| Hi, Im learning to change the scripts, so i can alter effects on my mixerwagon mod, Currently trying to put grass back, like in FS17, but im having 0 luck! Currently i think the issue lies in this section of the script: --===================================================================================== -- MIXER WAGON GRASS WINDROW -- -- @For: TwistedGetsu/Animal Feed Edition -- @Date: 2019-01-23 -- @Purpose: To allow grass_windrow fillType in the mixer wagon. --===================================================================================== local oldMixerWagonLoad = MixerWagon.load; MixerWagon.load = function(self.xmlfile, savegame) if oldMixerWagonLoad ~= nil then oldMixerWagonLoad(self.xmlfile, savegame) spec.mixerWagonFillTypes = nil spec.fillTypeToMixerWagonFillType = nil end spec.activeTimerMax = 5000 spec.activeTimer = 0 spec.fillUnitIndex = Utils.getNoNil(getXMLInt(self.xmlFile, "vehicle.mixerWagon#fillUnitIndex"), 1) -- remove grass_windrow from fillTypes, we do not want to support grass in mixer wagons becasue this would make hay "useless" local fillUnit = self:getFillUnitByIndex(spec.fillUnitIndex) if fillUnit ~= nil then fillUnit.needsSaving = false if fillUnit.supportedFillTypes[FillType.GRASS_WINDROW] then fillUnit.needsSaving = false end end I know someone with more knowledge will be able to make sense of this easily but im very confused because ive tried many alterations with no results, and no real way of knowing if im any closer >.< please help if u can! There is more to the script but im almost 100% that its this bit thats wrong.. :( Also that mis spelling of because is on their script on this site.. soooo xD |

| Directly (hard-) overwriting a default function is never a good idea. The function might be used by game engine itself or by another mod. Instead use thisFunction = Utils.xyzFunction(originalFunction, myFunction) where 'xyz' can be 'appended' or 'prepended' or 'overwritten'. For your issue it's necessary to copy the complete orig. function and modify it according your desires. You must also regard a necessary basic structure for a script mod. Take existing mods as examples. |

| After checking more i further understand, i have started the custom spec and believe it is much more inline with what i should do and what works best! Thanks for info! |
