Realistic Harvesting for FS25 - this mod brings true-to-life physics to combine operations in FS25 players as a standalone lightweight script mod by exekx, perfect for immersive field harvesting across dense crops and wide headers where speed dynamically adjusts to prevent arcade-style full-throttle rushes, delivering authentic real-world limitations and strategic gameplay for challenging, rewarding bulk crop logistics.

Features Realistic Harvesting:
– Standalone Script Mod
– Realistic Load Calculation: Slower speeds in denser crops + wider headers
– Automatic Speed Limiting Based on Crop Density & Header Width
– Compact Info HUD: Displays Current Speed, Max Speed, Crop Density, Header Width
– Compatible with Base Game & Modded Combines/Headers
– No FPS Impact, Optimized Performance
– Crossplay Compatible (PC/MAC/PS5/XBS)

Changes in v1.3.2:
- Physical crop loss system! Losses now reduce the actual amount of grain collected in the hopper. (Still in beta, may experience critical issues. Can be disabled in settings)
- Crop losses start at 95% engine load (was 100%).
- Progressive loss formula - higher overload = exponentially higher losses.
- Loss penalties now directly affect yield for more realistic gameplay.
- Settings menu reorganized into "Modeling" and "User Interface and Visual Effects".
- Draggable UI! Right-click to toggle the cursor, then drag the UI to move it. (May cause issues with mods that use the same hotkeys, change the hotkey in settings to prevent this).
- Independent harvester control (optional).
- Interface metrics now instantly reset when the cutter is raised/stopped.
- Customizable interface content (toggling individual elements).                                        

Tested on game version 1.16.x
