Dynamic PTO speed V1.1.3.1 FS25
Dynamic PTO Speed (Dynamic PTO)
This mod brings realistic dynamics to your tractor’s PTO! Instead of a fixed PTO speed, the working speed of all implements adapts directly to the engine speed. The higher the engine revs, the faster mowers, choppers, balers or conveyor belts operate. This creates a natural working experience close to real farming.
Main Features & Hand Throttle
Live calculation: The PTO speed is calculated in real time from the current engine speed and the tractor’s gearing.
Precise hand throttle: The engine no longer automatically revs up to maximum speed. The modes (540, 540E, 1000, 1000E + AUTO) set the target. The engine speed can be fine-tuned with `Ctrl + Up / Down` and is saved when exiting.
Real manufacturer data: A database automatically detects the correct speed (e.g. 1000 RPM for large balers/mower combinations; 540 RPM for round balers/tedders).
Front & rear: Independent detection of front and rear PTOs with seamless switching using `Ctrl + Alt + E`.
Dynamic Implement Behavior
Mowers & choppers: React directly to the throttle and reach maximum throughput at high engine speed.
Balers & forage wagons: Operate proportionally to the engine speed. An integrated overload and stalling system for balers provides additional realism.
Conveyor belts & overload wagons: Transport material precisely according to the engine speed.
HUD & Convenience
Smart display: The compact in-cab HUD shows engine speed, PTO RPM, mode and status. It only appears when an implement is attached and automatically hides in menus.
Mouse control: The control panel can be opened with a key to select modes directly. The mouse is released again immediately after closing.
Customizable: The HUD can be moved with `Ctrl + P` and hidden with `Alt + H`. Positions are saved automatically.
Technology & Compatibility
Full support: Completely compatible with LS25, fully multiplayer-ready (including synchronization) and available in German and English.
No conflicts: Fully compatible with AutoDrive, Courseplay, QuickVehicleSelect and Realistic Harvesting. The F1 help adapts dynamically.
Included: Mod structure (`modDesc.xml` + Lua scripts), sample implement XML and HUD overlay.
V1.1.3.1
This update brings a cleaner cab display, more responsive PTO warnings and important dedicated server fixes to Dynamic PTO RPM.
NEW FEATURES
Redesigned Cab Panel
– Smaller, cleaner HUD with a dark background and green Dynamic PTO RPM header.
– New icons for engine status, PTO gear, operating status and road mode.
– Live RPM, selected gear, operating status and rev bar remain fully functional.
Intelligent PTO Warning System
Warning triangle appears when something isn’t right.
Detects PTO speed too low or too high, baler overload, tractor stall and insufficient horsepower.
RPM display changes colour when a warning is active, making problems easier to spot.
On-Screen Warning Messages
Clear warnings now appear in the centre of your screen when needed:
PTO TOO LOW
PTO TOO HIGH
BALER OVERLOAD
TRACTOR STALLED
NOT ENOUGH HP
Warnings remain visible until the PTO speed returns to the correct operating range, helping you keep an eye on your equipment while working.
Dedicated Server & Multiplayer Sync
Hand throttle now synchronises correctly between players.
Behaviour settings are synchronised across multiplayer.
Players joining an existing session receive the current RPM and settings instead of starting with outdated values.
FIXES & IMPROVEMENTS
Engine-Off RPM Fix: RPM now correctly drops to 0 when the engine is switched off, instead of getting stuck at the idle reading, such as 386 RPM.
Low-Speed PTO Detection: Activating the PTO while the shaft is stopped or running too slowly now triggers the appropriate warning.
Improved Gear-Speed Detection: The low-speed warning remains active until the PTO reaches the required speed for the selected gear.
