Chapter 21 - Tools

[Rob T]

There are many tools you can buy to help you do things faster in Farm Town. This Chapter has posts which gives you details about each type of tool. All the links below are clickable and will take you to the post about those tools.

Some of these tools when used will also show an Eye bottom right of your game which you can use to hide items on the farm. So if something doesn't show that you think should be, check the eye setting.

Note: The more realistic eyes are have been updated to the red and black versions we had previously:

Click on the Eye to change the setting.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/basics/EYE TOOLS CLOSED OCT 2020.PNG When the Eye is BLACK you still see everything on your farms.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/basics/EYE TOOLS OPEN OCT 2020.PNGWhen the eye is RED, you will only see the items the harvest tool can harvest, like fields, trees and flowers. Clicking on an item with the harvest tool will harvest the item then make it temporarily disappear from view, which can be easier for you when you have more items on the farm. When using the Herding Robot it will hide everything except the animals.

More details about the eye when using Full Screen mode are in Chapter 2 Basics What is the Eye for? (https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6387350#post6387350) - the Full Screen additional features listed in that post are not in the current version of the game yet.

Are there tools for working Overlapped Fields?
Although the developers have provided tools to make working overlapped crops easier (often referred to as a form of layering), we are still NOT permitted to post or allow anyone to post the instructions on how to create them. Overloading your farms with more items than was intended to be there can still cause problems with loss of items, farm corruption, so you will not find the instructions posted on the forum.

The EX tools for working crops are:

Ex Harvesters
EX Seeders
EX Combines: Harvest-Plow EX and Harvest-Plant EX.
There are no EX Plow Tools that will only plow harvested fields or plow new fields!

Extent Tools do not have the eye. Instead they have a copy of the tool icon showing bottom right of your screen while you use the tool. Clicking on the tool icon allows you to switch between Highlight Mode and Extent mode. Items not ready to harvest/fish/chop etc will always be temporarily hidden while you use the tool and will reappear when the tool is dropped.

Q: Can I use a tool to Harvest crops?

A: Yes, there are several size tools that you can use to harvest. The 2x2 tools and above use fuel.
You must buy them in size order.
You must make sure that you place them into your Item Storage so that the game can see which ones you own AND for you to be able to use the bigger tools when working for others or when they work for you.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/HARVESTERS ALL 27 JUN 2023.png

These tools are not for working overlapped crops faster AND Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers BUT you must own all the sizes up to and including the 16x16 before you can buy your first EX Harvester to be able to plant overlapped fields faster.

For full details on ALL the crop tools tools that can work overlapped crops faster click on this link:
Are there tools for working overlapped fields? (https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6146146#post6146146)


You can harvest a single field at a time with your harvesting tool (the scythe).
You can harvest 2 fields at a time with the 2x1 harvester.
You can harvest 4 fields at a time with the 2x2 harvester.
You can harvest 9 fields at a time with the 3x3 harvester
You can harvest 16 fields at a time with the 4x4 harvester (FC item).
You can harvest 25 fields at a time with the 5x5 harvester (FC item).
You can harvest 36 fields at a time with the 6x6 harvester (FC item).
You can harvest 64 fields at a time with the 8x8 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 100 fields at a time with the 10x10 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 144 fields at a time with the 12x12 harvesterer (FC item)
You can harvest 196 fields at a time with the 14x14 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 256 fields at a time with the 16x16 harvester (FC item)

When you own the 16x16 you meet the requirement to buy your first EX Harvester.

If you are not overlapping crops you can continue buying the bigger size tools:


You can harvest 324 fields at a time with the 18x18 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 400 fields at a time with the 20x20 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 484 fields at a time with the 22x22 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 576 fields at a time with the 24x24 harvester (FC item)
You can harvest 784 fields at a time with the 28x28 harvester (FC item)


When you buy a bigger size tool you will see a popup telling you what you are about to buy, please make sure that you read it and especially note the name and size of the tool before you purchase.

If you do not have Show Tools checked in your Show Preferences that will also be shown in the popup.

If you are buying a tool bigger than the 16x16 there is another popup that will remind you that the tool is not an EX tool for working overlapped crops.
Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/TOOL NOT FOR OVERLAPPED CROPS.png



To use tools bigger than the Scythe to harvest, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Harvest" and then click on the fields.

However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.

NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

Q: Can I use a tool to Plow new or wasted Fields?

A: Yes, there are several tools that you can use to plow. These do not use any fuel.
These tools can be used to plow new fields on your own farm, plow harvested fields and plow wasted crops.
They must be bought in size order.
You must make sure that you place them into your Item Storage so that the game can see which ones you own AND for you to be able to use the bigger tools when working for others or when they work for you.

NOTE: On your own farms or when working as a Super Neighbour with design permissions that allow plowing of new fields AND you have other items showing in your preferences, when you pick up a plow tool the other items showing will not hide, as the game does not know if your intention is to plow harvested fields or plow new fields. For plowing new fields you need to be able to see where your other items are in order to plow in an area that doesn't already have something occupying that space. If you cannot see where you need to plow you will have to hide the other items in your preferences.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/PLOWERS ALL 27 JUN 2023.png


You can plow a single field at a time
You can plow 2 fields at a time with the 2x1 plower

You can plow 784 fields at a time with the 28x28 plower (FC item)


Note: Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers. Doing this CAN cause problems with your farms that may NOT be able to be fixed. They have not provided plow tools to create these overlapped fields and for the same reason you will not find instructions on how to create them on the forum.

To use tools bigger than the single plow tool, to plow fields, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .

If your tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Plow" and then click on the fields.
However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.


As of April 2020 it is much easier to use bigger plow tools to plow a farm without having to change to a smaller plow tool. This is very useful when plowing new fields along the bottom edge of the farm when you upgrade it to a bigger size.

The plow tools will now overhang the bottom edges of the farm allowing you to plow a narrow but long strip without switching to a smaller tool.

In the example below:


The top picture is the old method where you had to get the right size tool to plow along the edge as the tool had to fit within the farm, so that method you could only plow 4 fields at a time using the 4x4 plow tool.


The bottom picture shows the new overhang method, using the 10x10 plow tool, where everything within the farm area and the green box, will be plowed, which in this case would be 18 fields.

