Chapter 21 - Tools
 
There are many tools you can buy to help you do things faster in Farm Town. This Chapter has posts which gives you details about each type of tool. All the links below are clickable and will take you to the post about those tools.

Some of these tools when used will also show an Eye bottom right of your game which you can use to hide items on the farm. So if something doesn't show that you think should be, check the eye setting.

Note: The more realistic eyes are have been updated to the red and black versions we had previously:

Click on the Eye to change the setting.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...D OCT 2020.PNG When the Eye is BLACK you still see everything on your farms.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...N OCT 2020.PNGWhen the eye is RED, you will only see the items the harvest tool can harvest, like fields, trees and flowers. Clicking on an item with the harvest tool will harvest the item then make it temporarily disappear from view, which can be easier for you when you have more items on the farm. When using the Herding Robot it will hide everything except the animals.

More details about the eye when using Full Screen mode are in Chapter 2 Basics What is the Eye for? - the Full Screen additional features listed in that post are not in the current version of the game yet.


Should you need to get back to this post to look for other information:
Each post has a Table of Contents link bottom right of the post, which when you click, will bring you right back here.

Can I use a too to Harvest Crops?
 
Q: Can I use a tool to Harvest crops?

A: Yes, there are several size tools that you can use to harvest. The 2x2 tools and above use fuel.
You must buy them in size order.
You must make sure that you place them into your Item Storage so that the game can see which ones you own AND for you to be able to use the bigger tools when working for others or when they work for you.

These tools are not for working overlapped crops faster AND Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers BUT you must own all the sizes up to and including the 16x16 before you can buy your first EX Harvester to be able to plant overlapped fields faster.

For full details on ALL the crop tools tools that can work overlapped crops faster click on this link:
Are there tools for working overlapped fields?
  • You can harvest a single field at a time with your harvesting tool (the scythe).
  • You can harvest 2 fields at a time with the 2x1 harvester.
  • You can harvest 4 fields at a time with the 2x2 harvester.
  • You can harvest 9 fields at a time with the 3x3 harvester
  • You can harvest 16 fields at a time with the 4x4 harvester (FC item).
  • You can harvest 25 fields at a time with the 5x5 harvester (FC item).
  • You can harvest 36 fields at a time with the 6x6 harvester (FC item).
  • You can harvest 64 fields at a time with the 8x8 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 100 fields at a time with the 10x10 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 144 fields at a time with the 12x12 harvesterer (FC item)
  • You can harvest 196 fields at a time with the 14x14 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 256 fields at a time with the 16x16 harvester (FC item)

    When you own the 16x16 you meet the requirement to buy your first EX Harvester.

    If you are not overlapping crops you can continue buying the bigger size tools:

  • You can harvest 324 fields at a time with the 18x18 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 400 fields at a time with the 20x20 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 484 fields at a time with the 22x22 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 576 fields at a time with the 24x24 harvester (FC item)
  • You can harvest 784 fields at a time with the 28x28 harvester (FC item)


    When you buy a bigger size tool you will see a popup telling you what you are about to buy, please make sure that you read it and especially note the name and size of the tool before you purchase.

    If you do not have Show Tools checked in your Show Preferences that will also be shown in the popup.

    If you are buying a tool bigger than the 16x16 there is another popup that will remind you that the tool is not an EX tool for working overlapped crops.
    Example:

    https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...PPED CROPS.png


To use tools bigger than the Scythe to harvest, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Harvest" and then click on the fields.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

Can I use a tool to Plow new or wasted Fields?
 
Q: Can I use a tool to Plow new or wasted Fields?

A: Yes, there are several tools that you can use to plow. These do not use any fuel.
These tools can be used to plow new fields on your own farm, plow harvested fields and plow wasted crops.
They must be bought in size order.
You must make sure that you place them into your Item Storage so that the game can see which ones you own AND for you to be able to use the bigger tools when working for others or when they work for you.

NOTE: On your own farms or when working as a Super Neighbour with design permissions that allow plowing of new fields AND you have other items showing in your preferences, when you pick up a plow tool the other items showing will not hide, as the game does not know if your intention is to plow harvested fields or plow new fields. For plowing new fields you need to be able to see where your other items are in order to plow in an area that doesn't already have something occupying that space. If you cannot see where you need to plow you will have to hide the other items in your preferences.

  • You can plow a single field at a time
  • You can plow 2 fields at a time with the 2x1 plower
  • You can plow 4 fields at a time with the 2x2 plower..
  • You can plow 9 fields at a time with the 3x3 plower.
  • You can plow 16 fields at a time with the 4x4 plower.(FC item).
  • You can plow 25 fields at a time with the 5x5 plower (FC item).
  • You can plow 36 fields at a time with the 6x6 plower (FC item).
  • You can plow 64 fields at a time with the 8x8 plower (FC item).
  • You can plow 100 fields at a time with the 10x10 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 144 fields at a time with the 12x12 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 196 fields at a time with the 14x14 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 256 fields at a time with the 16x16 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 324 fields at a time with the 18x18 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 400 fields at a time with the 20x20 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 484 fields at a time with the 22x22 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 576 fields at a time with the 24x24 plower (FC item)
  • You can plow 784 fields at a time with the 28x28 plower (FC item)

Note: Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers. Doing this CAN cause problems with your farms that may NOT be able to be fixed. They have not provided plow tools to create these overlapped fields and for the same reason you will not find instructions on how to create them on the forum.

To use tools bigger than the single plow tool, to plow fields, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If your tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Plow" and then click on the fields.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

As of April 2020 it is much easier to use bigger plow tools to plow a farm without having to change to a smaller plow tool. This is very useful when plowing new fields along the bottom edge of the farm when you upgrade it to a bigger size.

The plow tools will now overhang the bottom edges of the farm allowing you to plow a narrow but long strip without switching to a smaller tool.

In the example below:
  • The top picture is the old method where you had to get the right size tool to plow along the edge as the tool had to fit within the farm, so that method you could only plow 4 fields at a time using the 4x4 plow tool.

  • The bottom picture shows the new overhang method, using the 10x10 plow tool, where everything within the farm area and the green box, will be plowed, which in this case would be 18 fields.

How do I plant Seeds?

You can seed a single field (no tool required) by clicking the store icon in the game panel, then scroll the list to find the seed you want then click on "Buy".

To use your tool to seed, it must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Plant Seeds", the store will open, chose your seed and then click on the fields.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use, the store will open so you can choose your seed, then click on the fields.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

What are the Combines?
 
