Fix for Cow Barn with feeding robot not producing enough TMR

[Pentele]

Just a tip for people like me who struggled to feed their cows and/or buffaloes. In the base game the barn with the feeding robot can produce 1500 TMR each in game hour, but since FS25 introduced pastures that can be modified and that changes how many animals each barn can hold, suddenly that 1500 TMR/hour is not enough for barns with 100 or more animals.

So to fix this, I looked into the files and found the line that manages how much the robot produces each hour. If you want to have over 100 cows/buffaloes and do not want to manually mix TMR with the wagon, here's how to "upgrade" your feeding robot:

As always, make sure to make a backup of any files you are going to edit and anything you do, it's at your own risk :D

The file can be found at your Steam installation location (windows 10): Steam > steamapps > common > Farming Simulator 25 > data > placeables > lely > vectorGarage
And the file you are looking for is: lelyVectorGarage.xml
Open that with your favorite text editor, I used Notepad++

The line is at row 12:
<fillPlane node="fillVolume" capacity="1500" />

That 1500 is how much TMR gets done in each hour. Change it to whatever you want, I just doubled mine to 3000 to suit my needs and save changes. Now load up your saved game or start a new and your feeding robot should produce that much, provided it has all four different ingredients for it.

Have fun with your massive cow barns :)

Well, perhaps you could add it there even if it does not exist? I mean production buildings can be made to not have shared throughput by just adding the line
Just remember to backup your files before trying editing stuff ;)

Thank you for this thread. I found required line and changed daily amount that robot mixes exactly as you said and now TMR in a barn is filling up faster then being consumed. Have an award for this valuable advice!

Good to hear that you got it working :)

You say the barn with robot produce 1500 TMR per hour, so thats 36000 per day.
But if you have set that 1 month = 3 days, is that 36000 per month or actual per day?
Probably is then 36000 per month. So barn with robot can support like 102 cows.

The way I see it, changing a month to be more than one day just stretches things out. So if 1 day = 1 month produces 36000 TMR per day (or per month), then 3 day = 1 month should do 12000 per day, so the total amount for a month is still the same.
