New Release -- October 21st, 2014

[Raul]

See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last updates released on November 7th, 11:10AM EST.

Hi There,

We just released a new version of the game with the following features and bug fixes:

1. 12 New Halloween items (released 3 weeks ago)

2. 5 New Animals on the Gifts page: Alligator, Wild Boar, Flamingo, Skunk and Ram. Some of the animals on the Gifts page were moved to the Store.

3. Farm 24: See prices below:

12x12 - 5000000000 coins or 50 FarmCash (New Farm)
14x14 - 5500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
16x16 - 6000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
18x18 - 6500000000 coins or 20 FarmCash
20x20 - 7000000000 coins or 20 FarmCash

38x38 - 11500000000 coins or 30 FarmCash

4. Cooperative Quests Updates (some were launched 1-2 weeks ago):

- Fixed several bugs on Buy and Sell transactions
- Replaced "This transaction could not be completed" message by a more accurate message "Products no longer needed". This is usually a valid message, ex: if you try to sell a product to user X but already another user sold it to user X moments ago, or when you try to buy a product from someone but already another user sold it to you moments ago.
- Auto fixing of some Regular and Cooperative Quests that were locked without any way to make progress
- Funeral facility product quests are hidden from you when browsing other Cooperative Quests if you have that option enabled in your preferences
- The "Load Fishing Tackle Shop with Bait" quest is now permanently removed as baits never go to storage and therefore no one can sell it to you
- Blue dots are not shown on neighbours with only expired quests or only expired and completed quests
- Changed quest unlock levels from levels 20 / 50 / 100 / 150 / 200 to levels 20 / 40 / 60 / 80 / 100, so now users at level 100 can have 5 concurrent quests
- Neighbour avatars name now shows when you mouse over their picture
- When browsing Cooperative Quests if there is a user that just completed all its quests the flow will not be interrupted, you will be allowed to continue to the next user
- When ordering the neighbour bar by Cooperative Quests the current user is always shown to the left of the leftmost neighbour with a blue dot, this way neighbours with blue dots are visible in the screen right away

5. Animal Buildings capacity increased: Regular buildings now hold up to 200 animals instead of 180. Super Animal Buildings now hold up to 400 animals instead of 360.

6. Reach product Belts and Dans for the next 10 facilities

7. General Improvements and bug fixes:

- Farm zoom level is more stable, when you go to other non-farm locations like Market or Inn you can change zoom level but when you go back to your farm your original zoom level is restored.
- While preparing to send a Hire Request to others, ex: selecting checkboxes or target farms, all Hire Requests sent from others to you will be ignored, this will avoid some unintentional clicks on those incoming requests.
- Fixed bug that was not allowing users to buy 25 FarmCash for 4.99.
- Fixed bug where all Animal Buildings not ready to be harvested were showing this message "No animals to collect manure from at this time".
- When visiting others their info on the bottom left is a bit more compacted to reclaim some of the space taken by the Cooperative Quest icon.

[judy49]

Thank you for the update.

[maggiel29]

Yay new animals and a new farm and more animals :) thank you

[bluehair]

Yipee just bought my 24th farm now what to put on there :)

[maggiel29]

The new giftable animals are more scary than the Halloween stuff - just saying :D

[Katusha]

Love the new animals & I'm going now to buy the new restaurant. :D
Thanks!

Kat

[LazyMare]

Thank you for Farm 24
Have been waiting for it :D
One tiny issue though - I can't navigate there from Farm Map Top Left - have to click show names
Looking forward to the Jewlery factories too :D

[Lara]

Farm 24 won't load for me. I bought it I went there I left there and now I can go to every farm but 24. Think there is a glitch

Note: Just read above post and can access from show names but not the Farm Map.

[Auron1]

Thanks so much for creating such a great game! Your entire team seems to share an attitude of "making everything better." :)

[crafty chris]

thank you thank you new toys to play with :D

[bearcat_o]

can't get back to farm 24 now!

[JacqV]

Thanks for the Update Super effort :)

[JW2009]

Thank you :)

[Hyacinth Bucket]

can't get back to farm 24 now!

I'm the same, seems to be a glitch of some sort. I'm able to load in farm 24 by getting the link to it from within the Farm Selector Manager then when I'm on farm 24 I can go to any of the other farms but cannot get back to farm 24 from the other farms, it just sits there doing nothing!

I'm sure the devs are already on to it :D

PS can get there now by clicking on 'Show Names'.

[al_bundy]

great release Thankyou :)

cant load Farm 24 from the farm selector

[ponytail]

i too cannot access my farm 24 from the grid:(

[sandivanderavoird]

Thanks for the update Raul and Team.
I too cannot access my farm 24 from the grid.

[mac16129]

Thank you! It amazes me the thought and planning that goes into this games.....which is by far the finest game on FB. What wonderful minds the developers have!

[JW2009]

The DEV are currently working on the farm 24 issue

[theperfectnina]

I was saving my coins, got to just over 60 Billion but only made it to buy and expand farm 24 to 26x26 so WOW am broke again

LOVE the new animals, please let's not use the alligator skin to make handbags or shoes, we don't skin the rabbits lol

looking forward to the coin facilities

Keep up the good work

[WendyP57]

appreciate the new release...but... I have tried twice to buy farmcash ($19.99) it appears to be working but when I get back to the farm, no cash :(

oh dear.. refreshed 3 times and I have actually purchased almost $40 worth of farm cash, guess I should have refreshed a few more times before I paid for the second lot

[dave1949]

can't get back to farm 24 now!

