Universal Autoload v0.3.0.0

This automatically modifies the actual base game trailers, and will be applied to any new or existing trailers on your farm. Please see the included read-me file for instructions on adding to your own mod trailers or pallets.

Changelogs:

v0.3.0.0
Hopefully resolves #69 – IMPROVED MP SYNC
There is quite a high probability that something is broken now – please report any issues
Big change to the order of events when vehicles are loaded
New configurations are written to settings (or sent to the server in MP) when clicking “YES” on the buy/lease/edit dialog
Hopefully this means that the server now gets the settings before creating the vehicle
I have tested on my own server and seems to work fine, but I don’t know how much of the vehicle creation network stuff is synchronous/asynchronous so there is a good chance it may not work sometimes..

V0.2.2.4
Menu button is working again!

V0.2.2.3
Controller “BACK” button should now work for Autoload menu
Any set input for “MENU_BACK” should now work to exit the menu
Removed test global menu again

v0.2.2.2
Added more console commands
ualAddBales
ualAddLogs (only TRANSPORT LOGS for now)
ualClearLoadedObjects

V0.2.2.1
Added some more things to the menu
Fixed “Open Menu” button moving around
Removed OK button and renamed back button as “Close”
Enable/Disable autoload still does not do anything (apart from hide the menu)
New menu items should be self explanitory (NOT FULLY TESTED!)

v0.2.2
Added some actual MENU functionality!
New menu should work for all items:
Set bale/log/box/curtain trailer types
Horizontal Loading
Side Manual Loading Triggers (“Enable side loading”)
Rear Manual Loading Triggers (“Enable rear loading”)
Front/Rear Unloading

NOTE:
Enable/Disable Autoload doesn’t actually disable anything yet
Manual loading ONLY works with forklift (not with super strength)
Added warning about renaming bad config names from earlier versions (see e.g. #127 / #140)

v0.2.1.4
No feature changes
Fixed an issue where the menu button was not shown in the correct place when changing between different vehicles

v0.2.1.3
Fix for #130
One line change to prevent error on detecting bales
Have also put some more bales in my main test savegame

v0.2.1.0
Added template for shop configuration menu
Added an empty menu (it doesn’t actually do anything)
Menu close and accept buttons work, but only when clicking (not with keys)
Added a load of language stuff – don’t translate yet as things may change or not be needed
Partial fix for #112 Removed debugging text apart from when debugging mode is active
Fix for #120 Similar to fix for selling logs, we just listen for any logs that are cut

V0.2.0.1
Sold wood was not detected as leaving the trigger, so now we look for anything that is deleted and check if it was loaded

NOTE: A reminder to remove any previous settings for log trailers (or bale trailers) from your mod settings file if you had previously bought and configured them before v0.2.0.0

V0.2
Finally Added LOGS!!
Log loading is now working (without any collision detection)
A “log factor” allows for logs to take up less space than if the bounding boxes were stacked
Also added a speed check to help avoid #108
Don’t expect ALL log trailers to work properly – it should be added for those in WOODTRANSPORT and
FORESTRYFORWARDERS categories. I guess some of those shouldn’t actually have it. As before with curtain and bale trailers, you should remove any entries from the settings file if you have configured them previously.
You will also have to RESIZE the box yourself. Log trailers are mostly air with no flat surfaces, so it is difficult to find the loading space programatically.

v0.1.0.1
Added margin around triggers to prevent detection of items outside the defined volume
Fixed a bug that prevented loading other items when the biggest one didn’t fit
Now restraps tension belts after partial unloading

NOTE: this should fix some of the “item can’t be loaded” bugs, but there is a chance of the telefragging pallets type of bug coming back.. Those two bugs are in opposition to each other!

v0.1
Automatically identify bale and curtain trailers
Added a message to the readme to see if the third-party mod sites actually read anything they scrape before they post it.