Q. What are the Combines?

A. There are TWO types of Combines and they come in several sizes. They all cost Farm Cash. These tools use Fuel.


Combine Harvest-Plow tools will harvest crops and plow fields with each click of the tool. It uses fuel for Harvesting not for the Plowing.

Combine Harvest-Plant tools will harvest crops, plow fields and plant new seeds with each click of the tool. It uses fuel for the Harvesting and Seeding not for the Plowing.



These tools are not for working overlapped crops faster AND Overlapping fields is still not officially supported by the developers BUT you must own all the sizes up to and including the 16x16 before you can buy your first EX Combine-Plow or EX Combine Harvest-Plant to be able to work overlapped fields faster.

For full details on ALL the crop tools tools that can work overlapped crops faster click on this link:
Are there tools for working overlapped fields?


For the tool to be able to get the maximum amount of fields per click your fields must be plowed close together and in line with each other. If the fields are offset the tool either won't be able to get them all or will try to grab an odd pattern.


To buy the Combine Harvest-Plow, you must own the relevant size Harvester and Plower before you can buy the same size Combine Harvest-Plow.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (5x5) will harvest and plow up to 25 fields in a squared 5x5 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (6x6) will harvest and plow up to 36 fields in a squared 6x6 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (8x8) will harvest and plow up to 64 fields in a squared 8x8 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (10x10) will harvest and plow up to 100 fields in a squared 10x10 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (12x12) will harvest and plow up to 144 fields in a squared 12x12 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (14x14) will harvest and plow up to 196 fields in a squared 14x14 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (16x16) will harvest and plow up to 256 fields in a squared 16x16 area.

    When you own the Combine Harvest-Plow 16x16 you meet the requirement to buy your first EX Combine Harvest-Plow.

    If you are not overlapping crops you can continue buying the bigger size tools:

  • Combine Harvest-Plow (18x18) will harvest and plow up to 324 fields in a squared 18x18 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (20x20) will harvest and plow up to 400 fields in a squared 20x20 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (22x22) will harvest and plow up to 484 fields in a squared 22x22 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (24x24) will harvest and plow up to 576 fields in a squared 24x24 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plow (28x28) will harvest and plow up to 784 fields in a squared 28x28 area.


To buy the Combine Harvest-Plant, you must own the same size Combine Harvest-Plow AND the same size Seeder before you can buy the Combine Harvest-Plant.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (5x5) will harvest, plow and plant up to 25 fields in a squared 5x5 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (6x6) will harvest, plow and plant up to 36 fields in a squared 6x6 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (8x8) will harvest, plow and plant up to 64 fields in a squared 8x8 area.

  • Combine Harvest-Plant (14x14) will harvest, plow and plant up to 196 fields in a squared 14x14 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (16x16) will harvest, plow and plant up to 256 fields in a squared 16x16 area.

    When you own the Combine Harvest-Plow 16x16 you meet the requirement to buy your first EX Combine Harvest-Plant.

    If you are not overlapping crops you can continue buying the bigger size tools:

  • Combine Harvest-Plant (18x18) will harvest, plow and plant up to 324 fields in a squared 18x18 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (20x20) will harvest, plow and plant up to 400 fields in a squared 20x20 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (22x22) will harvest, plow and plant up to 484 fields in a squared 22x22 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (24x24) will harvest, plow and plant up to 576 fields in a squared 24x24 area.
  • Combine Harvest-Plant (28x28) will harvest, plow and plant up to 784 fields in a squared 28x28 area.


When you buy a bigger size tool you will see a popup telling you what you are about to buy, please make sure that you read it and especially note the name and size of the tool before you purchase.
If you do not have Show Tools checked in your Show Preferences that will also be shown in the popup.

Can I use my tool on other farmers' farms?
 
Q: Can I use my tools on other farmers' farms?

A: You can use both 3x3 coin tools and Farm Cash tools to work on crops, trees, flowers and fish on other farms as long as you have placed those tools into your Item storage.

There are some other tools, like the mobile sprinkler and some of the freestlyle hand designers, that you can also use, in some circumstances, on other peoples farms, but some you can not. The details for those are in each individual post for those tools later in this chapter. A quick way to know if you can use a tool when on someones farm is to look in the toolbox. If a tool is greyed out in the toolbox then you don't have access to that tool to use.

You will be able to use the tools owned by your employer if they have allowed it. If the tools use fuel you will need to have fuel to use them unless the farm owner has allowed the use of their own fuel. If the farm owner has allowed the use of their tools and fuel you will see the information is in the hiring popup when you are offered a job. However it does not tell you if you will be using their fuel first or last, it could be either.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...s and fuel.PNG

Both your tools and the farm owners tools can be found by opening the toolbox. Tools that are greyed out, you don't have access to.

When hired for a single job the tool you can use will be automatically given to you and will also appear in the game panel in place of the store & gift icons.

If hired multiple, the correct tools will be automatically given to you for each job or can be accessed via the yellow toolbox.

For all options on Hiring and Fuel allowance see How do I hire someone to work on my farm(s)?

NOTE: If the farm owner has allowed the use of their fuel you may not get to use theirs first depending on what they set the fuel allowance to. They have 3 options for fuel allowance

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...el options.png

Also if they run out of fuel you will need to use your own fuel to continue working with out having to drop to using the x1 and x2 tools.

My tools don't work anymore, help!
 
My tools don't work anymore, help!

There are a few things that can make a machine not work properly.

The most common thing is that it won't plow/plant/harvest in blocks any more.

Go to preferences located top right of your game screen. The icon looks like a wrench/spanner https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/preferences.jpg:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...nces hover.jpg

Make sure 'remove space between fields' is checked if you have no gaps. (If you do have gaps on your farm, make sure "remove space between fields' is unchecked).

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...move space.png


Also make sure you have enough fuel. Check your fuel indicator located top left of your game screen. This image shows 3,264,945 Fuel.

Can i move my tools to one of my other farms?
 
Q: Can i move my tools to one of my other farms?

A: Yes, Just put it in storage. Then go to the farm you would like the tool on, and take it out of storage and place it on the farm. You must have a clear space, slightly bigger than the tool, with nothing else occupying that space, to be able to get it out of storage.

However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use. This means you only need 1 of each tool.

What can i do with an Oil Pump?
 
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...p APR 2019.PNG

Q: What can i do with an Oil Pump?

A: The Oil Pump is a coin facility, it allows you to produce Crude Oil Barrels for use in the Oil Refinery. The Oil Refinery is used to make Fuel Tanks for use with your tools, as well as other products used in other facilites. You can only have 1 working oil pump per farm. To start the oil pump, open it up like any other facility, and click "Start Batch". It costs coins to start each batch.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg... icon 2019.PNG As of August 2020 this is now classified as a facility, so will now show up on your farms when Show Facilities is check marked in your game preferences instead of Show Tools.


Should you need to produce more crude oil than this facility can produce you can by the Offshore Oil Rig for Farm Cash which will produce 3 times more crude oil than the oil pump.

Both of these Facilities are listed in Chapter 13 What are the Non-Workable Facilities? and this post will eventually be removed from this Chapter as the oil pump is no longer a tool.

What is the Fishing Boat?
 
Q: What is the Fishing Boat?
A: The Fishing Boats are used to make it easier to fish. These tools use fuel.


These Fishing Boats do NOT have Extent Mode they only have Highlight Mode:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...T AUG 2023.png

These Turbo Boats have BOTH Highlight Mode and Extent Mode:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...T FEB 2024.png

Important note about overlapped waters and Fishing!!!!
Some farmers will have overlapped waters on and off the edges of their farms. If you have them on your own farms or are hired to work them, you will need to own the Turbo Fishing boat in order to be able to catch every single fish in those waters. Hired workers can use the farm owners turbo boat as long as the boat they have allowed the use of their Tools in the hire. You will also need Fuel.


The Fishing Boat (2x2) allows you to catch up to 4 fish each time you click.
** The Fishing Boat (2x2) can NOT be used on other farms when hired **

The Fishing Boat (3x3) allows you to catch up to 9 fish each time you click.

The Fishing Boat (5x5) allows you to catch up to 25 fish each time you click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat allows you to fish each body of water with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (4x4) allows you to fish up to 16 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 1 plowed field with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (8x8) allows you to fish up to 64 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 4 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (12x12) allows you to fish up to 144 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 9 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (16x16) allows you to fish up to 256 overlapped waters in a squared area the size of 16 plowed fields with a single click.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (20x20) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 25 plow fields (5x5 area) using a new method of fishing.
When selecting the new Turbo Boat 20x20 instead of the Eye in the bottom right you will see the current tool icon >>

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...oat select.png

When you click on that icon, you will see a vertical toolbar with 3 buttons.
The one in the top (Highlight) selects the old method of highlighting each individual item.
The one in the middle selects the New Method (Extent) of highlighting only the perimeter of the area where the tool will operate. Instead of highlighting all waters, this new method will just highlight a fixed squared section of the farm which works faster and with less manual mistakes. When you use this method you will briefly see "Extent mode selected" in white lettering near the top of the game screen.
The bottom button closes the box.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...st options.png

Also, the tool will always operate as if the Eye was closed, meaning, the recently worked items will be hidden once the work on them is completed..
The Turbo Fishing Boat (24x24) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 36 plow fields (6x6 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (28x28) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 49 plow fields (7x7 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (32x32) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 64 plow fields (8x8 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (36x36) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 81 plow fields (9x9 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (40x40) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 100 plow fields (10x10 aera)and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (44x44) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 121 plow fields (11x11 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

The Turbo Fishing Boat (48x48) - allows you to catch all fish in a squared area the size of 144 plow fields (12x12 area) and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.



To use tools bigger than the Fishing Rod to fish, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Fish" and then click on the waters.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...od toolbox.PNG You can also use the fishing rod to fish 1 at a time if you don't own the tools. To select the fishing rod, click on the Yellow Toolbox and select the tool.

What do the Semi-Trailer Truck and Turbo Electric Semi Truck bring?
 
Q: What do the Semi-Trailer Truck and Turbo Electric Semi Truck bring?

There are 2 Semi Trailer trucks in the Tools section of the Store that will bring you products needed for facilities. The Semi-Trailer truck uses Fuel as well as coins to bring products. 5 fuel per batch.
The Turbo Electric Semi Truck brings products 3 times faster, will still cost coins to order products, but does not use Fuel.

Both of these tools can be placed on the same farm as each other and both of them bring you products. You can only have one of each on a farm. You do not have to buy the Semi-Trailer Truck before you can buy the Turbo Electric Semi Truck.

To access either semi, click on it, and select "Show Truck Details"
Or you can find them in the Facility Manger. They are both classified as Tools, to see them on your farms you need to have Show Tools check marked in your game preferences.
In the Facility Manger, it is listed under Non-Workable By Friends.

What is the Tree Shaker?
 
Q: What is the Tree Shaker?

A: There are 15 Tree Shakers, they are used to speed up the harvesting of trees. These tools use Fuel and can be used on other farms when hired.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L NOV 2023.png



Tree Shaker (3x3) - You MUST use the 3x3 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 9 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (8x4) - You MUST use the 8x4 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 32 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (8x8) - You MUST use the 8x8 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 64 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (12x8) - You MUST use the 12x8 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 96 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (12x12) - You MUST use the 12x12 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 144 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (12x16) - You MUST use the 12x16 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 192 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (16x16) - You MUST use the 16x16 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 256 trees in 1 click.

Tree Shaker (20x20) - This tree shaker will harvest up to 400 trees.
When selecting the new 20x20 Tree Shaker instead of the Eye in the bottom right you will see the current tool icon.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...ree shaker.png

When you click on that icon, you will see a vertical toolbar with 3 buttons.
The one in the top (Highlight) selects the old method of highlighting each individual item.
The one in the middle selects the New Method (Extent) of highlighting only the perimeter of the area where the tool will operate. Instead of highlighting all the trees, this new method will just highlight a fixed squared section of the farm which works faster and with less manual mistakes. When you use this method you will briefly see "Extent mode selected" in white lettering near the top of the game screen.
The bottom button closes the box.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...st options.png

Also, the tool will always operate as if the Eye was closed, meaning, the recently worked items will be hidden once the work on them is completed..

Tree Shaker (24x24) - This tree shaker will harvest up to 576 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker (28x28) - This tree shaker will harvest up to 784 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker 32x32 - This tree shaker will harvest up to 1024 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker 36x36 - This tree shaker will harvest up to 1296 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker 40x40 - This tree shaker will harvest up to 1600 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker 44x44 - This tree shaker will harvest up to 1936 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Tree Shaker 48x48 - This tree shaker will harvest up to 2304 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.


To use tools bigger than the Sythe (single harvest tool) to harvest trees, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Harvest" and then click on the trees.
  • However, it is far better to place all tools into your Item Storage. You will then be able to access all of your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...he toolbox.PNG You can also use the Sythe (single harvest tool) to harvest trees one at a time, if you don't own the tools. To select the Sythe, click on the Yellow Toolbox and then click on the tool. When you are done click on the green man to stop using it.

