See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last info posted on March 31th, 6:10AM.

Hi There,

We just released a new version of the game with the following new features and bug fixes: EN ESPAÑOL AQUI (http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=621102)//En français ici (http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=621130)

1. New St Patrick and Easter items: 6 St Patrick items (released a week ago) and 10 new Easter items.

2. 42 x 42 expansions for farms 21 - 28: 20000000000 coins or 30 FarmCash.

3. 25 New Levels: Top level is now 725.

4. Added the 'Dead Roses Pot' to the Farm Decor category: This is a useful item that experienced designers use regularly to create realistic farms.

5. Belt and Dans for the next 10 facilities: Australian Restaurant, Irish Restaurant, Uniform Factory, Summer Gear Factory, Cuban Restaurant, Irrigation Supplies Factory, Windows and Doors Factory, Canadian Restaurant, African Restaurant and Orchard Supplies Factory.

6. Super Storage Tools (35 FC): Red Super Storage Shed duplicate item storage size. Orange Super Storage Shed will make your item storage 4 times as big.

7. Continued the development of the Neighborhood Chains Contest: We spent most of the time on this release developing this feature, we estimate we should be able to release the first version in 1-2 weeks.

This is a weekly contest where 10 Farmtown neighborhoods compete against each other by operating the longest and most productive facility chains. Here are some preliminary rules and concepts:

a) Your neighborhood is just the collection of all your neighbours, that will be your team
b) A neighborhood chain for facility X is the collection of all the facilities X that you own plus the ones that your neighbours own
c) Every week 4 facilities will be selected and 4 neighborhood chains will be automatically created for those facilities in your neighborhood
d) Groups of 10 neighborhoods each will be pre-selected by the game and their members will start competing
e) The winning neighborhood will be the one that earn the most XP points by producing or stocking goods on those 4 neighborhood chains
f) We are still deciding what the rewards will be

We will post more information here in the coming days.

8. New Collard Greens Crop

9. Carwash Supplies Factory (FC): Produces Carwash Supplies

Paste Wax
Applicator Pads
Buffing Pads
Car Wash Mitt
High Pressure Nozzle
Wheel Brush
Windscreen Squeegee
Polisher

10. Mascot Factory (Coins): Produces Mascots

Elmo Mascot
Olympic Mascot
Nemo Mascot
Minion Mascot
Android Mascot
Dog Mascot
Oriental Doll Mascot
Pinocchio Mascot

11. Grandmas Country Kitchen (FC): Produces Southern American Food

Fried Green Tomatoes
Turnip and Greens
Beans and Ham
Chicken Fried Steak
Chicken and Dumplings
Fried Pork Chop
Seafood Gumbo
Bread Pudding

New products in other facilities: Cornbread in the Bakery.

Enjoy!

Hi bruhelmboldt,
The Diversity Ranking sets your buying amount for when you buy from another farmer.

Thank you for the dead rose pots. Now I can delete them out of storage and free up some space! This has made my day! Thank you for all the other goodies, like always happy to see new items! for anyone who does not understand the reason for the dead rose pots, they are used by designers, and they were the only small black item, that you could do so so much with. They were a seasonal item, and many of the designers would store as many as they could to use on future designs. So, Thank you for putting them into the store!

I have heard that there is a way to do the facilities in one posting and not having to go to each one, what do you have to do, to do this?

You need what I call the facility tools. These are all FC items, so it takes awhile to be able to buy them all.

The forklifts, bottling machines, drive thru systems, tables and chairs, mixers,
belt dryers, loaders, conveyors, packing machines, workbenches, mobile utility carts, armored truck, express checkout station, manual lift truck. I also recommend the animal harvesters.

I haven't used the 'Dead Roses Pot' for designing but there are a few other seasonal items I sure wish you'd add to the always-available items - especially the "Scary Cave" and the pink and white spring trees.

Rewards should be farm cash. How can that be a mystery?

