Hi Grumpdad,
Changing the order did not have anything to do with whether co-op quests could use gift products or not. That rule has been in place since the beginning of the co-op quests.
You can still use your gifts (tomatoes in your case) to fill your facilities and can even sell them to others farmer to farmer in trade. The only exception being in the co-op quests others cannot buy those tomatoes from you because they are from gifts.
If you wish to make a suggestion to change this please post your suggestion in the Suggestions section of the forums. You can not start a new thread in that section, but you can reply to one that fits your suggestion.

try posting an Ingredient request for needed crops, those do count towards the quests.

Hi Aussie Rae,
It was a co-op quest and buying ingredients from someone who only had gifts of that crop. You can not post ingredient requests for those. For regular quests you can post ingredient requests or use gifts if you have the Gifting Lifeline.

There seems to be no point in that, I brought the matter up in support, put the matter in the feed of the ticket which was closed without even a reply being made!

fair enough, but I know people who have not had enough of a product that others(person A) can purchase for their co-op, and after that (person B) posts an ingredient request, and the goods are sent to storage, the (person A) was able to buy those goods, whether crops etc...

Hi Aussie Rae,
That would be because Ingredient Requests are regular size boxes instead of gifts. Good point though. It was just a situation none had ever run into before that I know of, so we got clarification from the developers.

I see where you are coming from, but the first time I fill my facilities I will be back to where I was, this is a short term solution that does not address the problem, but thanks anyway, I guess we will have to wait until others get hit by this and complain, perhaps then the cause of the problem might be addressed, who knows???

we can only hope.. one thing I noticed with my own stored goods was the amounts used when doing the NCC.. they dropped alarmingly fast .. now I don't bother with the NCC, just went back to my normal method of posting facs once or twice a week.. yet I still manage to be in the top 4 of the ncc each week, which is fine with me.

I guess my problem is that I am a people player, I always leave 4 co-ops open, I work my butt off in the NCC, I purchased long fish cars to help others, I have lost count of how many fish farms, semi truck trailers etc I have. To get a message to say I had no tomato's was like getting a slap in the face which is why I posted here and complained in an effort to get the matter sorted so that others do not get caught out! I have solved it my end by selling all the gifts that can be used in facilities, it cannot happen again to me, but others will come across the problem sooner rather than later, sad but true.
