With today’s update v0.1.5.0 we have further improved the steering and added support for established head tracking systems which transfer your head movement into a very realistic camera feeling in the vehicle cabins.
Besides some bug fixes we have also attended the usability of the task system: from now on you can reuse created tasks for your workers by saving or copying them as templates. This is especially useful when you want to cultivate multiple fields in a row. Just copy the first task, change the field, the time or the vehicle/trailer combination as you please and it’s on!
We’re looking forward to your feedback on the subject in our forum.
At the same time we are working on the combine update, which brings you, apart from multiple crop sorts, a combine, as well as a seeding unit for the Hammer CornKing. At the moment we are researching a very promising, physics based solution for the loading and unloading of our 3-side-tipper. We are confident that this system could also be a part of our “Move That Mountain” stretch goal – and it is honestly quite sexy – so we decided to take a bit more time for this update.
Please check out all the changes, bug fixes and news in our changelog, as always.
We hope you have a nice weekend and fun testing!

Multiple fields in one task: several fields can be added, they are then cultivated consecutively
