New Release -- March 30th, 2010 (More Facilities)

[Duck Duck Goose]

Oh this is all just flippin awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!! TYVM!!!!!
Ok Devs, slam the brakes on now with anymore new stuff, so this can all sink in.
Plus you need to backtrack and address what you have currently accomplished, and finish making all the functions of each facility work for everyone - - ESPECIALLY US MYSPACE STEPCHILDREN!!!!! LOL
We need the produce faster feature to start working, and also please consider allowing us to hire ppl to harvest facilites instead of using streams to advertise for random help. They simply just don't produce fast enough.
There are so many ingredients required for each product, and we are having to wait MANY MANY DAYS to get our return profit back.

IE:
plant entire farm of wheat-2days
tomato-2 more days
cheese - 10 YEARS
onions - 3 days
It will take 9 days just to plant and harvest all these crops, not to mention many more days to have the ingredients PROCCESSED so we can send it all to the pizza shop, and then wait many more days to get the pizzas made.
We're talking a few WEEKS just to make a decent amount of pizzas!!!!!!!!
Meanwhile we have to invest a butt-load of money and wait few weeks to see our return.
OMG please have mercy - devs.........

Hey, Duck, I thought the same thing when I bought the plants, but once they get the request for help working, you will love it! Each neighbor can process up to 20% of the total amt in production, so it happens VERY quickly if you get 5 neighbors to help. The problem I'm having, is most neighbors play FV, and the FT req for help get lost in all those FV posts, so I'm having to req help via chat msg. The key to needing several items for pizza, is not to fill the entire farm with one ingredient. Get them all going at once.

I started by planting the entire farm in raspberries, done in 2 hrs, now I have plenty of raspberries for yogurt. Blueberries and strawberries will be done tomorrow and Thurs. Plant half wheat and half sugar on 2nd farm, if you have one. It will all work out and you will LOVE it!!

So, where do you store everything? Do you not sell it in the marketplace?

Here is a plan ... Don't plant your entire farm with one crop; try planting four or five or even more crops at a time.

I have two farms; one growing berries, trees, mushrooms, etc., my animals are here, most of my buildings and decorations, etc. the second one is growing onions, wheat, tomatoes, etc. (four or five different crops). Facilities on both farms (twice the production), and I don't seem to be out of room. Still have a couple of facilities to put up (juice factory and maybe chocolate factory), but I have plenty of room to do it.

I really don't understand why people seem to think they need a third farm ... Perhaps Farmtown should open a college that teaches Ag courses, Civil Engineering courses, landscape design and a few business courses. LOL

It depends on how you design. Some people have several houses, barns, facilities etc = town. Other people have one house, barns etc = a single farm.