Q. What are the Combines?

A. There are TWO types of Combines and they come in several sizes. They all cost Farm Cash. These tools use Fuel.


Combine Harvest-Plow tools will harvest crops and plow fields with each click of the tool. It uses fuel for Harvesting not for the Plowing.

Combine Harvest-Plant tools will harvest crops, plow fields and plant new seeds with each click of the tool. It uses fuel for the Harvesting and Seeding not for the Plowing.

For the tool to be able to get the maximum amount of fields per click your fields must be plowed close together and in line with each other. If the fields are offset the tool either won't be able to get them all or will try to grab an odd pattern.


To buy the Combine Harvest-Plow, you must own the relevant size Harvester and Plower before you can buy the same size Combine Harvest-Plow.


Combine Harvest-Plow (5x5) will harvest and plow up to 25 fields in a squared 5x5 area.
Combine Harvest-Plow (6x6) will harvest and plow up to 36 fields in a squared 6x6 area.
Combine Harvest-Plow (8x8) will harvest and plow up to 64 fields in a squared 8x8 area.
Combine Harvest-Plow (10x10) will harvest and plow up to 100 fields in a squared 10x10 area.

Q: Can I use my tools on other farmers' farms?

A: You can use both 3x3 coin tools and Farm Cash tools to work on crops, trees, flowers and fish on other farms as long as you have placed those tools into your Item storage.

There are some other tools, like the mobile sprinkler and some of the freestlyle hand designers, that you can also use, in some circumstances, on other peoples farms, but some you can not. The details for those are in each individual post for those tools later in this chapter. A quick way to know if you can use a tool when on someones farm is to look in the toolbox. If a tool is greyed out in the toolbox then you don't have access to that tool to use.

You will be able to use the tools owned by your employer if they have allowed it. If the tools use fuel you will need to have fuel to use them unless the farm owner has allowed the use of their own fuel. If the farm owner has allowed the use of their tools and fuel you will see the information is in the hiring popup when you are offered a job. However it does not tell you if you will be using their fuel first or last, it could be either.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/hire all allow tools and fuel.PNG

Both your tools and the farm owners tools can be found by opening the toolbox. Tools that are greyed out, you don't have access to.

When hired for a single job the tool you can use will be automatically given to you and will also appear in the game panel in place of the store & gift icons.

If hired multiple, the correct tools will be automatically given to you for each job or can be accessed via the yellow toolbox.

For all options on Hiring and Fuel allowance see How do I hire someone to work on my farm(s)? (https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5830742#post5830742)

NOTE: If the farm owner has allowed the use of their fuel you may not get to use theirs first depending on what they set the fuel allowance to. They have 3 options for fuel allowance

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Fuel options.png

Also if they run out of fuel you will need to use your own fuel to continue working with out having to drop to using the x1 and x2 tools.

My tools don't work anymore, help!

There are a few things that can make a machine not work properly.

The most common thing is that it won't plow/plant/harvest in blocks any more.

Go to preferences located top right of your game screen. The icon looks like a wrench/spanner https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/preferences.jpg:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/Preferences hover.jpg

Make sure 'remove space between fields' is checked if you have no gaps. (If you do have gaps on your farm, make sure "remove space between fields' is unchecked).

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/preferences remove space.png


Also make sure you have enough fuel. Check your fuel indicator located top left of your game screen. This image shows 3,264,945 Fuel.

Q: Can i move my tools to one of my other farms?

A: Yes, Just put it in storage. Then go to the farm you would like the tool on, and take it out of storage and place it on the farm. You must have a clear space, slightly bigger than the tool, with nothing else occupying that space, to be able to get it out of storage.

However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use. This means you only need 1 of each tool.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/oil pump APR 2019.PNG

Q: What can i do with an Oil Pump?

A: The Oil Pump is a coin facility, it allows you to produce Crude Oil Barrels for use in the Oil Refinery. The Oil Refinery is used to make Fuel Tanks for use with your tools, as well as other products used in other facilites. You can only have 1 working oil pump per farm. To start the oil pump, open it up like any other facility, and click "Start Batch". It costs coins to start each batch.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/preference icon 2019.PNG As of August 2020 this is now classified as a facility, so will now show up on your farms when Show Facilities is check marked in your game preferences instead of Show Tools.


Should you need to produce more crude oil than this facility can produce you can by the Offshore Oil Rig for Farm Cash which will produce 3 times more crude oil than the oil pump.

Both of these Facilities are listed in Chapter 13 What are the Non-Workable Facilities? (https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6298338#post6298338) and this post will eventually be removed from this Chapter as the oil pump is no longer a tool.

Q: What is the Fishing Boat?
A: The Fishing Boats are used to make it easier to fish. These tools use fuel.


These Fishing Boats do NOT have Extent Mode they only have Highlight Mode:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/FISHING BOATS NON EXTENT AUG 2023.png

These Turbo Boats have BOTH Highlight Mode and Extent Mode:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/FISHING BOATS EXTENT FEB 2024.png

Important note about overlapped waters and Fishing!!!!
Some farmers will have overlapped waters on and off the edges of their farms. If you have them on your own farms or are hired to work them, you will need to own the Turbo Fishing boat in order to be able to catch every single fish in those waters. Hired workers can use the farm owners turbo boat as long as the boat they have allowed the use of their Tools in the hire. You will also need Fuel.


The Fishing Boat (2x2) allows you to catch up to 4 fish each time you click.
** The Fishing Boat (2x2) can NOT be used on other farms when hired **

The Fishing Boat (3x3) allows you to catch up to 9 fish each time you click.

The Fishing Boat (5x5) allows you to catch up to 25 fish each time you click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat allows you to fish each body of water with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (4x4) allows you to fish up to 16 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 1 plowed field with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (8x8) allows you to fish up to 64 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 4 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (12x12) allows you to fish up to 144 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 9 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (16x16) allows you to fish up to 256 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 16 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (20x20) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 25 plow fields (5x5 area) using a new method of fishing.
When selecting the new Turbo Boat 20x20 instead of the Eye in the bottom right you will see the current tool icon >>

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/fishing boat select.png

When you click on that icon, you will see a vertical toolbar with 3 buttons.
The one in the top (Highlight) selects the old method of highlighting each individual item.
The one in the middle selects the New Method (Extent) of highlighting only the perimeter of the area where the tool will operate. Instead of highlighting all waters, this new method will just highlight a fixed squared section of the farm which works faster and with less manual mistakes. When you use this method you will briefly see "Extent mode selected" in white lettering near the top of the game screen.
The bottom button closes the box.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Fish" and then click on the waters.