What is the Manure Spreader?
 
Q: What is the Manure Spreader?

A: There are 3 manure spreaders, the red one, and the orange one and the green one. These are used to fertilise your farm.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L APR 2019.PNG

Red manure Spreader ONLY fertilizes crops, and will produce 2 boxes of harvest instead of 1.

Orange Manure Spreader takes on the job of the red one, and also fertilizes trees and flowers too giving you 2 boxes of harvest instead of 1,

Green Manure Spreader - This takes on the job of both the red and orange manure spreaders AND allows you to fertilize All farms or a selection of farms with a single click.

NOTE: If you already own the Red Manure Spreader and you buy the Orange Manure Spreader, then every time you fertilize a farm using ANY of them, crops, flowers and trees will be fertilized. Fertilized crops, trees, flowers will produce 2 boxes when harvested and chop trees, 2 log piles when chopped.

When you upgrade to the Orange Manure Spreader ONLY the orange one will show up the yellow tool box, as it will do the job of the red one as well. You MUST own the red one in order to get the orange one.
If you then also upgrade to the Green Manure Spreader, then this is the only one that will show up in the yellow toolbox, it will take on the jobs of both the red and orange manure spreaders.

Notice you only need to fertilize a farm once, with any of the Spreaders, it doesn't matter which. The farm will remain fertilized for 72 hours.

How do I collect manure?
You need to have a Pigsty ( facility section on the store) to collect the manure from your pigs (which are a gift only item). The collection process works the same as if you were harvesting animals, the difference is that in this case, the manure from the pigs is stored in your Manure Spreader tool. Each pig produced 1 Manure Unit every 12 hours. You must own the spreader in order for you to be able to collect the manure from the pigsty.

How do I know how many manure units I have stored? Put the Manure Spreader into your Item Storage. Open the yellow toolbox and mouse over the manure spreader. It will tell you how many units of manure you have. If the farm you are currently on is already fertilised it will also tell you how long it is fertilised for.
Example:
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg... JUNE 2020.png


How do I fertilize?
You need 50 manure units to fertilize a farm. To fertilize a farm, click on the Manure Spreader tool and select 'Fertilize Farm'. Once a farm is fertilized it will remain fertilized for the next 3 days.

All crops still growing (not ready to harvest) will be fertilized. All new crops planted while the farm is still fertilized will be fertilized also.

Once a crop is fertilized, it will produce 2 boxes instead of 1 when harvested, whether the farm is fertilized or not at the time of harvesting. If you hire others to harvest, you will get 2 Large boxes instead of one. Employees will get twice the amount of coins, and 2 boxes as well every time they receive an additional bonus box when harvesting.

When you buy the Manure Spreader tool, it will come with 250 manure units inside for you to start fertilizing right away!

To use the Manure Spreader to fertilise, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Fertilise Farm" and then click on the farm.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

To Fertilize more than one farm at a time:
When you first get the Green Manure spreader and use the tool you get a window Titled "Select Your Farms" which has 2 sections, it defaults to "Select One Farm" which lets you do one farm at a time. To switch it to doing more than one farm you click on the tool then click on the farm and in the window at the top click on "Select Multiple Farms" so the button turns orange, then add a check mark for each farm you want the tool to work on or if you want it to do all farms select "All" at the bottom of the window and then click the green check mark.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...arms arrow.png


You have an option in your game Preferences to show Highlighted Crops/Trees. When this is checked all fertilized crops/trees will have a white highlight around them. However this can make the game slower.

There are also some other ways you can check if your farm is fertilized...
  • Check the background colour of the oval containing your farm name, if your farm is fertilized it will be olive green instead of brown.
  • Go to the farm in question and open the tool box. Hover your mouse over the manure spreader, it will tell you how long the farm is fertilised for and how much manure is stored.
  • Click on your Yellow Tool box to open it, then click on the Show Times icon (looks like a clock). Look in the Per-Farm section and under "Fertilize Farms" it will have a green check mark if a farm can be fertilised OR it will tell you how long until you can fertilise each farm.
  • Look at the colours in the green grid top left of your game screen, any farms that are fertilized will be olive green instead of green.
  • Click on "Show Names" at the top of the green grid and then on "Show Extra Farm Info". The legend top left of that window will show you which farms are Fertilized, Irrigated, Watered and which are Quest farms, Private or Disabled for super neighbour farming actions. If you mouse over each farm it will tell you if there is another land upgrade available for it and what it will cost.
    https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...EFI legend.PNG
    If you hover your mouse over the legend top left of the window it will tell you what the letters and each colour represents. F is for Fertilized.

What is the Mobile Sprinkler?
 
Q: What is the Mobile Sprinkler ?

A: There are 5 sprinklers... Brown, red, orange, green and purple. Depending on the ones you own, they can be used to water ALL flowers on a farm and irrigate crops, trees, flowers to shorten growth time and extend waste time, all with one click.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L APR 2019.PNG


Brown mobile sprinkler - This allows you to water all your flowers on your farm in one click. You earn 3XP when you water your own flowers, but it will cost you 1000 coins. You can use the sprinkler once per day.
  • You can also take this tool with you to water your neighbors' farms.
  • To use it on your neighbors' farms, the tool must be in your storage so it will show up in the Yellow Toolbox. Go to your neighbors farm, open the Yellow Toolbox and simply click on the sprinkler and then click on the farm. You earn 1000 coins and 3 XP every time you water your neighbours' flowers.

When you own the following mobile sprinklers you can NOT use them on your Neighbours farms if you are not their Super Neighbour and they do NOT own the tools. They must own the tools themselves for you to be able to irrigate for them as a Super Neighbour only.

Red Sprinkler - This is used to speed up growth of the crops and flowers by 50%. Please note that while the crops grow in half the time, the end waste time is not effected, meaning if you plant a 4 hour crop, it would be grown in 2 hours, and you'll have 6 hours in which to harvest it, totaling 8 hours, which is what it would be had the crops not been irrigated. You can irrigate a plant more than once, but it's growth speed will only double the first time. You may only irrigate once per day.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...crop times.PNGPlease note: A time that has a decimal point it after it is approximate, the game can not display more than the 1 digit after the decimal point so 3.3 Days is actually 3.333333
Orange Sprinkler - This is used to speed up tree growth by 50%. If you own the orange sprinkler, you only need use this one to irrigate trees, crops and flowers. You can irrigate a plant more than once, but it's growth speed will only double the first time. As with the red sprinkler, speeding up growing time does not effect waste time. You may only irrigate once per day

Green Sprinkler - This tool increases the time to waste period on all crops. For crops that mature in 1 day or less it increases the time to waste period by 24 hours. For crops that take over a day to mature it increases the time to waste period by 48 hours.

