Facilities and Facility Manager
This thread is for reporting problems concerning facilities and the Facility Manager. Please read the following information BEFORE posting in this thread. Most posting using the Website does not post to Facebook! UPDATE: Sept 29th 2023 - You can now post your facility work requests to Facebook. Remember - not every farmer you have as a Neighbour/Buddy may have a Facebook account to be able to see the posts on Facebook or they may not be your Facebook Friends. Please make sure that you have read the information in the Web Guide to see what differences there are now that you are playing Farm Town on the Website! Thank you! Check Out The Game Guide: Chapter 13 - Facilities Everything you need to know about facilities and using the Facility Manager is included here. For the full list of Non-Workable Facilities go to Chapter 13: What are the Non-Workable Facilities? Most posting does not post to Facebook box anymore! The exception to this is that you can post your Facility work request to Facebook if you wish. Posting to Facebook is governed by Facebook rules.The facilities/tools that you fill with coins rather than product, ie: the semi trailer truck, the bee farm, can not be used to post facility work. Religious and Funeral Facilities can not be used to post facility work. Can I Have More Than One Of The Same Facility?
Is there a Limit on how many Facilities I can put on a farm? Yes. It's the limit is between 350 and 400. However, that amount can also be affected by how much production you have in those facilities that have not been stored. If you see a message telling you that you have too many facilities on a farm, the first thing we suggest is to store all production from those facilities then refresh farm and see if the message goes away. If it does then do not add any more facilities to that farm and remember to store regularly. If it comes back, store all production and move some facilities to another farm.Working Neighbour and Buddies Facilities: This is to explain the time between working a neighbours facilities before you can rework that same neighbor's post again. To simplify the answer it was originally stated that you had to wait a day. Notice that if you spend at least 8 straight hours in a day without playing farmtown (when you sleep, eat breakfast, etc, most people will fall in this category) then you will in fact be able to work your friends facilities at least once per day. Example: IF at Noon/Midday you stop working ALL friends facilities and take a minimum 8 hour break where you do NOT work any facilities at all for any of your friends.

My Cindy Farmington account has 5 Fodder Factories that are not producing Copra. When I get sent ingredients I just get more coconuts. All other products seem to work. I had this problem with Copra a couple of years ago, but I don't know what was done to correct it.

Quote:
If your fodder facilities are not producing the Copra Meal, then open one of the facilities and make sure there is a check in the box for that product. Also make sure you have enough coconut to fill all the facilities you have that use that. If you want us to check that account you will need to give us the account ID as we do not have any way to search by avatar name. |
Facility Manager
All I can get to in my Facility Manager is the Post Office.

Hello, in the facility manager I had selected the "Workable by friends" query and yet the dairy shed and the chicken coop were visible. Maybe someone should have a look at it? Thanks in advance for any help or advice. |

You have to uncheck Animal buildings so they dont show up. |

I discovered yesterday that I have no sheep's wool. I usually don't go looking until something runs short. Today I could harvest those barns, but still, in my storage, wool is not listed. If I scroll down my list of facilities in my facility manager until I find one that needs wool, it tells me that I have plenty available (can't remember the number), but I can't load wool. I looked again in my storage and it's not listed at all. Kinda odd. Here's the numbers: My textile mill tells me I should have 676 wool in my storage, but there's no listing at all in my storage. I should have more than that - I haven't run out of wool in YEARS.
|
Quote:
I had a look at your data and you indeed only have 676 sheep wool stored. I also checked how many Wool sheds you have and you only own 3, the ones on farms 34 and 35 have sheep but the one on farm 36 only has Llamas. You have all the factories using sheep wool, and the total amount of sheep you have (2000) is not enough to all of them. You will need to add more sheep and more wool sheds. Open your storage, click in Harvest Products button. Set the filter to Animal products and the A/Z filter to Alphabetically and check if you can find your sheep wool. |
My Facility Manager says I have two 'Nut Shops". Neither "Nut Shop" will let me load the "Fruity Nuts" from the "Roasted Nut Factory".
ID in "signature". |
Quote:
If they are full with pending products then it won't let you start one. They only take an hour for a batch to finish so you should be able to add one soon. EDIT: You do not have any of the Fruity Nuts in your storage. |
Quote:
Yes right after I saw where you answered me the game let me load the fruity nuts into the fruit and nut shop. Guess I'm just impatient :):o |
Factories and tools gone
All my factories have disappeared from the factory manager. I have the service facilities but none of my working facilities. I can click on them on my farm but that is a lot of work to fill them all. Is this one of the bugs that they're working on? My user ID is: 1512038608
Thanks, Diane |

