Dashboard section

Fields

The richest view in the app. Every parcel shows crop stage, harvest readiness, ground material, optional Precision Farming and Soil Fertilizer bars, and a rules engine that tells you what to do next — using tools already on your farm. V5 adds an Order menu and GPS painted-blob groups only (no silent same-crop neighbour merge).

Field Management in Farm Dashboard V5 with summary, filters, Order menu, and soil cards

Built for planning, not just looking

Summary cards, smart filters, and per-field cards update while your save runs on the host (SP or MP host).

Summary row

Total fields, area, needs work, and harvest ready — click to filter the list instantly.

Rules engine

One-line next step per parcel; refresh after big in-game changes. Same 4.2 brain, new cards.

Windrows & bales

Litres on the ground, bale counts, and forage badges when the mod exports them.

GPS groups only

Painted-blob merge plus optional manual groups. Adjacent same-crop parcels stay separate unless you grouped them.

Overview

Summary, filters & search

The header answers “how much land and what state is it in?” before you scroll. Filter buttons narrow to harvest ready, needs work, growing, or empty parcels. Search finds a field by name or id on large maps.

Status badges: Ready, Needs work, Growing, Empty, Harvested, and more
Exclude parcels in Settings → Dashboard
Soil urgency is a sort option — Soil Fertilizer does not force it

Order menu

Sort by field number (default), crop, size, work needed, or soil urgency. Your choice is remembered. Native dropdowns may look slightly different in a browser screenshot than in the installed app — the options are the same.

Further down the list

Each parcel is a full card — soil bars, treatment notes, crop moisture, and a suggested next step. Scroll past the first two to see the rest of the farm.

Field cards mid-list with soil bars and crop stage — Mid-list — GPS groups, soil, and harvest badges

Field cards further down the Field Management list — Lower list — more parcels, same card layout

How to use Fields

Quick workflow

Open Fields in the sidebar (not a home card).
Scan summary cards, then filter, search, or change Order.
Read each card: badges, growth, soil, suggestion, tools.
After major work in-game, refresh when the export catches up.

Setup reminder

If cards never load, the mod has not written data.json yet — enable the mod, load the save in-world once, then confirm Settings → Servers & saves points at the right slot.
