OFFICIAL Game Running Slow

[hannah1955]

I have checked and made sure you browser is up to date. I have checked that spot in the game that you show a picture of to compress graphics, clear Memcache, also cleared browser cache and nothing helps. When I am working to help in my neighbors facilities or businesses. It takes forever to complete any of them and I have 4 trains 3 with 11 cars connected. It worked fine before and it has been this way for a few months now. I wrote before and was told to clear my browser cache and it doesn't make any difference. Please tell me what else I can do to improve it. I have to stop doing some of them after waiting over a half hour on one farmers hire.

Hi hannah

The developers are aware of the slowness while working friends facilities.

Im not sure if this will help you, but due to this, I changed the way working them. Now Im not opening the same farmer's facilities and services in different tabs. Instead Im working regular facilities first and after doing some of them then I work the services.

Been having an intermittent problem for a week or so lately where I click on the next farm to move to the next farm get the message "loading farm" and it never progresses from that message. Must reload the game to proceed.

Hi John

I just loaded your farms with everything checked in my preferences and had no problems going from farm to farm. Only thing I noticed is you have horses and Clydesdale on some farms and those farms could load slowly.

Please be sure your browser is up to date and also if you have any pending update for Windows. I use Chrome and I got 2 updates for it during the last week.
Remember to restart if you do an update.

If you have other updated browser, then try it and see if it works better.

Other than that you could follow the suggestions given in the first post, first page of this thread.

Hi Tessie,

I have moved your post to the thread about game running slow.
The more a layering on a farm the harder it can be to load and work for some farmers depending on their computer.

If you have not kept up with your computer updates and browser updates please do those.

If everything is up to date, please go to the first post on page one and see if there is anything listed there that you have not already tried. Here's the link to that post:

after the migration to html5, WOW, amazing speed! as things were added/enabled post-migration, it slowed things a little, a little at a time...Today a different story... since yesterday, when it 'normally' took about 10-20 seconds for the initial game page to load fully, today, over a minute. Nothing on my end has changed, this appears to be a sluggish server or the ISP for the server is bogged down. What has changed since yesterday? Whatever changes were made should be un-done...

Hi ncbba,
Nothing has changed with the servers. As you said it could just be an internet problem somewhere between you and the servers. There are many links between you and the Facebook app servers and many more links between there and the Farm Town servers. Anyone of those links could be having traffic problems that is slowing down your data transfer. Unfortunately we have no control over those links.

Hi kbirk1950,

I have moved your post to the thread about the game running slow. Layering can cause all of these issues that you are having with slowness, loading, items going missing and with difficulties getting items out of storage onto a layered farm which is why it's not recommended. As you already have issues with those farms you certainly shouldn't be trying to add more to them as you could make the problem far worse.

When the game tells you that there are too many items then it means that you either have too many items in either the area you are trying to move them to or you have too many items on the entire farm.

Not everyone has a computer capable of loading farms that are layered, the more that is layered and the bigger the farm, the harder it can be or even impossible for some. If you have not kept up with your computer updates and browser updates please do those.

As you can't load Farm 3 then you need to have a think about what is on that farm and consider what you could reduce on that farm so that you can load it yourself without it locking up for you when you show everything on it. To do that, try going to a farm that you can load, then turn everything off in your preferences so that nothing is showing up (crops, trees, waters, flowers etc). Then see if you can get to farm 3 without anything showing at all. If it will load like that, try ONLY showing one type, and see if it locks up with only that showing. It's then up to you what you want to try to reduce so that you can load it without it locking up. We suggest that you only show the item you are going to reduce the amount of, before you try to load it with everything else showing.

When the game tells you that it can't move something out of storage then that means either you don't have enough clear space to set it down or there is something already in that spot preventing it. If you are trying to layer more items on top of other items already on the farm, from storage, I am sorry but we are not allowed to provide instructions or permitted to let anyone else post them due to the problems layering can cause.

To see what kinds of things can cause slowdowns, please go to the 1st post on page 1:
