Also, keep an eye out for 'collectables'. These can be any object, depending on the map creator. On Riverbend they are old machinery for a museum. There is a small monetary reward. So look everywhere with the top left menu showing.
Thank you for the reminder. I know where one is for sure. I'll make sure I picked it up. I think I did and explained that they are. But I'll make sure.
It can be interesting to try unconventional methods to get things done but they don't always work out. I feel a wall of text incoming, hope it is not to boring. If you are looking for unconventional ways to move the pressure washer a tool that grabs like a Bale Handler RBG, or the log fork works. You can just go into the build menu (SHIFT + P) top selection, subsection Tools, and place the washer where every you want on the map directly. If you want to manually move the power washer use a trailer like the Stema Trius (under category miscellaneous, miscellaneous) or the DTS 5.9 (category trailers, low loaders). Both have ramps you can drive the power washer up. The ramps for the Trius are kind of hidden if you don't know they are an option. You press the "U" key a few times to change the tip side to "tip side (ramp)", then press "Y" to unfold ramp. Use the mouse to more the ramps closer together. Always remember to press "L" to strap down anything you put in a trailer so it doesn't accidentally go flying. If you would like to move tools like the forks or others things you can control with the mouse, try the keys J,K,M,N. More complex tools also use Left Shift and/or Left Control as modifiers. This can get a bit confusing. Front weights act as a counter balance to heavy tools on the back of the tractor. If you find your tractor does not turn properly or feels floaty, especially with the tool in the raised position, you may be back heavy. You can also put a weight on the back when picking up something heavy with your front loader. Rear tire weights provide weight and traction to pull difficult tools for fieldwork. If your tractor is light or the tool big your tires will slip. For steering assist when you set up a tractor + tool you will notice the lines are bright white. After driving on a green line you can see that once you are off the line it turns grey, indicating that line has been driven on. I find that driving the entire length of the green guide line ensures I have finished that line. I also double check the map occasionally. Switching tools, dropping a tool, restarting a save, or anything that makes the game forget that specific steering assist route will remove the gray lines.
Using a frontloader competently is one of the hardest skills for the new player. Especially pallet forks, bale spikes, log grabs. Frontloader buckets are the easiest.
I didn't want to spend any more money than I had to and I had seen another of my fav content creators do this. I also don't know what a frontloader bucket is. Someone gave me key to try instead of the mouse so hopefully it will be easier going forward.
Hi thanks for your stream hey you completed that big field very good, and tip if you open your map you can scroll sideways to field state and you can check their what been seeded and fertilised dark blue for double fertilised and if light blue you need to roll the field unfortunately thanks again 😊
I was seeing a bug where when I opened the map, it showed nothing on the two fields I just seeded, one of which had been fertilized. That's what another subscriber told me. And I'm glad you like my videos! I'm loving making them!
@RetiredGeekWomanSims ah yes after the last update did you start again I had too as the update you need too most people didn't and they are having problems some lost the entire game hope this helps, and yes I am enjoying your streams thanks 😀
@@Darksoul-e1c I will look at my field map next time I log on. I've got 5 videos and I would hate to start over. But I'll do whatever is needed to continue this series. Thanks for the info! It IS helpful!
@RetiredGeekWomanSims nice one I play on PC and Xbox and PlayStation and I just restarted on all of them lol it's madness I know, glad your enjoying yourself, and glad your on the mend from shingles
You should buy a pickup truck. Handy for the odd pallet that YOU can lift or lift with a pallet fork, like your honey pallet.Not all pallets are 'liftable' though by you. Unless you cheat by using 'Superstrength'. See if you can lift your power washer.
In my test play I bought things way too quickly that I didn't really need yet. So this time I'm going slower. I'll buy things as I need them. I do not have superstrength turned on. I want to play this game as real life as I can.
Ow and you must and go and see Ben on your map he tells you all you need to know about field work and Katy for animals and wood man in forgot his name lol and David, hope this helps you in some ways 😊

Hey! I'm sorry it took a while to respond to your messages. I had a family party yesterday and was gone all day.

Buy the power washer from the build menu under tools and place down at farm
That WOULD have been easier if I had done that before I bought it. *face palm*

You are the second person who told me to go meet the neighbors! I suppose that means I should. It's good to be friendly!
You can see the little pale white tractor icon top left above the keypress menu right? That willtell you which implement on the tractor is 'live'.
Thank you for that tip! I wondered what that little icon was for!
