See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last updates released on January 9th, 1:00AM EST.

Hi There,

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

1. Christmas items (released 3 weeks ago)

2. 3 Winter Paths: Ice Path, Gray Ice Path, Snow Path and Shoe Prints in Snow, all in the winter category.

3. 5 Animals: Penguin, Panda, Polar Bear, Seal and White Tiger.

4. New Levels: 50 items all in coins.

5. 40 x 40 Farm Expansions for farms 21 - 24: 30 FarmCash OR 20,000,000,000 coins

6. Search feature in the Harvest and Item Storage: There is a Search icon in those windows to quickly find items, similar to the Search in the Facility Manager.

7. Log Truck with Chainsaw 16 x 12: If you already own the Log Truck 12 x 12 then you can buy this new Log Truck to harvest up to 192 trees at once.

8. Multi Planters can now be used for plants in your gift box: Just open your Gift Box and click the Multi button on flowers or trees.

9. Ingredient Planner Improvements: Ingredient Planner in the Facility Manager now shows Service Facilities information as well. You now have the option to select specific Service Facilities in the filter.

Also, when All Facilities is selected in the Ingredient Planner filter, the results will include ingredient numbers for all the facilities in the current view of the Facility Manager, which may include Regular Facilities, Service Facilities or both.

10. Red and Orange Gift Packers: Cut even more the waiting time to send another gift to a friend. If you own the Red one the waiting time will be 3 hours. If you also own the Orange one the waiting time will be 2 hours.

11. 'Store All' Improvements: Some hardcode users with lot of facilities were experiencing errors while doing a Store All operation, this should now be corrected.

12. Other Improvements (some launched a while ago):
- When sending gifts, the 'All Friends' subtab now shows the complete list of friends for each option: 'Farm Town Friends' and 'Friends to Invite'

- The Red "Link FarmTown Account" button in the forum header is working again

Post Release Updates - December 31th, 6:30PM EST

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Hehehe Dec 20st :D - thanks guys

[crafty chris]

ok one small problem (for me) when you said the service facilities were included i thought there was going to be a separate button but they are all mixed up so its harder to work out what i need to fill the facilities only ... but i do like the idea (just would like separate button for them please) :)

[Eradani]

9. Ingredient Planner Improvements: Ingredient Planner in the Facility Manager now shows Service Facilities information as well. You now have the option to select specific Service Facilities in the filter.

thanks eradani i wasnt thinking of that (my excuse is thats it is nearly 4 am here lol)

[Docperk]

Wow I got back just in time, thanks for the updates, looks great.

[Hyacinth Bucket]

Small problem so far - when looking at the facs in the Facility Manager the 'German Restaurant' picture is HUGE compared to the others and is showing on top and nearly covering the 'Open' button.

The other three facs are fine.

[trina531]

Love the new items added to the winter store...I can not wait to see how people use them! Whoopee as always my mind is spinning... Thank you again

[Texas Belle]

Thanks guys from Miami Beach... came in and just knew I would find a news release.. still waiting for my one click harvest of all trees and flowers, lol

You guy are great, wish I knew where you are in Miami so I can thank you in person.. but leaving soon to go back home so maybe on next trip... Love y'all

[vonalm]

i had vowed not to buy anymore stand alone FC facilities but i couldn't resist the German Restaurant ;)

BUT....
it has bratwurst on the menu and instead of making bratwurst it uses hot dogs (!!!???)
plus you forgot to put Kirschwasser (cherry liquor) into the black forest torte. and yes, it's a torte and not a cake ;)

[barbara nixon]

gonna love the new animals when they arrive..wishing all the mediators and Devs a Merry Christmas..Happy New Year....!!!!

Hi Hyacinth,
Email already sent to developers about this. Should be fixed soon.

[beverduster]

thanks raul, there for a moment i thought i was getting a lump of coal, merry christmas to you & the team and the rest of the ft bunch

[TsunamiVince]

Did I miss the "multi" tutorial? I've never seen this before and I don't have a clue what it does.

[Rob T]

Did I miss the "multi" tutorial? I've never seen this before and I don't have a clue what it does.

Hi Vince,

Are you referring to the multi planter tool? This allows you to plant multiple trees or flowers from storage, the store and the giftbox :) saves you needing to plant them 1 by 1

[firegold flames]

i give the rating 8/10, Raul before i comment , let me correct your tiny error
Chineese = Chinese. :)

I am very happy see the improvement made and thanks for the updates.

I hope see other culture restaurant beside German restaurant and etc .

[cocosfarm]

When will we get to use chicle, blue agave, parsnips and royal jelly???

[mac16129]

Thanks for the great updates!! Happy holidays to all the fabulous minds!!

