Farming and Friends Controls

Controls Overview

Farming and Friends on PC uses a straightforward keyboard layout built around movement, interaction, and vehicle operation. Most sessions alternate between walking around your farm on foot and driving tractors, combines, and trucks for field work and store runs. Mobile and controller players see on-screen buttons for the same actions, but this page focuses on the PC keybinds most wiki readers search for.

Context prompts appear when you are near interactable objects — store counters, vehicle seats, hitch points, factory levers, and animal pens. When a prompt is visible, the interact key confirms the action. If nothing happens, reposition until the highlight appears or check whether a license gate blocks the feature you are trying to use.

PC Keybind Reference

The table below lists the core keys used throughout Farming and Friends. Some vehicle-specific actions also show on-screen labels when you enter a tractor or truck cab.

Tractors, Implements, and the SRC6 Combine

Your starter ZM80 tractor accepts rear-mounted tools: plow, cultivator, planter, and trailer hitch. Approach an implement slowly from the rear, align the hitch marker, and press E when the connect prompt appears. Use Q to cycle attachment modes when you need to switch between a field tool and a trailer without returning to the Vehicle Store.

The SRC6 combine harvester attaches like other rear implements. Drive through mature crop rows to collect grain into its tank, then unload into a trailer or sell directly depending on your setup. Combines have a wider path than tractors alone — practice on wheat before moving into dense fields. Space helps when stopping on inclines near fence lines so the combine does not slide into obstacles.

Advanced seeders such as the AED300 require higher-tier licenses from Goals. Cocoa trees and some specialty crops need at least a Level 2 seeder. Check the Items and Goals pages before purchasing equipment your current license tier cannot use.

Trailer and Hitch Attachment

Trailers connect to compatible tractors and trucks through the rear hitch or a tow hook on licensed heavy vehicles. Back up slowly until the hitch icons align, then press E or use Q attachment cycling until the connection registers. Flat ground makes attachment easier; slopes cause trailers to roll away before the hitch locks.

Your starter farm includes a small animal trailer for buying livestock at AnimalCo. Larger trailers — box trailers for pallets, log trailers for forestry, semi trailers for heavy transport — unlock through Logistics Goals and Vehicle Store purchases. Some heavy trailers require a hook-equipped truck and a Heavy Transport license. Animal trailers must line up with white floor markers at AnimalCo's purchase archway before you buy cows, sheep, or chickens inside the store.

When hauling mixed loads to the 2026 one-stop sell point, practice reversing with V camera angles so your trailer bed sits under the correct unload zone. Space acts as a parking brake while you confirm sell quantities on screen.

FarmCo and Store Selling Controls

FarmCo is the primary crop store. Drive your tractor and trailer into the FarmCo parking lot beside the main building. Align the trailer with the crop chute or sell zone markers on the ground — the game highlights valid positions. When aligned, a sell popup appears showing quantities and current prices. Press E or click through the UI to confirm the sale.

Prices refresh on a timer displayed at FarmCo. Rainbow-colored price text indicates peak value for that crop; waiting for rainbow tiers on large harvests significantly boosts income. Join the Dunn Games Roblox group (Farmer's Club) for a five percent bonus applied automatically on qualifying crop sales. The central one-stop sell point accepts crops, lumber, and animal products in one trip — convenient for mixed loads after the 2026 map update.

AnimalCo selling works similarly for wool bundles, milk, eggs, and honey once you process products. Factory outputs like chocolate milk pallets sell at dedicated zones or the one-stop point depending on product type. Always confirm the price board before unloading a full trailer — misaligned parking wastes time, but selling at a low price tier wastes coins.

Control Tips for Efficient Farming

Rebind nothing until you understand defaults — most experienced players use stock WASD and E. Use V liberally when reversing trailers; third-person angles prevent costly mis-hits on chutes and gates. Keep Space in mind on the hilly terrain added around the 2026 map perimeter when parking loaded rigs.

If an implement detaches unexpectedly, stop on flat ground, dismount with E, and walk behind the tractor to see hitch alignment. Herding animals benefits from slow WASD taps rather than holding W — improved pathfinding still punishes rushed pushing into fences. For factory lever sequences such as chocolate milk production, follow on-screen prompts at each station; the interact key advances most steps.
