If the Harvester detects that a valid Container is underneath the pipe, it will automatically begin dumping cargo into the container. This pipe can be extended out of the side Harvester when it is time to unload. Harvesting (Applicable to: Tippers, Auger Wagons)Īll Harvesters, Potato Combine Harvesters and Sugar Beet Combine Harvesters have an offloading pipe that enables them to dump the crop out of their holding tank. For example, if a Container currently contains 4% of Corn, and you try to dump Silage into it, all of the Corn in the container will instantly turn into Silage. Doing so will cause the material already inside the container to 'magically' transform into whatever material you're trying to pour into it. Note that if a container contains less than 5% of any material, it can then be filled by any other material just fine. This can lead to strange situations, such as a Bucket being tipped down over the container, but the material refuses to spill out.

The vehicle trying to load the container will simply refuse to dump the material into it. If any of these conditions fails, the material cannot be dumped into the container. (This rule does not apply when using a Loader.)

The container is not in Manual Unloading mode.The container does not contain 5% or more of another type of material.

To put any type of cargo into any Container, all of the following conditions must be true: a Harvester, Loader, etc.) to dump the cargo into them, or by pulling cargo from a stationary loading point (e.g. With the exception of Loading Wagons (which can fill themselves), Containers can only be filled using a second machine (e.g. However, these only contain liquid materials, and are filled and emptied in a very different way to Containers.Īll three types of Containers are designed to carry a large quantity of cargo. There are several other types of storage equipment in the game, particularly various Tankers. They are typically best for long-term storage, particularly for Seeds and Solid Fertilizer. Their advantage is an overloading pipe that allows them to transfer their cargo into any other Container. Auger Wagons can also carry only a limited variety of cargo (mostly Crops), and aren't very large for their price.Their main advantage is that they can pick up these materials from Piles on the field. Loading Wagons can only carry a limited variety of solid materials, mostly those used in Animal Husbandry and the production of Silage.Tippers can also be chained together easily, so that a single vehicle can tow two or more at the same time. They are designed to allow easy bulk transport of cargo from one place to another. They have a larger capacity compared to other Containers, given their low price.

Tippers can carry almost any type of solid material.The main difference between different containers is in their accepted cargo types, as well as their extra features: These machines have a lot of common features, and are used almost identically for most purposes.

In Farming Simulator 17, containers include Tippers, Loading Wagons and Auger Wagons. A Container is a collective term that is used on this Wiki to refer to all types of mobile equipment designed to hold large quantities of solid materials.