[LazyMare]

set the fac mgr filter to Service Facilites and then only they will show in the Ingredient Planner.

I too am doing the happy dance
And thank you - have just learned how to use the filter funnel in the facility manager :D

And new levels on the way - yay
Thanks Devs :D

[Susan Cuttriss]

Hi Susan,
I am sorry this is happening. I have just checked and all your tools are there. Tool storage doesn't depend on neighbors for space as those are not counted in your storage space. From what I see you have 107 neighbors. For your missing neighbors and greyed out tools please 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.
https://apps.facebook.com/farmtown/play/?do=clear_memcached
The Support link problem has been reported to the developers, so we just have to wait until they find and fix the problem.

[psycho_mommi]

WOW!!!! i woke up to find a new release!woot woot!! looks like a lot of fun, cant wait to get all the new stuff, and maybe do a winter themed farm, now you guys just need to add some snowboarders.. my boys do that instead of ski. or maybe some polar bears on snowboards.. you have them on skis from last year. ANYWAY... thanks so much, and merry christmas to the dev team, and all the mods, and everyone else!! :D:D:D

[psycho_mommi]

ps... i think a stand alone restaraunt is great, gives me more decisions on here, as opposed to 2 fc facs that support each other. GREAT RELEASE!!! :D

[DianeCK]

Thank you love everything.. Merry Christmas....

[maggiel29]

Just noticed a quantity problem with the German Restaurant. It requires 1,200 Cured Herring as an ingredient but the Smokehouse only produces a total of 120 over 15 days!!! Can you knock a nought of one or add to the other please :D Each Pickled Herring needs 10 Cured Herring.

[bjyhey3]

Nice surprise...nice update. I was so involved in the co-op quests I didn't notice right away. Thank You

[Original Tee]

I don't know if this is a new problem with this release or if it's been doing this and I haven't noticed. When I use the excavator to sell in bulk the coins disappear when the farm is refreshed. Example I had 733,219 coins before selling with excavator. I sold all pine trees on my farm and it showed that I had 836,899 coins but as soon as I refreshed my farm I was back to only 733,228 coins. My 32 x 32 farm was full of pine trees so I know 11 coins is not the selling cost of them. I talked with a friend and she tried and the same thing happened to her when she used her excavator. Thanks for always listening and fixing any problems we find.

[dadofkje]

Why must you do this right after I turn my computer off for the night? :D

[Taz D]

He was waiting for you to turn it off...:D

[Dutch85]

What a surprise! I thought Monday would be the earliest for a release! Thank you Raul! I am a huge fan of the two part release, and I love it all as usual! Merry Christmas!

[Susan Cuttriss]

Have already done what you suggested and it didnt make any difference.

[Docperk]

Have we been given any clue as to if the new animals will be just decorative or if they might be producing? I hope producing. :)

[lornagayle]

wondering what number 4 means the 50 items all in coins .

[FarmerMcLashwood]

wondering what number 4 means the 50 items all in coins .

I wondered about that too.

[Farmgirl_Su]

Thank you.. Can someone please explain why we would pay FC for a faster gift giver???

I don't understand this tool..especially to buy it?

thank you

[Taz D]

If it as in the past then it would be 50 more decoration items in the store.

Hi Su,
Its purpose is to allow you to send more gifts faster to your friends and neighbors. The normal waiting time is 8 hours, so these tools shorten that time to allow you to send more gifts to them.

[crowandcutie]

Thanks so very much for every thing new,raul. Have a great sunday.

[trina531]

In the German Restaurant one of the items to make is Pike Dumplings. Northern Pike is one of the ingredients and is located in Frozen Lake...

down here that big lump of coal will keep me nice toasty all winter even if it does get up to 80 in the day time, but it gets down in the 50's sometimes


merry christmas unc stony

[JohnAlbertini]

Desperate! You need to greatly increase the output of petrochemical barrels in the oil refinery. It is impossible to keep petrochemical plant stocked!!!! Now MORE facilities that use products from the petrochemical factory. I never have enough petrochemical barrels to keep them producing. Not even ever close. PLEASE more output from the oil refinery tripled or more is needed!

[kazzaqld]

Nice update!

I wonder if anyone else has this problem? I bought the new log truck, put it on my farm and put it in storage, but now it's disappeared from my storage?

I thought maybe I was mistaken and hadn't really bought it yet? but I have a post on my feed where I did buy it.

:confused:

[Susan Cuttriss]

I want to buy it Kazza but as all my pink tools along with some others have vanished overnight I darent buy it in case that vanishes too.

[marymarcel]

Hi kazzaqld:)

I checked your data and your Log truck 16x12 is in your storage. Please open your storage, then click in Items and set the filter to Tools.