Valdoe
Mar 11 2016, 12:10 AM
It is getting boring now... all we do is seed harvest and plow.. fill and empty facilities. harvest trees and fish. and we have so many farms.

Great game but need something new... some challenges in the game.. eg stock exchange so depending on how much products being sold or bought that prices should drop when there is a glut if to much of the same product being sold.

Or x amount of uses of tools.. efficiency goes down by 20% until send tool to mechanic shop to be repaired that will need x amount of coins and a few hours to be 100% again.

or random weather - sunny day rainy day and snow day
eg if depending on the weather if you seed or harvest. you may seed on a sunny day.. but when you go to harvest.. you if it raining you may want to delay harvest till a sunny day or if harvest is near waste harvest rather loose all the harvest..
Sunny day - seed or harvest 100%
rainy day - if seeded or harvested only 70% crop value
Snow day no seed or harvest allowed.

The game has gone past the point of more farms and higher levels... many have played farmtown for many years and need some new excitement and change in the game.:confused::confused::rolleyes:

Mar 11 2016, 05:30 AM
Not very sure this future Neighborhood Chains Contest is such a good idea.
Farm Town is liked because there is no competitive issues involved in it.
Bringing in such could damage it severely. For one some people have over a hundred neighbours, some are lucky to be able to even reach 30.yet they manage to keep up there.but creating something where there is no hope for certain groups to win will certainly bring in frustration and contempt. I for one will not be even interested in it

I'm reserving judgment until I see it implemented, but I do hope it has an opt-out feature for those who don't want to participate (or maybe an opt-in for those who do?). I'd hate to bring my neighborhood's score down by not wanting to play.

I know a lot of people who design their farms use them somehow. Not sure but I have seen poodles they designed with the dead roses as fur. Maybe an designer will chime in here.

Awesome release.....am looking forward to seeing the neighbor game.

I do have one problem. I planted 6 farms with Collard Greens. My super neighbor harvested them and told me she was done so I could go post my bonus. I am at the 7th on these now and have not got the pop up to post. I saw it saying the yellow and blue were done but nothing since. Not fair cause I didn't do it myself????

Reserving judgement also....if there is no opt out to people who do not want to play it can bring it down for all who do.....UNLESS it helps those who do to win and get the prize cause fewer are playing. Hmmmmm...just have to wait and see.

Haven't posted any today at all. This was the first collards that were harvested on my farm. Only posted corn bread if I posted any yesterday and I only post one of them. This has happened to me before not getting to post bonuses. Seems every new crop it happens to cause I let my Super Neighbor harvest and plow.

Have you tried to reload your farms? then do something on them and check if the pop up is showed up.

If this happens to you everytime your superneighbor works for you, then it would be better if next time you stay on the farm, moving and refreshing and check if you get the pop up to post your bonuses.

Lost track of how many times I have done all of the above. The point is I should NOT have to wait while she is working. The bonuses should pop up when I open my farm. I saw it across the bottom telling me about all the lesser bonuses that you can't post. I waited and it never did give me ANY of them to post. :(

Hi Jean,
I am sorry, but this does seem to happen more often when there is a new crop, tree or flower and someone other than the farmer harvests them without the owner being on the farm. Unfortunately there isn't any way for us to restore those belts to you.

I bought both of the new storage sheds and they are nowhere to be found. When I revisited the store, it indicates that I didn't buy either one and the orange one shows as "locked" until I buy the red one. I spent $70 FarmCash on these and would like this fixed - please and thank you.

Hi jaohlinger,
The sheds are on one of your farms, maybe hidden under or behind something else. Please turn everything except tools in your preferences then search your farms for them. Be sure you put them in storage so they will work.