However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Harvest" and then click on the trees.
However, it is far better to place all tools into your Item Storage. You will then be able to access all of your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm.

Q: What is the Manure Spreader?

A: There are 3 manure spreaders, the red one, and the orange one and the green one. These are used to fertilise your farm.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MANURE SPREADERS ALL APR 2019.PNG

Red manure Spreader ONLY fertilizes crops, and will produce 2 boxes of harvest instead of 1.

Orange Manure Spreader takes on the job of the red one, and also fertilizes trees and flowers too giving you 2 boxes of harvest instead of 1,

Green Manure Spreader - This takes on the job of both the red and orange manure spreaders AND allows you to fertilize All farms or a selection of farms with a single click.

NOTE: If you already own the Red Manure Spreader and you buy the Orange Manure Spreader, then every time you fertilize a farm using ANY of them, crops, flowers and trees will be fertilized. Fertilized crops, trees, flowers will produce 2 boxes when harvested and chop trees, 2 log piles when chopped.

When you upgrade to the Orange Manure Spreader ONLY the orange one will show up the yellow tool box, as it will do the job of the red one as well. You MUST own the red one in order to get the orange one.
If you then also upgrade to the Green Manure Spreader, then this is the only one that will show up in the yellow toolbox, it will take on the jobs of both the red and orange manure spreaders.

Notice you only need to fertilize a farm once, with any of the Spreaders, it doesn't matter which. The farm will remain fertilized for 72 hours.

How do I collect manure?
You need to have a Pigsty ( facility section on the store) to collect the manure from your pigs (which are a gift only item). The collection process works the same as if you were harvesting animals, the difference is that in this case, the manure from the pigs is stored in your Manure Spreader tool. Each pig produced 1 Manure Unit every 12 hours. You must own the spreader in order for you to be able to collect the manure from the pigsty.

How do I know how many manure units I have stored? Put the Manure Spreader into your Item Storage. Open the yellow toolbox and mouse over the manure spreader. It will tell you how many units of manure you have. If the farm you are currently on is already fertilised it will also tell you how long it is fertilised for.
Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/manure mouseover JUNE 2020.png



How do I fertilize?
You need 50 manure units to fertilize a farm. To fertilize a farm, click on the Manure Spreader tool and select 'Fertilize Farm'. Once a farm is fertilized it will remain fertilized for the next 3 days.

All crops still growing (not ready to harvest) will be fertilized. All new crops planted while the farm is still fertilized will be fertilized also.

Once a crop is fertilized, it will produce 2 boxes instead of 1 when harvested, whether the farm is fertilized or not at the time of harvesting. If you hire others to harvest, you will get 2 Large boxes instead of one. Employees will get twice the amount of coins, and 2 boxes as well every time they receive an additional bonus box when harvesting.

When you buy the Manure Spreader tool, it will come with 250 manure units inside for you to start fertilizing right away!

To use the Manure Spreader to fertilise, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Fertilise Farm" and then click on the farm.
However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.


To Fertilize more than one farm at a time:
When you first get the Green Manure spreader and use the tool you get a window Titled "Select Your Farms" which has 2 sections, it defaults to "Select One Farm" which lets you do one farm at a time. To switch it to doing more than one farm you click on the tool then click on the farm and in the window at the top click on "Select Multiple Farms" so the button turns orange, then add a check mark for each farm you want the tool to work on or if you want it to do all farms select "All" at the bottom of the window and then click the green check mark.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/select multiple farms arrow.png



You have an option in your game Preferences to show Highlighted Crops/Trees. When this is checked all fertilized crops/trees will have a white highlight around them. However this can make the game slower.

There are also some other ways you can check if your farm is fertilized...



Check the background colour of the oval containing your farm name, if your farm is fertilized it will be olive green instead of brown.

Go to the farm in question and open the tool box. Hover your mouse over the manure spreader, it will tell you how long the farm is fertilised for and how much manure is stored.

Click on your Yellow Tool box to open it, then click on the Show Times icon (looks like a clock). Look in the Per-Farm section and under "Fertilize Farms" it will have a green check mark if a farm can be fertilised OR it will tell you how long until you can fertilise each farm.

Look at the colours in the green grid top left of your game screen, any farms that are fertilized will be olive green instead of green.

Click on "Show Names" at the top of the green grid and then on "Show Extra Farm Info". The legend top left of that window will show you which farms are Fertilized, Irrigated, Watered and which are Quest farms, Private or Disabled for super neighbour farming actions. If you mouse over each farm it will tell you if there is another land upgrade available for it and what it will cost.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/land upgrades/SEFI legend.PNG
If you hover your mouse over the legend top left of the window it will tell you what the letters and each colour represents. F is for Fertilized.

Q: What is the Mobile Sprinkler ?

A: There are 5 sprinklers... Brown, red, orange, green and purple. Depending on the ones you own, they can be used to water ALL flowers on a farm and irrigate crops, trees, flowers to shorten growth time and extend waste time, all with one click.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE SPRINKLERS ALL APR 2019.PNG


Brown mobile sprinkler - This allows you to water all your flowers on your farm in one click. You earn 3XP when you water your own flowers, but it will cost you 1000 coins. You can use the sprinkler once per day.


You can also take this tool with you to water your neighbors' farms.

To use it on your neighbors' farms, the tool must be in your storage so it will show up in the Yellow Toolbox. Go to your neighbors farm, open the Yellow Toolbox and simply click on the sprinkler and then click on the farm. You earn 1000 coins and 3 XP every time you water your neighbours' flowers.


When you own the following mobile sprinklers you can NOT use them on your Neighbours farms if you are not their Super Neighbour and they do NOT own the tools. They must own the tools themselves for you to be able to irrigate for them as a Super Neighbour only.

