SlurryPipeSystem v1.0.2


SlurryPipeSystem v1.0.2
Slurry Pipe System
Replaces vanilla drive-in slurry filling with a realistic physical pipe and pump system. Connect fill arms or pipes to a slurry source, run a PTO-driven pump, build pressure, and control the flow before anything moves.
Controls:
Pump On/Off: starts the pump. Required before any pumped flow.
Pipe Valve: opens the pipe circuit for filling or discharging.
Spreader Valve: opens the spreader discharge.
Direction: switches between fill and discharge.
Features:
Open-pit fill arms with slurry surface detection
Rubber boot port docking
Multi-segment pipe chains and direct pipe couplings
Tanker-to-tanker transfer and nurse tank operation
Conduit (PTO) pump trailer for chain-to-chain transfer
Pressure model: vacuum, high-volume-pump and open-top vessel types
Slurry physics: it thickens, crusts and can block spreaders; mix or add water to keep it flowing
Dribble bars and band spreaders with per-outlet blockage and a spreader HUD
Fertiliser / herbicide sprayer support
Water intake from map lakes and ponds
Optional PTO shear bolt
Coloured pipes, saved per game
Works with LIQUIDMANURE and DIGESTATE
Compatible with Manual Attach
Multiplayer compatible
Covers all changes since version V1.0.1.9. Existing save games can continue to be used without any changes.
The full list can be found in the file RELEASE_NOTES_V1.0.2.0.md included with the mod.
New additions:
Pressure and vacuum: Vacuum tanks maintain their vacuum, which dictates the flow of liquid. This includes suction via high-capacity pump lines, backpressure during application, and drawing slurry from a pit using an open hose or pipe end.
Pressure gauges: Added to the Supercis 800 and Kaweco Profi 2 models.
Chemical mixing and cleaning: Concentrates are mixed with water within the sprayer; the concentration is maintained throughout the entire system (tanks, lines) all the way to application in the field. Also includes a multi-stage cleaning process for contaminated sprayers, as well as a placeable cleaning station.
New SPS-compatible vehicles: MKS 8 Dual Tank, 550 Water/Chem Bowser, Supercis 800, Kotte FRC 65, and Amazone UX5201 Super.
Water and suction strainers: When a hose or pipe end is submerged in a lake, river, pond, or watercourse, water can only be drawn in through an appropriate strainer (small strainers for water/milk, large ones for slurry). These strainers can be carried on the vehicle using a dedicated mount.
Leaks and spills from lines: Open hose or pipe ends left on the ground may leak, creating puddles.
Unified standards for reach and coupling radius across all connection points.
Settings menu: All SPS options are now consolidated in one central location. New guide: SPS_README_08_New_in_1.0.2.0.md.
Fixed issues
The spray jet on the washout device (washout boom) is now displayed correctly even when using “Soil & Fertilizer” chemicals.
“Soil & Fertilizer” IBC containers can once again be connected to water pipes and spray hoses.
It is now possible again to pick up a suction strainer or a stowed hose at the connection point of the MKS 8.
Couplings at tank openings can now also be used in “physical pipe mode.”
The handle at the cleaning station now correctly follows the valve, even when no hose is connected.
