Multiple active missions?

[Darkspear]

Why cant we have more than 1 active mission?
I want to send my harvester and tractor trailer to 1 field.
I want to send my 2nd tractor and cultivator to another field
Heck i want to send my 3rd tractor or selfpropelled sprayer to field 3 for fertilizing.

Can we please have more active missions?
not unlimited, just 2 or 3 active missions max

If you have you were able to do more than 1 contract at a time and you used helpers to complete those missions you would not make any money from them as the helper did all the work so the helper would keep all the money. This was tried and tested on one of the live streams. They had a helper do all the work and only made like 20.00 off of the contract.

Active contracts = Players on the server !!!

Because they are for the player to do. You are the hired help that does the work.

It all depends on the size of your tool. and how long it takes to complete a contract.

You hire a worker to do a contract to plow with a 2.5m plow that takes the AI 3 hours to complete. and you only get paid 8k for the contract. Pay 4k to lease the equipment and end up paying your helper well over 4k. yea your going to loose money on that contract.

But you take a large field spraying contract. bring in your own sprayer that does 150 feet at 15mph. And your going to finish that $17k contract in 5 minutes. Paying $500 to your helper. Another $5k for herbiside, but your going to make $11k in 5 minutes.

Same goes for cultivate, plow jobs, seeder jobs. Once you start buying the most effecient tool, you can have the AI operate them on contracts for profit.

There are many times I wish I could do muliple contracts. However This would just mean longer periods of time when there is nothing to do because there is no contractcts up since they where all completed already adn we waiting for the next growth cycle.

Thanks for that mod Yipsi. I've been looking for something like that.

I agree that more contracts acvite at a time woule be nice. I've had many occasions where a transport mission route happens to pass the drop-off point for another transport mission I could have taken.

Plus, all of these assumptions are that you're playing solo. If you have multiple people working a farm, multiple contracts can really boost your income.

This is so wrong. I use helpers all the time for the contracts with no issue. I get paid just fine.

This thread is from release. the stream he watched was a pre launch stream. The contract was for cotton. back then cotton paid really bad. which resulted in no money from the contract after leasing the equipment and paying the AI.

A lot of things have changed since release. Even doing regular contracts back then using a helper you still could make a bunch of money, even on hard difficulty. On the contract side not a whole lot has changed a bunch, other than some well known tweaks. Overall I would say the base game is the same.

Using the Multiple Contracts mod, I took 25 contracts and borrowed all of the equipment for each. Using a combination of Courseplay and Follow Me, I put over 30 vehicles to work at the same time in the respective fields.

Many a dollar was made that day - but still couldn't break the game.
