Maybe we have a new update lurking for tomorrow... It's about that time. If I remember correctly (to lazy to go look) last years December update was on 12/3. Don't know if that makes any difference at all but we can hope so.

My "Buy FC-problem" and another question.

Well, the only way for me to sort out the problems with buying FC, was to make a brand new PayPal-account. Nobody were able to explain *why* all of a sudden I couldn't buy FB-credit and FC. Strange, but solved. Thanks, Taz for trying to help me out.

My question is aout these Sprinklers of ours: I have the Red Sprinkler (the Brown is still gone, even if we paid real money to buy them). But please tell me *why* I should buy the Orange one, please.
Will I be able to decide myself if I'd only want to water my flowers, and NOT the crops??

Regards
Simera

I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS FIGURING OUT WHEN MY CROPS WILL BE FINISHED AFTER IRRIGATING.

HOW MUCH ACTUAL TIME FOR 1.2 DAYS & 1.6 DAYS. ALWAYS HAVE TO WAIT MORE HOURS FROM WHAT I FIGURED. IF SOMEONE HAS AN EASY FORMULA FOR FIGURING IT, I WOULD SURE APPRECIAte it.

great update. thanks to Raul & the devs.

I don't have any of the sprinklers (don't do flowers) but let me try. First thing is no you don't have the option to choose to water just flowers and not crops. The only way I can figure out how to do that would be to water flowers before crops are planted and then crop will not be sped up.
The Orange sprinkler adds the trees to that and speeds them up too.

If you water as soon as you plant then the ready time for the crop will be exactly half. However if you wait say half of the time before you water then the time would only be cut by 1/4, because it only cuts the remaining time in half. There is no easy formula to figure it out. The only way you can tell would be to look at the time left just after you water it to be able to know what it is going to be.

Farmtown day is 20 hours,each .1 is therefore 2 hours.1.2 days=24hours,1.6=32hours.

I don't think that is correct. The days shown in those times is actually based on a 24 day. A 2 day crop which is 40 hours shows as 1.6 days. If you divide 40 hours by 24 hours then you get 1.666666, rounded to 1.6 days. So 1.6 x 24 = 38.4 which is not exactly accurate either as it should be 40 hours. And 1.2 x 24 = 28.8 hours.
Not as easy and far from being a good accurate system to determine when crops are going to be ready.

Thanks, Taz! Would the Orange one add up *harvesting* trees, or just chopping??
I only have flowers as decorations, as well. But they aren't much of decoration value if they are just sitting there as "black lumps"!!!

Thank you, once more!
