The biggest sugar beet harvester from giants default in-game stuff is Ropa Tiger 6 XL, its self propelled harvester doing the sugar beet topping off first, then lifting the beets off the ground, storing them temporarily in a ugh space on the harvester, then overloading into a trailer. This vehicle works pretty well, no issues with is so far.
Ropa Tiger 6 XL, 4m header, 2 vehicles with 2 headlands using lands field work mode in FS22 Courseplay is not enough headlands, this sugar beet harvester cannot turn in one go, it has to do one back and forth shuffle. Use more headlands, 3 seems to be the good option.
Any larger field than hectare or two and you should increase the number of sugar beet harvesters from 2 to 3 or 4, plus all additional sugar beet tractor trailers (or if you go with semi-truck beet trailers).
Rain does NOT prevent you from harvesting sugar beets.
I'll keep crop destruction OFF, not to cheat but for the simple fact that sugar beet harvesting with tiny header widths is such a tricky task that you save yourself a lot of frustration when you don't have to worry about FS22 Courseplay/AutoDrive worker messing up and disabling the mode which kicks in crop destruction automatically. I never drive on crop, unless FS22 Courseplay/AutoDrive fails.
Instead of getting a sugar beet storage building placeable mod which holds lousy 800k liters or so, its just way better to dump the sugar beets on the ground in some open area. Yes of course you have to pick them up once its time to move them either to sell or use elsewhere, that has to be done with wheel loader + bucket or some sort of belt system from Grimme for example, or that Ropa Maus 5 self propelled machine which picks stuff from ground and dumps into trailers. I don't exactly like this ground dumping method because its not regular old school Courseplay/AutoDrive/Bin/Silo/Trigger compatible way, but considering one sugar beet storage building placeable hosts 800k liters and your average sugar beet harvest yields more like 8 MILLION liters, yeah, you do the math how many buildings you'd have to buy and record all those FS22 AutoDrive waypoint target points for them
Questions:
- does large terrain cultivator_density and fruit_density image resolution make harvesting (taking the tops off) sugar beets difficult?
- is ropa tiger 6 xl the largest sugar beet harvester available, are there any mod's that have better specifications?
- what tractor pulled "toppers" and beet lifters (harvesters) mod's are there?
- beet piler placeable mod would be awesome, where can we get one?
Please share your sugar beet harvesting methods and experiences, any good modifications to be used as well, would be much appreciated, thanks.
