great refresher video, thank you! One question, you mentioned you try to never cross course paths unless it's absolutely necessary. What is you are playing a map with an AutoDrive Guy course loaded. Should I go ahead and create an AD course for the truck, and run it directly to the silo unload point, even though it may cross the course created by AutoDrive Guy? Or should I create a course from the field to the road, and then connect it up to AutoDrive Guy's course? That part I'm not 100% clear on. Thank you!

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

I would create a path that comes off the Autodrive course and when you come back, rejoin the loaded course, it should keep things neater and cause you less issues in the future 👍

[@bbigcnote]

First thanks for these videos i have been really enjoying and learning fr9m your videos. But I have Question. If you wanted to run two grain carts can you put them on the same auger unload loop?. I am going to run to combines and want 2 carts to chase them.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Hi, yes you sure can, the second auger wagon will just queue behind the first one. it sometimes can cause the odd collision though, so you could try setting up two separate wait points and attribute one to each combine (I tend to do this) it means that you'll have one cart dedicated to one combine, but they still both funnel into the same unload point. (actually I could do a vid on this, if that would help?)

[@juaaniis2796]

wow great video. As a complete beginner this was really easy to understand. Just one thing, when my auger wagon is full the autodrive just drives across the field, is there any way to avoid destroying the crops? without using disable the destroy crop in settings. Thanks

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

You can create an Autodrive loop around the edge of the field that takes you back to your wait point, then set you exit point in the menu to “nearest” and it should follow the field loop out rather that driving across the field.

[@cbrown596]

Can a this be utilized with two trucks by placing them in two separate 'Truck Wait' points and having them one in front of the other? I would assume the Auger would empty into which ever truck it encounters on its path to 'Auger Wait' correct?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Correct, I would still use 1 wait point and just let the trucks queue. Another thing if you want to load 2 trucks is have the auger wagon run in the opposite direction to the trucks so it always unloads into the first truck 👍

[@oldcornerSE]

Did not read all the previous comments but didn´t the "restrict to field" option for the tractor create the problem where the combiner would have to reverse back into the field before unloading? Great video btw!

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

No the combine does that automatically if it’s at the edge of a field, or in the middle of a row with no space to allow a tractor alongside

[@oldcornerSE]

so, just wondering, is there any particular reason to not set pre-call as low as possible? so loader can just always be waiting? or does it negatively effect performance or possibly get in the way or something?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Potentially you could end up with a few trailers fighting over the same combine, but no, there's no real reason for how low you go

[@farmerjimmy7453]

Fantastic video can i do the auger unload with courseplay also ? If so which is better Ad or cp for this job and reasons why

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

You can use Courseplay too, but the two main reasons I prefer Autodrive are that the tractor doesn't trail the combine when it's waiting to fill so can end up on the other side of the field leading to a longer wait to unload. and secondly it's more intensive on the computer, AD seems to use less computer power to do the same job.

[@MarkLynskey]

Will this method work for doing silage with the Hawe chaser unit or the Beet overloader?

[@MrChukx]

Is it possible to let the auger wagon unload straight into the silo (of course if the silo was close to the field)?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Yes absolutely, you'd just need to adjustyour course so the auger pipe was over the grate. Also be careful some silos the trigger is quite low so it might not pickup the higher auger pipe, but in most intances it should work well

[@RareThunder-gu2vd]

does auto drive work well with modded tractors/ trucks and trailers or no just curious bcuz i was thinkin of starting up a new save w/ auto drive and cp and some other mods

[@Druac]

Thanks for all the great videos FSG! I can’t imagine playing this game without these two mods…I like to run large equipment on large maps and lots of it at the same time…and I like to do it solo. There are times I have 5 or 6 courses running with different contract jobs while still working my own fields and animals at the same time. These mods have spoiled me…can’t stand standard sized maps or vanilla play…4x maps only…and 90% mods…base game is boring.

[@Zombie_King93]

Does this principle still apply the same way if i run one grain cart to two combines?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Yes it should, you can have issues with it randoml deciding which combine to go to which means you can sometimes have a full combine sitting and waiting for a while. I tend to go with two carts and two combines for ease

[@mlx39996]

29:20 what if the front hopper fills up before the auger wagon is emptied? then everything gets stuck, doesn’t it?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Potentially yea but I don’t see it happening that often (in fact I can’t ever remember a time when it has) as always with AD it’s not completely possible to cover all eventualities but you may need to babysit or check it every now and again

[@user-bx6il3hw8h]

Will AD & CP work like this while running 2 single hopper trailers in a train?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

I've not tested it, but in porinciple the answer is yes, it should treat them no more differently than it would a dual hopper trailer, as long as your stop point is far enough past the first trailer

[@Bnagel2808]

What do I do if my wagon stops before the semi because it thinks it will crash ? Even though when making course it does not .

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Sounds like you have your course a little too close to the semi, move your nodes a little further away and it should then work 👍

[@Miketeg83]

Thanks for the videos. I'm struggling to have AD emptying when I'm driving the combine. AD found me and drive, but then stop, reverse, re-go forward, stop..think for 30-45 seconds, restart....etc. I can take as long as 3 minutes for AD to find my combine and the worst...sometimes it will find it, then I start dumping, and around the 50% mark of my combine unload, AD will reverse and stop...for no reason... That's so annoying 🤣

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

If it's a big field you sometimes need to run a two way loop around the outside of the field and change the exit point in the settings, to nearest point. It's basically too far from the course to be able to work out a route.