Is the log truck showing up when you open your tool box? thank you:)

[kazzaqld]

HI Mary,

Thanks for checking.

It shows when I open my toolbox, but when I try to use it, it says I don't have it. I just noticed my storage is saying I need more neighbours - maybe that's why I don't see the truck in my storage? Glad you can see it though, that's encouraging!

Will add some more neighbours and see if that helps.

Hi again:)

Perhaps you need to add more neighbors to be able to send more items to your storage, but farmcash items, dont affect the storage amount.

Can you see your log truck when you set your item storage to Tools?

HI Mary,

No definitely not - hopefully the attachment worked?

Gotta get ready for work now, perhaps it will have sorted itself out afterwards?

Thanks for the pic kazzaqld:)

We have another similar report so we will send an email to the developers.

[GoalieAunt]

Just a little picky thing. The gift packers don't show duplicate in the store once you have bought them. The armored car does this as well.

Thank you, T!

[cocosfarm]

The products of the German Restaurant presently are not checked in Non ingredients for me. Should I sell them and check them or will they be neede in the future for another store?

Hi Cocosfarm,
That would be up to you. We have no way of knowing what the future releases will bring and the developers won't tell us before they release them.

[max_river]

Hi Max,
The gift box or the My Requests tab? I have checked both of mine and they open just fine. 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.

I can't seem to find the '50 new items' .... where are they located ??

[dnana]

I can't seem to find the '50 new items' .... where are they located ??

They are not here yet. I am assuming that they will happen in 2 weeks with the new levels....they are written on the same line in the release notes anyway. :)

[NJones277]

Great update, as always. Just a couple problems noticed. One - the co-op quest blurb stays on after you leave the quest and follows everything you do. Been doing this since co-ops started. Two - the picture of the German Restaurant in the facilities manager is huge. Didn't know if anyone else has reported these. Thanks for all the hard work.

Hi NJones,
What co-op quest blurb are you talking about? I am afraid I don't see this.

[TsunamiVince]

Is there a quicker way to load up sheep/llama than purchase one at a time, then move to the shed one at a time? I stopped playing for a bit and wasn't sure if this was added.

I was working someones farm and they had trees hidden by trees. I wasn't able to find the few trees I missed so I couldn't get the completion bonus. It does a great job of highlighting and switching tools when they're spaced out a bit, but when they hidden by larger stuff it is a bit difficult to find them.

Good release! Thanks for the bigger chainsaw!

Hi TsunamiVince,
There are a couple tools you can use for the sheep/llamas. You do still have to buy them and set them down on the farm. There isa Herder tool that will move them to the animal shed all at one time though. Or you can use the Crane to store them all in storage then move them from there to the animal shed with the move button.
The dimout eye can help with those trees if you set it to fully closed (hidden).

[liza1214]

is receiving gifts straight to your gift box on multis a gliche or is it the norm
just wondering as theres no option to change it if its something u dont need the only thing i can do is sell it which seems a waste of time for the people sending them to me and another thing that 1 has to concentrate on so gift box doesnt get to full
just find it time consuming and another thing to the long list of things to keep an eye on would rather recieve them to my requests like other gifts so one has the option to change them
many thanks

Hi Liza,
The only things that go directly to your gift box and not to the My Requests tab are when people click on your belt bonus posts or ingredient requests. Any gift trees or flowers will go first to your My Requests tab, so unless you accept those then the Multi-planter doesn't do anything.

i have in my gift box at present rubber trees roses peach trees with a gold multi label/button on them
duh me its ok have worked it out sorry lol

[Original Tee]

i did more testing with the excavator and i have found that no matter what i sell or how many with it i only get coins for one of the items and i lose the coins for the rest of the items. i put 2 teak trees on a farm and refreshed. my coins showed 458999. i used the excavator on the teak trees and it showed 459101 but as soon as i went to the store to purchase something it showed 459150. instead of the 102 coins for 2 trees i got 51 for 1 tree. i then put 3 bamboo trees on a farm and refreshed. my coin count was 458150. i used the excavator on the bamboo trees and it showed 458177 but when i refreshed the farm i only had 458159. instead of the 27 coins for 3 trees i only got the 9 coins for 1 of them. i'm hoping one of the moderators will test and see if the results are the same. it's no big deal with two or three trees but earlier i lost coins for a whole farm of pine trees. thanks for checking into this.

Hi Original Tee,
I just tried your experiment and I still have the whole amount of coins.

[earlgray]

ok one small problem (for me) when you said the service facilities were included i thought there was going to be a separate button but they are all mixed up so its harder to work out what i need to fill the facilities only ... but i do like the idea (just would like separate button for them please) :)

Yes, in the planner in the facility manager, in addition to "all facilities" (regular and service) or individual facilities, it would be helpful, please, to have the options "all regular facilities" (no service) and "all service facilities."

[Farmgirl_Su]

Hi Taz thank you for the reply re the gift packer, but I meant what are the benefits of buying it,its I think 50FC and it would allow me to send others gifts faster, but wouldn't allow them to send them back to me unless they buy one too.
so its the reason its so expensive and what it's benefits are,that i do not get??

Su

[peekachoo]

To Raul and the Devs, and also the Mods....thanks for the great update, the new levels will be appreciated when they arrive, and thank you all for your hard work throughout the year making this game fun and a diversion from everyday life.

Happy Christmas all !

[maggiel29]

OK - I know Im repeating myself - no one else seems to have noticed but how on earth are we supposed to fill the German Rest with 1200 Cured Herring when the Smokehouse only makes 120 when full each time? If I got no one working my Facs it would take nearly 6 months!!!!

And Im with Su I dont see the point of the Gift Sender for 50 cash unless I can get more gifts! Maybe Im just a mean miserable old woman LOL

But I do love the new Ingredient Planner for Services - in fact I love the Ingredient Planner full stop.

i have retested this numerous times using different items: decorative as well as harvest items. every time i end up only keeping coins for one of the items sold with the excavator instead of the multiples. is it possible you have over a billion coins and forgot to look at the full number by hovering over the coin total instead of just looking at the truncated display? at first i didn't notice this because of the truncation but a friend with less coins insisted they were seeing this problem so i kept testing. after i finally realized my coins were truncated i saw that it really was losing the coins on refresh.

[psycho_mommi]

ok, i am peeved!! i planted 13 farms of thyme, waited for it to grow, hired out to h/p, and then patiently waited for the belt to pop up. i kept getting other belts popping up, canceled publishing any of those, just so i could get the thyme. and IT NEVER SHOWED UP!!! now i am at 7th dan on thyme, so i cant get any more belts, and i cant get the bonus from it either. gggggrrrrrr......

[farm town addiction]

Hi.. firstly merry Christmas and again thank you for all your work and the lates updates. I noted that you have at the end of the announcement that all problems have been fixed but I still cannot accept gifts.. this began after the update and i saw in other groups I am not the only one who had this problem. I thought I would wait a day or 2 to see if it has bee fixed but still a problem. If I open my gift box to collect there is the number of gifts at the top but nothing showing... it then glitches the whole game and I have to reboot.. I have done all the usual.. still the same Using windows 8 and chrome.
Thank you,
Sherrynne

It is my understanding that the bonus you earn with each belt level, and then with each Dan level is for a future harvest - whether you click to share it or not. You still will get your bonuses.

When using your FarmStats tool, you can compare what the crop will yield based on the number of plots on that farm. Then check the box in the lower left corner .... and the new yield will be double if fertilized, and more than double with a bonus.

My "all-crop" farms will yield about 24,800 on their own, and often over 65,000 with the fertilizer and bonus, and I have rarely clicked the different levels as I reached them.

Merry Christmas and you don't have to worry which of Santa's lists you are on..... but we know.;)

i think she meant "posting" the bonus so she can get her share from people who clicked on the bonus...

[TsunamiVince]

Hang on, I moved them to storage and THEN they disappeared. That's a little weird.

do you remember which gifts did you store?

I'm trying to max out Geese in all my coops, so I'm turning everything into Geese.

When you store animals, if you are on a farm where the animals houses are placed, and if they still have space, then when you click to store, the animals go to the houses and not to your storage.:)

[TsunamiVince]

I didn't think to look in the coop!

Thanks for your guidance! :o

Hi pwycho_mommi:)

Have you tried to reload the game clicking in Play?

i was going to, but they kept popping up 1 right after the other, all the way to 7th dan. i thought maybe i had posted too many bonus, but i looked, and i had only posted 3 since yesterday. so i missed every last belt for my thyme. :(

Love the German restaurant, but a person would need a minimum of 10 Smokehouses to make enough Cured Herring for the Pickled Herring. One Smokehouse can produce a maximum of 8 Cured Herring per DAY, and Pickled Herring requires 10 per BATCH, or 80 per day for maximum production. I'm hoping the requirement of 10 per batch is an error, and will be reduced; it would also be nice of the number produced in the Smokehouse would be increased. Also it would be really nice to see the Northern Pike available someplace besides the frozen lake, which I object to partly because it has a cherry tree in bloom next to it (who ever saw a cherry tree blooming next to a frozen lake in real life?).

[Tom C]

Has any one noticed the game running slower since say last Thursday or Friday. On my lap top it took me over 30 minutes to harvest the trees and flowers on one farm. On my desk top it took a farm the same size 16 minute to do.

[earlgray]

The bookshop should have more books - like a novel, a book about farming, a history book - and probably an e-reader too.

I noticed this about the smoked herring as well - it would take 6 months with no neighbours working facs to get enough to fill up the German Rest!!! Please Devs do something! (Although I did find the ingredient request helps)

[Darrell Joe]

thanks for all the new goodies. PLEASE do something about PEARL OYSTER quantities-absurdly low, can't even come close to 1 items needs let alone 2 in jewelry fac. Thanks!
Merry Christmas & Happy New year to all

[Orx]

Thank you for the update a great Christmas present. A Merry Christmas to you all.

[i try]

set the fac mgr filter to Service Facilites and then only they will show in the Ingredient Planner.

Same problem. Chekboxes as we have for selling things in the Market would make me happy!
ThanXXX

[i try]

9. Ingredient Planner Improvements: Ingredient Planner in the Facility Manager now shows Service Facilities information as well. You now have the option to select specific Service Facilities in the filter.

Also, when All Facilities is selected in the Ingredient Planner filter, the results will include ingredient numbers for all the facilities in the current view of the Facility Manager, which may include Regular Facilities, Service Facilities or both.

Thank you, Happy Holidays to all of you at Slashkey, we love ya!!!

hahaha, guess I didn't know what I was reading. Totally misinterpreted this one.

What meaning Spacific?

How do i opt out of seeing my service facilities but still see all my factory requirements? One facility at a time, or,slowly, as all that unneeded data slows me wayyy down?

Set your filter (the funnel) in the Facilty Manager tho show only facilities and then go to the Ingredient planner.

i did more testing with the excavator and i have found that no matter what i sell or how many with it i only get coins for one of the items and i lose the coins for the rest of the items. i put 2 teak trees on a farm and refreshed. my coins showed 458999. i used the excavator on the teak trees and it showed 459101 but as soon as i went to the store to purchase something it showed 459150. instead of the 102 coins for 2 trees i got 51 for 1 tree. i then put 3 bamboo trees on a farm and refreshed. my coin count was 458150. i used the excavator on the bamboo trees and it showed 458177 but when i refreshed the farm i only had 458159. instead of the 27 coins for 3 trees i only got the 9 coins for 1 of them. i'm hoping one of the moderators will test and see if the results are the same. it's no big deal with two or three trees but earlier i lost coins for a whole farm of pine trees. thanks for checking into this.

i just lost 6 million coins this way! i was clearing my farm with my excavator and it said i'd get 4 million coins for that farm. when i went to clear the second farm it said i'd get 2 million coins for that one. each time it reset to the amount of coins i had before i used the excavator and sold everything. not happy at all. :mad:

Am I the only person who is puzzled by all the new CARTOON animals? Everything else on our farms is quite realistic and these don't seem to fit anywhere on my farms. Don't get it.

Are the alligator, skunk, wild boar, flamingo and ram used for anything or are they just for decoration?

[Santmyer]

I have a huge complaint. I put the suggestion in a long while ago for existing trees to be made to fit 16 trees in a 4 by 4 square layout, and cannot believe that you would create a new tree with a extra big footprint

Hi Lucille,
Do you mean it is showing no animal sheds, facilities or services? I f so click on the funnel filter at the top and make sure all of those are checked at the bottom and make sure you have it set to All facilities on All farms.

[Farmgirl1706]

Still waiting on that gift box fix.........cant retrieve any gifts cause the tab is blank......cant close it unless you leave the game.......hope it gets fixed soon

You do realize that in real life some trees are bigger than others? Maybe the multi-planter tool should be adjusted to accommodate for the different size of trees instead of changing the size of the trees.

[abarrow]

im on wf3 have cleared my cache, and memcache restarted putter, I went to the market at 4 am to hire help, and there was no one there, so I waited went back at 5 am and then again at 6 am and again just now and still no one there, so I went to the inn and the other market to buy and no one, , this is very strange I have never gone to the market and had absolutely no one there before, so I set there and waited an still no one, is there anyone else having this problem?

it is now 8:30 am and I just went to the market and again I am not able to anyone? there has to be a problem, as my sister went to the market and she can see people

ok I just did a memchace from the market and then went back and now I can see people so issue seems to be resolved.

You do realize that in farm town no items are scaled in size to be in proportion with other items? Never have been and probably never will be. That was not the point of my post.

Hi Clohar,
I just loaded your farm without any problem or slowness, so the Farm Town server you are on is not the problem. Try all the suggestions in the first post of the following thread:
http://www.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=352666

[peekachoo]

I too have had problems farming today, mainly with harvesting, it's been painfully slow. But I've put it down to it being the first Saturday after the update when many more farmers are about adjusting farms and working. I'm a patient type and I'll wait till Sunday morning here in the UK when it's usually quieter and easier to get things done.

[carolynvasco]

I own the first Gift Packer, but am unable to purchase the second one, as the Store thinks I do not own any, and it would only let me buy a repeat of the first one.

[Mrs Borgies]

I appreciate the updates for Farm Town, although it seems to have messed the "Store All" at once for my facility products. The only way I can be sure to get all my products is to empty each facility using the individual store all button, which is so time consuming. The figures are way off. I have tried both Firefox and IE plus done all the clean up of cache etc before posting here.
I am uncertain if the Cash Out All button is doing the right thing, hence I also claim individually so that I don't miss out on my coins. :confused:

I was under the impression that if I purchased cotton from someone it would be applied to a quest? This appears to not be the case.

Something I would like to see fixed if it can be. When you are hired through the marketplace to work someones farm and when you get done there is one tree flower field or something that will not harvest that does not allow you to get your bonus.

when that happens to me (seldom) I just go to the smallest tool (that picks only one thing) and use that. It has always worked for me.

Hi Pumpkin's:)

If this happens to you again, you need to refresh the farm where you are working by clicking in the farm rectangle and then try every single tool you were hired for to check is something was left on the farm.:)

i am again grumpy because i lost 2 belts that never popped up while my person was wroking. i havent even posted any bonuses today!! i had a 5th dan on the anise, and thru harvesting got to 7th dan, but nothing ccame up. grrrrrrrr i rely on these to store up extra, and when they dont come up it makes me mad :mad: other then that, love the new release. you devs and mods all rock!! woot woot

Great update

not sure the gift packers should be FC as i dont see the value in paying to send more gifts so they wont be on my buy list but other then that all great

love the new facilities :D

The gift box glitch is approaching unfunny at this point......does gifts expire if you dont except them after so many days? Cause why except them when you cant retreive and store them :(

Hi Farmgirl,
The gifts in your My Requests do not expire after so many days. I am sorry, but until the developers can find the problem and fix it then there is nothing to be done for this. They do not ork 24/7 so it takes a few extra days to fix a problem if it happens during the weekend or at night. Please be patient.

[Farmgirl1706]

Thanks taz i understand.....at least i know they wont expire ......hoping they fix it soon!

What happens to the trains that arrive in our My Requests box but we can't see them because the box is full-do we lose those products as well? Will a notice come out at the top of the page saying this problem is fixed, in case individuals are still having problems?

Hi Texlady,
Are you saying you can't see the items in the My Requests? If you can then the trains will be in the top part of that. Newer gifts/trains always show at the top of the list as the listing is from newer down to older. If you are checking daily or more often then you should be able to get any trains. When you click on those the products go directly to storage and not into the gift box.

My request box has over 50 items and I can not accept them because I can not send them to my gift box because it is full also and I cannot get in it until problem is fixed. I accepted ONLY the trains that were visible in my requests but other items replaced them and now no more room for newer items, including trains

[Farmgirl1706]

Yeah i hear you Texlady........everytime i go into farmtown it says my giftbox is full cause of dan bonuses i posted in the last couple of days........been only helping people with trains from my requests tab and havent been accepting and storing any gifts since last friday cause i cant go in and store them..........probably got hundreds of gifts to accept at this point "sigh" :/

If a new train or gift is sent then it will bump the older gifts down. You can only see 50 gifts/trains at one time in the My requests, but when this is fixed and you accept your 50 gifts then the older ones show up in the my requests. So you are not losing out on trains or those gifts.

[Taz D]

Raul has just posted this:
Post Release Updates - December 30th, 6:00PM EST

- Bug Fix: Gift box sometimes shows empty even when it's full of gifts.

Please close and restart your farm for the fix to take effect.

[JoDanzer]

I own the first Gift Packer, but am unable to purchase the second one, as the Store thinks I do not own any, and it would only let me buy a repeat of the first one.

i think i bought the first one twice as well

[Rob T]

it appears you need to have the gift packer on the farm you are on when upgrading, i will need to see that gets sorted out somehow

ETA: This should now work from storage, please let us know if this is not the case, thankyou :)

new Levels (coming in about 2 weeks): 50 items all in coins.

Umm I just opened my quest manager to complete my quest, I thought I had completed a couple and should have some points for them but didn't, thought I might had already claimed them but wasn't sure so I completed the one I had and did not get any credit for it so now I am sure I lost some points for completed quest.

you have not lost anything it is noy just the dev have boo informed about it

[cocosfarm]

I had at least 6 quests completed 7 hours ago. Now my score reads 0. Please replace them before my time is up to claim farm cash on 1/2/15 in the early evening. Thank you

[cocosfarm]

Hi Cocosfarm,
Open the facility and make sure the box for smoked salmon has a check in it.

TY Taz- I forgot to check that

Your quests are there but you just can't see them in the chart. When it comes time for you to collect the button will turn blue and you will be able to collect for all completed quests.

[boduke66]

How are we suppose to know how many we have completed,the chart shows 0,when i myself know i completed 1 quest,not sure about anyone else but i find this unacceptable,sorry just frustrated by not being credited for quests completed.

Hi Boduke,
None of us can see how many we have at the moment. Unfortunately this happened tonight. I assure you that the developers will fix it as soon as they can.
You are being credited for the quests you complete.

[boduke66]

glitch has been fixed,completed quests are now showing correctly,great job developers.

[knolan]

>> Thank You for #8. Multi Planters can now be used for plants in your gift box: Just open your Gift Box and click the Multi button on flowers or trees. Great job!!

[ImajeanB]

Nice update!

I wonder if anyone else has this problem? I bought the new log truck, put it on my farm and put it in storage, but now it's disappeared from my storage?

I thought maybe I was mistaken and hadn't really bought it yet? but I have a post on my feed where I did buy it.

:confused:

This did happen to me tonight with the same log truck. After searching and clearing memocache and restarting I found it on the farm I had first placed it on, hiding behind some turkeys! lol It evidently didn't go to storage the first time I tried sending it. Hope you find yours!

[Docperk]

you have not lost anything it is noy just the dev have boo informed about it

Yes thank you Devs, mine was returned and working the next morning.

[Original Tee]

i am again grumpy because i lost 2 belts that never popped up while my person was wroking. i havent even posted any bonuses today!! i had a 5th dan on the anise, and thru harvesting got to 7th dan, but nothing ccame up. grrrrrrrr i rely on these to store up extra, and when they dont come up it makes me mad :mad: other then that, love the new release. you devs and mods all rock!! woot woot

are you in full screen when you are harvesting these crops? my bonuses don't show up in full screen. sometimes when i exit full screen the last one is still there for me to post but not always. you may not want to be in full screen if you know you are going to get a bonus to post.

[Soozy]

I know that when we don't own certain tools they are greyed out. Is it my imagination that the newest logger/chainsaw is not grey out? I see it as white even though the one before it is greyed.

Hi Soozy,
It may be diffiecult to tell the difference between the white and the greyed out. If you click on it then it should tell you that you need to buy it.

[beverduster]

why isnt farmtown loading without crashing?

[marymarcel]

why isnt farmtown loading without crashing?

Hi beverduster:)

It seems that Facebook is running some changes and everytime they do this, a group of users are affected. They are stuck in Loading user or if they can load the farm after some time, they have issues with the game.

Sadly the only thing we can do is wait for Facebook finishes whatever they are doing and then go back to the game.:)

[Sabrinarose]

thanks so much

so if it's a facebook issue, will farmers be compensated (somehow) for lost quests, crops, et cetera, because the game won't load? i get as far as 'loading user', but nothing beyond that (as of 6 pm alberta time, GMT-7); i have crops to harvest, quests to finish, you get the picture - if the 'grace period' runs out, but it's not my fault (or slashkey's), what do we do then?

nvm, it's working now (at least, it is working from where i'm sitting)...

[Qivis]

Not time to look ....

Plywood Sheet in Construction materials does not load under "start all"

I have at least 20 times as many Acacia trees for Arabic Gum as I saw when I looked through all 24 your farms. I still run out of it. The reason the Plywood does not load is most likely because you have also used the ingredient for other items that require it.

Hi Soozy,

Mine Chainsaw is showing white and grayed out too, but the gray one is the purple one. Now, I was pretty sure I had bought that (I can't put too much money into the game like I used to do so when I buy a tool, I remember). I wanted to check for sure in the store, and it said I already OWNED the purple one, BUT it is NOT in my storage. The best I can figure is I have it on one of my farms. When I purchase one; I immediately put them in storage BUT the last few months have been a little wacky so it is very possible it is still sitting on a farm -- EXCEPT I CANNOT FIND IT...so I could use some help.

NOTE: Any other tool that I DO NOT own is grayed out, EXCEPT that white chainsaw. I do not own the white one nor have I purchased it. The purple one I do own, but cannot find it. Thanks for any help.

Hi Servocrow,
The 12x12 (purple) log truck was not released until May last year. I can see your data for farm cash purchases back until February of last year and I do not see that you purchased it. I see the purple tree shaker and purple flower harvester bought in April, but not the log truck.

twenty-five cash will be spent in a flash

lol so true on that

[SeniorCornwall]

Come on people. The developers are simply using a creative calendar. Something like the one governments use. You know - the same one that says a TEMPORARY income Tax would be imposed to cover a one time cost, the methodology on how to achieve balanced budgets, running efficient and effective operations at public funds and being a government of the people for the people.. :)

[Qivis]

by my calander its past 2 weeks

Beware the grammar Nazis since you left out an apostrophe! (Just kidding. I knew you meant "it's" and I'm always spelling calander wrong myself) Remember the calendar is different for the developers because the promised dates are based on assuming that everything is going well and that they can do the coding in time. So the time's always "about" the time and not exactly the time. Speaking of time, thanks for the thyme!

[Qivis]

Some day..:)

Thanks Taz. Now I've got Mariah Carey going through my head and it's not even 6am yet.... ;)

[Jean's Farm]

About the "coming in two weeks" thing. All I have to say is "Remember the flowers".......they were coming soon forever!!!!!!

[beverduster]

i blame it on last years calander

[jmfslots]

For several years, we received 2 Farm Cash for every level. What happened to that?

[Qivis]

For several years, we received 2 Farm Cash for every level. What happened to that?

It was only for a few specified levels and it only happened once or twice to reward people for sticking with it. It has been 6 or 7 months since I was an official helper, so maybe one of the current official helpers or moderators will remember on which level the "special reward" started.

[Qivis]

About the "coming in two weeks" thing. All I have to say is "Remember the flowers".......they were coming soon forever!!!!!!

Too bad I've erased the picture of it from my data files, but I seem to remember that Farm Town uses a clock with twelve fives in a circle. Maybe the Farm Town Calendar uses thirty one ONES! :D:D:D

[texlady]

For several years, we received 2 Farm Cash for every level. What happened to that?

Those "specified levels" were NUMEROUS and lasted a long time. Since problems with Farm Town and Facebook have INCREASED, we should be given MORE incentives to remain with the "game" rather than being penalized for being SO PATIENT!!

Hi Texlady,
There was one time that everyone received 2 farm cash for levels 386 to level 400 in December 2012. The other time was for Christmas December 2013 and was only for those who were long time players with enough experience to jump up some or all of those levels.
Since we haven't gotten the new levels yet for this release then we don't know how many we will get.

No wonder I couldn't remember when they were. I have not failed to be well ahead of the top level since at least back in 2011 if not earlier. :cool:

[SeniorCornwall]

I am also reluctant to complain about arrival dates on anything - anticipation and impatience for sure - but understand people have other things do to than get me my updates when I want. The fact that I want them all the time doesn't help. As soon as the December one was delivered I wanted the January one :)

[JohnAlbertini]

Just wondering when we will get these?

The Dec 20th announcement said "about two weeks" and its been 18 days and a total of 111 days since the last increase on Sept 18th.

[Majik Merlin]

I have question about the guest counter. Don't know which version this applies to, but I just recently noticed it. Since it just happened again, I thot I would ask. When I claim a finished quest, one of the days starts flashing and the quest that completed during the night was posted on a day 5 days back (left on the row) rather than today (or yesterday if it completed before midnight). Question is why and what is the flashing date for?

Hi Majik,
The flashing date was added last month. From Raul's post:
After a quest is redeemed you will see an animation on the chart counter and day where that quest was accounted for
The quest will show on the chart fro the day the last step completed. It doesn't show on the day you collect the coins.

That is how I thot it should be; however, imagine my wonder when I started the last step 'yesterday', it finished during the night last night (probably before midnight) yet when I collected the coins this morning, the date flashing was 5 days ago.

I am not sure why it is flashing that far away, but as long as it gets posted on the right day then shouldn't be a problem. I have seen this too, but as long as my quest goes on the right day then it is ok.

problem is...... it didn't. hope this was just a fluke

[Taz D]

Where did it show up and where in the list in the Show Quests did it show? What was the quest for?

[Texas Belle]

Isn't it time to close this so we can get on to the next release? Wishful thinking here!!

[SeniorCornwall]

We will get them when we get them :) As soon as they are here we will want the next release.... maybe around the 15th if we move up date or around the 20th if patterns stay the same.... next release will have.... and the debate begins...

[StoneFace]

I like the mid-release release......

even if it is just levels, or adding a crop or something for coin. Keep it up devs.

Yes ditto - I keep doing ingredient requests which helps some. I said this the day the new release came out there would be a problem.

Thank for the new levels tho Raul and I love the ingredient planner for Services as well as Facs.

Attention everyone.

The Moderators, Administrators and Helpers DO NOT have control of what appears in the game or when anything within the game is released. None of us are developers, and it is the developers that have control of that. We give up our time for the forum to help those that need help with the game.

[Dutch85]

Thank you for the new levels and FC!!!!!! You are awesome!!!!
