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).

Post Release Updates - Mar 1st, 17:10PM EST:

- New Train decorations and new Airplane decoration are now live, see top of this post for details.

Known Issues:

- We can't confirm if there are still weird issues with the flowers, like watering flowers then harvesting and then all flowers appearing Ready to Harvest again after a refresh. If you experience any weird behaivor with the flowers please report the details on this thread.

When you buy the train track switch, it loads, take coins but is invisible! Can not even see it on end of mouse pointer. I tried reloading the game, it loads but is still invisible. Ran memcache and cleaned out macromedia files.

The Roundhouse goes in a train yard. It is made to be able to turn engines around.

Hi Devs

Hope this helps you:

1. I was hired in the marketplace to harvest crops and flowers which I did and successfully claimed the bonus.

2. I watered the employer's farm with the brown sprinkler and the flowers were instantly ready to be harvested.

3. I harvested the flowers again and again I successfully claimed the bonus.


While I don't know if the flower harvest is double or not (I don't know how many flowers I had in storage to start with) this is a beneficial glitch. Its always difficult to get enough flowers to fill the flower facility to 100% each time.
