Courseplay: Mode2 doesn't work for trailed forage havesters

[NexX0]

Hey there,

so my problem is im using a trailed forage harvester and my tractors (mode2/3) wont drive to it.
It is recognized as a harvester but the tractors just sit at the end of the unloading course.

My workaround is that i let an chaser bin running with FollowMe right next to the Harvester.

My suggestion would be that you can set a chaser bin to always follow the Harvester and/or make it so you can tell a tractor (mode 2) to go to chaser bins.

This would really help with trailed forage harvesters, i can just attach a chaser bin to the Harvester and then let a tractor run in mode 2/3.

i have the same issue with the trailed sugar cane harvester

@zocke1r Sugar cane issue is already know here: https://github.com/Courseplay/courseplay/issues/2455

@Maxcdr no that issue is about the trailers not working with courseplay, this is about the fact that courseplay apperantly cant deal with trailed harvesters

Trailed harvesters sometimes have to be coded into CP so it recognizes that it has a havester name of mod you are using

I am going to close this out. To fix mods with this problem Make sure you are using v02.00029 or higher. , then please use the following code. And insert it around line 159 in specialTools.lua

elseif workTool.cp.xmlFileName == 'thenameofyourmod.xml' then
        workTool.cp.isTraileredChopper = true;

Replace thenameofyourmod with the xml file name of your chosen mod make sure the .xml is present and only one. We may start including some of the more popular ones into the master branch