Im having same problem

[marymarcel]

Im having same problem

Hi Dave!

The developers are working to fix this issue.

Raul has posted some instructions to get your farm 24:)

You can't navigate to Farm 24 using the rectangles in the farm selector, for now just click on the Show Names button and then click on the Farm 24.

[kuettel51]

Since the update my tools are all microscopic in size...what gives

Really appreciate all the work the developers put in on this game...thanks

[StoneFace]

Thanks for farm #24

Seems like yesterday when we only had one farm with a max size of 24x24.

We did not get the expansions for farms 16-20 (probably next time), and that might be a good thing..... it is already an expensive day.....:cool:

So now I have 4 farms, 38x38, 9 layered, edge to edge..... that yields almost a quarter million crop in one planting. hehehehehe.

:eek:

[Ashlar Lady]

I see this part of the new release, Quote:- " The "Load Fishing Tackle Shop with Bait" quest is now permanently removed as baits never go to storage and therefore no one can sell it to you " This is not correct, when collecting Bait Bonus's they are put into your storage and as long as you don't sell those Baits obtained from Bonus's that are in your storage via the Fishing Tackle Shop, you can sell it to friends/neighbours who need it in their Coop Quests.

[macwinter]

Awesome update thank you

[Dutch85]

Love it Raul! Thank you so much! New animals-yay! I love the two part update! More facilities next week to look forward to! Thanks again!

Hi Ashlar Lady!

You are correct:)

But we have received many complains about the cooperative quests using baits, so the developers decided to remove those quests. Some farmers dont get the bait bonuses or they use baits in storage for their Fishing Tackle shop, so if they get one of these quests, they cant complete them.:)

[Rugged Barbie]

Today's update is really awesome.
I love the animals. How creative! Thank you.
It's very insightful to see how the Developers really want this to continue to be the very best game possible. They listen to and fix the issues we are having, are attentive to our glitch reports and very responsive to our requests.
And, then, they go even beyond our expectations with even more impressive upgrades.
And, before I realized there was an upgrade when I logged in this morning I was about to spend several billion coins on enlarging one of my existing farms. Glad I didn't, because we now have a new farm!
<3

[mrsdont]

thank you for the update.. i must admit it is a little disappointing this month

[Lee Ann]

Hi Petunia,

There is a glitch that the developers will hopefully fix soon, for now tho, if you click on show names at the top of the selector, that SHOULD allow you to select farm 24. Tho a few people said this isn't working sometimes. But it's all we have until it gets fixed. I'm sorry

Hi FarmerMcLashwood:)

good thing is we could find the alligators on your farm 24, think they like to hide themselves:)

I will try to find what is happening with your dairy. According to your data you have 1 on a farm and 1 in storage. I couldnt see any dairy on your farm 19. Are you sure it is showed on farm 19 in your Facility Manager?:)

[Seraphina Warrior]

Thanks for the fabulous update!!!

Hi angelloghry, the new animals are purely decorative, and serve no other purpose at this time :)

[angelloghry]

Hi angelloghry, the new animals are purely decorative, and serve no other purpose at this time :)

Thank you very much :-)

[SeniorCornwall]

Can the new animals be stored in any of the animal buildings?

[StoneFace]

Hi angelloghry, the new animals are purely decorative, and serve no other purpose at this time :)

dang.....

I need a new pair of alligator shoes.

[clogger]

Having trouble with the two new FC facilities. Bought both and saw them on my farm. "Hid" with under another building using the green hand, so it would not take up as much space on the farm. They do not show up in the Facility Manager. Is it a Facility Manager glitch or because they are layered under another building?

[Petuniaflower]

I try to make my farms look realistic. The new animals are really CUTE.They look CARTOONISH:rolleyes:

Hello clogger,

Sorry you are having this problem, you could try to put both of your facilities into storage, then click the save button, close the game, clear your browser data, reload the game and then put both facilities back on the farm and see if they show up in the facility manager. If not then you could post back here and we can see what else we can do.

Thank you for the pic:)

I have gone to a few of your farms looking for your dairy shed, but you have used the green hand to hide some factories into bigger buildings, so I'm not sure to be able to find it.:(

There are no buildings on your farm 19. Do you remember in which farm your dairy shed used to be? If not, you would need to look at the factories hidden trying to find the dairy.:)

And you are very welcome about your alligators, they were surely playing hide and seek!:D

[Taz D]

I don't seem to be able to work on others facilities since the update, is it just me?
Hi Kaytutt,
I am currently going through my neighbors facility work and it is working fine for me. What message are you seeing when you try to work?
Try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close it and your farm, then clear your browser cache and close your browser. Reopen and try again.

[3 C Acres]

Well we now have Farm 24--I have completely purchased the farm and all additions---now I cannot even get on the farm. I have cleaned my cache--I have rebooted and still cannot get on it!

[FarmerWitch]

Thank you for the update .... love, love LOVE the new gift animals :-)

[Eradani]

2. Some of the animals on the Gifts page were moved to the Store.
i see no changes to old animals in gifts or the store. coming later maybe?

4. Cooperative Quests Updates (some were launched 1-2 weeks ago):

- Blue dots are not shown on neighbours with only expired quests or only expired and completed quests
yay!!! and they do seem to be sorting properly


- When ordering the neighbour bar by Cooperative Quests the current user is always shown to the left of the leftmost neighbour with a blue dot, this way neighbours with blue dots are visible in the screen right away

this isn't working for me. i'm still a page left of my first neighbor with quests.

Hi 3 C Acres!

Sorry about your problem, Raul has posted about this in his notes in the New Release. They are working to fix this issue. Meanwhile, please click in Show Names above the rectangles of your farms and you will be able to navigate to your farm 24 clicking in its name.:)

[Texas Belle]

Thanks for the new factories, the new farm, the new animals and the augmentation of animals on the sheds.. You guys rock... thanks again, now on to play with the new toys...

[L.A.Bob]

Thanks for the new update. Love the Farm 24. This game still rocks even after playing for 5 years

[leighwj1960]

Unfortunately the new release was announced after I left for work so I'll have to check it out when I get home. I am wondering when we could expect more usable (ie for facilities) to be added to the gifts.
I know everyone plays the game differently and that is fine but the new gifts that have been added appear to be exclusively decorative.

[mpwhitford]

I know the release increased the number of animals you can put in the sheds. I was in the process of adding chickens to my coop and my gift box told me I had a particular number of gifts. So I opened it and clicked store all as it was all animals.

Now those same animals I stored are 'stuck' in my gift box. I hit store again and it says nothing to store yet when I opened my farm it told me I had 76 gifts. I did clear mem cache and refreshed but they are still in there.

Please help

Hello mpwhitford,

When you clicked on the store all the first time did it fill the chicken coop that was on that farm? If it filled that coop, did you go to another farm to fill another coop and then get the message or was it on the first farm. Once a shed or coop is filled, you will get the message that there is nothing to store. The gift box will only store animals into their sheds that is on that farm.

well since they were in my gift box I did store all which adds the animals to storage. So when I saw there were still 76 animals in my gift box I attempted to store again. It said 'nothing to store'. I refreshed my farm and ran mem cache and again gift box showed 76. Again I did store all from my gift box.

I had no difficulties adding animals in my storage to their appropriate sheds on each farm. It's just the gift box that won't clear

Hi mpwhitford,

When you store them from the giftbox, they go directly into animal sheds, but not storage, providing there is enough room in them. The message you received is usually given if there is no room in the shed on the farm you are on. There is no direct way to put them into storage i am afraid. Unfortunately, you would have to place them on the farm first before adding to storage.

[Sandy Mae]

thanks for the goodies. And thanks for explaining why I could not get to my new farm! Again a happy farmer dance

[Farm Cash]

Thanks for the updates...love the alligators...lol

[earlgray]

I try to make my farms look realistic. The new animals are really CUTE.They look CARTOONISH:rolleyes:

I had the same reaction. These would be nice animals to have if they didn't look so cartoonish.

[FarmerMcLashwood]

Thank you for the pic:)

I have gone to a few of your farms looking for your dairy shed, but you have used the green hand to hide some factories into bigger buildings, so I'm not sure to be able to find it.:(

And you are very welcome about your alligators, they were surely playing hide and seek!:D

Thanks again for sorting my alligators.
The dairy was only ever on farm 19.. emptied it and put it in storage. the dairies on other farms have only ever been on those farms they are on. and all show up ok for me. Guess its a glitch. but I can live with it. it doesn't interfere in any way with me working on that farm..... cos its not there lol

[HelenJS22]

Thank You!!! LOVE my new pet alligator :D

[bbbjwilson]

will there be a facility to hold the animals? Will we be able to use them other than decoration? Will we need them for facilities etc or quests?

Thanks for the answers!

bbbjwilson:)

[ceciliawells33]

[ceciliawells33]

[Taz D]

Thanks for the answers!

Hi bbblwilson,
The new animals are just decorations at this time and there aren't any animal sheds for them.

[Farmer-JP]

{sigh} still waiting for new trains. Though perhaps the servers couldn't handle several players with enough engines/trains so that the mayor completes all facilities....

[Docperk]

Thanks for the new farm and updates.

[Lance75231]

thanks for the updates

thanks for the Update, But I have had ISSUES ever since I got on FB an In FT this morning! I have tried Opera which was fine yesterday an was so messed up today I uninstalled it an reinstalled it an it still isn't working right, Now I can't get bookmarks added or even copy them from a diff browser into Opera, I have also tried using Google Chrome an Firefox, they all 3 are very very very slow, the display is all goofy most of the time. I can barely do anything.

Everything was working last night when I was in FT an FB so I have no idea what happened over night when My computer was turned off but I am totally frustrated on what to do!

Can anyone help? I have cleared out my memcache, an my browser caches, done disk clean an have the most recent flash player too. all browsers are up to date also.

Hi lollipopthebunny,

I'm so sorry you are having difficulties, one thing you may not have tried is powering of your router for a few minutes? sometimes data gets corrupted and they will slow down, thus slowing you down also. Powering it off for a few will clear out any data. I hope this helps :)

Great up date, love the new animals.. They go along with what the other animals look like. We could use new flowers and new people... and avatar needs new looks and clothes... just a thought... thanks again

Gotta ask why on the neighbor bar when it is set to ORDER BY ONLINE STATUS that I show at the middle between those online and those offline and I have to scroll over to the right to see those higher level people that I interact most with? I used to show in the normal order of where I was level wise among the online people. Do not like this at all

Hi Kuettel,
Try setting it to sort by level then change it back to sort by online and see if that will reorder them for you.

fyi: in the Sort by coop quests, i'm still sorted by my xp and not beside the people with quests. i've reset the order and nothing changed.

Hi Eradeani,
Since you will not see a blue dot on your own self, then you will be sorted down the list by xp. All of the ones with the blue dot will be together to the right of you.

I was in the store buying facilities and I always check the ingredient planner to see what is needed and if I am short on an item. I also check to see how many of that particular factory I have

today it is not displaying the amount of crops in any of the ingredients planners - in the store and in the facility manager. It also isn't showing me how many of each factory I have in the store when I click on a particular facility.

Hi mpwhitford,
I just checked mine and it is showing all you are looking for. Try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close it and your farm, then clear your browser cache and close your browser. Reopen and try again.

Last updates released on October 21st, 7:10PM EST.

4. Cooperative Quests Updates (some were launched 1-2 weeks ago):

- When ordering the neighbour bar by Cooperative Quests the current user is always shown to the left of the leftmost neighbour with a blue dot, this way neighbours with blue dots are visible in the screen right away

Hi Kuettel,
Try setting it to sort by level then change it back to sort by online and see if that will reorder them for you.

Taz It isn't helping to sort by level and then changing to back to online. I did that when I read your suggestion - I always sort by online and I changed just now to sort by level. it sorts first by level and second by XP's. In that sort I show as the 23rd highest.

I then changed the sort to online like I usually have it. In that sort I am 21st highest - again sorting first by online and second by XP. I am usually 8 or 9th highest of my neighbors. I looked and there are several people that have lower XP that are higher in the online sort than I am.

So something is definitely screwed up in the sort process

Thanks Rob, I will remember this hopefully the next time this happens. Luckily when I got on this morning an so far today, everything is back to the way it was on Monday! So maybe FB was causing issues or ??? but its fixed now for the moment. I was also able to get bookmarks added again in Opera.

I noticed this last night and then again today. Several times I work facilities that only give me one farm to work. This time I asked poster if they posted all farms or just the one and he told me all of them. He has tons of facilities/clients which I lost out on working. He posted clients and facilities all 24 farms. I landed on his farm 24 on both posts and only got that one farm to work for both posts. So I cleared browser cache/history, ran memcache reset, closed all and tried again and same thing happened. I have a feeling it is another issue related to farm 24 but don't know. Here is the link to his facility post: https://apps.facebook.com/farmtown/play/?farm_id=1043298279&farm_ix=23&facility_id=WM&facility_time=1414015832&facility_sig=b6db0d76e6c08eb9c89a879785ddb185

[Courtney Cotton]

Can anyone tell me which are the next ten facilities we are getting the bonus belts from in the lastest update please?

I'm not sure where we were upto before the update and as I like to make sure I get all of my bonuses slowly to get the best from them, ie not five all at once one after the other on the same product, I fill those facs manually until the first bonus pops up and then I stop when I have my five allowable bonuses.
I also have all the boxes unticked in those facs so they don't get filled when I use the facility manager, once I've had all the bonuses we are back to normal again. It takes a bit more time of course, just call me a FT nut! :eek:

Hi DitzyLuvBug2:)

So sorry you are having problems. We have checked ourselves on this. I posted facilities from my farm 24 and Rob and my husband were able to work all farms.

We are not sure why this is happening to you. Could you please tell us if you clicked in other farm not showed as blue, were you able to work it?:)

Greetings! Opened a Quest this morning. It required the Peruvian Rest. Now, this facility was just released the other day and already I'm required to buy it. I'm protesting. I bought the Retail factory but haven't yet purchased this one.

This has happened before in other releases. I think it would be considerate to withhold releasing Quests requiring a NEW facility for a few months even. I hesitate to use the lifeline unless I was sure I'd get the employee lifeline and then be able to get the final product by working someone's post who has purchased it.

So, what's the theme of next month's contest? Thanksgiving? Me needs to start thinking, a new, yet possible endeavor. :)

Hi Rugged Barbie,

I am really sorry, but the quests are generated at random, unfortunately there isn't a way to withhold them from quests :(

As for the new contest, that is yet to be decided :)

Hello clogger,

Sorry you are having this problem, you could try to put both of your facilities into storage, then click the save button, close the game, clear your browser data, reload the game and then put both facilities back on the farm and see if they show up in the facility manager. If not then you could post back here and we can see what else we can do.



I did as suggested, put the facilities back and they still do not show up in the Facility Manager. They are currently on my farm 22, if you want to check if you see them there.
I don't know if you can check my facility manager, but if possible, a moderator has my permission to do so.

[Courtney Cotton]

Hi Edi Zuidema, Sorry you're looking for them in the shop, but the cows, hens and pigs are gifts and have never been available in the shop.

You can send out a gift request to your neighbours, or exchange what gifts you get to make up your numbers. I hope your neighbours will help you out.

Hi clogger:)

I checked your farm 22 and the 2 new facilities are there. Please try the following: open your Facility Manager and click in A/Z icon in the upper right corner. Then set it to Alphabetically and try to find the Peruvian Restaurant and the Retail Supplies Factory. If you cant find them please post here again.:)

[marymarcel]

Yes I clicked on his farm 1 after the mayor finished working farm 24 and didn't get a work box to work his facilities on that farm.

Hi again:)

When you clicked on farm 1 you didnt receive a message to work it, but did you receive any other message?

I have visited your neighbors farms, they are fully worked and they have many factories, so could it be possible they are getting a glitch when posting their facilities? Do you know if other neighbors are having the same problem as you while trying to work their facilities?

Sorry about so many questions, but we are trying to figure out what is happening.:)

I'm a bit puzzled. I started purchasing additional sheep to put into my wool shed on my first farm, and discovered it said I already had 200 each sheep and llamas in there. Which should not have been possible because I hadn't purchased any others since the latest update, which increased the maximum to 200. So FT is giving me free animals? Well, I guess I can't complain!

Hi earlgray:)

Some time ago we had a glitch with animals disappearing from their sheds. When developers fixed it some extra animals were added, for example I received extra white rabbits :D

So, there's no problem, just enjoy them:)

[MadamePondarosa]

I really liked the flamingos:)

But, the flamingos can not be placed over any kinds of water/ponds :/

Thats kind of the point with flamingos...they stand in WATER!! Is this possible to change? :)

[Orx]

I am having a problem with farm 24. There are a lot of sheep and rabbits that I have tried to send to storage so that I can put them on another farm but they won't go or if they do when I reload they are still there and sometimes when I click on them it seems to add more of the animals. I have cleared the memcache and browser and restarted the computer but the problem is still there. Can you help please I am sending a link to my farm.

Sorry about so many questions, but we are trying to figure out what is happening.:)
I didn't receive any messages when going to his farm 1. When I asked he said nobody else that did his facilities had said anything about only getting farm 24 to work. I know when I posted my facilities after the release one person did report to me they only had one farm to work and guessed it was just the release glitch too. I still have that message from him in my FB messages. I also have one FT message with someone reporting they only got 1 farm from my post. So I know it isn't only me having the problem.

[mpwhitford]

ok on the 22nd the day after the release I went to sell off my non ingredients. I use the non ingredients for me. Sold them off and I was not having a very good day because for some unknown reason I sorted back to all and then clicked sell selected.

Now that shouldn't have been an issue since I'd already sold off non ingredients and I would have no reason to check any of the used ingredients. I know you can but I don't. I saw that some ingredients were sold but thought nothing of it.

I posted my factories yesterday and was out of several things - activated carbon, honey ice cream, hawaiian pizza and pizza supreme are what I can remember. At first I thought what the heck? Then I remembered what happened at the market.

So I just now went to the market and again sold off my non ingredients for me. not much to sell off this time. then I sorted to all and went all the way down the list to see if anything was checked to sell. Yup! the items I mentioned above. This time I hadn't hit sell selected. But here's the issue. I had checked both my supreme pizza and Hawaiian pizza stock b4 I went to the market. Both showed 16,322. Now the supreme shows zero.

I know nothing can be given back to me and that's not what I'm asking. I'm asking if someone could please check into whether some ingredients that ARE used are accidently ended up in the non ingredients for me. I have gotten into the habit of only selling my non ingredients after the release comes out in case some that wasn't used is with a new factory.

I just sold all of my non-ingredients and when I went through all, I deselected:

Chicken Hot Hard Taco (used in Bowling Alley)
Durians (used in Fruit Stand)
Hawaian Pizza (used in Bowling Alley)
Instant Hot Chocolate (used in Bowling Alley)
Mameys (used in Tropical Shakes Stand)
Nectarines (used in Fruit Stand)
Orange Marmalade (used in Fruit Stand)
Persimmons (used in Fruit Stand)

Am loving the new animals in gifts..... Just one thing though. trying to do a zoo themed farm..... I can get alligators and flamingos in my lakes by putting them down and then putting lakes over them. works....... until I log back in... when the alligators and flamingos are once again to the side out of the lakes.... obviously a glitch that maybe the Devs are unaware of as yet.... have a number of friends who are experiencing the same thing.... but others who are not.

[carolann43]

Since the news release I am missing my crops in storage. 3 fields of sugar, 2 fields of tomatoes, onions......list goes on. All my harvesting last night gone. Also, this has happen to another person that I know of, we planted a field and this morning it is not planted. What happened? Took my coins, but no crop.....I for one do not like the new animals...what purpose do they serve. I'm an old fashion farmer, has to have a purpose.

You are right on. I checked the Sept. release and this is what it shows for the bowling alley
Bowling Alley (Coins): Provides Bowling Entertainment Services and can be stocked with the products below:

Bowling Ball --> (NEW) produced in the Sports Accessories Factory
Bowling Ball Return --> (NEW) produced in the Sports Accessories Factory
Retro Bowling Poster --> (NEW) produced in the Sports Accessories Factory
Bowling Pins --> production was increased to accommodate the demand for an additional service facility
Hawaiian Pizza
Chicken Hot Hard Taco
Instant Hot Chocolate
Honey Icecream

the last 3 of those items were still checked and while I can't say for positive that they still showed in the non ingredients AS WELL as all ingredients I do know that mine were sold off. I have checked and see the supreme pizza is not used so it IS a non ingredient.

I accept partial blame for being in a blue haze and clicking the sell selected while sorted to all. However, when non ingredients are switched to being used the devs need to check to make sure in the market they get unchecked.

Now it is entirely possible - in fact very probable - that I didn't have as many of these items as I originally thought I did so I'll breath a deep breath pull up my big girl panties and move on. But please take caution in having these things checked. It should be part of testing the new release

[melee]

I have never used this before so I am not sure I am doing it properly. I harvested my sugarcane for my quest and it will not acknowledge it. Have planted it yet again. What else can I do?

Hi melee:)

Sorry you are having problems with your quest.

If you harvested it in your own farm and you didnt get the green tick for that step, then you have probably got an intermitent glitch with that quest. As it is intermitent it is not easy to the developers to pin down and fix.

You have just replanted sugarcane so you will have to wait some hours to harvest it, hopefully the glitch could be cleared by that time.
When you harvest a crop try to open your quest to be sure that step gets the green tick, if not , try to wait some hours and harvest it again.:)

we have to add the checkmarks for "items to sell" manually. So, when there's new facilities, i've done an ingredient check on the new facility, gone to the market, and made sure everything the new facility is using is unchecked now.

we have to add the checkmarks for "items to sell" manually. So, when there's new facilities, i've done an ingredient check on the new facility, gone to the market, and made sure everything the new facility is using is unchecked now.

Yes you are right - to sell items that are used in facilities we have to manually check it. but as far as I'm concerned it is NOT the player's responsibility to check every release to make sure there are no check marks!

I do not sell any used items. I don't think I've even looked and said holy cow I have 10 million of this I'd better sell some. I only use non ingredients for me. I sell off once a month - right after the release. So when the bowling alley was introduced last month the pizza, instant chocolate and honey ice cream should have been removed from non ingredients to used ingredients.

Clearly someone did not test this part. This needs to be tested everytime a non ingredient becomes a used ingredient. I'm sorry but I don't have the time to go down the entire list of ingredients to make sure the devs remembered to removed the check marks.

But thank you for telling me all this cause at least now I now I didn't have a brain spasm!

Hi again:)

When you clicked on farm 1 you didnt receive a message to work it, but did you receive any other message?

I have visited your neighbors farms, they are fully worked and they have many factories, so could it be possible they are getting a glitch when posting their facilities? Do you know if other neighbors are having the same problem as you while trying to work their facilities?

Sorry about so many questions, but we are trying to figure out what is happening.:)
2nd reply...I didn't receive any messages when going to his farm 1. When I asked he said nobody else that did his facilities had said anything about only getting farm 24 to work. I know when I posted my facilities after the release one person did report to me they only had one farm to work and guessed it was just the release glitch too. I still have that message from him in my FB messages. I also have one FT message with someone reporting they only got 1 farm from my post. So I know it isn't only me having the problem.

Hi DitzyLuvBug2:)

So sorry for the delay to go back to you:(

Let me understand, you are not seeing all farms when try to work your neighbor facilities and added to that, your neighbors dont see all your farms when you post them for working?

It is sporatic when I am working friends facilities that I only get 1 farm to work when the farmer actually posted all 24 farms. When I went another farm there to see if it would let me work them, it didn't give me any messages and those farms were all invisible. I tried another browser, and did the normal clearing history/cache and the memcache reset. When I posted on the 10/21, I also received two notes from farmers working my facility post saying they only got 1 farm to work when I filled all facilities on all 24 farms.

Post Release Updates - October 24th, 7:30PM EST

- Sorting neighbour bar by Online Status behaves as a month ago, nothing changes.
- Sorting neighbour bar by Cooperative Quests now behaves correctly, current user is always shown to the left of the leftmost neighbour with a blue dot.

- There is a new change in relation to the trains that we just launched, you can now dispatch 2 Locomotives of the same type at the same time, for instance, you can now have 2 Enhanced Freight Locomotives dispatched at the same time as long as they are dispatched on different farms, before you could only have one.

However there are some new buying restrictions, for ex: to buy your first Ultimate Locomotive you need to own one Enhanced Locomotive. To buy your second Ultimate Locomotive you need to own two Enhanced Locomotive.

so if you own 1 of each train already would the buying order for the second set be standard freight 1st, enhanced locomotive 2nd , ultimate locomotive 3rd, supreme 4rd and turbo 5th?

and then you would have 10 locomotives. do all 10 have to be on different farms? so you would have 10 farms each with one train? trying to make sure I understand b4 I go forth.

Hello Beverduster,

Sorry you are having problems with your train on farm 13, is the button light up when you try to dispatch the train? Have you tried to only hook up the one long boxcar that you have attached just to see if it will work? You could try to clear the FT memcache.

To clear the Farm Town memcache close your game if it is open, then click on the link where the Farm Town memcache is in my signature block below, the FT memcache is different than your computers cache, the memcache is on Slashkey's servers and some times old data or bad data gets into the memcache and needs to be cleared. The memcache shouldn't be used all the time, because it clears all the data and when you log back into your farm it will take a little longer since it has to load all the data. After clicking on the link a page of unsettings will appear, this is the memcache clearing and once the page is finished you can close that tab and close you game if it is open, then you can clear your computers cache, cookies, and history. Then you can close your browser, then you can open up your browser again, and open your farm and see if it is working.

Hello beverduster,

I will have to discuss this with the other mods, but I am wondering if you would need to have 2 Standard engines before you could use a 2nd Enhanced engine, since the Standard engines is the engine before the Enhanced engine. The way the note in the New Release states is that you have to have the previous engine to purchase a higher engine and to purchase the 2nd you would have to purchase them starting with the Standard. I am wondering if this is the reason because earlier I purchased a Long Tanker and connected it to the Standard engine and it worked.

[beverduster]

put my long gondola car in storage, now i can get it out of storage, this is getting old very fast, now im beginning to think i got suckered grrrr grrr

[beverduster]

kr, i tried the standard enging 1st & it dint work, then i tried the enhanced & it didnt work then i was stupid enough to put them in storage & now the game wont let me get them out, t y for the come back

Nope! I have 2 of each type of train and I get the message:

"This train can not be dispatched
because you already have five
trains dispatched at this time in
your farm 20.

(if you moved the locomotive from
these farms, put it back to unload
the trains.)

The message comes up immediately when you click on "Show Train Details".

It looks to me like there is still a programmed limit of 5 trains.

Hello KojiOrphen,

Sorry you are having problems also, I don't really know what to do to try and fix the situation, will have to wait until the other mods come online and maybe they might know why you and beverduster are having problems, as I mentioned in the other post, it worked when I tried it with 2 Standard engines. It might be the limit of 5 engines and for others that doesn't have 5 then they could use a 2nd engine.

Hi beverduster, when removing items from storage, you have to have a clear area of land in order to place them. I've been to your farm 13, and it is extremely crowded. You need to try and make a clear area, and once you do this, then you should be able to place your items from storage. :)

Question -
I already have 2 Turbos. Can I buy another Turbo and launch it making 3 Turbos Dispatched or do I have to buy a 3rd of every engine before I can buy a 3rd Turbo? Or, is 2 of each engine the max? I'm so confused I confuse myself.

Good morning, I can't comment on the fix to zoom levels, because it has never really been something I noticed. However, I suspect that the fix has caused another problem that probably is a result. When I open the first farm to fish, I get the symbol for my turbo boat, just as I expect to see it. After doing that farm, and moving to the next, the symbol for the boat has been zoomed out to a point where you can barely see it, and never comes back to regular size. Ditto all my other tools--sprinklers, tree shaker, log truck etc. This has now caused me to irrigate 2 farms I didn't intend to, because I wasn't forceful enough clicking on the walk to clear the tool. Very disconcerting, to say the least.

4. Cooperative Quests Updates (some were launched 1-2 weeks ago):

- Replaced "This transaction could not be completed" message by a more accurate message "Products no longer needed". This is usually a valid message, ex: if you try to sell a product to user X but already another user sold it to user X moments ago, or when you try to buy a product from someone but already another user sold it to you moments ago.

just tried to buy sugarcane from someone and got ~"they don't have any to sell you"

I bought the artisan jewelry stand and placed it on farm 21. I opened it to see what ingredients it takes and saw it takes stuff from the mineral and open pit mines. I noticed when my mouse went over the mine it shows I own 22 mines. I own 24 of each mine. My facility manager shows 24 mines. I went to the jewelry store and that shows I only own 22 mines. I cleared cache, etc. and it stills says 22. I hope I'm getting product from 24 mines and not 22.

Even if the count is off there you would still get all the items from the 24 mines when you store.

Could someone provide some clarification on buying the second set of trains. Maybe it's only obvious to some people but I am detail oriented and need to have things spelled out for me.

I have 1 set of trains already. What I would like to know on the seond set is if the order you buy them in is the same as the first set. Would it be standard freight 1st, enhanced locomotive 2nd , ultimate locomotive 3rd, supreme 4rd and turbo 5th?

and then you would have 10 locomotives. do all 10 have to be on different farms? so you would have 10 farms each with one train? trying to make sure I understand b4 I go forth. Can someone explain it to me. Thanks much

You are right except it is Supreme 3rd and Ultimate 4th.
No all 10 do not have to be on separate farms. You can have 1 of each on a farm, so up to 5 trains on a farm as long as they are all different engines. So you could have 1 set on 1 farm and the second set on a different farm. The only thing you can't do is have 2 of the same engine dispatched at the same time on the same farm.

Hi Boduke,
I tried this and it was normal for me. Were you possibly in a crowd of avatars? That may have forced your message up higher.

[boduke66]

the markets were kind of crowded,this might have been the problem,just wanted to make sure that it wasnt some other problem that might have crept up

Hi Janet,
There are others posting on this too and it has been reported to the developers to see if they can do anything about this. It seems to only be an issue in Chrome, so if you try another browser it may work ok for now.

Okay! I will try Internet Explorer and see if it works! Mine worked fine this morning! Not anymore! :( Thanks Taz!!!

[boduke66]

too add to what Taz said,if your using Chrome,be sure your zoom level is below 150 %,preferably around 125 % or less,otherwise the game gets pushed to the bottom of the page,and you have to scroll down to find it.

Halloween is ending, will the Thanksgiving items be up soon?

The Forum , is very excited to announce the opening of our *NEW DESIGN FORUM**. We felt that many members, were a little disadvantaged within the Farm Competitions, as they did not have the knowledge to create some of the illusions that appear on so many farms. We also felt that many members would love to make their farms more attractive, but did not have access to the knowledge and "know how", in order to do this. We therefore decided, that we should try to change this, and make "Design" information, available to everyone! After much consideration and a little hard work, we have created a New Design Forum, where you can go to find step by step instructions, which are explained in the simplest of terms, along with photo's to guide you. We hope that you will take time to visit, and take advantage of this "new world" that we have opened up for you. Above all else , please have fun and enjoy! To visit the New Design Forum,

The only browser I don't have the same issue on if firefox. I use Spark, Chrome, Maxton and firefox. All have the issue of the farm being at the bottom. I did try adjusting the screen resolution and it did solve the issue but I couldn't see what I needed to see on the farm. Clearly the screen resolution isn't the answer.

this morning I tried to work a factories and it took nearly a minute just to load the farm. Then it sat there and after awhile the message from the farmer to work factories came up. After another while the mayor came up. There were 11 farms to work which normally with a fast internet should take 5 minutes if that. My computer got connection to server time out.

