12 Awesome Script Mods and Gameplay Mods for FS22
Consider yourself lucky if you play Farming Simulator 22 (FS22) on a PC or a Mac. The fact is that you’re able to add script mods to the game.
A lot of these mods change the gameplay. That’s why they also are called gameplay mods. Below, I share my favorites.
1. Automatic Milk Sale
I love most aspects of Farming Simulator 22. However, some farm chores are getting somewhat repetitive and tiresome.
Take transporting milk, for example.
Getting inside my truck, hooking up the tanker trailer, and delivering the milk to the dairy was fun. More and more lately, however, I’ve longed for a mod that automatically delivers the milk.
Finally, an FS22 mod like that is available.
The Automatic Milk Sale mod does what the name says it does. Each morning, at 6 o’clock, the milk is sold automatically, much like it was in both FS15 and FS17.
Note that the mod will sell the milk. It cannot distribute to your factories, for example.
- Mod function: Sells milk automatically.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Vertex Dezign.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
2. Manure Fix
In FS22, solid manure is basically free fertilizer for your fields. Do you want more of it? Then this mod is for you.
The Manure Fix mod restores your animal’s manure production to more realistic levels.
- Without the mod, your animals produce manure based on the amount of straw consumed.
- With the mod enabled, they will produce more manure based on real-life calculations.
The result is more manure to spread on your fields, saving you money. You can cut back on the amount of fertilizer you need to buy.
It’s an easy, set-and-forget mod. You just have to download it and activate it within your game save. That’s all there is to it.
- Mod function: Animals produce more manure.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: HoT Online Team, Zombold.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
3. Additional Field Info
This excellent tiny mod lets you learn more about the fields and the lands you own. It also adds more information about the areas you don’t own yet.
This is the extra information you’ll get with the Additional Field Info mod:
- The farmland and field areas in hectares or acres.
- You’ll see the price (per acres or hectares) of the fields you don’t own.
- The mod also displays the potential harvest quantity, yield, and yield bonus.
All the extra information is available inside the HUD. To see it, just visit the field or the farmland you want to know more about.
And yes, the mod works great with the Precision Farming DLC.
- Mod function: More information about your lands and fields.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Yumi.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
4. Dusty Lands Extension
If you’re like me, you’re spending a lot of time on YouTube, hunting down real-life farming videos. I’ve noticed many things that differ from the game to what farming looks like in the real world.
Take the amount of dust during a wheat harvest, for example.
Yes, there is dust in FS22, but nowhere near the amount you might see in real-world fields. The Dusty Lands Extension does something about it.
The mod adds more dust to fieldwork and a lot of it. And if you think it produces too much, you can always dial it down a notch. The dust amount is customizable, you see.
- It’s possible to set how much dust a wide range of tools produces.
- You can set the dust amount individually for balers, harvesters, cultivators, etc.
My favorite feature, however, is how the mod treats dust during and after rainfalls and snowfalls.
For example, there is no dust during rainfall or the first couple of hours after it.
- Mod function: Adds more dust to the game.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: FSG Modding.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
5. Government Subsidy
Government Subsidy for FS22 may be considered a money cheat. Well, although it has the potential to add unlimited money to the game, it isn’t cheating.
You see, many real-life farmers receive some financial support from their governments. This is what the mod simulates.
It has to be said that one of the free money options with this mod is a bit inflated. I mean, a subsidy of 100 million dollars per year? I don’t think any farmer receives amounts like that. The other option of 100,000 per year, on the other hand, is more in line with reality.
I’ve taken a closer look at the Government Subsidy mod on this page. Here are some of the key facts.
- Mod function: Gives you free money.
- Category: Generators.
- Modder: Realismus Modding.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
6. PlaceableExtended
Do you have problems placing objects exactly where you want on your map in FS22? Then the PlaceableExtended mod will help you a lot.
The mod eases the strict rules for placing various objects on your farmlands. It does so without altering the game’s physics; it won’t cause errors or performance issues.
It’s a straightforward mod to use. All you have to do is download and activate it. Afterward, you’ll be able to place objects much closer to others in the build mode. You can even put one object inside another.
The mod is available in the in-game modhub. I’ve written a short guide on how to use it.
