Cold Start – Realistic Engine Behaviour

Enhance your Farming Simulator experience with realistic cold start mechanics and dynamic engine temperatures. Vehicles now begin at the ambient temperature, warm up during operation, and retain heat after shutdown. Experience the difference between cold engines and fully warmed machines, adding depth and realism to your gameplay without frustration.

Features:
- Ambient temperature-based starts
- Dynamic engine warm-up system
- Heat retention after shutdown
- Reduced performance while cold
- Stall risk if pushed too hard when cold
- Weather-sensitive behaviour
- Multiplayer compatible

How It Works:
Cold engines need time to reach optimal temperature before full performance is achieved. Machines recently used stay warmer after shutdown, easing later restarts and enhancing realism. Cold mornings are harsher, while warmer weather facilitates easier starts and operations.

Compatibility:
Compatible with all motorized vehicles. Suitable for both singleplayer and multiplayer modes. This mod is a work in progress and will be updated over time. It has successfully passed the initial testing phase.