Purple Sprinkler - This tool allowes you to irrigate ALL farms or selection of farms in a single click.

Once you own an upgraded sprinkler it will also do the job of the previous ones. Example, if you own the green sprinkler, when you use it it will also apply the jobs of the brown, red and orange sprinklers.

Note: Irrigating crops/trees/flowers will cost you 1000 coins per farm. You will earn 3XP for watering/irrigating the farm that you are on. If you water/irrigate multiple farms at once you will still only earn 3XP for the farm you are on and NOT all the others.

To use the Mobile Sprinkler, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Water Flowers" (brown sprinkler) or "Irrigate" (red, orange, green and purple sprinklers) and then click on the farm.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

To Irrigate or Water more than one farm at a time:
When you first get the Purple Mobile Sprinkler and use the tool you get a window Titled "Select Your Farms" which has 2 sections, it defaults to "Select One Farm" which lets you do one farm at a time. To switch it to doing more than one farm you click on the tool then click on the farm and in the window at the top click on "Select Multiple Farms" so the button turns orange, then add a check mark for each farm you want the tool to work on or if you want it to do all farms select "All" at the bottom of the window and then click the green check mark.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...arms arrow.png


To find out what farms have been watered or irrigated, there are several ways:
  • If you want to know when a specific farm can next be irrigated, go to the farm in question and open the tool box. Hover your mouse over the red, orange, green or purple mobile sprinkler and if you need to wait, it will tell you how long.
  • Click on your Yellow Tool box to open it, then click on the Show Times icon (looks like a clock). Look in the Per-Farm section and under "Water Farm Flowers" and "Irrigate Farm Plants" it will have a green check mark if a farm can be watered or irrigated OR it will tell you how long until you can water/irrigate each farm.
  • Click on "Show Names" at the top of the green grid, top left of the game screen, and then click on "Show Extra Farm Info". The legend top left of that window will show you which farms are Fertilized, Irrigated, Watered and which are Quest farms, Private or Disabled for super neighbour farming actions. If you mouse over each farm it will tell you if there is another land upgrade available for it and what it will cost.
    https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...EFI legend.PNG
    If you hover your mouse over the legend top left of the window it will tell you what the letters and each colour represents. I is for Irrigated, W is for watered.



***IMPORTANT: Only 2 sprinklers will show in the extended toolbar, the brown one for reviving flowers and either the red, orange, green or purple one, you DO NOT lose the other sprinklers, they are still in your storage. ***

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...rs toolbox.JPG

Note: Only you will be able to use the mobile sprinklers to irrigate or water your Quest or Private farms. SN's, neighbours or anyone visiting can not do those farms. However the flowers on a Quest farm can be watered using the watering can.

What are the Bulldozers?
 
Q: What are the Bulldozers?

A: There are 11 bulldozers in total. They can be used to delete items from your farms.

The Bulldozers do not use Fuel.

Super Neighbours with the right permissions will have access to these tools when designing for you as long as you or your super neighbour owns them.

The bulldozers do not delete the animals that you can buy from the Animals section of the store.
The bulldozers do not delete working animals like cows, hens that give you products when harvested.

The bulldozers CAN delete any decorative animal that you can get by earning rewards in the Farm Pass feature and also from buying them in the various other sections of the store as those are all classified as decorations.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...6 MAR 2023.png

What is the Log Truck with Chainsaw?
 
Q: What is the Log Truck with Chainsaw?

A: There are 15 Log Truck w/Chainsaws. They make it much easier to chop the trees than 1 at a time. These tools use Fuel and can be used on other farms when hired.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...7 JAN 2024.png


Log truck with Chainsaw (3x3) - You MUST use the 3x3 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 9 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (8x4) - You MUST use the 8x4 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 32 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (8x8) - You MUST use the 8x8 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 64 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (12x8) - You MUST use the 12x8 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 96 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (12x12) - You MUST use the 12x12 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 144 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (12x16) - You MUST use the 12x16 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 192 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (16x16) - You MUST use the 16x16 layout with NO gaps in order to achieve all 256 trees in 1 click.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (20x20) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 400 trees and uses a new method of chopping.
When selecting the new 20x20 Log Truck w/Chainsaw instead of the Eye in the bottom right you will see the current tool icon >>

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...uck select.png

When you click on that icon, you will see a vertical toolbar with 3 buttons.
The one in the top (Highlight) selects the old method of highlighting each individual item.
The one in the middle selects the New Method (Extent) of highlighting only the perimeter of the area where the tool will operate. Instead of highlighting all the trees, this new method will just highlight a fixed squared section of the farm which works faster and with less manual mistakes. When you use this method you will briefly see "Extent mode selected" in white lettering near the top of the game screen.
The bottom button closes the box.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...st options.png

Also, the tool will always operate as if the Eye was closed, meaning, the recently worked items will be hidden once the work on them is completed..
Log Truck w/Chainsaw (24x24) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 576 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (28x28) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 784 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (32x32) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 1024 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (36x36) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 1296 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (40x40) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 1600 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (44x44) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 1936 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.

Log Truck w/Chainsaw (48x48) - This Log Truck w/Chainsaw will chop up to 2034 trees and uses the new faster method of harvesting as described above.


These tools can be accessed easily if they are placed into Storage. You then click on the Yellow Tool box to access them.


To use the Log Truck w/Chainsaw, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Chop Trees" and then click on the item.

What is the Forklift?
 
Q: What is the Forklift?

A:There are 2 Forklifts, Green and Purple, They can be kept either in storage, or on any farm, it doesn't matter where. These tools Store All products in a Facility. These tools use Fuel to Store.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L APR 2019.PNG


The Green Forklift - Allows you to store all products in a single facility with a single click. This does NOT include service facilities. To do this click on the Facility Manager in the Yellow Toolbox:
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...ty manager.jpg



Then you are able to use the "Store All" button on each facility :-

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...on Sawmill.PNG



You are also able to use the "Store All" inside each facility :-

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...in Sawmill.PNG

The Purple Forklift - Allows you to store ALL products in ALL facilities in a single click. This does NOT include service facilities. As above, open the facility manager, then use the "Store All" button at the top :-
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg... All in FM.PNG


NOTE: Although you do not need to put these tools into Storage it is better if you do. That way the game will recognise what tools you already own should there be another upgraded tool released. Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

What is the Ordering Station w/Trailer?
 