Red Sprinkler - This is used to speed up growth of the crops and flowers by 50%. Please note that while the crops grow in half the time, the end waste time is not effected, meaning if you plant a 4 hour crop, it would be grown in 2 hours, and you'll have 6 hours in which to harvest it, totaling 8 hours, which is what it would be had the crops not been irrigated. You can irrigate a plant more than once, but it's growth speed will only double the first time. You may only irrigate once per day.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Red sprinkler crop times.PNGPlease note: A time that has a decimal point it after it is approximate, the game can not display more than the 1 digit after the decimal point so 3.3 Days is actually 3.333333

Orange Sprinkler - This is used to speed up tree growth by 50%. If you own the orange sprinkler, you only need use this one to irrigate trees, crops and flowers. You can irrigate a plant more than once, but it's growth speed will only double the first time. As with the red sprinkler, speeding up growing time does not effect waste time. You may only irrigate once per day

Green Sprinkler - This tool increases the time to waste period on all crops. For crops that mature in 1 day or less it increases the time to waste period by 24 hours. For crops that take over a day to mature it increases the time to waste period by 48 hours.

Purple Sprinkler - This tool allowes you to irrigate ALL farms or selection of farms in a single click.

Once you own an upgraded sprinkler it will also do the job of the previous ones. Example, if you own the green sprinkler, when you use it it will also apply the jobs of the brown, red and orange sprinklers.

Note: Irrigating crops/trees/flowers will cost you 1000 coins per farm. You will earn 3XP for watering/irrigating the farm that you are on. If you water/irrigate multiple farms at once you will still only earn 3XP for the farm you are on and NOT all the others.

To use the Mobile Sprinkler, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Water Flowers" (brown sprinkler) or "Irrigate" (red, orange, green and purple sprinklers) and then click on the farm.
However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.


To Irrigate or Water more than one farm at a time:
When you first get the Purple Mobile Sprinkler and use the tool you get a window Titled "Select Your Farms" which has 2 sections, it defaults to "Select One Farm" which lets you do one farm at a time. To switch it to doing more than one farm you click on the tool then click on the farm and in the window at the top click on "Select Multiple Farms" so the button turns orange, then add a check mark for each farm you want the tool to work on or if you want it to do all farms select "All" at the bottom of the window and then click the green check mark.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/select multiple farms arrow.png



To find out what farms have been watered or irrigated, there are several ways:


If you want to know when a specific farm can next be irrigated, go to the farm in question and open the tool box. Hover your mouse over the red, orange, green or purple mobile sprinkler and if you need to wait, it will tell you how long.

Click on your Yellow Tool box to open it, then click on the Show Times icon (looks like a clock). Look in the Per-Farm section and under "Water Farm Flowers" and "Irrigate Farm Plants" it will have a green check mark if a farm can be watered or irrigated OR it will tell you how long until you can water/irrigate each farm.

Click on "Show Names" at the top of the green grid, top left of the game screen, and then click on "Show Extra Farm Info". The legend top left of that window will show you which farms are Fertilized, Irrigated, Watered and which are Quest farms, Private or Disabled for super neighbour farming actions. If you mouse over each farm it will tell you if there is another land upgrade available for it and what it will cost.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/land upgrades/SEFI legend.PNG
If you hover your mouse over the legend top left of the window it will tell you what the letters and each colour represents. I is for Irrigated, W is for watered.



***IMPORTANT: Only 2 sprinklers will show in the extended toolbar, the brown one for reviving flowers and either the red, orange, green or purple one, you DO NOT lose the other sprinklers, they are still in your storage. ***

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/mobile sprinklers toolbox.JPG

Note: Only you will be able to use the mobile sprinklers to irrigate or water your Quest or Private farms. SN's, neighbours or anyone visiting can not do those farms. However the flowers on a Quest farm can be watered using the watering can.

Q: What is the Forklift?

A:There are 2 Forklifts, Green and Purple, They can be kept either in storage, or on any farm, it doesn't matter where. These tools Store All products in a Facility. These tools use Fuel to Store.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/FORKLIFTS ALL APR 2019.PNG


The Green Forklift - Allows you to store all products in a single facility with a single click. This does NOT include service facilities. To do this click on the Facility Manager in the Yellow Toolbox:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/Facility manager.jpg



Then you are able to use the "Store All" button on each facility :-

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Store All on Sawmill.PNG



You are also able to use the "Store All" inside each facility :-

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Store All in Sawmill.PNG


The Purple Forklift - Allows you to store ALL products in ALL facilities in a single click. This does NOT include service facilities. As above, open the facility manager, then use the "Store All" button at the top :-

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Store All in FM.PNG

Q: What is the Ordering Station w/Trailer?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/ordering station APR 2019.PNG https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/semi trailer APR 2019.PNG

The Ordering Station w/Trailer is used in conjunction with the Semi-Trailer Truck, it can be on any farm or in storage, it doesn't matter.

This enables the 'All' button when ordering products from the Truck.

Also, with the extra trailer capacity products are delivered twice as fast, 30 minutes instead of 1 hour, it's like duplicating the output of each truck assuming you have enough fuel.

Note that if you have multiple trucks, you only need to buy one ordering Station w/ Trailer, and all your trucks will benefit. The trucks MUST be on separate farms, just like with any other facility.

Q. What is the Turbo Ordering Station?

Q: What is the Armored Truck?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/armoured truck APR 2019.PNG

A: The Armored Truck is a tool that allows you to Cash Out ALL Service Facilities in one click. This tool cost 30 Farm Cash. It's NOT the other armored truck that costs coins, that one is just decoration.
NOTE : Cashing out Service facilites uses Fuel.



The "Cash Out All" button is located at the top right of the Facility Manager.

Q: What is the Freestyle Farm Designer?


A: These tools are upgrades to the Yellow Edit Tool (Hand) in your Toolbox. The yellow edit hand that everyone starts out with, looks like this:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/yellow hand.png

The Freestyle Farm Designers, commonly referred to as the orange, green or purple hands, have more capabilities.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/FREESTYLE ALL APR 2019.PNG

Important note about overlapping waters and Fishing!!!!
When you own the freestyle designers that allow you to overlap waters and you choose to do this, you will need to own a Turbo Fishing boat in order to be able to catch every single fish in those waters.