NOTE: Your local settings will still override anything automatic, so use the the new detection of bale and curtain trailers the easiest thing is to remove your mod settings file and buy them all again (as you did when you started). OR otherwise you can edit the settings file to remove those trailers that you want to be reconfigured.

v0.0.0.18
Fixed the “always load the longest items first” bug;
Cleaned up warning messages about key binding conflicts. Key bindings conflict messages should now only appear once per game.

v0.0.0.17
I remebered to update the version in moddesc this time.
Some extra validation to prevent #99
Fix for bug #72 – Don’t stack sapling pallets

V0.0.0.16
The issue here was a key binding conflict of “UAL unload” with “Crab Steering (All)” – both using shift-I
I have made a compromise where UAL overrides the other bindings if they are either one of ‘TOGGLE_TIPSIDE’ or ‘CRABSTEERING_ALLWHEEL’. This seems reasonable, since we want to use our own tip-side command and you can still change the crab steering using toggle (ctrl-Y). If you change your key bindings so they don’t conflict, then nothing gets overridden anyway.
Note: you will get some log entries like:
UAL – key binding for UNLOAD_ALL failed to register
removed conflicting action: CRABSTEERING_ALLWHEEL
UAL – key binding for SELECT_ALL_MATERIALS failed to register
conflicting action is: TOGGLE_CRABSTEERING
This is to help with debugging any unforseen issues and I’ll remove it once it seems to be working.

V0.0.0.15
It has been 2 days – so it must be time for a new release!
Added other train carriages (see bug #84 )
Handle configs and configSets (see bugs #21, #55)
Some refactoring and extra debugging to help identify what is going on with the loading bugs

NOTE: if you already own the International CV Series truck, you will probably have to re-configure it in the shop or workshop. BUT at least now it will recognise the different size options for the cab.

V0.0.0.14
Some QoL Changes
Updated most of the language PRs
Set horizontal loading default key to INSERT
Added new messages for “trailer full” vs “item too big”
Logic change when loading that should prevent bugs like #53
Set moddesc version back to 92 because I am bored of answering bugs about the game not loading for people who have not updated yet..

V0.0.0.13
Actually fixed the loading bugs.. (MAYBE..)
Removed references to “partially” unloaded for now
The real fix was to treat loading the same way as bale collection mode – since that does not rely on collision detection, which is currently not active

V0.0.0.12
Fix horizontal mode broken in last release

V0.0.0.10
Mostly UNTESTED lunch time release (I checked that it loaded into the game, but please test changes for me if you are able to)
Added “*** LOAD AREAS MISSING ***” warning to help identify bad configurations. If you see that warning, please check (or delete) your mod settings file
Shortened strings for bug #51
Most recent configuration now restored when re-entering the shop
Resetting (shift-ctrl-click) is only saved when the vehicle is bought, leased or changed
Add “area full” flags for each loading area – related to e.g. bugs #9 and #60
Only display warning messages for players who are in the current vehicle – see #59
Display simple addExtraPrintText with loaded count for debugging in MP (will add more features over time)

V0.0.0.9
Left some debugging prints in the last version by mistake!

V0.0.0.7
TEMPORARY fix for an issue with loading on most vehicles
I realise now that the current issue is because loading triggers cannot be resized
I have made a temporary change that should improve loading for all previously existing vehicles on a savegame
Newly purchased ones will likely still have issues

v0.0.0.6
Added some checks to prevent #26
I think that #26 was caused by missing settings, so should not happen anymore
I will add further validation of settings before applying them in a future update

Version 0.0.0.4 for Farming Simulator 2025 (v1.3.x):
Fixed/improved loading of round bales.

Important
If it’s not working for you. Try remapping Ctrl+U, and it worked, so switch sides.
It won’t be on any in game owned items already, you’ll have to sell to get a new trailer with the autoload enabled.

Somehow, it worked for me even on multiplayer. Just bought new profi liner and got all my mushrroms loaded.
