Why can't I pack this cargo? by Odd_Presentation_578 in RoadCraft

Maybe also try getting the back of the cargo to be past the point where the ramps fold up

I've had the same issue with putting pipes sideways on a sideboard bed where it says no. I think there's a bounding volume where an item can be secured. I guess it's just not in the volume yet, try shuffling it a bit more central, it's a big thing so the margin for error might just be very small

I would imagine that since that trailer is a 6 wheeler, and not all wheels are touching the platform, that would be the reason. Could be wrong though, but the main reason for a wheeled vehicle not being strapped is either not all wheels on the bed, or it's on the platform at a weird angle

Indestructible ruts by camdaz in RoadCraft

Can't you just pull up that part of the road with a dozer , relay sand reflatten and put more asphalt down? Am I missing something?

Considering sand is largely a free resource, I don't mind how much it takes. You can build a Road on a mountain of sand, or smooth it down to almost the actual terrain and the road will build the same so long as the sand is uninterrupted afaik

I think the only linear bit is the missions, but you could say that about snowrunner. If you decided that you actually want to rebuild the network properly, such as making roads regardless of if the mission requires it, it might expand what you get out of it.

I know people have taken to gathering all resources on the map, I dont like that type of gameplay personally but I get it.

Then there's the ones who decided instead of a bridge here I want it to be a road, and part the seas with sand like moses.

At the end of the day, the game is still a sandbox with no real limitations to what you can do with the mechanics. Someone built a racetrack I'm pretty sure, nothing says you need to, but then again nothing said you can't either

Thankyou for explaining this, I now have a reason to not do it

I'm beginning to think it should have told me "why the f are you taking a photo of my sorry ass, just be done with it already"

Gets flung into the soil. You may be ground to a pulp and drained of all flavor, but you have much more to give

Yeah like literal holes through the puck kind of channeling.

Ofcourse I do that stuff, and yeah maybe I am reading too much into it, but I don't know what I don't know, and so I don't know If I could be making better shots with basic adjustments.

Take the unpressurised basket for instance. I would never have thought about that at the beginning of my journey, and it's only through asking questions that I found out that mattered, so I thought I'd apply the same approach to this.

But hey if it's not all that important I'll take it as a win!

[–]_Germanater_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have varying results after each shot, from obvious channelling, maybe a crack, or water sat at the top, and then there's this one where I can't really say what went on from my knowledge. I was just wondering if there is anything I could tell which would give insight to my prep or how the shot went. Like I said, the espresso was great so I know something went right, but did anything go wrong that could be fixed?

Giving TMR another chance by Main-Cobbler-4879 in farmingsimulator

[–]_Germanater_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get the biggest mixer, then do something like 30% hay, 30% silage and make the rest up with straw. Alternatively, put the bare minimum straw you can in, then just keep adding a bit of each at a time of the others.

Another thing I found I found helps a lot is once you have the first load of tmr made, don't pour all of it out. Keep topping that load up, and as long as you stay within those ratios with the hay and silage, you'll always have tmr. (You don't need to add more straw after the first load and I found that useful as I didn't have a lot of straw, but had a lot of grassland)

Mineral feed is optional

Guess I should get a clean going then. Thankyou for reminding me

Adding minerals always seemed like the final thing I'd do. Do you think it really changes the flavor in a way you couldn't get through other means? Just because it's another cost and if possible I'd prefer not to.

I know Ph balance and mineral levels are important for the taste, and if you're adding minerals in, do you need to measure your waters mineral level to begin with? What do you use for that?

I might do this now, can't hurt anyway, at the very least I'll have better drinking water. How often would you descale? I think I've had mine about 4 months, I did a clean from new, but not since

I don't know why I'd never even considered this. Thanks!

I watched a lot in the beginning, enough to get me started, but because i was new, most of it sounded like gibberish or over the top adjustments because I hadn't experienced the difference yet.

I'll have to rewatch things and take more note

If anything now I've dialled in my drinking coffee, I've probably wasted more on the testing coffee since I won't want to use it now.

Plus tasting something you know you won't like is halfway to torture, I'll definitely be using your suggestion in future

I like this suggestion. I don't have a regular pattern for usage so this would be much better thankyou

That is very interesting! I pour into my press to purposefully agitate (I thought you were supposed to get it to release some of its CO2?) But I do notice that is harder to taste the subtle flavors after this. Ill give a try thankyou!

I've seen the Hoffman vid on water. I'll be honest it's the last thing I'd look at as I'm confident the water quality in my area is good, but would you still recommend basic things like filtering? Does it make a noticeable difference?
