I have one complaint regarding hiring in the marketplace. When a farmer does not respond to a hire request in a timely fashion and his/her color turns yellow they should not be able to accept that hire when they wake up! It is not fair to the other farmer I was able to hire and who responded to the hire request quickly. That is my rant for today! PattyAnne

Hi PAttyAnne,
The hire request is supposed to expire after 30 seconds, however that does not always work. With the developers busy trying to get the rest of Farm Town working on the website, this is on their list but is not being worked on at the moment. The only thing I can suggest for now is wait 30 seconds longer after they have turned yellow.

So I have a problem with items in storage being automatically marked as 'Selected' so when I sell to Tom in the marketplace these items automatically sell.I don't want to sell them !!

It happened a few days ago, I lost 3 different things...Now it just happened again and I have lost 13 separate items -

Chandelier shade
Sink and Faucet
Honey ice cream
Orange soda
Beeswax
Hotdog
Mirror glass sheet
Dried Cranberries
Butterscotch extract
Pumpkin spice
Sunflower oil
Coconut oil
Apple sauce.

Some things I could identify and 'uncheck' them.. Some have none in stock so they are still 'checked'

Also when I check on 'a run until-full of what to do in your facilities''
the default start is now for ''Service facilities'', not for ''All Facilities''
No idea what the story is

Hi Merv,
When you go to the market to sell you do have to make sure that only the items you want to sell are checked if you are going to use the sell selected setting. There is no automatic checking in the storage.
For the ingredient planner it will default to the last setting you have used.
If you change the settings to what you want, then close it and then reopen it it should be set to what you have just changed it to.

''....close it and then reopen it it should be set to what you have just changed it to...''

Yes
I agree
Except it doesn't.
Which is why I commented.

I have played this game for maybe 10 years ...
Never had to check which items are selling in the marketplace.
Never
Ever
Not once

Never had the problem with items self selecting before
Never.
Ever.
Not once.

Hi Merv,
I can't duplicate what you are saying as I have always been able to reset the ingredient planner to what I want it to be normally by doing what I said. It defaults to last settings you have used. Don't know that it will help, but try changing it. Then run the memcache and reopen your farms and go back and see what it is set to.


For the market, I can only suggest you use the filter non-ingredients or non-ingredients (for me) and the sell all in those to sell only things you do not need further. I am not sure what filter you have been using to sell from as we only see data for those 2 settings.

If there is anything you specifically want to sell go to the individual item in the list and sell from there.
The other thing you can do is when you have some of the items that were empty in your storage then go to the market and uncheck those items you know are being sold. That way it should stay set as unchecked.

Hello:

I cannot access my messages in Farm Town. It would not open for me. Please kindly fix it.
Thank you!!!

UPDATE: There was another player who had sent me a message after previous one, and I was able to click on the latter message to read and reply. But after that now I am back to the way it was, can't open the FT message to read the one who had sent before the last one. I suspect that farmer had done something to my Farm Message.

Hi Sandie,
Please try clearing your memcache (link below), then when the page of unsetting text opens close that as it is done.
If your farm is open close it. Then reopen and try again.

Hi Cherri3,

I am sorry but the game is intended to be played on computers and laptops and using it's physical keyboard to type in game.

Any kind of mobile device tends to only have access to use a virtual keyboard which is pretty basic, doesn't give you the ability to copy paste using keyboard shortcuts either, so find that those can not be used to type in the various areas within the game.

Even if you already owned something like a Bluetooth keyboard that was compatible with your device and you could link your device to it, there are still no guarantees that it would work at all or if it did work for some things that it would continue to work with every type of mobile device that there is. We certainly can't recommend to anyone that they go to any expense of buying one just for the intent of trying to see if it would work in the game.