working facilities
I am noticing more frequently that when I am working facilities it does a few of refer clients then for rest tells me opps already done those today. I did some on a friends farm today for whom I haven't worked for over a month and it told me already done today... this is happening a lot now... it seems the working on factories is fine it is the refer clients this happens on.

I moved your post to the thread about facilities. It is very strange you got those messages working for a friend you hadnt worked for a month. The only times I get the oops messages for facilities or services is when friends refill them and if I try to work them again, then I get the messages for the ones I already worked but get products for the ones which were empty the first time I tried them. Not sure if this will help you but please clear your memcache, link below. A new window will open with a short list of unsettings. Close that windows and your farm if it is open in another tab. Then reopen your farms. https://apps.facebook.com/farmtown/p...lear_memcached |
Mutliple facilities
I have been moving some facilities around and I noticed that If i have a few of the same facilities in storage and go to place them, it wont stop me from putting more than one of a particular factories on the same farm. Are we going to be able to have multiple factories of 1 kind on the same farm?
|
Quote:
I moved your post to the subject thread about facilities. No you will not be able to have multiples of the same facility on a farm. If you do place more than one of a facility on a farm then the additional facilities will only be decorations and will not produce any products. Even in Flash it did not stop you from placing more that one of a facility on a farm. |
I have the quest to do macaroni-beef veggies in a facility. When I go to the semi truck to start the meat it says delivers in 30 minutes. When I go back to the quest it takes an hour. I only need one meet. Why does it double the time?
|
Quote:
It's always been the same in Quests for semi trailer products, it did this in flash as well. The step initially recognizes you own the ordering station that brings the products in quicker for the semi, but then reverts to the original time of 1 hour. |
HELP~~ How do I find which of my many farms has a specific facility? I apparently need to manually start products.
The facility manager is not allowing me to start any production of any facility; however it does not even show this specific facility. And, yet...when I go to store to see about buying it, the store says I alread own one. Specifically, I need to produce product in the Irish Cafe to finish a quest. Do I have the Irish restaurant or not? There fore, how can I find it if I do have it. I do NOT want to buy a secon one if I already have one as the store says I do. Any help would be appreciated, especially before I lose my quest. |

It is sounding like you don't have your Facility Manger set to show all facilities on all farms, you may have changed some of the filters which is why it may not be showing up in there. http://r1.slashkey.com/images/gamegu...unnel icon.PNGPlease open your Facility Manager and then click on the Funnel icon and set ALL the filters like this: http://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/FM ALL.PNG If you make any changes, please remember to click in the green check mark to save them, then see if you can see your Irish Restaurant. For speed your Irish Restaurant is on your farm called Beyond Sanity, so if you still can't see the facility in the FM you can go to that farm and start a single batch of the quest step you need from the facility itself. If you already have the filters in the FM set like shown above and still can't see the Irish restaurant, let us know and we have another instruction you can try to resolve that. |
Looks like that did the trick, many thanks.

