How To Reset Vehicles In Farming Simulator 2019

Okay, so you've done it again, huh? Managed to get your combine harvester wedged between a tree and what appears to be a very judgmental-looking fence post? Don't worry, we've ALL been there. Farming Simulator 2019 is awesome, but let's be honest, sometimes our virtual driving skills... well, they leave something to be desired. So, how do we fix this little mess? Time to reset that vehicle!

Think of resetting your vehicle as the game's way of saying, "Oops, didn't see that ditch! Let's just rewind this a bit." It's a total lifesaver, and thankfully, pretty darn easy.

Option 1: The Magic Map

This is probably the most common and convenient method. Open your map (usually by pressing the 'Esc' key or the designated map button on your controller... you do know where that is, right?).

See those little icons representing your vehicles? Yeah, those guys. Hover your mouse over the offending piece of equipment – the one currently mocking you from its precarious position. A handy-dandy little menu should pop up. Look for a button that says something along the lines of "Reset" or "Reset Vehicle."

Click it. Seriously, just click it! Don't overthink it. Are you sure? Yes. Click it. BAM! Your vehicle should magically reappear back at the farm (or the nearest owned location), ready for another round of virtual farming fun. Pretty sweet, huh?

Just a little tip, sometimes the game likes to be a bit finicky. If the reset button is greyed out, that means you might have something actively using the vehicle – like, maybe, you’re still trying to drive it while staring at the map. Make sure you're actually out of the vehicle before trying to reset it. Common mistake, no judgment!

Option 2: The Escape Hatch (Menu Method)

Okay, so maybe the map isn't your thing (we won't judge... much). There's another way! This involves a bit more menu navigation, but hey, options are good, right?

First, hit that 'Esc' key again to bring up the main menu (unless you rebound it to something crazy like 'F12' for some reason… in which case, why?). Look for a tab or section labeled something like "Vehicles," "Garage," or even just your farm name. It depends slightly on the version of Farming Simulator 2019 you are playing, but you know what they say, when in doubt, click everything!

Within that section, you should find a list of all your vehicles. Find the one causing you grief. Select it. Prepare to be amazed (again!). A button labeled "Reset" should appear. Hit it!

And just like that, your mechanical mishap is history. Poof! Gone! It's like it never even happened. Except maybe for the lingering feeling of agricultural inadequacy... but we'll ignore that for now.

Important Considerations (Because There's Always Something, Isn't There?)

Okay, a few things to keep in mind. Resetting your vehicle does have a small cost associated with it. It's usually not much, but be aware that you're not getting off completely scot-free for your little "oopsie." Think of it as a virtual towing fee.

Also, anything attached to the vehicle when you reset it? Yeah, that usually stays put. So, if you're dragging a trailer full of valuable grain when you get stuck, you'll want to detach it before you hit that reset button. Otherwise, you'll have a lovely grain-filled trailer sitting all alone in the middle of nowhere, patiently waiting for you to come rescue it. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Finally, sometimes, just sometimes, the game gets buggy. If neither of these methods works, try restarting the game. I know, the oldest trick in the book, but hey, it often works. If that doesn't work, you might be dealing with a more serious issue, and it might be time to consult the Farming Simulator forums or support channels. But let's hope it doesn't come to that!

So, there you have it! Resetting vehicles in Farming Simulator 2019 is a breeze. Now go forth and farm, knowing that even when things go horribly, hilariously wrong, you have a reset button to save the day. Happy farming!