I bought both of the new storage sheds and they are nowhere to be found. When I revisited the store, it indicates that I didn't buy either one and the orange one shows as "locked" until I buy the red one. I spent $70 FarmCash on these and would like this fixed - please and thank you.
Found them! Thanks so much

As soon as I asked, it disappeared and I was told the activity hasn't been activated yet. I guess they were testing it. It was up on the left where the brown and light blue quest cubes appear.

almost had a heart attack.. opened the "show farm stats" tool and it told me I had to enlarge some farms.... thankfully I did the memcache, hit the back button and was able to open it again and its all back to normal, can see all products on all farms again, PHEW!!

Need to comment on a couple things.

First is the idea of making the game more real by having rainy days and sunny days. I for one work and plan my planting around when I work so it would really upset me if I planned on harvesting crops when I got home but could not do so because it was raining. Doing something like that would make the game hard for me to play.

Second is the neighbor hood chain thing. I do not think that is something I would want to be apart o,f but will wait and see. I load all my factories at once and have enough inventory that I am able to load them all at nearly 100%. Also I load them for a few days at a time and then a couple weeks will pass before I load them again.

Never mind - I reloaded the game and the problem went away.

[There's a problem with farm sizes. When I try to display trees ready to be harvested on all farms, it says I need at least 8 farms that are at least 30x30. I have 7 farms that are actually 30x30 and one that's 32x32, but FarmTown is currently showing that all my farms except #1 (which it shows as 24x24) are 26x26 (some are actually smaller).]

Awesome release.....am looking forward to seeing the neighbor game.

I do have one problem. I planted 6 farms with Collard Greens. My super neighbor harvested them and told me she was done so I could go post my bonus. I am at the 7th on these now and have not got the pop up to post. I saw it saying the yellow and blue were done but nothing since. Not fair cause I didn't do it myself????
I had this issue too. Not a chance to get bonuses for collards. Even though I hadn't posted for any bonuses, the game acted like I had used up all my chances to post for bonuses...On the collards that is. When just moments later I refilled factories was getting bonus pop-ups like crazy.
So I am at 7th dan for them and not a chance to post a one for collards.

I hear ya on that.... but then I got to thinking... maybe if the devs could make that option available (for FC of course), and give the ability to turn it on or off. When it is on, then it might (or might not) rain, snow etc, depending on how long it was left on... random occurrence events.

First of all, Thank You for the updates...

Secondly, I apologize for not "Thanking You" more frequently...

I just finished reading many, many posts and all I can say is WOW !!!!

Doesn't seem that you all can give enough or fast enough...

There are a lot of Farmers that have no idea what it was like to harvest, plow and plant, 1 square at a time... Back then, it would take you 24 hours to make a million coins... Now, you can make that in 15 minutes or less...

Anyway... Thank You !

:confused:

My 2 cents: Farm Town is something I can control. It's dependable. I find it relaxing to know I won't wake up and find a couple of farms lost to a storm. Losing that control would make FT just one more stress, albeit a small one. That's not why I play. Happy farming!!

I am experiencing a new problem this morning. When I click on the Show farm Stats (ready now), flowers on Farm 1 are showing as ready. These flowers will not be ready for another 18 hours. Is this a new glitch with the game or something I have to take care of on my end?

Side comment....I have played the game since almost the beginning, and long since all of my original friends quit playing. I like the game because there is no stress. I play and interact at my pace. If disasters are introduced and I have to worry about anything with this game, count me in as one of the players who will stop. I won't pay real dollars either to disable this feature.

Thank you Thank you for another great release... My favourite: THE RED & ORANGE STORAGE SHEDS... I can now store 7,000 items :D!!!... wish this was introduced in the previous release, then I would have stocked up on the couple walking and the old couple, oh well...

I still feel the 'people items' available only in seasonal category should be available all year round (if it is not obvious which season it is, like young couple walking wearing jeans & a windbreaker (I have already posted it suggestions)...

