New Release -- February 15th, 2013

[Liberal Annie]

I am irrigating my fields with the red sprinkler. Things look fine. I go out of the farm and back in and it's like I haven't watered them at all. Everything is back to its original growing speed. HELP!!!

[WilderWest]

My sprinkler is still only watering parts of the farm. Maybe 3/4 of my trees right now are irrigated and the rest are not.

ETA I use the orange sprinkler.

Latest update from the developers :-

Post Release Updates - Feb 19th, 11:10PM EST:

- When using the Brown Sprinkler to Water neighbour flowers it now shows the farm names of your neighbour farms

- If you use the Brown Sprinkler to Water flowers, you can now use the other Sprinklers to accelerate growth right after that

- Sprinklers should now accelerate all plants in a farm, not partially

- Production Chain for Textile Mill adjusted, it is now after the Petrochemical Plant which is the one producing the Polyester Fiber

- We changed a few wording on the game and the Store so you can understand better the differences between the Brown Sprinkler and the Rest. The Brown Sprinkler is the Upgrate to the Watering Can, it just Water flowers in one click. The other Sprinklers are about Irrigation and accelerate growth and extend Gone to Waste time. As a bonus, the Sprinklers that accelerate growth also Water the flowers so you can do this 2 things at once, as there is no negative side effects in this case.

Based on this, we decided to have 2 different letters (status) in Farm Selector to indicate when you have Watered the flowers using the Brown Sprinkler that day (W), or when you have Irrigated the plants using the other Sprinklers that day (I). We did this same separation in the Time Manager. Also, on the farm, accelerated flowers/crops/trees will show an (I) instead of a (W).

yipee, thanks devs and Tony D, just found that (I )shows instead of (W) when watering a planted crop.....so glad its fixed...and the problem crop that was ready and then was not has shown as ready again and has been harvested, farm plowed, replanted and Irrigated!!! lol

[Nyrelle]

Thanks for the work you are doing to rectify the sprinkler problems Raul, much appreciated. My farms now show the "I" as described in your notes.

Hi Guys, I have just harvested and watered my flowers. As soon as I watered they reappeared as ready to harvest, but after refreshing they were showing as harvested and irrigated only. Not really a problem for me but you asked for anything weird

Cheers Lyn
