Radial Vehicle Switcher V1.0.2

Radial Vehicle Switcher V1.0.2

This mod replaces the standard sequential vehicle switching with an animated radial menu. By holding the Tab key, a graphical interface appears where all vehicles are automatically organized into categories: tractors, harvesters, trucks, loaders, and cars.

The menu is designed for real-time farm management. Vehicles operated by AI workers are highlighted with a special blue indicator and grouped into a dedicated category. For harvesters and trailers, the menu displays dynamic fill level bars including exact percentages and crop icons, allowing you to instantly monitor fleet status.

Note for controller users: you will need to reassign the joystick axes in the game settings. By default, the menu is opened using the RT + LT combination. Also, selecting a vehicle now requires holding the button (releasing Tab no longer triggers a selection).
