Since the update.. storing ALL on my facilities is taking so long.. compared to when I am working on neighbours facilities.

Maybe my forklift needs a service <smile>

Al, the official number is 80, but many can get up to around 110. I would say since you are getting 1 dropping when you add 1 then you have reached your limit.

i want to update this post for anyone that may have the same issue. upon further analysis these time outs have nothing to do with the number of animals seen on a farm. i just finished smoothly working a friend's farm that had close to 100 animals on it, so i went back to some of the farms that kept timing out. the issue is caused by a specific way that the 'forbidden topic' is executed, so if you are experiencing time outs while working facilities i suggest you look closely at the farm with nothing hidden. i am compiling a 'no work' list for people i find using this method. i will not contribute to dragging down the farm town servers.

Loving the quicker way to work facilities. I'm hoping people realize soon so I can get my employees back!. Just wondering though; Why do we need to confirm each factory? It is kinda annoying to have to answer the work request box in-between each factory and even worse when you accidentally click no and have to go through every factory you have already worked to find your place and start working again. Can't it be assumed that if we are on a farm to work facilities and services that you are there to work them all? The next factory should come up automatically when you close one factory.

I've been having the same thoughts. I can click through the facilities the old way pretty quickly so it doesn't make huge amounts of difference, but love the new way as it's much better for my poor hands. However it is kind of spoilt because the confirmation that 'yes please take me there' between every facility hasn't been dispensed with. That and the 'work all' button would make a massive difference for us.