Without a turbo fishing boat you will find that you won't be able to catch every single fish in overlapped waters on the farm AND you won't be able to fish the waters that are placed off the edges of a farm as those can ONLY be fished with a Turbo boat.


If you don't own a Turbo fishing boat you can hire a worker that owns it to fish them for you and they will need fuel to be able to use it.


Hired workers can use the farm owners turbo boat as long as the they have allowed the use of their Tools in the hire. They will also need Fuel.



https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/freestyle orange.pngOrange Freestyle Farm Designer: Allows Overlapping of Paths and Ponds. This tool enables paths and water items to almost fully overlap other items.

When you own this tool and place it into Item storage, you will see both the yellow hand and the orange hand in your toolbox.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/freestyle green.pngGreen Freestyle Farm Designer: This is an upgrade to the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer which allows Overlapping of All but Plants. If you already own the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer you can buy this Green Freestyle Farm Designer to allow any item except plants (fields/crops/trees/flowers) to almost fully overlap other items.

When you own the Green Freestyle Farm Designer as well as the orange one and place it into Item storage, you will see just the yellow hand and green hand in your tool box. There is no need to show the orange one as the green one will do the jobs of both the Orange and Green Freestyle Farm Designers. Do not sell the Orange hand, it needs to remain in storage so the game can see that you own it, should you then want to upgrade to the purple freestyle farm designer.

You can use the Orange and Green Freestyle Farm Designer tools while designing on other farmers farms as well. When you have permission to design a farm, which ever tool you have, the most upgraded one and the yellow edit hand will show up in your toolbox to use.

Examples of using the orange and green freestyle farm designers:

Using the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer: By overlapping river corners an a bit of imagination, you can create waterfalls....
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/simple waterfall.JPG

Using the Green Freestyle Farm Designer: You can also bring other items closer to each other, like the overlapped waters, to create an effect.....
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/simple waterfalls1.JPG

The Green Freestyle Farm Designer will also let you place some items off the edges of the farm. However this is something that was not intended by the developers to be done with the tool, so you will have to play around with what you are trying to move off the edge as some things will only go off two of the edges not all of them and you may find you need to rotate the item to get it off the edge of a farm. Note: If you choose to overlap or place waters off the edges of the farm, to be able to get all of the fish from the waters you will need a turbo fishing boat.



https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/freestyle purple.pngPurple Freestyle Farm Designer: This is an upgrade to the Green Freestyle Farm Designer which allows overlapping of All but Plants (fields/crops/trees/flowers). The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer does the jobs of the orange and green freestyle designers and also allows you to:

rotate items with a click
buy items from the Store and place them with every click
buy multiple items from the Store and place them with every click
use items from your storage and place them
and allows you to almost fully overlap some other items in your farm without requiring to have the full physical space in the farm

WARNING: The buying options allow you to buy Farm Cash items as long as you have enough FC to cover the items you are buying. Be very careful that you remember to click the green man to stop buying more of the item you are placing!


When you own all of the Freestyle Farm Designers and place them into storage you will see in your toolbox, the yellow edit hand, the green freestyle farm designer and the purple freestyle designer.

To use the Purple Freestyle Farm Designer, place it into Item Storage and then open your toolbox and click on the purple hand. You will then see the following options :
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/purple hand tool mode SEP 2020.png

Edit items - this is what the green hand currently does.
Rotate Items - when you chose this option the item you click on will rotate, then you move the item to the new position and click again to set it down. Click the green man to stop using the tool.
Buy one item from the Store - opens the store for you to chose what to buy and overlap.
Buy multiple items from the Store - opens the store for you to choose what to buy. Each click buys the item and places it on your farm. Click the green man to stop using the tool.
Use items from your Storage - opens your storage for you to choose what to place on your farm and overlap. Click the green man to stop using the tool.



This tool can be used when designing for others but will NOT allow you to buy any Farm Cash Items for them or take any Farm Cash Items out of their Item storage. In the store you will see that all Farm Cash items are showing as Locked.

When you are using the tool on a farm that you have permission to design, the tool menu is slightly different in that you see a choice to use Items from your friends storage. Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/FREESTYLE TOOL SN MENU SEP 2020.PNG



The following picture is to explain the difference in the physical space needed to place an item on the farm with the The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer compared to placing it without the tool...

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/OPEN PIT SIZE GUIDE PURPLE HAND.PNG

Normally when you place an item on the farm, you need to have a space the same size or larger than the item you are placing, the example here is for an open pit mine, as indicated by the yellow lines.

With the Purple Freestyle Farm Designer you only need a clear space the size of the area indicated in bold red, which is the same size a single pine tree would use.



Important: The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer will let you buy multiples of Farm Cash Items, as long as you have the Farm Cash available to spend, so be very careful that you are buying the right item before you proceed. As soon as you are done buying the item you want make sure you click on the green man to stop buying!




To use the Freestyle Farm Designer, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Edit Items" and then click on the item.

However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. You do need to do this if you want to use the Orange or Green Freestyle Farm Designers on another farmers farm (for the Design this Farm Together or Super Neighbour with Design Permissions Features). Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.

NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

Q: What are the Animal Harvesters?

A: The animal harvesting tools are used to harvest ALL the animal sheds (providing you have all the tools needed) using the 'Harvest All' button in the facility manager. There are 4 tools.

When you own at least one of these tools it will also mean that the Quest Farm Setting for any farm prevents the animals sheds on those farms related to the tools from being harvested when using the Harvest All at the top of the Facility Manager. This can be useful for quest purposes. For more details on setting a farm as a Quest farm, please click on this link: https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=5836358#post5836358

NOTE: To store manure you must own the manure spreader.



When you own at least one of these tools you can use the Harvest All button located at the top of the Facility Manager.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/FM harvest all top.jpg


To use these tools you must place them into Storage. It is always best to do this, that way the game can see which tools you own should an upgrade to a tool be released in the future.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

What is the Herding Robot?

