Hi, first, thank you for this amazing mod! Pushes the game closer to reality.
My question, or please, is a little change of behavior when transmission is overloaded. Now appears message "gearbox overload, watch temp..." and a tractor is a little stuck. Ok. Is it possible to show a warning light on your CVT panel before this situation starts? Yellow for warning and red for damaging (without that message on the screen)? Because when I ride with a heavy load, I have to hold power under damage, but on max value. Hope it makes sense for you. It can be a little fine enhancement in the future. Thank you.
Cheers, ticho aka DrewCZ

Hi,
with a heavy transport, you have to reduce the Acceleration-Ramp to 3 or 2.
Before the damage starts, the temperature will go up.

Did you mean the temperature of the engine in-game? I think not. Because the engine was cold enough. And yes, I know how to handle heavy transport :-)

Exactly, this is "a message about the damage".

And I'll be very happy when before this situation starts, I'll receive the warning. Something like a yellow light on your nice CVT display which can mean: warning! you are close to the damaged gearbox. Maybe called a "high gearbox temperature warning lamp".

Hi,
some sort of temperature senor feedback would be nice. I'd say "just" make the HUD color of the acceleration ramps change.
E.g. ramp 4 is too high for x-load and the temperature rises >safe temp: change the color from green to orange. -> for damage: change orange to red.
If the player lowers the ramp or the temperature drops down to normal levels, the color would go back to orange/green.

I don't know if it would work, but I guess it would be an easy way to give feedback to (inexperienced) players.
Just my thoughts...

Best regards.

But first I have to fix the new situation on server issue cuz of other issues poped out there, because other fixes
