New Release -- December 17th, 2019
 
See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last changes released on January 3rd, 1:40AM.

Hi There,

We just released a new update with the following features and bug fixes: En Espaņol AQUI

1. 50 x 50 farm expansion for Farms 1 to 10: Please note that these expansions are for the *original farms* 1 to 10. If you have moved your farms around using the Farm Selector Manager then you will need to find your original farms from 1 to 10 to expand them. You cannot expand a farm just because it is sitting in one of those locations in your Farm Selector.

2. Seeder Ex 10 x 10 (FC): Plant up to 1600 *overlapped* fields at once in a squared area the size of 10 x 10 plow fields.

3. Combine Harvest-Plant Ex 10 x 10 (FC): Harvest, Plow and Plant up to 1600 *overlapped* fields at once in a squared area the size of 10 x 10 plow fields.

4. Belts and Dans for the next 10 Facilities: Dutch Restaurant, Railroad Supplies Factory, Fish Cannery, Billiard Supplies Factory, Special Needs Supplies Factory, Malaysian Restaurant, Food Art Caterer, Iranian Restaurant, New Zealand Restaurant and Lamp Factory.

5. Usage Bar indicator in Storage Screen: This indicates how full your harvest and product storage is.

6. Facility Usage Bar indicator in 'Show Facility Info' Screen: In the 'Show Names' screen, if you click the 'Show Facility Info' button, under each Farm Name you will also see a bar indicating how full of facilities that farm is and how much empty room remains.

7. New crop options added to the Super Naighbour Manager Screen: Added options for 'None', 2 Hour, 4 Hour, 8 Hour, 12 Hour, 1 Day, 2 Day, 3 Day, 4 Day, 5 Day and 6 Day crops. These will provide you with more control on what type of crops your Super Neighbours can plant on your farms.

8. Other Bug Fixes:

a) BugFix: Sometimes a ship would return empty immediately after being dispatched
b) BugFix: Sometimes certain ports could not be replaced in the ships itinerary
c) BugFix: Sometimes a Super Neighbour was not able to see the exact crop in the store to plant on a farm
d) BugFix: Sometimes impossible label colors were shown in the markets, ex: red labels in the trade market or green labels in the job market

9. Other Improvements released in the past 2-3 weeks:

a) When navigating Cooperative Quests completed quests are automatically hidden
b) At the markets, you can now open the Cooperative Quests screen for any farmer even when that farmer has no Cooperative Quests
c) BugFix: Incorrect avatar pictures sometimes shown in the Markets, Neighbours Bar and Trading Warehouses
d) BugFix: Incorrect scores sometimes shown in the Trophy screen

10. Gutter Supplies Factory (Coins): Produces Gutter Supplies.

Gutter w/ Downpipe
Gutter Bracket
Gutter Slip Joint
Gutter Guard
Rain Chain
Splash Block
Gutter Scoop
Gutter Cleaning Attachment

11. Nail Salon Supplies Factory (FC): Produces Nail Salon Supplies.

Cuticle Pusher
Nail Nipper
Acrylic Nails
Toe Separator
Pedicure Bowl
Foot File
Nail Cleaning Brush
Nail Drill

12. Gutter Repair Services (Coins): Provides Gutter Repair Services and can be stocked with products from the Gutter Supplies Factory.

ty for the new tools and land upgrades, :) oh and discover the percentage showing how much I have in storage... I think I may have to sell off a heap, gulp... was at 93%.. exported some and it dropped to 91%.. so waiting to see if we get new facilities before selling off all non usable ingredients.. lol

Taz D Dec 17 2019 07:38 PM

From Tiger's post closing the previous release thread:




This is what we have noticed we have so far:
  • 10x10 EX Seeder
  • 10x10 EX HPP
  • New belts for products in some facilities.
  • 50x50 Land Upgrades for Farms 1 to 10 in their ORIGINAL Order.
  • More Options in the Super Neighbour Manager for you to set "Any crop by growth time" Example: Any 1 hour crop, Any 2 hour crop, Any 1 Day crop and so on, instead of just specific crop.
  • Storage Capacity bar top left of your Harvests & Products section of Storage.
    No new facilities yet.

1wolfie1 Dec 17 2019 08:05 PM

here is what is difficult for mee......
I try very hard to manage my Belt Dans because all that is allow for Bonus Claims is 5 per period...

I cycled thru the newer Facilities and got those unchecked until I can bring them along in a manageable manner...

...but I have like 1500 Facilities, and I have no clue if any Bonus Products were added to older Facilities...

...what that means is I can't really use all my fancy Loaders that I paid big FarmTown Cash for if I want to manage the Bonuses sensibly...

...I know I know...the Developers are unwilling to provide any minimum guidance regarding the upgrades when they happen...

...makes it hard for us who try to take an intellectual approach to manage the limited resources we are able to put together...

...jes sayin...

Hi wolfie,
We won't know exactly what belt bonuses were added until Raul posts what facilities they were for. They would however be for facilities that have not previously had any belt bonuses. If you want to narrow it down and check through them it will probably be for those facilities recently added in the past few months. They should now show a belt symbol in each of the product boxes within those facilities. Service facilities do not have belts so that narrows it down more.

L.A.Bob Dec 17 2019 08:35 PM

Thanks Raul and Team. Christmas came a week early.

mareface Dec 17 2019 08:48 PM

Great for new tools. Just unfortunate that the land upgrades do not allow additional oil pumps. Have not been able to keep up with crude since lot 40 came out. The additional land will just make it harder as more will be needed. Crude is the only area that does not have multiple ways to accumulate it like with the super facilities. Hard to justify the expense if one cannot keep up with it now. Anyway, Happy Holidays!!

Hi mareface,
If you want to make a suggestion please post it in the Suggestions section where we organize them by subject for the developers to review. Please keep this thread to only posts about the current released items.

Hi cocosfarm,
Please try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close that as it is done.
If your farm is open close it. Then reopen and check again.

When assigning 'cucumber' to be planted, your super neighbor will also see 1 day crops along with the cucumber planting options.

Hi Moose Mob,

Dulcinea Dec 19 2019 04:46 PM

Thanks for the update. One question, though, regarding #5 "Usage Bar indicator in Storage Screen." My capacity usage is showing at 66%, but sixty-six percent of what? What defines 100% capacity?

Hi Dulcinea,
We have no way of telling you what your maximum total is because there are too many variables to calculating the total.

Clohar Dec 19 2019 05:30 PM

6. Facility Usage Bar indicator in 'Show Facility Info' Screen: In the 'Show Names' screen, if you click the 'Show Facility Info' button, under each Farm Name you will also see a bar indicating how full of facilities that farm is and how much empty room remains. What do I have to do to see that. I Can't find the way

Hi Clohar,
Exactly what it say. Click on Show Names of the Farm Selector. Then click on Show Facility Info. The bar is in blue on the bottom edge of each farm's breakdown of the types of facilities on it.

Okay thanks, Taz. I played other games that have storage limits, and it's usually a set amount. Considering I have a lot less than my neighbors, I figure it must be pretty low if I was at 66%.