On 27 FEB,2024, the Herding Robot tool was updated and now has more functions.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/herding robot APR 2019.PNG



The Herding Robot can be used to store animals in their animal sheds, mainly harvestable animals, some but not all of the very old decorative animals.

The Herding Robot also enables buying multiples of some harvestable animals and sends them directly to the relevant animals shed on whichever of your farms you are on that has room for them instead of buying and placing them one by one on the farm and then storing them.

You can not buy multiples and place them on the farm.
Remember animals that are not in animals sheds can be a huge drain on computer resources and make farms slow to load or even impossible for some computers when far too many animals are on a farm.



When you own the Herding Robot make sure that you place it into your Item storage, so that it can be used on any of your own farms.


You can not use this tool on another farmers farms. They must own it themselves and use it themselves.


You can buy multiple on harvestable animals in the store like sheep, llamas, white rabbits, ostriches and peacocks and automatically send them to the animal shed on the farm you are on as long as you have room for them in the animal shed.


As long as you can afford it, you could fill a shed with the maximum amount of animals it will hold with one purchase per animal type.


You can also buy and send the amount of animals needed to fill the animal shed if it's got some in but not at maximum yet.


These new options mean you can easily fill a harvestable animal shed with coin animals very fast. Without it you are buying them one at a time and the counter on the save icon climbs for each purchase making you wait for them to load before you could store them. The more animals you place on a farm, the longer the wait.


This tool will not buy multiples of ANY decorative animals in bulk.


This tool will not buy Farm Cash Animals in bulk. Farm Cash Animals must still be bought one at a time and placed on a totally CLEAR SPOT on your farm.



IMPORTANT

Do not buy and place FARM CASH animals without showing EVERYTHING possible on your farms so you can see if there is any clear spot to place them. If you place them where another item is, no matter if it's crop trees, flowers, facilities, buildings, decorations or when there are numerous amounts of those on the farm, your Farm Cash animals can go missing before you get a chance to store them!

Some of the coin animals are quite expensive to buy in bulk for those starting out and not a lot of coins. You may want to consider this before filling any new animal shed form empty to maximum with every kind of coin bought animal it can hold to harvest.

Harvestable sheep for example are only 800 coins each, where as the harvestable ostriches are 50,000 each!




To use the Herding Robot to store working animals that are already placed on your farms, you must have the relevant animal shed on the farm AND have room in the shed on that farm to store them.

Open your yellow toolbox and click on the Herding Robot.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/HERDING ROBOT TOOLBOX.png

Then click on the animal you want to store.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/HERDING ROBOT CLICK ON SHEEP.png


You will then see how many you will be storing which will be whatever capacity is left in the animals shed for that animal

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/HERDING ROBOT MOVE 25 SHEEP.png


If there is room for the animals they will be stored in the shed and you will see the message to confirm how many of which animal were sent to the animal shed.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/HERDING ROBOT 25 SHEEP MOVED.png




To buy multiples of coin bought harvestable animals from the store and send then directly to animals sheds on the farm you are on, you must have room in the relevant animals shed on that farm to store them.

Open the Store and click on the Animals section.

Scroll down or search for the animal you wish to buy like sheep, llama, white rabbit, ostrich, peacock.

Mouseover the animals and Multiple will appear.

In these examples we are buying sheep:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTI SHEEP.png

CLICK on Multiple and you will see your buying options. If the shed already has some in it but is not full the maximum you will see the maximum you can buy is the remaining capacity of that animal shed for that animal.

When a specific animal in an animal shed is at maximum for capacity (250 regular sheds, 500 super sheds) when you click on Multiple it will show you information like these:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTI SHEEP REG SHED MAXED.png

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTI SHEEP SUPER SHED MAXED.png


These are the options shown when there are no sheep in the animal shed:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTI SHEEP REG SHED.png

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTI SHEEP SUPER SHED.png


Scroll down and click on the amount of animals you want to purchase, then you will be shown a popup with information.

These examples are for filling a shed to maximum for regular shed or super shed.

Take note of the type of animal, the amount you are buying and the COST incase you made a mistake or can't afford them. This is your only opportunity to cancel the purchase!!

If the information is correct. Click on the green check mark to buy and store the animal in your animal shed. The coins will be deducted and you can check the animal shed to make sure it is full or the amount you bought was added.
To cancel the purchase, click on the red X instead.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/BUY 250 500 SHEEP AND COST.png


You will then see this type of message when the purchase is successful:

Q: What is the Excavator?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/excavator APR 2019.PNG

A: It is a tool that's used to sell items in bulk from the farm. For protection, this tool will never work with any Farm Cash items OR any Buildings, Trains, Ships, Tools or Facilities.
NOTE: Super Neighbours with the correct design permissions can use this tool on your farm when designing.

For example. If you decided to sell all your water items, it will not sell your Farm Cash waters.

You can use it on any field, plowed fields, growing crop fields, etc but it will always delete and not sell the fields.

Note: When you delete a crop, it does not leave a harvested or plowed field where the crop was planted. It deletes the field it was planted on.

This is an example of the window you will see when you click on a crop to delete it. The top option will delete that specific crop and the fields it is planted on. The second option will let you delete ALL crops and plowed and harvested fields on the farm.

Q:What is the Tower Crane?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/tower crane APR 2019.PNG

A: It is a tool that's used to move items in bulk to storage. This does not work with FarmCash items or facilities.
NOTE: Super Neighbours with design permissions can NOT use this tool on your farms. They do not have access to your item storage and have no way of knowing if you have room for any items in there.

Q: What are the Multi Planters?

A: Multi Planters allow you to plant multiples of flowers or trees, from 16 up to 1600 at a time.
There are 7 sizes of Muti Planter tools and they all have several planting options.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTIPLANTERS ALL APR 2020.PNG

They must be bought in size order, so to buy the Multi Planter 8x8 you must first own the Multi Planter 4x4. To buy the Multi Planter 12x12 you must own both the 4x4 and the 8x8 and so on.

The Multi Planter works on both new trees and flowers from the store, those in your gift box and those you have in storage as long as you have enough clear space on your farm to place them.

To use the Multi Planter, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Plant Items" and then follow the instructions below.
However, if you are wanting to plant from storage you need to place the tool into storage. It is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way the game knows what tools you own should another upgrade be released. You can then access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.




