Advanced Damage System overhauls vehicle wear, breakdowns, and maintenance in Farming Simulator 25. Your machine’s reliability depends on how you operate it and how well you maintain it, while repairs take time and require maintenance planning.
BETA – Open Testing
This is a test version intended exclusively for testing. It may contain bugs, unfinished features, and compatibility issues. Stability and bug-free operation are not guaranteed. Always back up your savegames and preferably use a separate test save.
Features
- Individual Components
ADS now simulates individual components instead of entire systems. Each vehicle has its own set of components with specific wear rules, failures, and repair or replacement options. - Consumables and Maintenance
Engine oil, hydraulic oil, coolant, filters, batteries, and lubrication points all require attention. Neglecting maintenance can lead to costly failures. - Do-It-Yourself Servicing
Replace consumables yourself using canisters, an oil dispenser, replacement batteries, air filter boxes, and other maintenance items. Air Blowers and Grease Guns help you prepare your machines for work. - Reworked Workshops
Dealers have service queues and warranty repairs. Mobile workshops charge additional fees and require waiting for a mechanic. In your own workshop, you can hire staff and purchase equipment. - Vehicle Tuning
Upgrade your machines with chip tuning, transmission adjustments, protective body coatings, and more. - Redesigned Interface
A completely reworked interface brings together component condition, maintenance, and workshop services. - Maintenance Has Consequences
Returning leased equipment in poor condition can result in substantial fines. Neglecting maintenance can also void your warranty.
