Cattle and Crops update for December 20, 2018

The grassland update v0.4.0 adds the Claas Direct Disc 520 cutterbar and a Strautmann Giga-Vitesse 4401 loader wagon to the game.

Fruit types: from now on multiple fruit types can be filled into the same trailer allowing you to collect grass, silage, hay and straw at the same time. Select the difficulty level of traders in the options menu under “Gameplay” ➞ ”Sale Mode”. Depending on the setting you will get different prices for mixed loads.

Quest: the existing quest “Bring in the hay” has been split. After tedding you get two new quests, allowing you to decide if you want to press the hay into bales or collect it with the loader wagon.

Console: we have added multiple new commands. If you enter a command without any parameters it will show a info text in the console with all the available parameters.
