I have just had similar on the second time back to the field, the first time the unloader went, it came back and found a path ok. I will attach my logs below

Didn't have debug on for this picture, but i turned it on afterwards, the unloader gets quite close behind the forager on corners, so when creating the pocket for turning the corner it crashed into the unloader and stopped the operation. Could the unloader sit further back form the forager and then this would be fixed?

Then I struggled to get the two to connect again, until i drove the unloader right up next to the forager, as the unloader just kept saying no path. Here is the log for interest if it's any use.

@coatsy35 That looks more like a mod Issue.
As always, not all mods are made like Vanilla Tools and we can only and will only work on that base.

What we can try it to somehow add the offsets to the autoaim.

@Martin-L45
Thats strange.... I will test that Chopper later, but the one I used (I think JD and Claas) worked without any problem with unload on field and also found its way over a longer distance to the chopper.

Why did you unzip all your mods ???

[coatsy35]

That’s fair enough, weirdly it did work the first time the trailer came back to the field. I will try with another chopper to test on my game tonight hopefully

this is the mod https://www.kingmods.net/en/fs22/mods/15838/new-holland-s2200

@Tensuko I unzip my mods because i tweak and edit most of the ones i use to make them look and work the way i want them to.
But i try to always do Courseplay tests with ingame equipment.

I will try again with only Courseplay in the modfolder.

[Martin-L45]

@Tensuko I have just made a new test with only Courseplay and Autodrive in the modfolder.
This time there was no issues. So i must have a mod conflict of some kind. I will try to track it down. But i think we can close the issue...

Good morning,

First of all, thank you for this Courseplay option. I was looking forward to this.

I did a lot of testing. and I notice some problems:

1. I too have the same problem as Martin-L45 and coatsy35. Some tractors can't find the way to reach the forage harvester (photo 1) In particular, in my case, the McCormick X8 (photo 3) I tried with different trailers, but nothing helps, the McCormick can't find the way (and it's not a mod). On the other hand, if I approach the McCormick close to the forage harvester and in the right direction (photo 2), it will find the forage harvester and it will work normally. Likewise, if I take another tractor with the same trailer, it works.
2. Is it possible that the tractor is positioned further forward. Next to the forage harvester? (photo 4) Sometimes the forage harvester has difficulty finding the trailer.
3. The turns of the tractor and trailer are tight at the end of the field, and sometimes the forage harvester does not detect the trailer (photo 5&6). I have tried with different forage harvesters, including the Krone BigX 1180, even with different pipe lengths, but sometimes it does not detect. Would it be possible for the tractor to make wider turns, in order to get directly next to the forage harvester?

That is not always how they will work correctly....

Will check if we can make the offset on the hud working for this, but won't do that for automatic distance.

Thats the turn radius of tractor and trailer, should be written in the log.
Suggestion (what I always do) use the Racetrack pattern for center strategy, works best for chopper. That pattern was designed for chopper in FS19.

[Tensuko]

Should be fixed in the next Release.
Maybe also help with that mod chopper, but as always, mods that don't follow Giants standards, can't rly support them.

@Tensuko dropped the code for the fix into my copy and it has fixed the issue with the mod chopper. Appears to be working well now 👌Can't believe how smooth CP's chopper code works 😎
