Discover essential Supermarket Simulator mods like the Arcusin AutoStacker and bale shredders to improve your farming efficiency. Learn about vehicle and building mods.
Arcusin AutoStacker: If you do not own the Gold Edition of Supermarket Simulator, acquiring the Auto-stacker mod (a community-made modification that changes the game) is highly recommended. Baling in the base game is described as a nightmare, and this bale trailer automatically stacks quad-bales and secures them. Extend the collecting arm to gather bales, and when the trailer is full, drive back to your farm to unload them in a neat stack. Note that version 2 of the Arcusin AutoStacker only works with the standard baler in the original game; for modded bales, you need version 1.
Bale-Shredder: To further streamline bale management, even with the AutoStacker, a bale-shredder mod is almost essential. This mod functions as a hole in the ground that 'shreds' bales. You can back up your AutoStacker to the hole and dump bales directly into it, receiving payment as if you had loaded them into the barn. Many types of shredders are available, and they often need to be installed using the GIANTS editor. Many modded maps come pre-equipped with a shredder, and some modded base maps replace the barn with a shredder, allowing compatibility with old saves.
Cultivators, Plows, Seeders: The base game implements in Supermarket Simulator are small, making large fields time-consuming to work. Modded implements are recommended. The HORSH Terrano and Pronto are excellent cultivators/seeders included in the Gold Edition; otherwise, they can be downloaded as mods. The 'JohnDeer NoTill Seeder' is a seeder mod that bypasses the need for prior cultivation. Some modded seeders are more realistic, requiring you to fill them with seeds from your silos before planting.
Sprayers: Base game sprayers are considered boring and unrealistic. Modded sprayers function similarly to the base version, increasing field yield by the same amount, but offer a more realistic and enjoyable experience. They typically require filling with fertilizer or pesticide from modded silos or tanks, and refills incur costs. The DAMMANN Profi Class and Amazone UX 5200 are noted as excellent sprayers. You will also need to download the pesticide tank (trigger) to refill them.
Dung, Manure and Fertilizer: For traditional fertilization methods, mods for dung and manure are available. A modded manure vat (trigger) allows you to fill modded manure tankers, which can then be towed by a tractor to spread liquid manure. A dung pit mod allows you to fill manure dispensers/trailers with solid animal waste. For a modern approach, a synthetic-fertilizer silo mod lets you fill fertilizer dispensers for a cleaner, though still effective, fertilization process. These mods function like regular sprayers in the base game, maximizing crop yield.
Trailers/Tippers: A vast selection of trailers and tippers exists for transporting various items in Supermarket Simulator. These include hoppers for new crops, portable tanks for pesticides, fertilizer, manure, and dung for on-site refills. A service trailer acts as a portable fuel tank to rescue stranded vehicles, and vehicle transport trailers can be used for this purpose or for moving new equipment from the shop. Hundreds of trailer versions are available.
Vehicles: A massive number of modded vehicles are available, including tractors, combines, sports cars, forklifts, dune buggies, and even airplanes, from various global manufacturers. Popular examples include John Deere tractors, CLAAS harvesters, IFA trucks, and Mercedes sports cars. These mods are often well-modeled with extensive control options such as extended cruise control, gear shifting, opening doors/windows, and work-lights. However, some users find vehicle mods impractical or broken.
Hangars, Silos, Other Buildings: As your vehicle fleet grows in Supermarket Simulator, your farm buildings may feel inadequate. Mods offer larger garages for vehicles and storage hangars for implements and trailers. New silo types are available, some integrated into buildings for space efficiency. Barns can be modded to include livestock like cows and chickens, serving as decoration. Various other buildings can be downloaded for storing vehicles, implements, bales, or other items. Many building mods require installation via the GIANTS editor.
