Test build 2.4.3.1, on top of the 2.4.3.0 stable. A batch of burn fixes plus a couple of new things.

Burn

  • The burn penalty now builds up as you spray instead of an instant -80%. An accidental brush or a slide onto the field costs only a small amount, giving you time to shut the sprayer off. Sustained spraying still reaches the full burn.
  • Seeding with starter fertilizer no longer burns young crops.
  • The burn penalty no longer sticks after you replant (clears on sow, cultivate or plough).
  • The soil monitor now warns you before liming or manuring would scorch the crop.

Compaction

  • Ploughing now relieves only a little compaction. A subsoiler is still the real fix.
  • Oilseed radish and canola slowly ease compaction as they grow.

Other

  • Fresh mid-save installs no longer start fields at 0/0/0/0.
  • See & Spray buy option shows on every sprayer (from the 2.4.3.0 line).

How to test

  • Drop the zip in your mods folder and load a save.
  • Burn: lime or manure a fully grown crop and watch the penalty build up as you spray. Brushing the edge should cost very little.
  • Mid-save: add the mod to an existing save and check fields start at sensible values, not zero.
  • Please report anything odd in the issues.