- Mod function: Easier objects placements.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: KR-Softwares.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
7. Place Anywhere
The Place Anywhere mod is the second option for more accessible placements of objects and buildings in the FS22 build mode. It works the same way as the PlaceableExtended mod.
I’ve used and written about both mods; here’s my guide for the Place Anywhere mod. I’ve not managed to find any differences between the two mods. They do the same thing, and they do it remarkably well.
Similar mods for FS19 were limited to only placing stuff directly on the ground. In FS22, the Place Anywhere mod makes it possible to place objects inside buildings with floors. Yes, the PlaceableExtended mod does this too.
The only difference between the two similar mods is that PlaceableExtended is available in the in-game modhub, while Place Anywhere is not.
- Mod function: Easier objects placements.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Ifko[nator].
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
8. Vehicle Control Addon
The Vehicle Control Addon mod for FS22 is fantastic for many reasons. It adds more features to all the vehicles in the game, like inching and multiple cruise control speeds that are selectable. The mod also mimics the throttle-by-joystick option that you’ll find in many modern tractors.
If you install this mod, you also have more options for the player camera and your vehicle’s steering.
More important for many players: Vehicle Control Addon adds GPS functionality to FS22. It has an automated steering option resembling GPS-controlled steering used by farmers worldwide.
The mod is quite extensive. It might take some time to get used to it. That’s why I’ve written a guide on installing and using it.
- Mod function: GPS, realistic vehicle controls.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Mogli12.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
9. Guidance Steering
Wopster’s Guidance Steering mod has made a comeback in FS22. It brings realistic GPS-based guidance steering to the game. It makes fieldwork less stressful as it makes driving in straight lines as easy as ABC.
The FS22 version of the mod is the closest you’ll get to a real-life automated steering system for farming vehicles. You need to buy the GPS module in the shop, and it works by creating AB points, much like real counterparts do.
For now, it won’t do automatic turns, though. Neither will it let you record headland routes. Such features will hopefully be added in future updates.
Don’t know how to use the mod? No worries, friend. Here’s my Guidance Steering guide.
- Mod function: Automated steering.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Wopster.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
10. Manual Attach
Do you want FS22 to be more realistic? Then you need the Manual Attach mod. You see, connecting real-world vehicles and equipment is rarely done with a click of a button.
Hooking a trailer to a tractor, for instance, requires a hands-on approach. This is what the Manual Attach mod simulates. And it does it magnificently.
Instead of just backing your tractor up to the tool and pressing a button, you have to get out of your vehicle and attach the tool, the Power Take-off (PTO), and the hoses manually.
The mod is easy and fun to use. Still, I’ve written a short guide on using it for anyone new to manual handling of implements in the game.
- Mod function: Realistic equipment handling.
- Category: Gameplay.
- Modder: Wopster.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
11. Power Tools
No list of recommended FS22 script mods is complete without a cheat mod. The Power Tools mod for FS22 adds some powerful cheats to the game. It does it without altering the game code.
Instead, it uses functions that Giants Software has programmed into the game.
The mod is based on the FS22 developer mode. By enabling the developer console, you can use commands to cheat your way to more money, for example.
The Power Tools mod lets you use some of the essential commands without writing them yourself. Here’s what you can do with it:
- Remove the HUD and have your character fly.
- Add money and fill trailers, tanks, and tools.
- Make your character super strong.
Yes, the mod can be used for cheating, but it can also be valuable for other modders and content creators. If you want to know more, I’ve written a guide for it.
- Mod function: Easy cheats.
- Category: Miscellaneous.
- Modder: w33zl.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
12. Mobile Workshop
Are you tired of driving your vehicles to the workshop every time they need repairs or when you want to customize them?
With the Mobile Workshop mod for FS22, you can take your workshop with you wherever you go.
Using the mod is as easy as can be. When you’re inside the vehicle, jump out of it and press N on your keyboard. This opens the workshop menu:
- You can sell your vehicle (note that you’ll get a higher price at the store, though.)
- Does your vehicle need repairs or a new coat of paint? No problems.
- You can also customize the vehicle; for example, add new tires to it.
Yes, you can use the Mobile Workshop for your equipment too.
- Mod function: Easy Repairs, Customization.
- Category: Rockstar.
- Modder: w33zl.
- Platforms: PC and Mac.