Q: What is the Ordering Station w/Trailer?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...n APR 2019.PNG https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...r APR 2019.PNG

The Ordering Station w/Trailer is used in conjunction with the Semi-Trailer Truck, it can be on any farm or in storage, it doesn't matter.

This enables the 'All' button when ordering products from the Truck.

Also, with the extra trailer capacity products are delivered twice as fast, 30 minutes instead of 1 hour, it's like duplicating the output of each truck assuming you have enough fuel.

Note that if you have multiple trucks, you only need to buy one ordering Station w/ Trailer, and all your trucks will benefit. The trucks MUST be on separate farms, just like with any other facility.

Q. What is the Turbo Ordering Station?
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...n APR 2019.PNG

This tool will allow you to order products from ALL the semi trailers on ALL of your farms.

Q: What is the Armored Truck?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...k APR 2019.PNG

A: The Armored Truck is a tool that allows you to Cash Out ALL Service Facilities in one click. This tool cost 30 Farm Cash. It's NOT the other armored truck that costs coins, that one is just decoration.
NOTE : Cashing out Service facilites uses Fuel.



The "Cash Out All" button is located at the top right of the Facility Manager.

What are the Freestyle Farm Designers?
 
Q: What is the Freestyle Farm Designer?


A: These tools are upgrades to the Yellow Edit Tool (Hand) in your Toolbox. The yellow edit hand that everyone starts out with, looks like this:
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...ellow hand.png

The Freestyle Farm Designers, commonly referred to as the orange, green or purple hands, have more capabilities.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L APR 2019.PNG
Important note about overlapping waters and Fishing!!!!
When you own the freestyle designers that allow you to overlap waters and you choose to do this, you will need to own a Turbo Fishing boat in order to be able to catch every single fish in those waters.
  • Without a turbo fishing boat you will find that you won't be able to catch every single fish in overlapped waters on the farm AND you won't be able to fish the waters that are placed off the edges of a farm as those can ONLY be fished with a Turbo boat.

  • If you don't own a Turbo fishing boat you can hire a worker that owns it to fish them for you and they will need fuel to be able to use it.

  • Hired workers can use the farm owners turbo boat as long as the they have allowed the use of their Tools in the hire. They will also need Fuel.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...yle orange.pngOrange Freestyle Farm Designer: Allows Overlapping of Paths and Ponds. This tool enables paths and water items to almost fully overlap other items.

When you own this tool and place it into Item storage, you will see both the yellow hand and the orange hand in your toolbox.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...tyle green.pngGreen Freestyle Farm Designer: This is an upgrade to the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer which allows Overlapping of All but Plants. If you already own the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer you can buy this Green Freestyle Farm Designer to allow any item except plants (fields/crops/trees/flowers) to almost fully overlap other items.

When you own the Green Freestyle Farm Designer as well as the orange one and place it into Item storage, you will see just the yellow hand and green hand in your tool box. There is no need to show the orange one as the green one will do the jobs of both the Orange and Green Freestyle Farm Designers. Do not sell the Orange hand, it needs to remain in storage so the game can see that you own it, should you then want to upgrade to the purple freestyle farm designer.

You can use the Orange and Green Freestyle Farm Designer tools while designing on other farmers farms as well. When you have permission to design a farm, which ever tool you have, the most upgraded one and the yellow edit hand will show up in your toolbox to use.

Examples of using the orange and green freestyle farm designers:

Using the Orange Freestyle Farm Designer: By overlapping river corners an a bit of imagination, you can create waterfalls....
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger... waterfall.JPG
Using the Green Freestyle Farm Designer: You can also bring other items closer to each other, like the overlapped waters, to create an effect.....
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...aterfalls1.JPG
The Green Freestyle Farm Designer will also let you place some items off the edges of the farm. However this is something that was not intended by the developers to be done with the tool, so you will have to play around with what you are trying to move off the edge as some things will only go off two of the edges not all of them and you may find you need to rotate the item to get it off the edge of a farm. Note: If you choose to overlap or place waters off the edges of the farm, to be able to get all of the fish from the waters you will need a turbo fishing boat.



https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...yle purple.pngPurple Freestyle Farm Designer: This is an upgrade to the Green Freestyle Farm Designer which allows overlapping of All but Plants (fields/crops/trees/flowers). The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer does the jobs of the orange and green freestyle designers and also allows you to:
  • rotate items with a click
  • buy items from the Store and place them with every click
  • buy multiple items from the Store and place them with every click
  • use items from your storage and place them
  • and allows you to almost fully overlap some other items in your farm without requiring to have the full physical space in the farm

    WARNING: The buying options allow you to buy Farm Cash items as long as you have enough FC to cover the items you are buying. Be very careful that you remember to click the green man to stop buying more of the item you are placing!

When you own all of the Freestyle Farm Designers and place them into storage you will see in your toolbox, the yellow edit hand, the green freestyle farm designer and the purple freestyle designer.

To use the Purple Freestyle Farm Designer, place it into Item Storage and then open your toolbox and click on the purple hand. You will then see the following options :
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...e SEP 2020.png
  • Edit items - this is what the green hand currently does.
  • Rotate Items - when you chose this option the item you click on will rotate, then you move the item to the new position and click again to set it down. Click the green man to stop using the tool.
  • Buy one item from the Store - opens the store for you to chose what to buy and overlap.
  • Buy multiple items from the Store - opens the store for you to choose what to buy. Each click buys the item and places it on your farm. Click the green man to stop using the tool.
  • Use items from your Storage - opens your storage for you to choose what to place on your farm and overlap. Click the green man to stop using the tool.


This tool can be used when designing for others but will NOT allow you to buy any Farm Cash Items for them or take any Farm Cash Items out of their Item storage. In the store you will see that all Farm Cash items are showing as Locked.

When you are using the tool on a farm that you have permission to design, the tool menu is slightly different in that you see a choice to use Items from your friends storage. Example:
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...U SEP 2020.PNG


The following picture is to explain the difference in the physical space needed to place an item on the farm with the The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer compared to placing it without the tool...

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...URPLE HAND.PNG

Normally when you place an item on the farm, you need to have a space the same size or larger than the item you are placing, the example here is for an open pit mine, as indicated by the yellow lines.

With the Purple Freestyle Farm Designer you only need a clear space the size of the area indicated in bold red, which is the same size a single pine tree would use.



Important: The Purple Freestyle Farm Designer will let you buy multiples of Farm Cash Items, as long as you have the Farm Cash available to spend, so be very careful that you are buying the right item before you proceed. As soon as you are done buying the item you want make sure you click on the green man to stop buying!



