- the facilties manager is lacking in two major departments - a one click for animal harvests, and more detrimentally, a work all function for each farm on neighbours work requsts - I would love to work my neighbours facs again, but I just cant because of the sheer bulk of them...
This is an excellent point. Many of my neighbors don't work my facilities and I often wonder if they are overwhelmed. I visited their farms out of curiosity to see if they were still farming and they are! They harvest, plant etc but only post their facilities once or twice a month and never work mine.

I feel bad that I don't work many of my neighbor's work posts .. but my hand just can't handle all those clicks .. I have neighbors that have factories on EVERY farm and lots of multiples ...

I would love a 'Master Factory' option when we go to work our neighbors posts to do ... at least All factories on that 1 farm if not all active factories period ..

This help with working neighbors Help Wanted posts is being asked by a LOT of players ... We know we will have to pay for it but it would put more people back to playing the game I believe ... I could load my factories more fully if I could work more neighbor's easily ...

Please come up with a quicker easier way for us to go work our neighbors postings ...

I'm not all that happy with the new train either ,, I bought them all but wish I had waited ... I don't need any of the stuff the boxcars bring because I have built up a storage of raw and basic goods and I just don't work my factories that intensely .... Wish we had a return policy too

But I do LOVE this game ..

You mean something like a farm town mall where you could place all of your facilites for a small fee each (maybe 3-5 fc per fac) that would let one click work every facility in the mall at the same time and would let neighbors do the same

hmmm intersting idea, but why make it so difficult, one tool, say a purple forklift or something, fc of course, that will allow you to click work requests on friends feeds, load up their farm, instead of the **** facs showing one by one, it brings up the fac manager with a button up top saying "Work All", I really cannot beleive this hasnt aleady happened

I dont see it as difficult i see it as emptying up space.

I could see putting them in there to empty up some space, but the one click would have to be one option or you could go in to the mall and work each factory separately, there might be some facilities that I don't want every item in the factory started or maybe some factories I don't want to start at all. It could be when you click on the mall it brings up a mall manager which would show all of the facilities in the mall just like the facility manager, but it only show the facilities in the mall and at the top it could have a button for start all and store all or you could click on the factories and go into them and the neighbors could load the mall and have a work all button at the top which would work all the facilities in the mall.

Im sorry but when you click to work your neighbors facilities youre agreeing to work them all not just pick and choose which ones you want. Ive removed over a dozen neighbors for doing just that. As for not wanting some started i see what youre saying. Perhaps a checklist for which facs you want/dont want worked by your neighbors.

I am wondering why one would even bother loading up any or all of a facility if they didnt want it started at all. Not harking on anyone just wondering what purpose it would serve. If its a logical one heck i may start doing it.

I've been wanting this a while.
I have a farm with every facility on it, 97 of them, and even doing them myself via another account I can see why others don't want to do it.

I believe in having the option to do just one click per farm to work all facilities on that farm would save time and get us working together again.
14 farms with facilities, then 14 farms for client work, that makes a total of 28 clicks, now compare that to the (about) 300 clicks it currently takes to do my farms and you can see my point.
