SOLUTION: Bugged Contracts (Stuck at 20% or completion % doesn't fill)

[kimmy]

This is the solution I found for fixing the bugged contracts. In my gameplay, the harvest part didn't progress the completion % bar after i have completed and delivered/sold the harvest.


==============================================

DISCLAIMER:

I would consider this as a cheat, since you'll be editing save game files to 'fix' the bugged contract. I'll put the steps in spoilers. Use accordingly.


===============================================

1. Open ..\Documents\My Games\FarmingSimulator2025\savegame1.....savegameX
   the savegame number corresponds to your save game slot inside the game. The one on top is savegame1
   
2. Find and open/edit missions.xml with notepad or any text editor
   
3. A contract will look like this:
   
   <cultivateMission uniqueId="mission27d028d0ce4cdd8a85fdf344318d72fa" status="CREATED" finishState="NONE">
   <info reward="0" reimbursement="0.000000" completion="0.000000"/>
   <vehicles spawned="false" group="2"/>
   <endDate endDay="10" endDayTime="86399999"/>
   <field id="42"/>
   
   You can verify that it's the mission you're looking for via the 'field id' and that it matches the field # in your bugged contract, and the contract type (on the example above it's a cultivate contract).
   
   
4. edit/replace status="xxxxxxxxxxx" finishState="xxxxxxxxxx" to status="FINISHED" finishState="SUCCESS"
   
5. save missions.xml
   
6. reload saved game.
   
   I've tried it both exiting FS25 then reloading my saved game, and totally without exiting my gameplay (i.e. i'm still playing the game while i edit missions.xml). Worked for me on both occasions. I
   
   Yeah, this gives you the power to complete all of the missions without doing it. lmao

It works great , Thanks mate

This is one of the only things I don't like about FS25 so far.

Requiring contracts fully be at 100% before they complete is iffy. Harvest contracts are fine in this regard, but contracts like weeding and fertilizing should be brought down to 92%-ish.

Why? ALL contracts get to 100% before you finish doing the task. Lowering it even more is completely pointless.

Is it really cheating if you've done all the work? Just removed stones from a large field, progress showed 0%. So, I digitally sued the other party and won. That ain't cheating.

As I said in my post, it's mainly only for weeding and fertilizing because It's easy to lose track of where you've been for very large fields. Assisted steering can solve this, but it can still be a pain.

no, if you already did the work.. which was the intention of this post.. To just fix the bugged contracts. But as I also said, you can use this to complete contracts without doing any work.

This method helped with removing vehicles as well thank you.

Thanks, same issue (with vehicule that doesn't disapear). I will test this !

Hope there will be soon a patch to fix this issue :-/

I've had this issue a couple of times (Field 77 on Riverbend), I've raised a feedback report each time. Hopefully all of you who've had it have done the same. That way they can get it patched earlier as they will know it's a big issue...

[WhosTheDaddy]

Encountered this issue as well, spent some time harvesting it so this helped.

Had to use this myself. was stuck on 97%

Had one yesterday finished at 95%. No more crop tom harvest or deliver. I think it was due to rain during harvest, and you cant wait or skip time or the job will expire.

Just another thing on the ever growing list of "stuff we forgot"

Exact same thing happened to me. None of the harvesting actually counted towards completion on field 77 harvesting Canola. Only delivery counted. Reached 100% field transported however contract was just at 20%.
