New Release -- December 1st, 2016

[Tom C]

I bought the blue one last night and it said when I did that I could only have 1 blue ship dispatched at a time. I take it from that I can not buy 7 blue ships and send one of them out each day, has to be one of each color if you want to send them out each day. You can fill as many containers as you want and send the ship out if you only want to fill one you can fill that one and send it out.

Is it 45 minutes vs 60 minutes per container to fill?
What if I only want to fill 1 container? Will the ship sail anyway?
Merry Christmas Everyone!

Hi Rugged Barbie,

The ships are released according to level and neighbour requirement and yes the yellow one will load the products faster.

If you only want to load one container you can, the dispatch button will show up as soon as that container shows ready to ship.

Hi Tom,

You can buy more blue ships, but the others will only be for decoration and will not carry products. If you want to dispatch a ship a day then yes you need one of each colour.

I will check the ship centre when I am on - but since we have no control of who the ships are sent to - nor do we know what else they have to do outside of Farm Town, we will need to accept what we get with a smile. Something like the neighborhood challenge... Sometimes we get stuff, and once in a blue moon we might actually get some farmcash. Think I got it once so far. View all of this as extra so not disappointed if the neighbors are not as active...

Oh.... and for those that are interested, you can add the ship onto your main tool bar to avoid having to go into the meeting menus to get it

With regards the ships, what happens if the first dock visited no one responds?

THx Tom, Ive just read it again, It says the ship will remain at each port until worked on. Im sorry that's a waste of time.

I wish they had made it so the ship skips a port after a certain amount of time - although then it probably wouldnt give neighbours much of a chance to catch it. Maybe we could have an option to tell the ship to skip a neighbour and move the ship on if it is held up. I really HATE the thought of nagging people to work my ships.

When will you ever increase the amount of marble rock and clay blocks and add the marble rock to trains and ships???? You add products that need it but never help us get more of it
