Fliegl Timber Runner Autoload trailer problem

[tony.rayner]

Good afternoon guys, I hope this post finds you all well and good.

after watching some very good videos on the autoloading trailers I decided to clear an area at the side of one of my grass fields to maximize my field size and maxamize my grass yeild.

so I chopped down all the trees around the edge of the field, and plouged a couple of paths and now its a nice size totally square field for grass, Ive ground all the stumps down and it looks spot on but now my problem has started.

I downloaded the mod "Fliegl Timber Runner Autoload Trailer (V1.0.0.17) and leased the trailer and a lorry unit to pull it, I have the correct menu items now:

(B) Start/Stop Autoload
(O) Left/Right Side load
(X) Start Unload

But for the life of me I cant get the trailer to autoload the trees Ive cut down, Ive cut them down and trimmed off all the branches and Ive cut each tree into 2 halfs so they are all the correct lenght of the new auto load trailer but nothing is happening??

any idea what Im doing wrong please

thanks in advance for any help and advice

I don't actually have this mod installed, but I do have experience with other autoload mods. Your problem could be a few things, that I can think of. You may have to set it in 'working position', as this happens with bale autoloaders, and you may need to select the length of the logs you want to load. It may also be stuck in 'unload,' this has happened to me with stock trailers that could not load because the door was closed, but the trailer was still in the unloading position. You could also be using the wrong side, make sure the problem is with each side. Also, even though this one is kind of a no-brainer, make sure you trailer is the UAL one, and not the stock one.

I'll download it from modhub and do some testing, you may want to make sure you are not having any mod conflicts.

EDIT: I could not find a mod for a timber runner autoload on the mod hub, could you link me the mod you are using?

tony.rayner the trees u cut down probable still have branches on them n the auto-load trailer will not picking them up like some did in fs15 to found out get the chainsaw out n crouch(left ctrl) walk down the trunk while running the chainsaw every so often thats what i did n it worked

tony it is z to unload not x and one needs to be parallel to the logs to load. pine trees work best
others are a bit iffy.