CASH OUT ALL no longer working
Beginning 5/20/21 the Cash Out All button in the facility manager is no longer correctly calculating coins. I typically get more than 2 billion dollars each time a farmer works my factories and services and make 12-25 billion a day. Now, even after 10-15 people worked my facilities I ended up with only a few hundred million. Prior to yesterday, the feature was working fine.
|
Quote:
I moved your post to the subject thread about the facility manager. The Cashout is working correctly. If it wasn't then you would get no coins at all. After you cash out go through and check your service facilities and see if they still have a lot of completed batches. I think you will find that they do not and have been cashed out. Maybe not as many neighbors or friends are working them now. From what I see in your data is that you cash out several times a day and most are in the millions, not billions. |
All my Facilities are not all displayed under Facility Manager
#1250460682
I've noticed this morning that a few of my Facilities were not listed under Facility Manager. Specifically, I was looking for the location of my Food Preserve Factory as well as my Spice Factory. They weren't listed when I pulled up Facility Manager so I had to go to each of my farms and found them that way (eg, Food Preserve Factory on Farm 9; Spice Factory on Farm 3). How can I be sure to have all facilities previously purchased listed under Facility Manager going forward? Thank you. |

Facility Manager adds not the correct amount of XP
1 Attachment(s)
The Facility Manager adds less than the displayed number of XP to the total sum of XP
Example: Air Fresheners Factory. XP Total before the start : 61024497. Display after klickeing the 'start all' button: + 990 XP Expectet value after starting: 61025487 Total XP Points after the task: 61025193. Coclusion: 294 points less than it should be. Restart of the game has no effect, XP points are still 61025193. This happens with all facilities I checked. Please check an fix the problem. Many thanks in advance Frankie |

I have moved your post to the help and support thread about facilities. When you start products in facilities, the XP amount you see is what you would have got for all of the batches, BUT what happens next is that you get bonus batches back for filling them. The ingredients for those bonus batches are returned to you by the mayor so then the game deducts the XP for those bonus batches which is why you end up with less XP than you initially saw. |
Store all/Cash Out all
Since the migration, my store all/cash out all have not worked properly. Before the migration, one click on these stored everything in all farms or cashed out all farms, now I have to go to several farms to perform this function. Is this a bug or am I missing something?

MaryMarcel, before the migration to HTML5, we could "Store All" and "Cash
Out All" by clicking those buttons without needing to have check marks in the boxes to display all Regular and all Service facilities. In the new version of the game, clicking to store or cash out all results in a pop-up message that says "The "Store All" operation has no effect on any of the facilities that you have in your farms." Ditto for the "Cash Out All" operation (same message). I used to keep check marks in the boxes for showing Animal Buildings only.. because those are the ones I use every day. In the new version, I have to keep all three kinds of buildings "checked" in my Facility Manager... and the order "Production Chain" in order to be able to see ONLY the animal buildings at the top of the list for daily harvesting, while still being able to store all and cash out all Regular and Service facilities whenever I want to. The alternative is to keep checking and un-checking the boxes for Regular and Service facilities whenever I want to Store All or Cash Out All in the Facility Manager. I hope this makes sense? I can do screenshots if it will help. |

As far as I remember, the funnel gives you the option to decide what to fill/load and what to store/cash out. You need to have an option checked in Facility Type for Regular Facilities and for Service Facilities. If you dont have any check mark for any of the options, then you cant store or cash out as no facilities are showed up in the Facility manager screen. For example if you only wanted to start or store all products from Non workable facilities by friends, you have to change the option from All to Non workable by friends in the Regular Facilities. That way you only start or store products from mines, bee farms, fish farming plants, banks, semi, oil pumps, etc without starting or storing products from other regular facilities. You can have the setting for Production chain and also have Animal buildings unchecked and the animal sheds are harvested without problems by clicking in Harvest all above the Facility Manager. |
That is not how it worked in the Flash version of the game. The buttons to Store All and Cash Out All worked independently of what facilities or buildings you were displaying in the Facility Manager. I always displayed ONLY my Animal Buldings, but was always able to store and cash out everything, every time I clicked one of those buttons. Surely the developers know about this change?
