Combine Blockage V1.1.0.0
Combine Blockage V1.1.0.0
The mod is global and installs itself in any vehicle that has a cutting unit.
Simulates header utilization during harvesting.
Utilization depends, among other things, on the driving speed and the actual amount of crop the header is taking in.
Up to approximately 6 km/h, utilization increases to about 80%.
At around 7 km/h, header utilization can already reach 100%.
From approximately 8 km/h at 100% utilization, the header can become completely clogged.
At high utilization, additional malfunctions can occur (inclined conveyor and threshing drum).
After a load event, the random check is only reactivated when the utilization drops to approximately 60% or less.
In the event of a cutting unit blockage, the cruise control is deactivated, the cutting unit is switched off, and the blockage must be cleared manually.
The default key combination is Left Alt + B.
In the event of a drum blockage, the combine harvester stops, the cruise control is deactivated, the combine is switched off, and the header is disengaged.
Default key: Left Alt + T.
In the event of a conveyor blockage, the cruise control is deactivated, the combine harvester is switched off, and then the combine harvester must be switched back on.
Default key: Left Alt + S.
The HUD displays the current “cutter utilization,” including its status (NORMAL or HIGH).
Blockages are indicated with clear warning messages such as CUTTER CLOGGED, DRUM CLOGGED, or INCLINED CONVEYOR BLOCKED.
If an AI helper is active, the blockage detection system is deactivated to prevent the helper from getting stuck due to malfunctions.
