featuredJust as in FS15 the mass of most of the filltypes in FS17 is about half of the real value. That of course makes for quite unrealistic behavior of loaded trailers. To fix this, again, this mod exists :)
All the standard fruit types are listet in the script with their specific mass. Mod-fruittypes can be added, there is a comment within the script telling you how to. But i'm also open to suggestions as to what fruittypes to add to the next verion. Best is to send me a PM containing the actual name of the fillType and the specific weight it has in real life.. ;)
Also, if you think one of the values within the script isn't correct please tell me. I just googled most of the values and took a average of the values if found, so maybe someone who is in real farming knows stuff a bit better and finds that some of the values are way off, then please by all means tell me and i will fix it in further versions.
This is for all the people who want to play realistically. The difference is really noticeable and it feels more like MoreRealistic in FS13 with this Script. If the trailer is full, well you feel its full..
Just copy the Zip File in the mod folder, no further editing neccesary.

For all the people wanting to play unrealisitically, there is the unrealistic version again, all the values are multiplied by 0.01 on that version:

1 Comments for FillTypeMassAdjustment for FS17 (realistic loading masses)
There is an other important problem there is to fix in the game : in a trailer where you can put 20 tons of wheat, you cannot put 20 tons of silage ! Actually your script make the effect that it's harder to pull the trailer full of wheat, but with the same problem of specific density the fact is you should not be able to put 20 tons of silage in this trailer.
Im Hänger wird immer nur ein Volumen angezeigt. Die Dichte der unterschiedlichen Materialen, wird durch diesen Mod angepasst, also kein Problem.
Well 20 tons are 20 tons, no matter what they consist of. The difference between 20 tons of wheat and 20 tons of silage is, that 20 tons of silage take up a lot less volume than 20 tons of wheat. so if you fill up two identical tippers to the brim (that is the volume) with wheat and another one with silage, the one with the silage will be a lot heavier. The keyword to this difference is density. Therefor 1 cubic meter of lead (volume) weighs more than 1 cubic meter of feathers, which is quite obvious i think.
There is really no issue there. FS doesn't take weight into account when filling up trailers, only volume.. Just as in real life.
If you have a capacity of 23000 in your trailer that is 23 cubic meters (23m³) or 23000 liters, not tons.
That is volume, not weight. You can put 23m³ silage in there just as you can put 23m³ of wheat in there.. Just like in real life.
If you put 23m³ silage in there it is going to be less weight than 23m³ wheat, in FS just as in real life.
23m³ of silage weight about 4t with default fs values. The same volume in wheat would be about 9.8t with default fs values..
As you can see, there is no issue there ;)