I spent over 20 minutes looking for the post where 'weather disasters' were going to be included in the game, and that we would be paying FC to turn on&off the said disaster, then found the post where it all started... phew!!!... realized it's just a 'suggestion' started by a player who seems to be bored with the game and needs a challenge... Well, I for one, am a very Happy Farmerette the way FarmTown is presently and where it seems to be going... As some of you who have stated (when you get home from work) that if you find your crops wasted or withered because a disaster struck your farm you'd be very upset, well so would I... an alternate would be if we had the capability to change the background 'green' colour' to daylight (sky blue) or night/evening (darkish blue with stars) or a grey sky (we would add the rain clouds etc.) would be great... each 'sky' could be FC the first time you buy it (like the squared ground grid) then after that 100 coins every time you switch (I will post that in the suggestions also)...

Again, thank you for another great release!!!... :D

HELP... can't upgrade and they have shrunk.. will do all the requisite clean up and will report again.. but this is a heartbreaker... I am not upgrading all the farms again, I want them like they were...

Hi Grumpdad,

I belong to a design group on FB. I have seen farms designed for Halloween. There was a Haunted House scene......pumpkins done all in black with their carved faces....stuff like that. They use the dead roses pot as the black of the house and lettering spelling out Happy Halloween things like that. They only had Halloween stuff to show cause that was the only time they could get the roses. They are scenes that look like pictures. One did a large dead tree with an owl perched on it.

They were also doing Pictures on their farms of the Disney Princesses.....Most likely the black hair was done in the dead roses pots.

Like Maggie said they can make curves with them instead of straight lines.

Hi Tucker,
I am not sure how you got a link to that, but it is not a new Farm Town. You can't log into it to use it and that is why you got the message. It is a test set up for the developers to use when they test new things they are working on for adding to Farm Town.

It showed up on the side when I was playing Farmtown .. Where it says games your friends are playing ... I saw it was Farmtown and thought it might be another game they were starting up .... So that was Facebook running that link alongside the game .. Its bad enough they mess things up all the time without doing that ....

I can understand the level of "shock" at 20 billion coins to expand.

but....

If a player feels the need/want to expand to the new level of, say, 42x42, it is most likely because they have many, many facilities and crops and "need" more room to continue their growth.

If they have that great number of facilities etc, they are able to make a few billion each week..... or much more. Thus the cost of expansion is NOT so great for them.

I also think that some players quit Farm Town because they have either moved on to different types of games, or perhaps they get bummed at not being able to do what others do. The first reason, I can understand. The second reason is just a misconception of what the game really offers (IMHO), which is the ability to play at your own level, and in your own way.

You seem to have been playing FT for a long time, like me and many others. I have played for the simple enjoyment and relaxation it provides. I was never one to want to achieve the largest operation in the shortest time, but have now reached a point where all those facilities and farm expansions are generating a billion or so every week. I still have a long way to go to catch up to the big guys, but that's not my goal. I like FT and always look forward to the new releases. Hope you do too.

Hi Stu,
Check your computer date and time as that is the only thing that will cause time on a production to be incorrect.
The 30 minute items from the semi-trailer truck will take an hour because the quests do not look to see what tools you have, so it doesn't shorten those.
What 4 hour item took 14 hours? I don't see any 4 hour item in your current open quests. What quest was this for and what item was it?
Copper ore takes 8 hours to produce unless you required more that 1 batch. What quest was this for?

Hi Taz

CQ
The Hibatchi Veg Produce 30/30 (1 batch) was the item that should have been 4 hours however when i posted (took a screen shot too) was 14 hours

Quest
Hair pin was the copper ore to be 50/50 (1 Batch for the hair pin) was started hours ago went back before i posted and it was 11 hours since i put post up these have dropped back as they should have.