I'm going to persist some more but really struggling to get CP and AD to play nice together. A simple tractor-and-trailer to silo offloading a combine often has the tractor and combine playing this weird standoff dance where the combine creeps towards the tractor and the tractor keeps backing off. When they do get together, the tractor allows a few seconds of grain to offload and then drives away from the combine to sit 50 yards away again. Very frustrating.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Can I suggest you try different tractors and trailers, I've had it work a lot more smoothly with some mods than others. I've been where you are, it's very annoying. The other thing that helps is turning off collisions and ensuring your combine has the longest pipe possible, there could be an issue where the tractor is detecting the combine as a collision and avoiding getting too close to it, the longer pipe should help mitigate this

do you know how you can delete ither 1 node or multiple at once? e.g a full turn?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Alt and left mouse button removes a node, there isn’t a group delete function, you have to do them one by one

[@hiltonnewman9495]

ah thanks a lot... are you able to get the tractor to unload from the combine if you are driving it without course play on?@@TheFarmSimGuy

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

@@hiltonnewman9495 Yes, exactly the same process as if couseplay was running the combine, just set the wait point on Autodrive in the combine, and every time you open the auger pipe the tractor will come and find you.

Just google Autodrive FS22 and download from GutHub and drop it into your mods folder and make sure you activate it in game

No unfortunately not

My problem was the ad driver doesnt move out of the way for the cp driver…

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

If you give it some time the AD driver should recalculate his course. (alternatively you can check that "Avoid Collisions' is turned on in the settings

[@NiCk-zd2fs]

@@TheFarmSimGuy ohh okay thank you

[@mistergamerguy]

I would think AD would conflict with courseplay.... its why I haven't messed with auto drive

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

No they tend to work very well together

[@3verland]

I wish the authors of CP would go back to allowing vehicles routes to be created, and unloader vehicles to work with combines. One thing that is a fact, in 17 and 19 when CP was used to unload vehicles, a tractor or truck responded much faster than what AD does now. Half the time AD acts like its confused, and has a hard time getting lined up on the right track to unload. Then by the time it figures it out, it makes a made dash for the combine only to have to stop because the combine has reached the end of the field. It doesn't matter if I have my combine set to call at 50, 60% ect, most of the time my tractor / trailer spends all the time running after the combine, never catching it, and most of the time don't unload until the combine is full, and has come to a stop. I can't seem to get AD authors to do anything about this, its been like this since the launch of 22.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

CP has now got the unload feature again since the last big update 👍

[@3verland]

I have not used that feature in so long, I don't think I even remember how, and chance you could do a short tutorial? In 19 you were actually creating an unload point to a parked trailer or truck, I don't believe CP unloading a combine works the same as it did in 17 and 19@@TheFarmSimGuy

[@RS-cw3oy]

Why haven't they incorporated this into the base game yet?

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

It's too processor intensive for older cosoles

[@misaman524]

Problem with this setup is if you want to use several tractors&auger wagons/trucks/tractor&trailer combinations which is for big fields neccessary Especially diferent types like Bergmann & Demco they have different auger pipes and you can clearly see that Demco after filling that truck will not unload because its pipe will be way too forward above the cabin of that truck. So with both types unloading on this course you have to babysit that. If you making tutorials for 70k people who might see it please do it right. Only way how you can "automate" with AD is to have courses with trucks/tractors&trailers one way and auger wagons opposite direction that will not cause problems when you fill up truck/trailer and using several different types of augers.... Strange that I have not seen any comment who knows it....

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Because the majority of the time if you are thinking of automating you are likely using the same auger wagons rather than a variety of different ones to avoid that exact issue. If you have made yourself the spokesperson on behalf of 70k people you might want to ask yourself why you are the only one that’s raised this. If you’d framed your question in a more inquisitive manner rather than suggesting it’s not right I might be more inclined to respond politely. Try being better

[@fmo94jos8v3]

My problem with Course Play and AutoDrive is they don't work. Course Play AI is just as stupid (even stupider) than the regular AI. Instead of stopping and turning around, the AI decides to go in reverse and jackknife the trailer. Both course play and auto drive break immersion. The in game AI at least does not break immersion, as you drive onto the field then hire the worker without waypoints all over the field. The problem with courseplay and autodrive is they rely on waypoints, and the only way to debug the course is to keep waypoints visible which breaks immersion. This game is so broken I am pissed I paid over $100 for the base game and season 2 DLC pass. I am at the point I might just give up, and either go back to PureFarming where the AI is bad but at least works. The modders seem to be non-existant when it comes to AI not one of them has made a mod to fix the AI. This is why relying on modders to finish the game is a terrible idea, because in this case they did not finish the game - it's still broken beyond playability.

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

It's all in the setup, they both work exceptionally well if setup properly, every time Course play has messed up for me is because I set it up badly not because courseplay did something wrong.

[@Oldironfarming]

I do agree I have to fix augur wagons almost 4-10 times in a feild bout that’s about it

Not really, this is how you set up the mods to work together

[@SirAser.F__k.you.Google]

One question. When the auger filled up the trailer ..why did the auger not drive back into wait-position, to serve the harvester when full(instead of just waiting for the trailers return)? Let's say the trailer have a long run to droppoint and therefor the auger will just wait for a long time for the truck, ending up stopping the harvest, because the harvester is full and then stops ..because the auger will not leave it's droppoint, before it fully emptied into the trailer?? Can this be solved? ..or do I need top run double augers, to get around this? ..and how do you do that ..make either two trucks, or two augers, to work seemingly together without getting in each others way??

[@TheFarmSimGuy]

Because the auger wasn’t empty. You could stack the trucks to avoid that issue, but it’s not one I’ve ever really had an issue with
