Hello, how can I increase the traction / power of the tractor from the tire settings or another place? Thanks..

The engine power is determined by <motor torqueScale=..
You can calculate approximately at <torque normRpm="0.72" torque="1"/> torqueScale = hp / 225.5

Any other effect is resulting physics only: wheels/tires, differential.

The FS is based on slightly simplified but basic physical laws. So "increase power" inevitably means increase torque. A change in torque due to gearing is not taken into account. This is simulated by the <torque> table.

Some minor influence in FS have:
- A smaller wheel diameter increases the effective torque to the ground, but slows down the vehicle.
- The tire friction may give more traction, but it cannot enhance the effective torque.
- The differential determines merely the distribution to the driven wheels.

So if you want to "increase the traction / power of the tractor" there's no other effective way than <motor torqueScale=..
