HoseSystem for Farming Simulator 17

Why is the HoseSystem not working!?

The HoseSystem is currently conflicting with these known mods/scripts:

Ground Modification
RealisticBeacons script

To make fully use of the HoseSystem please make sure to remove those mods from your mod folder.

This list will stay till the creators updated their mod.

Warning!

Please be aware that this is a DEVELOPMENT VERSION!

If you are planning to use a copy of the current development branch, please understand that the development version can break the game!

If you are using the latest HoseSystemVehicle from this repository make sure to use the latest release from the Hose System! Conflicts in combination with older versions are not included by support.

Latest Release

Dev tips:

If you want to turn of debug mode:

Option 1: enter gsToggleHoseSystemDebugRendering in your engine console.
Option 2: open the HoseSystemRegistrationHelper.lua and set self.debugRendering to false

To quickly zip the dev mod without the needed extra's use the zip.bat.

Please note: the zip.bat requires the application 7zip to be installed!