To use the Freestyle Farm Designer, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Edit Items" and then click on the item.
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. You do need to do this if you want to use the Orange or Green Freestyle Farm Designers on another farmers farm (for the Design this Farm Together or Super Neighbour with Design Permissions Features). Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.

    NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

What are the Animal Harvesters?
 
Q: What are the Animal Harvesters?

A: The animal harvesting tools are used to harvest ALL the animal sheds (providing you have all the tools needed) using the 'Harvest All' button in the facility manager. There are 4 tools.

When you own at least one of these tools it will also mean that the Quest Farm Setting for any farm prevents the animals sheds on those farms related to the tools from being harvested when using the Harvest All at the top of the Facility Manager. This can be useful for quest purposes. For more details on setting a farm as a Quest farm, please click on this link: https://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showth...58#post5836358


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...S APR 2019.PNG

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...ng station.jpg - Milking Station - Harvests ALL dairy sheds in ALL farms that have NOT been set as Quest Farms.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...utting set.jpg - Shearing and Cutting set - Harvests ALL wool sheds, rabbit hutches and stables in ALL farms that have NOT been set as Quest Farms.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger/egg collector.jpg - Egg Collector - Harvests ALL chicken coops in ALL farms that have NOT been set as Quest Farms.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger... collector.jpg - Manure Collector - Harvests ALL pigsties on ALL farms that have NOT been set as Quest Farms.
NOTE: To store manure you must own the manure spreader.


When you own at least one of these tools you can use the Harvest All button located at the top of the Facility Manager.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...st all top.jpg

  • To use these tools you must place them into Storage. It is always best to do this, that way the game can see which tools you own should an upgrade to a tool be released in the future.
    NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.

What is the Herding Robot?
 
What is the Herding Robot?

On 27 FEB,2024, the Herding Robot tool was updated and now has more functions.


https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...t APR 2019.PNG



The Herding Robot can be used to store animals in their animal sheds, mainly harvestable animals, some but not all of the very old decorative animals.

The Herding Robot also enables buying multiples of some harvestable animals and sends them directly to the relevant animals shed on whichever of your farms you are on that has room for them instead of buying and placing them one by one on the farm and then storing them.

You can not buy multiples and place them on the farm.
Remember animals that are not in animals sheds can be a huge drain on computer resources and make farms slow to load or even impossible for some computers when far too many animals are on a farm.

  • When you own the Herding Robot make sure that you place it into your Item storage, so that it can be used on any of your own farms.

  • You can not use this tool on another farmers farms. They must own it themselves and use it themselves.

  • You can buy multiple on harvestable animals in the store like sheep, llamas, white rabbits, ostriches and peacocks and automatically send them to the animal shed on the farm you are on as long as you have room for them in the animal shed.

  • As long as you can afford it, you could fill a shed with the maximum amount of animals it will hold with one purchase per animal type.

  • You can also buy and send the amount of animals needed to fill the animal shed if it's got some in but not at maximum yet.

  • These new options mean you can easily fill a harvestable animal shed with coin animals very fast. Without it you are buying them one at a time and the counter on the save icon climbs for each purchase making you wait for them to load before you could store them. The more animals you place on a farm, the longer the wait.

  • This tool will not buy multiples of ANY decorative animals in bulk.

  • This tool will not buy Farm Cash Animals in bulk. Farm Cash Animals must still be bought one at a time and placed on a totally CLEAR SPOT on your farm.

IMPORTANT
Do not buy and place FARM CASH animals without showing EVERYTHING possible on your farms so you can see if there is any clear spot to place them. If you place them where another item is, no matter if it's crop trees, flowers, facilities, buildings, decorations or when there are numerous amounts of those on the farm, your Farm Cash animals can go missing before you get a chance to store them!

Some of the coin animals are quite expensive to buy in bulk for those starting out and not a lot of coins. You may want to consider this before filling any new animal shed form empty to maximum with every kind of coin bought animal it can hold to harvest.

Harvestable sheep for example are only 800 coins each, where as the harvestable ostriches are 50,000 each!



To use the Herding Robot to store working animals that are already placed on your farms, you must have the relevant animal shed on the farm AND have room in the shed on that farm to store them.

Open your yellow toolbox and click on the Herding Robot.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...OT TOOLBOX.png

Then click on the animal you want to store.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...K ON SHEEP.png


You will then see how many you will be storing which will be whatever capacity is left in the animals shed for that animal

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...E 25 SHEEP.png


If there is room for the animals they will be stored in the shed and you will see the message to confirm how many of which animal were sent to the animal shed.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...HEEP MOVED.png



To buy multiples of coin bought harvestable animals from the store and send then directly to animals sheds on the farm you are on, you must have room in the relevant animals shed on that farm to store them.
Open the Store and click on the Animals section.

Scroll down or search for the animal you wish to buy like sheep, llama, white rabbit, ostrich, peacock.

Mouseover the animals and Multiple will appear.

In these examples we are buying sheep:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...ULTI SHEEP.png

CLICK on Multiple and you will see your buying options. If the shed already has some in it but is not full the maximum you will see the maximum you can buy is the remaining capacity of that animal shed for that animal.

When a specific animal in an animal shed is at maximum for capacity (250 regular sheds, 500 super sheds) when you click on Multiple it will show you information like these:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...SHED MAXED.png

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...SHED MAXED.png


These are the options shown when there are no sheep in the animal shed:

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...P REG SHED.png

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...SUPER SHED.png


Scroll down and click on the amount of animals you want to purchase, then you will be shown a popup with information.

These examples are for filling a shed to maximum for regular shed or super shed.

Take note of the type of animal, the amount you are buying and the COST incase you made a mistake or can't afford them. This is your only opportunity to cancel the purchase!!

If the information is correct. Click on the green check mark to buy and store the animal in your animal shed. The coins will be deducted and you can check the animal shed to make sure it is full or the amount you bought was added.
To cancel the purchase, click on the red X instead.

You will then see this type of message when the purchase is successful:

What is the Excavator?
 
Q: What is the Excavator?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...r APR 2019.PNG

A: It is a tool that's used to sell items in bulk from the farm. For protection, this tool will never work with any Farm Cash items OR any Buildings, Trains, Ships, Tools or Facilities.
NOTE: Super Neighbours with the correct design permissions can use this tool on your farm when designing.

For example. If you decided to sell all your water items, it will not sell your Farm Cash waters.

You can use it on any field, plowed fields, growing crop fields, etc but it will always delete and not sell the fields.

Note: When you delete a crop, it does not leave a harvested or plowed field where the crop was planted. It deletes the field it was planted on.

