I Can't Post For Help?

1. Try clearing your browser's cache. http://www.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=421890
2. Uninstall your flashplayer, restart your computer, and reinstall the most current version of flashplayer from the Adobe site.
3. Try using a different browser.
4. Ensure that you have pop-ups enabled on your computer.

Remember:

The facilities/tools that you fill with coins rather than product, ie: the semi trailer truck, the bee farm, do not have a help option. Also Religious and Funeral Facilites can not be used to post facility work.

To send out a help request to your Facebook friends you need to be in regular screen mode rather than full screen mode.

Can I Have More Than One Of The Same Facility?

Yes, you can buy and place the same facility on DIFFERENT farms and they will each produce for you. If you put more than one on the SAME farm, the duplicates would only copy the production information in the others but not actually produce anything extra, they will be considered as decoration.

Note: For facilities to work as intended, your computer's clock and calendar need to be set accurately.

Is there a Limit on how many Facilities I can put on a farm?

Yes. It's the limit is between 350 and 400. However, that amount can also be affected by how much production you have in those facilities that have not been stored. If you see a message telling you that you have too many facilities on a farm, the first thing we suggest is to store all production from those facilities then refresh farm and see if the message goes away. If it does then do not add any more facilities to that farm and remember to store regularly. If it comes back, store all production and move some facilities to another farm. NOTE: Train locomotives and their long cars also count as part of this limit, one for each locomotive and one for each long car, so you need to take into account those as well if you have the trains on the same farms your facilities are on.

When you have more than one farm there is a quick way to find out how many facilities of each type you have on a farm. This does not include the trains in the count. You can find information on how to do that Chapter 13 of the Game Guide, or you can click this link:What is Show Facility Info?

Working Neighbors Facilities: This is to explain the time between working a neighbours facilities before you can rework that same neighbor's post again. To simplify the answer it was originally stated that you had to wait a day.

Notice that if you spend at least 8 straight hours in a day without playing farmtown (when you sleep, eat breakfast, etc, most people will fall in this category) then you will in fact be able to work your friends facilities at least once per day. If you want to work them say twice per day, you will have to work them all say in the morning, 9AM, and then do not work anymore facilities until after 5 PM, after that time you will be able to work them all again. The key point is that you will be able to work ALL your friends facilities after 8 hours has passed since the LAST facilities you worked. Basically what this is saying is that after you have worked a neighbours facility there must be a gap of 8 hours, where you do not work any facilities, before you can work the neighbours facility again.

We hope this information helps.

Suggestions for NEW Facilites, post in New Facilities, Buildings, and Super Facility

I had a bank already and I bought another one. I load the banks but the help tab is not there and nothing ever is worked in the bank. It shows up in my list of facilities but it stays loaded 100%. Any help is appreciated.

The bank is like the mines, semi-truck and oil pumps. They cannot be worked by neighbors.

Be patient as it can take anywhere from a few hours to a few weeks for them to get back to you depending on how many tickets they have ahead of yours.

Here we are, 3 weeks later and I still can't work other facilities - and it's NOT my computer. Now I can't even boost my train or accelerate anyone else's. Support is NO help. I have spent my last dime on this game.

I have been off farm town for a few months. I am back, and am wondering if there is some way to hire for the facilities? I know we were able to do it for a long time.... Maybe I am just missing the obvious.

Hi! if you went to his farm from your own farm, check your preferences to see if you have the check mark in Show Buildings.

If your husband cant see them when he opens his Facility Manager or cant find his facilities neither on his farms, with everything hidden but not the buildings nor in his item storage with the filter set to Facilities, please provide a link to his farms to be checked.

Instructions on how to get the farm link in the following thread.

Hi! your link is not working. Please open your extended tool box and click in Farm selector manager. You'll see a list with the names of all your farms. Click in Copy link button and then click in the name of one of your farms. Come back to the forum and paste it in your response.

Have you checked all your farms with everything hidden, but buildings on? Have you checkd your item storage with the filter set to Facilities? Are your facilities showing up when you open your Facility manager?
