LS 25 Grain Volume HUD V1.1.0.0
Ever noticed this? You pull up with a trailer filled to the brim, glance at the display – and it reads: 42,000 litres of wheat. Litres? For wheat? Who measures a whole heap of grain in litres!
Water, milk, diesel – sure, you can pour those and measure them in litres. But grain, silage, woodchips? That’s a heap, not a drink. And a heap is measured differently.
And that’s what this mod does. It looks at what’s sitting in your trailer. Bulk goods? It quickly turns the litres into your unit of choice on the display. A liquid instead – water, slurry, diesel? Then everything stays in litres, because that’s exactly where litres belong.
You choose how bulk goods are shown:
Cubic metres (m³) – 42,000 litres becomes 42.0 m³
Bushels (bu) – the American dry measure
Tons (t) – by real weight, because a heap of silage weighs differently than a heap of wheat
Set the unit right in the game under Settings → General (“Bulk Unit”) – or in the file modSettings/GrainVolumeHUD.xml (unit = M3, BUSHEL, TON or LITER). Nothing else to press: load as always, look at the display, and see at a glance how much is really on there.
And so your fill-level HUD now shows the unit that fits what you’ve loaded.
What the mod does:
Bulk goods (grain, silage, grass, woodchips, root crops …) in m³, bushels or tons
Liquids (water, milk, diesel, slurry, liquid fertiliser …) stay in litres
Unit freely selectable – right in the game menu or in a small settings file
Multiplayer-friendly (display only, no changes to gameplay)