This is an example of the window you will see when you click on a crop to delete it. The top option will delete that specific crop and the fields it is planted on. The second option will let you delete ALL crops and plowed and harvested fields on the farm.

Q:What is the Tower Crane?

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...e APR 2019.PNG

A: It is a tool that's used to move items in bulk to storage. This does not work with FarmCash items or facilities.
NOTE: Super Neighbours with design permissions can NOT use this tool on your farms. They do not have access to your item storage and have no way of knowing if you have room for any items in there.

What are the Multi Planters?
 
Q: What are the Multi Planters?

A: Multi Planters allow you to plant multiples of flowers or trees, from 16 up to 1600 at a time.
There are 7 sizes of Muti Planter tools and they all have several planting options.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L APR 2020.PNG

They must be bought in size order, so to buy the Multi Planter 8x8 you must first own the Multi Planter 4x4. To buy the Multi Planter 12x12 you must own both the 4x4 and the 8x8 and so on.

The Multi Planter works on both new trees and flowers from the store, those in your gift box and those you have in storage as long as you have enough clear space on your farm to place them.

To use the Multi Planter, the tool must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Plant Items" and then follow the instructions below.
  • However, if you are wanting to plant from storage you need to place the tool into storage. It is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way the game knows what tools you own should another upgrade be released. You can then access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.



Buying new flowers or trees from the Store using the Multi Planters:

Click on the Multi Planter you want to use and the store will open.
Once you have chosen which tree or flower you want to plant, then you can choose from one of the following 6 patterns in which to plant them.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/Tiger...x patterns.jpg
Click on the pattern you want to use and as you click on the farm it will plant those in that pattern.



Using the Multi Planters to plant flowers or trees from storage:
  • Open your Storage to the Item section.
  • Find the trees or flowers you wish to plant. You may find it easier to either use the search box to find them or filter Item Storage to trees or flowers.
  • Hover over the box containing the flower or tree and you will see a Multi button with a drop down arrow to the right and also a Use button. (The Use button is for planting one by one.)
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg... MULTI USE.png

To use the Multi Planter click on Multi and a list will appear showing you the available sizes as shown below.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...TI OPTIONS.png

Click on the size you want to use and then you will then be shown the planting patterns for you to choose from. Click on the pattern and as you click on the farm, it will plant what you have selected in the pattern you chose until you run out of those in storage.

As of April 2020, the Multi Planters can now overhang the bottom edges of the farm so you don't have to switch to using a smaller tool to get it to fit within the farm. This is useful when you want to add trees or flowers to the bottom edges of an upgraded farm size.

What are the Transplanters?
 
Q. What are the Transplanters?

These tools are upgrades to the Multi Planter tools. They will transplant trees and or flowers from one part of the farm to another part of the same farm as long as you have enough clear space on your farm to move them to. To buy one of these you must first own the same size Mulitplanter.

Example:
To buy the Transplanter 4x4, you must first own the Multi Planter 4x4
To buy the Transplanter 8x8, you must own both the Multi Planter 4x4, Multi Planter 8x8 and Transplanter 4x4.

*NOTE* The Transplanters will NOT move trees/flowers from one farm to another farm.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L MAY 2020.PNG

The 4x4 Transplanter will move up to 16 trees or flowers.
The 8x8 Transplanter will move up to 64 trees or flowers.
The 12x12 Transplanter will move up to 144 trees or flowers.
The 16x16 Transplanter will move up to 256 trees or flowers.
The 24x24 Transplanter will move up to 576 trees or flowers.
The 32x32 Transplanter will move up to 1024 trees or flowers.
The 40x40 Transplanter will move up to 1600 trees or flowers.


To use your machine to transplant, it must be on the farm or in storage.

You can do 2 things. . .
  • If the tool is on your farm, you can click on the tool and click "Transplant Items"
  • However, it is better to place all tools into your Storage. That way you can access all your tools from the Yellow Tool box, on any of your farms, without having to move the tool from farm to farm. Once they are in Storage, you can click on the Yellow Toolbox to open it, and then click on the tool you want to use.
  • NOTE: Farm Cash Tools do not count towards your storage capacity, you can store as many of those as you want.


Once you have clicked on the tool you will see this menu where you can choose to transplant "All trees AND All flowers", "All trees OR All flowers", "specific trees OR flowers". Chose your option then hover over the trees/flowers you want to move to highlight them. When you have highlighted them click on them to move them, then when you have moved them to the new position, click again to set them down.
https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...anter mode.PNG

The "Duplicate Pattern" option duplicates any flowers and trees pattern you have in your farm.
  • To use this, put a check mark in the box next to Duplicate Pattern
  • Then click on one of the 3 options in blue to chose which trees/flowers you want to duplicate
  • Hover your mouse over the trees/flowers on your farm that you want to duplicate to highlight them.
  • On the first click in the farm it will select the pattern and each click after that will buy from the store all the required trees and flowers and will plant them in your farm.

This option does not duplicate trees or flowers that are available via gifts only.

What are the Gifting Machines?
 
What are the Gifting Machines?

Some Gifting Machines decrease the time until you can send gift again,
Some Gifting Machines increasing the amount of gifts you receive.
Some Gifting Machines increase your Gift Boc Capacity.

https://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameg...L MAR 2024.png

Without the tools you can send gifts every 8 hours and have a maximum of 150 gifts in your gift box.


Gifting Machine (Grey in colour) lets you send gifts every 4 hours.
Gifting Machine (Red) lets you send gifts every 3 hours.
Gifting Machine (Orange) lets you send gifts every 2 hours.


Gifting Machine (Green) doubles the amount of gifts you receive..
Gifting Machine (Pink) gives you 3 gifts for every 1 that you accept.
Gifting Machine (Yellow) gives you 4 gifts for every 1 that you accept.


Gifting Machine (Purple) expands your Gift Box capacity to 500.
Gifting Machine (Brown) expands your Gift Box capacity to 1000.
Gifting Machine (Blue) expands your Gift Box capacity to 2000.
Gifting Machine (Light Blue) expands your Gift Box capacity to 4000.


*NOTE* For the tools that multiply gifts This ONLY applies to crops, trees, flowers, animals that can be harvested (horses, cows, hens, turkeys, goats, geese), freshwater bait, seawater bait and production ingredients.

The amount of Bonuses and ingredients you can have in your gift box remains the same at around 130.

You must buy the previous tool in order to buy the next one. So to buy the Red gifting tool, you must first own the Grey one and so on.

These tools must be placed in your Item Storage to work Once they are there you don't have to do anything with them, the game will recognize which ones you own.