RE: the 30 mins items taking 1 hr the Semi Truck takes 30 mins to produce a batch if i didn't have 1 the Quest would not allow it to start so why is it when you do start it then it immediate shows 30 mins but close the Quest manager and return and the 30 mins has doubled hasn't always been this way

Hi Stu,
Your Hibachi Vegtables- if it is taking that long then and according to your data will be completed at 10:16 PM eastern time. It appears then it was started at 6:16 PM eastern time. If that was not the time you started it then your computer date time would have to have been incorrect when you started it.
I do not see a hairpin quest for you. I see Farmtown Peach Beer and Traffic Cone in progress. Either way it sounds again like computer date/time being off.
For your 30 min vs 1 hour it has always shown 1 hour for the semi-truck deliveries. As said before the quest manager does not look to see what tools you own. It verifies the facilities, in this case the semi-truck, but does not check if you have the ordering station to speed up the order.

Mar 25 2016, 09:52 PM
Apparently today you released a change requiring people to have a specific minimum of farms by size to access farm stats.
This is not a friendly thing to do to people who have been using it for a long time. It was useful to check on crops etc without navigating to each farm. This should be a relief to the volume of activities that slows things down.
Worse than that is that I could not use the feature today and I have 28 farms and 23 are 34x34 or larger. It is Broken. from a long term user who feels that FT is maybe losing it a bit.

This is not a friendly thing to do to people who have been using it for a long time. It was useful to check on crops etc without navigating to each farm. This should be a relief to the volume of activities that slows things down.
Worse than that is that I could not use the feature today and I have 28 farms and 23 are 34x34 or larger. It is Broken. from a long term user who feels that FT is maybe losing it a bit.

Hi STeve,
There wasn't a release today of anything. This problem has been popping up recently, but is easily fixed by closing your farms and reopening them. If that doesn't fix it then please try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close it and your farm. Reopen and try again.

Thanks for the saguaro cacti - been wanting them for a long time. :):p:)

The problem has resolved itself, without intervention on my part other than closing and reopening the app.

I need to retract my comment about FT losing it.

As usual your responses are very helpful.

Thanks,

Steve

Love the saguaro cacti - I've wanted them for ages - and thank you, but why on earth are they in the "Farm Decor" section of the store rather than with the trees? I think you should move them.

They are most likely in decor because they are neither chopped nor shaken for anything.

Don't know where to post this.
A friend of mine has 2 farms. He makes one of them private for decorating. It stays private until he logs out. When he logs back in, that farm is no longer private.
I have no answer for him as my Private farms remain Private until I open them.
thanks in advance!
And, nice update! Thanks!

Hi Barbs,
Have him try clicking the Save after setting it to private and then closing farms and reopen to see.
The only other thing I can think of is clear his memcache before he tries.

HelloTaz: Not sure if this is the right place.
It seems that the new * collard greens * do not compute when harvested. They are all showing up at the top of the "stored amount" list after I harvest. Not sure if this just happens to me.
Thanks you in advance for all your work and assistance.

Hi Starbound,
It will stay at the top of the list as long as it is the smallest amount of crops. You only have 3151 total versus the rest of the crops you have in storage. The stored amount is organized to show you what crops you have the from smallest amount down to largest amount.

There are other trees, bushes and plants in the "Trees" section that are neither shaken nor chopped, but merely for decoration, including: cherry blossom tree, azalea bush, autumn and dead trees, several ferns and bushes, Tuscan cypresses, saw palmettos, and so on. So it would not be inappropriate to have the saguaros in this section also, and would be a better fit. I think that this kind of inconsistency in the store can make it difficult to find things.

I agree that they could more appropriately be in the trees section but I would guess the developers are "city boys" and unfamiliar with cacti. The game has grown so large that many items are now in unusual categories that no longer are the best fit.

After a few months, isn't it time to change the message or at least correct the grammar and poor wording?

They recommend we learn the secrets of time travel and use Chrome to do it! :p

This is what Raul posted: "- The release of the Neighborhood Chains Contest got delayed, we estimate we will release it as part of the next update next Wednesday."

I read this to say that there is going to be an update released Wednesday and the Chains Contest is estimated to be part of it.

HI Ellen and Dulcina,
You know as much as we do. There may be a problem with it or they may be making changes to it, but for now it is disabled. I am sure we will know more when they do the next release.
