Open settings via ESC → Settings → Soil & Fertilizer (in-game menu).
In multiplayer, only the server admin (master user) can change settings. Other players can view but not edit. Settings are server-authoritative and sync to all clients automatically.
| Setting | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Enable Mod | On | Master switch. Disabling stops all depletion and restoration but keeps saved data intact. |
| Fertility System | On | Enables/disables nutrient depletion at harvest and fertilizer restoration. |
| Nutrient Cycles | On | Enables/disables rain leaching and seasonal nitrogen effects. |
| Seasonal Effects | On | Spring N boost (+0.03/day) and fall N loss (−0.02/day). |
| Rain Effects | On | Rain leaches N, K, and P; slightly acidifies pH. |
| Plowing Bonus | On | Deep plowing (>15 cm) mixes organic matter and gives a small OM boost. |
| Weed Pressure | On | Tracks per-field weed density; applies yield penalties at harvest. Apply herbicide to reduce. |
| Pest Pressure | On | Tracks insect pest pressure per field. Grows daily, peaks in summer. Apply insecticide to reduce. Max yield penalty −20%. |
| Disease Pressure | On | Tracks crop disease pressure per field. Driven by rain, peaks spring and fall. Apply fungicide to reduce. Max yield penalty −25%. |
| Fertilizer Costs | On | Custom fertilizer types cost money to purchase. |
| Notifications | On | In-game notifications for fertilizer application and harvest depletion events. |
| Auto-Rate Control | On | Sprayer automatically adjusts application rate to target optimal nutrient levels. |
| Difficulty | Realistic | Controls depletion and restoration multiplier (see below). |
| Level | Multiplier | Effect |
|---|---|---|
| Simple | 0.7× | 30% less depletion per harvest; easier for new players |
| Realistic | 1.0× | Balanced; calibrated to real-world agricultural rates |
| Hardcore | 1.5× | 50% more depletion; intensive soil management required |
Each player controls their own HUD appearance independently. These settings are not sent to the server.
| Setting | Default | Options |
|---|---|---|
| Show HUD | On | On / Off |
| HUD Position | Top Right | Top Right · Top Left · Bottom Right · Bottom Left · Center Right · Custom |
| Color Theme | Green | Green · Blue · Amber · Mono |
| Font Size | Medium | Small · Medium · Large |
| Transparency | Medium (70%) | Clear 25% · Light 50% · Medium 70% · Dark 85% · Solid 100% |
| Imperial Units | On | On (gal/ac, lb/ac) / Off (L/ha, kg/ha) |
While driving a sprayer or spreader, adjust the application rate with:
| Action | Key binding (default) |
|---|---|
| Rate Up | SF Rate Up |
| Rate Down | SF Rate Down |
| Toggle Auto-Rate | SF Toggle Auto |
20 rate steps are available from 0.10× to 2.00× the base rate. Rates above 1.25× risk fertilizer burn; rates at or above 1.50× guarantee burn on every application.
The HUD displays the current rate in real-world units (gal/ac or L/ha) based on the loaded fill type.
