New patch 1.13 has been released for Farming Simulator 25. It is now available for PC and includes a lot of changes. The improvements made in this update are discussed below.

What’s new in patch 1.13

The main part of the update concerns the basic version of Farming Simulator 25. The developers have made a number of changes aimed at improving stability and correcting errors accumulated since the release.

The resolution scaling setting has been disabled if the player uses upscaling technology - this should improve compatibility with modern video cards and rendering systems. Fixed problems with flashing beacons, which previously looked «transparent» from below, as well as errors in the system of achievements in the version of Epic Games.

Fixed the game stalling at 89% of boot time due to liftableAxle not being available.

Update 1.13 removed a bug that could cause engine sounds to "break" the audio receiver. Workers (AI) now correctly recognize the treated areas when spraying with herbicides.

Fixed errors when calculating the working area of a mower, connecting several weapons, operation of containers and tension belts, as well as the situation when the game was stuck at 89% load.

Complete Change Log:

• Fixed a bug where multiplayer players could not use the flashlight.
• Containers can now be opened even while they are being loaded, which was not possible before.
• Fixed achievement for collecting stones in the Epic Games Store version.
• Beacon lights no longer look transparent from the bottom - visual defect has been removed.
• Fixed an issue where engine sounds could completely disable audio output.
• Improved the behavior of AI when harvesting crops on turning lines. Now the technique is deployed optimally, given the direction of rotation.
• Fixed the calculation of mower working zones so that mowing is performed correctly and evenly.
• Added changes to key assignments in the help menu - now correct combinations and button priorities are displayed.
• Fixed the attachment of several tools when one was already attached to another.
• Fixed a bug where the game could crash when loading at 89% due to incorrect lift axis status (liftableAxle).
• Fixed problems with collisions between containers, due to which they affected each other during installation.
• The containers are held more firmly - the strength of fixing fixed objects is increased.
• Fixed a bug that caused mission vehicles to remain active after completion of the task.
• Fixed bug in AI logic when applying herbicides - now workers recognize already processed areas and do not apply an extra layer.
• The problem that caused dirt to accumulate on Michelin XM47 tyres has been eliminated.
• Fixed the behavior of the tension belts, now they lie correctly and do not pass over filling pallets.
• Fixed the calculations of unloading materials, because of which incorrect information about filling could appear (for example, in the Nexat seeder).
• Fixed a bug that caused the Streumaster spade not to work in multiplayer.
• Optimized the behavior of artificial intelligence on some types of technology: AI now performs more carefully and efficiently turns on turning lanes.
• The display of prompts and buttons in the top left corner of the screen has been improved to make control more intuitive.
• The resolution scaling option is disabled if ascending technology is actively used. This prevents visual conflicts and glitches in the graph.
• A new type of carbon material - carbonPattern02 has been added to the modding tools.

Precision Farming 1.3 - more precision in every detail

The Precision Farming module, which received version 1.3, also received a series of improvements. Added support for custom fertilizer types via map, improved pH and nitrogen level determination, as well as fixed errors in the field size display in the multiplayer.

Complete list of changes:

• Added the ability to adjust the distance between processing tracks, which is especially useful for machines like Fendt Rogator and similar machines.
• Support for custom fertilizer types is integrated into the system, which can now be added directly from map.xml file.
• Improved recognition of pH and nitrogen content in the soil, which allows more accurate application of necessary rates of fertilizer.
• Fixed the display of field sizes for players in multiplayer mode, now data is correctly synchronized between clients.
• The John Deere R975i PowrSpray Sprayer has been updated to provide a more natural and accurate illumination of the working area.
• The values of pH and nitrogen were corrected in the process ranges, where previously data could be displayed incorrectly.
• Fixed an error that caused the interface to show a perfect environmental score (100), even if the scores were actually lower.
• Increased accuracy of cost-income calculation in the environmental analysis section, which makes the economy more realistic.
• Improved AI behavior on plots that are already partially limestone or fertilized, now workers correctly continue processing without re-passes.
• Revised visualization of pH level on the mini map and values are displayed with greater detail and readability.

Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack 1.1 - more possibilities for the Unimog

Mercedes-Benz Trucks Pack has only recently been released, but the developers have also worked on improvements in it and released them in this update.

In version 1.1, a new grain extension for the Unimog U2400 has been added, the behavior of the mechanical gearboxes in automatic mode has been improved and GPS system sounds have been added, which were missing previously. Also improved the visual part of some models, including Arocs and Actros.

Plains & Prairies 1.3 and NEXAT 1.3 - visual update and optimization

For fans of the Plains & Prairies map, version 1.3 is available. The developers have updated the colors of the technology using real scan data, corrected the operation of manual boxes on the Versatile Nemesis and made visual improvements to a number of models.

The Nexat package focuses on eliminating interface conflicts and adjusting a number of machines to improve stability and ease of operation in the field.

GIANTS Software warns that after the update you may experience temporary downtime on the first start. This is due to shading. If you have a lot of modes, this scenario is even more likely. Just scroll through the map using fast transport and visit more locations so they all load.
