Hi Joyfull,
I moved your post to the thread about tools.
You can only irrigate a farm once every 20 hours. When you hover over the irrigator while you are on that farm it will tell you how many hours until you can irrigate. Also if a crop is already grown it will not irrigate that crop, so if your short term crops are already grown then they will not get irrigated.
You can also see how long until you can irrigate individual farms by going to the times clock tool in your tool box and switch to Per Farm tab.

I have a 6 combine plow harvest plant tool and it won't work unless it is on the farm I am working on. I didn't see anything about this changing. Is this a glitch?

Hi Lillymc,
The tools have to be in storage to be able to use them from the tool box. You do not need to take it out of storage to use them. The 6x6 combine is purple in color and would be in the 4th row from the right just above the green 5x5 ones.

Sorry I must be missing something but I don't see ANY benefit at all for those who don't layer, NONE! It is NOT any faster IMHO!!!

What those who don't layer are DESPERATE for is having H / P / P / Combine tools that function EXACTLY like the larger fishing, log, flower, shaker tools, not 1,000 small squares but ONE LARGE SQUARE!!!

Look are those tools and compare!!! THAT would be faster, these are not at least that I can see? Please explain if I don't understand something.

Hi John,
I moved your post from Suggestions to the Help & Support thread about tools since this is not a suggestion.
I think you are missing how the new extent mode works for those combines. When you select the tool, then choose your crop choice, look in the lower right corner and click on the icon for the tool. Then click on the bottom of the 2 options. The yellow individual squares you normally see will change to a large blue square just like the large yellow square you see for the flower, tree, and boats.
It does not default to the extent mode but will stay in that mode for your entire session.

AH, gotcha, thanks!!!

I can't find anything about trains but my issue is that. I have four trains but can't post service and referrals at once. What am I doing wrong? Obviously I don't understand what fully diversified trains are. In all honesty, I have a sneaking suspicion that it means more FC. HELP frmrfbi ID# 1682600615
