Farming Simulator 25: The Basic Overview of HUD & Game Menu

The HUD (Heads-Up Display) in Farming Simulator shows essential information and interface elements on the screen. Those elements allow the player to manage the game easily. We’ve provided a quick rundown to help you better understand how it works and what it shows.

What’s in the HUD?

Let’s get familiar with HUD elements. In the top left corner, you’ll see context-specific controls. In the top right corner, you’ll find information about the weather, your current account balance, your calendar, and your date.

In the bottom left corner, a mini map shows all your surroundings without you having to exit the current screen and open the whole map. Meanwhile, the bottom right corner shows where you are, like the land information and similar details.

When you’re in a vehicle, the HUD changes and displays the speedometer, remaining fuel, your vehicle’s wear indicator, and vehicle load. Remember to ignore these metrics and care for your machinery before facing vehicle problems that will empty your pockets!
