Do your animal pens get dumped by their manure heaps when you reload your save? No warning, no goodbye — the shit just ups and leaves. Your cows have been putting in the work, and frankly, they deserve better.
ReconnectManureStorage helps everyone get their shit back together. It reconnects manure heaps to their rightful pens after each game load, because no animal should have to wonder where yesterday’s output went.
I wanted to call this “Give Me My Shit Back”, but I was told some mod portals have standards.
The Problem
FS25 has a base game bug where manure heaps and pits lose their connection to animal pens after reloading a savegame. When that happens, manure production stalls — the pen can’t offload manure to the heap, and the heap just sits there collecting dust instead of dung.
The Fix
After all placeables are fully loaded and finalized (Mission00:onStartMission), the mod re-scans every manure heap for nearby animal pen stations using getExtendableUnloadingStationsInRange and getExtendableLoadingStationsInRange. Any missing connections are re-established.
The scan is idempotent — already-connected heaps are skipped. Zero performance impact during gameplay; runs once at load.

i have this issue with my cows milk production can you make one for animals in general please and thank you
Damn i never knew thats what was going on, i thought i was just doing something wrong or having mod conflicts when i would place a manure heap and the next day it would say i didnt have one attatched to the pen. Thanks for giving me my shit back!
I like getting your shit back, but I guess some have worse standards then others. A spade a spade and so on is more my style.