Buying new flowers or trees from the Store using the Multi Planters:

Click on the Multi Planter you want to use and the store will open.

Once you have chosen which tree or flower you want to plant, then you can choose from one of the following 6 patterns in which to plant them.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/multiplanters six patterns.jpg

Click on the pattern you want to use and as you click on the farm it will plant those in that pattern.



Using the Multi Planters to plant flowers or trees from storage:


Open your Storage to the Item section.
Find the trees or flowers you wish to plant. You may find it easier to either use the search box to find them or filter Item Storage to trees or flowers.
Hover over the box containing the flower or tree and you will see a Multi button with a drop down arrow to the right and also a Use button. (The Use button is for planting one by one.)


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTIPLANTER STORAGE MULTI USE.png

To use the Multi Planter click on Multi and a list will appear showing you the available sizes as shown below.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MULTIPLANTER STORAGE MULTI OPTIONS.png

Click on the size you want to use and then you will then be shown the planting patterns for you to choose from. Click on the pattern and as you click on the farm, it will plant what you have selected in the pattern you chose until you run out of those in storage.



As of April 2020, the Multi Planters can now overhang the bottom edges of the farm so you don't have to switch to using a smaller tool to get it to fit within the farm. This is useful when you want to add trees or flowers to the bottom edges of an upgraded farm size.

Q. What are the Transplanters?

These tools are upgrades to the Multi Planter tools. They will transplant trees and or flowers from one part of the farm to another part of the same farm as long as you have enough clear space on your farm to move them to. To buy one of these you must first own the same size Mulitplanter.

Example:
To buy the Transplanter 4x4, you must first own the Multi Planter 4x4
To buy the Transplanter 8x8, you must own both the Multi Planter 4x4, Multi Planter 8x8 and Transplanter 4x4.

*NOTE* The Transplanters will NOT move trees/flowers from one farm to another farm.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/TRANSPLANTERS ALL MAY 2020.PNG

The 4x4 Transplanter will move up to 16 trees or flowers.
The 8x8 Transplanter will move up to 64 trees or flowers.
The 12x12 Transplanter will move up to 144 trees or flowers.
The 16x16 Transplanter will move up to 256 trees or flowers.
The 24x24 Transplanter will move up to 576 trees or flowers.
The 32x32 Transplanter will move up to 1024 trees or flowers.
The 40x40 Transplanter will move up to 1600 trees or flowers.


To use your machine to transplant, it must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .


If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Transplant Items"
However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.



Once you have clicked on the tool you will see this menu where you can choose to transplant "All trees AND All flowers", "All trees OR All flowers", "specific trees OR flowers". Chose your option then hover over the trees/flowers you want to move to highlight them. When you have highlighted them click on them to move them, then when you have moved them to the new position, click again to set them down.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/transplanter mode.PNG

The "Duplicate Pattern" option duplicates any flowers and trees pattern you have in your farm.


To use this, put a check mark in the box next to Duplicate Pattern
Then click on one of the 3 options in blue to chose which trees/flowers you want to duplicate
Hover your mouse over the trees/flowers on your farm that you want to duplicate to highlight them.
On the first click in the farm it will select the pattern and each click after that will buy from the store all the required trees and flowers and will plant them in your farm.


This option does not duplicate trees or flowers that are available via gifts only.

Q. What is the Mobile Lookout Tower?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/mobile lookout tower APR 2019.PNG

A: This tool provides detailed visibility on your Super Neighbours farm content by enabling the 'Show Work Info' when visiting them. "Show Work Info" is accessed by clicking on "Show Names" in the farm grid top left of your game screen. After looking at the Show Work Info of your Super Neighbours, your farm selector will be updated to only show the blue color on farms where there is work available.

Also, this tool will reduce the waiting time to pull updated work information from 10 to 5 minutes, whether you are at a farm or at the market.


How to use the the Mobile Lookout Tower:


First place the tool into your Item storage. It does not count towards your item storage capacity and you will not see it in the toolbox as you don't need to click on it to use it.


Go to one of the farms you are a Super Neighbour for. When you arrive look top left for the farm grid.
Without the mobile lookout tower every block in that grid will show up as blue that you have not yet visited. There could be work there but you will not know what work there is and if it's actually ready to be worked on yet.

Now you own the Mobile Lookout Tower what you do is click on Show Names at the top of that grid.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE LOOKOUT SHOW NAMES.PNG

A window will open showing you the names of all the farms. Click on Show Work Info at the bottom right of the window.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE LOOKOUT SHOW WORK INFO.PNG



The work available on every farm will then show up for you. It defaults to showing you all available work.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE LOOKOUT WORK SHOWN.PNG

The Legend top left of the window tells you what the colours represent. Hover your mouse over each of the colours and it will tell you what type of work it is, fields to plow, seed, harvest, trees to chop, fishing etc. This is an example of what you see when you hover over the blue F

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE LOOKOUT LEGEND FISH.png



If you are there to do all types of work you can now close that window by clicking the red X top right and the grid will update for you like this:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/MOBILE LOOKOUT SHOW NAMES REFRESHED.PNG


Blue blocks are the farms with work on that you have not been to yet.
The yellow block represents the farm you are on. This may or may not have work on it. If it does you will have been automatically handed a tool to work with.
A farm that is the default green or olive colour is one you have already been to or is one where the SN permissions have been disabled.
The red dot is a farm you have permission to design
.


If you have permissions to do all work, but for some reason you only wanted to do a specific job, or the farm owner has requested they only wanted one type doing that day, you can get Show Work Info to show you just the farms with that type of work on it.

To do that:

click on Show Names in the grid top left,
click on Show Work Info,
then in the Legend click on the job that needs to be done.


The window will then update to show you which farms has that work on. You can then just click on one of the farms that is showing it has that work and it will take you to that farm. The grid will then update for you showing you only the farms in blue with that type of work.

Are there tools for working overlapped fields?

Yes there are the EX Tools. These tools use the new faster method of harvesting, plowing and planting existing fields called Extent Mode. You must own all the relevant single layer tools up to 16x16 before you can by these tools.

Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers.

