Farming Simulator 25 Known Issues, Workarounds and Fixes

A mod relies on Lua loadstring

The update disables Lua loadstring for security reasons. A mod that depended on that function needs compatible code; the official note is not an instruction to re-enable it. [1]

GIANTS also adds a getUniqueUserId warning ahead of future removal. That is advance compatibility notice, not confirmation the function has already been removed. [1]

Stutter immediately after updating

GIANTS warns that the first launch after a major update can stutter while shaders are recompiled, especially with mods or custom graphics settings. That warning explains a specific post-update condition; it is not proof that persistent stutter has the same cause. [1]

Seeder will not plant the chosen crop

With seasonal growth enabled, planting outside the crop’s sowing season is a documented restriction. [2]

Documented steps

1. Check the crop calendar for the selected crop before retrying. [2]
2. Confirm the crop selection on the filled seeder before lowering and activating it. [2]

Second fertilizer pass does not add a stage

The standard two-pass fertilization method requires a growth stage between applications. [3]

Documented steps

1. Apply once after sowing and wait until plants begin to sprout before the second pass. [3]
