Hi dcsully,
They just did go back to yesterday about 30 minutes ago:

Post-Release Updates - October 30th, 5:00PM

- Due to all the issues with the current release we are reverting back to the previous release so we can have more time to fix all the bugs players have found so far, we estimate all the known bugs should be fixed by monday or tuesday next week.

We will also bring back the red lines, however realize this makes operations like dragging, working on a farm and the game in general very slow, specially if there are too many red lines on the screen. This is why we released a few months ago the "Grass with Guidelines" in the Paths category, which is just a grass with the red lines but do not slow down the game, although we understand this is not accessible to all players because it is a farm cash item that you need to purchase once (35FC) and then apply as many times as you like to the rest of the farms.

Please restart your farms to see if things are not back to what was working yesterday.

Note: As far as I can see these red lines do not slow down my farms, but that is just in my case... I personally prefer having these red squares/lines for planting and transplanting trees & flowers... I do have the "Grass With Guidelines" but I find that is more helpful for deciphering the center of the farm, placing an item (example a fence) directly opposite to each other, etc...

Facility Manage back to my original Customized Settings...

And it looks like hidden objects are staying hidden...

I'm a Happy Farmerette again!!!...


P.S. Haven't checked the harvest/plow/plant problem yet...
I just harvested/chopped trees and harvested/plowed crops on 3 farms in 30 minutes whereas earlier today before the return of the red lines and the hidden object problem, it took me almost 2 hrs to do 2 quest farms... BIG BIG, HUGE difference... THANK YOU once again!!!...

What an adventure today was. I could tell the devs are working hard to fix everything. Never knew what I was going to get. The last 6 or 7 farms worked perfectly. Still have lines, but looks like things are getting back to normal - whatever that is.

I've been playing this game since the beginning. New players have no idea what all the long-timers have been through and what all the devs have fixed. It's an awesome game. Have a little faith that things will return to how they're supposed to be soon.

Debugging is one of the hardest things devs do in any application. You fix one and another 5 pop up. Keep going guys. We're with you!!

In the meantime, look at the game as an adventure in problem solving. I've learned many things since this new release that I wouldn't know if not for the problems.

First and foremost ,I would like to give a big SHOUT OUT to Raul and his team for working to clean up someone elses mess!! The glitches were created by flashes update and creating a ton of work arounds for Raul and his team who are the heros in this trying to fix our game...
Now I would like to ask a favor, Please release the soldiers, and other decorations for us to honor our service men and women this Veterans Day... I know that a lot of us would like to have them to decorate our farms in their honor especially for those who like my husband have served and is a Vietnam Vet.
Now I realize Raul, this is a lot to ask.. but if you would get the developers to make little avatars of you and your team , I would be very proud to make them a part of my farm.... Thank you Very Much for all of your hard work & HAPPY FARMING !!!

Just wanted to add my 2 cents ..... the Developers are working on fixing all of these issues, and I just want to say "Thank You!" to them ! Sure, things are a little wonky now, but they ALWAYS fix them .... and we really do have to appreciate the fact that they actually LISTEN to the players ... There is NO other game that does this ..... Granted, it is very frustrating when the game is not running correctly ... but if everyone can just take a moment to think about it .... it's really not often at all that we have problems - and when we DO ... the developers are on top of it. This latest mess is NOT on Farm Town nor Slashkey, but because of freakin' Flash ....... yet it's the Developers of Farm Town that are putting up with all the complaints and trying to find a work-around for the mess ....

Let's all just take a second, think about it, then tell Slashkey "THANK YOU" for listening to us!

Would it be possible at some point to have a check box to turn the red lines on and off?