Something is very wrong in FT. I might be able to deal with the farm being at the bottom which is odd that it is happening cause I was having NO problems. I'd been on FB and FT for half a day with no issues. Then later in the afternoon the farm was at the bottom.

I simply have no patience to wait minutes to do anything on farms. Certainly not if it is going to time out. Oh and yes I cleared my history, I cleared my macomedia files and my mem cache. I don't believe it is an issue with any of those.

Factory manager won't load either. First it said 'factory manager could not be retrieved. do you want to try again?' followed immediately by connection to server time out. so unable to work my quests as well.

Hope this issue gets resolved soon.

My Zoom is at 100% on Chrome and my farm is at the bottom of the page--I tried 75%, which moved my farm up a LITTLE, but then I could barely read the writing! I also tried IE --same thing--My farm was at the bottom of the page! I have neighbors having same problem so it isn't just me! I am Just getting so frustrated having to move the sidebar down to find my farm, gifts, ETC! :( (THANKS for your Input! )

Hi Janet amd mpwhitford,
I am sorry you are having this problem. Farm Town has not changed any display size parameters. Facebook has changed the top banner height and may have changed the width on their right column. This has messed up the page layout causing the game to be shifted down the page. Unfortunately this is going to require adjustments between the browser zoom and your screen resolution. The developers have looked at this and can't duplicate it.
Mpwhitford, for your timeout problems try turning your router/modem off for a few minutes to let it clear and corrupt data, then restart it and see if that helps.

same here looks like fb has messed with the sides if you stretch your browser sideways a little it brings the farm back to the top you need it stretched till the side banner shows :(

I guess I am a Complete "DUMMY"??? How do I stretch my browser sideways to bring my Farm back to the top? PLEASE!!!!

[Eradani]

same here looks like fb has messed with the sides if you stretch your browser sideways a little it brings the farm back to the top you need it stretched till the side banner shows :(

this problem would be FB then.

they use <tables> to display stuff and the way that works is

<column>farm town</column>
<column>right hand stuff</column>

since FB keeps fighting with us to make us watch their ads, they define the RHS column so that it must be X pixels wide for their ads. when you make your browser narrower, FB makes the RHS column wider which makes the FT column too narrow to show and so it gets pushed way down under anything that might show in the RHS column.

if you want to get rid of the ads, there's some ad blockers and 3rd party addons for firefox. idk about any other browsers as this is the only one i use.

OR

try making your browser wide but not in full screen (the middle icon on the right of the title bar would be 1 box and not 2 overlapped). then you could drag the browser so the RHS is off the screen. lol

ok I turned my modem/router off. let it recycle through. came back to FT. Tried to work a factory at 9"27. At 9:30 the mayor had gotten through 1 of 5 farms. Then I got conncection to server time out.

I can probably deal with the size issue but if you can get on and not play then not sure what the point is.

My diversification rank seems to be 'stuck'... my 'high' should be a thousand higher than it is showing... what can/should I do?

tried all that - all the server connectivity said ok. The odd thing is FT works as usual - well it displays as usual but still won't load - other browsers won't. going to try my laptop before I post in the thread you suggested. Thanks Taz

ok I was finally able to get on my farm and it is actually working. scrolling down to see my farm isn't a big issue but when nothing was working...... Now I am planting and all is good in FT for now.

Hi Barbie,
Place your mouse pointer on the right outside edge of the browser window. When you see it change to a horizontal double arrow then you can move that side in or out. This only works if you do not have the browser set to full screen.

[beverduster]

are we getting the thanksgiving stuff this year?

Some other games, like Mafia War are having this same problem (Game at bottom of page) It may be a Facebook problem?

Hi Hurican,
I am sorry, but your last collection on Oct 28th was for 2 farm cash. In that date you collected at 12:02 PM eastern time.
You completed 1 quest on the 28th at 4:25 PM eastern after you collected. That quest you lost for today's collection because you did not collect tonight until 9:03 PM eastern which is a delay of 9 hours.
Quests are only good for 7 days exactly to the second after the last step is completed. For you to have collected 2 farm cash today you would have needed to collect before 4:25 PM eastern time today.
This is why we recommend if a quest is not going to be done before your collection time that you wait to start the last step for at least a day after you have collected if you can. That will give you a buffer of time in case you can't collect on time.

Hi brenda,

I am so sorry this is happening, After facebook did whatever they did to cause this issue, our developers have had to try to make it work on lower resolutions screens. unfortunately this has a side effect of the ads overlapping the farm by a few pixels. If i may suggest a couple of options?

1. Use an Adblocker to remove the ads from the page

2. Increase your screen resolution to the next one up?

If you need assistance, just let me know and i will try to help.

[brenda steele]

I have tried different resolutions, just increases or decreases the size of the page not the size of the farm, I do use an adblocker but still have the white panel where the ads should be down the side, still cutting off just under half an inch of the right side of the screen, if i try increasing the zoom as in 110% or reducing it say 90% it still has the same effect as increasing and decreasing the resolution, the whole screen changes not the size of the farm or the size of the ad panel
