When I first saw that the Bednar MM 7000 was being included in the game, I started planning this machine. One of my favorite mods that I spent time on in FS22 but never released was my edit of the John Deere HX20 by Black Sheep Modding - which had most of the same features as this mower. Now that the Bednar is part of base game, I'm hoping that Giants will allow me to release my re-write of the existing machine.
From a modding persective - I've re-structured the entire model, making the "wings" more flexible to contour to the ground better. I've added mowing functionality to the machine (which was previously a mulcher), as well as stump cutting.
In regards to stump cutting - my biggest gripe with base-game stump cutters is that most are either "point" devices (with almost no working area) or they include cultivating / plowing / field creating functionality, which isn't always needed or desired. The BatWing has work-mode options for "brush hog" (mowing + stump cutting), stump grinding (without damaging the ground), or even "destroyer" mode (mulching + stump cutting).
If Bruce Wayne designed a do-everything, "swiss-army knife" mower, this would be it. With multiple activities that you can change on the fly, this implement can mow, mulch, grind... just about anything.
Work Modes:
- Mower (mower with wide spreading)
- Brush Hog (mower + stump grinder)
- Swather (mower with a drop swath)
- Mulcher (normal mulching)
- Stump Grinding (stump grinder only)
- Destroyer (mulcher + stump grinder)
