The game’s tractors consume far too much diesel when working. This mod reduces consumption only under load, while keeping the game’s consumption at idle.
How it works
At idle (0% load), consumption remains the same as in the base game.
At full load (100%), it is multiplied by a coefficient of ×0.50 by default (approximately half as much).
In between, consumption varies proportionally to the engine load.
Example with the default settings
0% load: ×1.00
50% load: ×0.75
100% load: ×0.50
In my tests, a tractor travelling at 27 km/h consumed 34.2 l/h without the mod and 18.3 l/h with it.
In-game settings
In Settings → Game, a “Realistic consumption” section allows you to adjust:
The consumption at full load, from ×0.30 to ×1.00;
The consumption at idle, from ×0.50 to ×1.00.
The settings are saved with each game.
Features