However if you do it on your farms or work on other players farms that do overlap fields, these new set of tools will enable a much faster farming, very similar to the experience of using the Tree Shaker 20x20 to harvest up to 400 trees, or when using the Fishing Turbo Boat 20 x 20 to harvest up to 400 overlapped water items in a squared area the size of 5x5 fields.

When selecting the one of the new EX Tools instead of the Eye in the bottom right of the game screen you will see the picture of the tool you have clicked on.

When you click on that icon, you will see a vertical toolbar with 3 buttons.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/20x20 harvest options.png

The one in the top (Highlight) selects the old method of highlighting each individual item.
The one in the middle selects the New Method (Extent) of highlighting only the perimeter of the area where the tool will operate. Instead of highlighting all the fields, this new method will just highlight a fixed squared section of the farm which works faster and with less manual mistakes. When you use this method you will briefly see "Extent mode selected" in white lettering near the top of the game screen.
The bottom button closes the box.

Also, the tool will always operate as if the Eye was closed, meaning, the recently worked items will be hidden once the work on them is completed.

PLEASE NOTE: Using the Ex tools in Highlight mode will make the tool work like the single layer 16x16 tools or larger single layer tools IF you own them.

Q: What is the Flower Freezer - Unfreezer Tool?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/flower freezer APR 2019.PNG

A: This tool allows you to freeze or unfreeze flowers in bulk instead of one by one.
Note: Super Neighbours can NOT use this tool on your farms. You must own the tool yourself and freeze/unfreeze flowers yourself.


There are 3 options. .

Freeze only those flowers that you planted in the current session
Freeze all flowers by type e.g all Carnations
Freeze all flowers on this farm


Click on the tool and then click on a flower you want to freeze/unfreeze. You will then see the following menu giving you the options. . .

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Flower FUF freeze menu.PNG

At the top of the box choose whether you want to Freeze or Unfreeze.
Choose one of the three other options you want and then click the Green check mark to proceed.

Note: Frozen flowers will still die if not watered, but they will return to their glory in the first water once they've died. This means you can always bring back dead flowers by simply re-watering them!

Irrigating rather than watering a frozen flower will revert the growth process to the beginning again and they will have to regrow.

Q. What are the Overhead Cranes for?
A. The Overhead Cranes automatically load the products in ships in your seaport with one click and send them on their way. For your own ships, they also allow you to Self Load your ship a set amount of times, if it has been stuck at a port for the minimum specified time.

There are 7 Overhead Cranes, one for each colour ship.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Cranes ALL 17 JAN 2010.PNG


You must buy the Overhead Cranes in order. To buy the Overhead Crane Orange, you must first own the Overhead Crane Blue. To buy the Overhead Crane Green you must own the Overhead Crane Blue AND the Overhead Crane Orange and so on.

When you own all the Overhead Cranes you will be able to Load ALL of the ships in your Seaport with just one click.

These tools must be placed in your Item Storage to work fully and enable the Self Loading part of the tool. Once they are there, you don't have to do anything else with them, the game will recognize which ones you own. If you wish to have some of them on your farm for decoration then once you have purchased each one you can buy a duplicate for coins. These tools do NOT show up in your Toolbox as you do not need to click on the tool to use them.



How does the Overhead Crane work?

Each Overhead Crane owned will enable you to load any ship of the same colour with one click per ship instead of up to 11 clicks per ship. When you hover over the ship, instead of a black Enter Ship button you will see a blue Load Ship button. Clicking the Load All loads the ship and it it disappears from your seaport. Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Cranes Load Ship.PNG


When you own all the Overhead Cranes this activates the Load All button located at the top left of the Seaport Manager, in the My Seaport section. When you click that, ALL ships that are showing in your port at that time, will be automatically loaded and sent on to the next port. When there are no ships left in your Port the Load All button greys out.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Cranes Load All.png

If you do not own all the cranes the Load All button top left will be greyed out. As long as any Overhead Cranes you own are in your Item storage you can click Load All, even when it's greyed out, and you will see a popup telling you what you need to enable it. If you own any of the Overhead Cranes and they are in your Item storage the ones you own will show up in the popup and the ones you don't (or are not in your item storage) will be greyed out. Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Cranes greyed load all popup.PNG


If one of your ships has been stuck at a port for a long time and you own the relevant Overhead Crane, you can Self Load the products at the port it is stuck at in order to send it on to the next port. Each Overhead Crane has a set amount of Self Loads available per trip and the ship has to be stuck for a set amount of time before you can Self Load.

Note: You can not Self Load the last Port on the ships itinerary.


Blue Ship (needs Overhead Crane Blue) - Self Load up to 1 port after being stuck for 60 mins
Orange Ship (needs Overhead Crane Orange) - Self Load up to 2 ports after being stuck for 50 mins
Green Ship (needs Overhead Crane Green) - Self Load up to 3 ports after being stuck for 40 mins
Purple Ship (needs Overhead Crane Purple) - Self Load up to 4 ports after being stuck for 30 mins
Brown Ship (needs Overhead Crane Brown)- Self Load up to 5 ports after being stuck for 20 mins
Pink Ship (needs Overhead Crane Pink) - Self Load up to 6 ports after being stuck for 10 mins
Yellow Ship (needs Overhead Crane Yellow) - Self Load up to 7 ports any time you want


To Self Load: Look in the My Ships section of the Seaport Manager, open the Ship that is stuck at a port and then open the Ships Logbook.

If you own the relevant Overhead Crane for the ship and it has been stuck there for the minimum set time and you have self loads left to use, instead of Skip Port you will see Load Ship:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Cranes skip and load.PNG

When you click Load Ship you will see a popup telling you what you are about to do and with which colour Overhead Crane and how many chances you will have left if you choose to proceed. Click the green check mark to proceed or the red X to cancel. Example:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/tools/Crane blue chances left.PNG

If you don't see Load Port and and see Skip Port instead, look and see if there is a small crane showing above Skip Port. If you hover your mouse over Skip Port it will tell you how many chances you have left to Self Load that ship and if there is a time you need to wait until you can Self Load.

If there is no Crane icon showing above Skip Port and no information when you hover your mouse over it then you have used them all up.

Example of what you could see when you still have chances left to Self Load:
