New Release -- May 21, 2010

Where are you hiding them at, behind the trees? And God bless the spreadsheet lady. She has got to be into over time.

There are quite a few places you can make a hidden garden. Just buy one then run your cursor over hidden parts of your farm. You'll be surprised where a little green square will pop up.

- what a bundle of misery you are ! - can't even enjoy playing by yourself ! - maybe it's time to get a real job LOL

WOW the anomalies presented themselves pretty early when we were planting blueberries and pineapples together - it's just a game LOL

Very funny, Moonshiner. Actually I have a "real job" -- my own computer business which keeps me quite busy with clients during the work week. Evenings and weekends? I enjoy FT when I'm not keeping up the real house and real yard.
Have a good evening.

It is and a fun game. Just sort of enjoy keeping my farm themes consistent. And if someone writes back that "consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" (or whatever that quotation is), yup -- small mind LOL

[hasleyl]

Why does everyone think they should have every single facility and that they should all be producing at maximum capacity 24 hours a day? Use the land you have to its best advantage, plan crop rotation to keep everything perking along...and get over it - LOL. I'd much rather the devs wold work on things like separating out the products from harvests in the marketplace selling tabs, and making it not go back up to the top each time you sell something. The easy stuff, yanno? I'm sure they will come up with more land soon, and hopefully more levels for those of us stuck at 80, but in the meantime....enjoy what you have.

You assumed a lot from my short message. I have been at 80 since they put it in so I have been stuck there at least as long as you and I don't play 24/7. I also don't have everything that is offered; I just don't like crowded farms and I still like farming (with crop rotation) and not just the facilities. I rarely comment on this forum and this is the reason I don't. Some people are too quick to judge.

[plumberdon]

Why can't we actually use the gas that we have been gifted and have in our gift places? Is this a glitch or familiar? Me playing this game any more will depend on your answer and I have been playing over a year now....have 4 farms total...thanks for answering, (I hope).

[sunshyndreamn]

I havbe already had to delete the things I don't use to accomadate all my factories, how about adding a factory to make maple syrup/candies and maybe a pancake/waffle shop???

[Tiffanytwirl]

I LOVE all the new stuff but as usual so many of the items require real money which I don't have. I am already at level 80 so no more level up points for farm cash either except two of my neighbors both got extra farm cash points when they got to 80. One got 100 extra! I only got 1 farm cash. Whats up with that?? Is there any way to get more? Are you adding more levels above 80? Now I have factories that require on going supplies of ketchup and pickles and an oil pump that needs a refinery, etc etc etc.....And no way to acquire them! Also now when we go to the market to sell it is really a job trying to sell some and keep other items for the factories with out starting at the top of the list every time and going down the list after every selection. Very time consuming!!! Can't we have a way to just go down the whole list and check off the items we wish to sell and sell them all at one time? Just a suggestion. I love the fishing the way it is. I noticed some want that to be an ALL fished out option. That would certainly take the fun out of fishing for sure!! LOL Who goes fishing and gets all the fish out of the whole lake at one time? Crazy!

[Texas Kid]

I love the new additions and have had to purchase the new facilities for myself and several fellow farm town friends. But... Houston we have a problem (lol) we are running out of room to place everything. By the time we add trees, new facilities such as the Oil Refinery which was HUGE, flowers etc. We are out of space to plant our crops :-( so Please give us a Farm 4 and perharps 5 :-) Would also be sweet if you guys could give more levels past 80 so we can earn Farm Cash for leveling up... You guys have done awesome...

A friend in Texas

Thanks Again

[farmerinthehay]

I'd love to see a 4th farm and also some crops for making farmcash. Like something that takes maybe a week to grow for those of us that take vacations and don't want our crops to wilt away! LOL yes I'm addicted so bad, I take my laptop along side me...

OLIVE OIL ISSUE

HI I have noticed that the olive oil is ONLY available through the factory which is bought with Farm Cash ....... so a friend of mine with no farm cash cannot make olive oil or receive it as a gift.

The ONLY means of getting olive oil is by working at other people's facilities ........ PLEASE fix this problem as it is very discriminatory to those with no money.

You can use the earn cash tab to get farmcash if you do not have the money. That is what I did. Also, the snack factory does produce things that do not need oil. However, I wish that we could also produce soybean oil in the oil factory.

[Aero 1]

DESPERATLEY NEEDED...... is separate storage for items. A separate storage for our ingredients, a separate storage for finished items in facillities, a separate storage for fish, and a separate storage for flowers. It would make going to the market to sell so much quicker and easier. :)

A sprinkler system to water flower perhaps using our coins to use it because my neighbours never water my flowers and it takes ages. I would love to buy some more flowers for my flower shop but wont because I have loads to water now and it take forever to do also more the half the flowers i am growing are not used in the flower shop it seems only about 5 different types are used so when i harvested my flowers i had loads left in my storage which then took me ages to sell cos you have to keep scrolling down and with all the sea coast fish in storage as well as the things i need to make products it took forever. I would have liked to have kept the flowers that wernt used in storage uncase you start using them in different bouqets but couldnt because it takes to long to scoll down.

Why does the wheat and corn half when you turn it into flour. I cannot make enough to keep up with the facillities and the corn takes 3 days so if you use a whole field with 990 plots on it you cant grow anything else on it for 3 days then when you harvest it turn it into cornflour you only get 445 corn which doesnt last long and other things need to be grown so I cant keep a whole farm just for corn as broccoli takes 4 days which seems to take ages.

Cheese production is way too slow its production should be speeded up. Cheese is used in so much stuff and again its impossible to keep up.

Also I would like to be able to invite a neighbour to help me with my facillities rather than any of them be able to work them as im finding people who I have as neighbours who never help out on my farm such as watering flowers or plowing or harvesting seem to be the first to take everything it seems as though they are waiting by there computers and bam as soon as my help wanted goes on they are there and its all gone and its the same people all the time I would like to be able to share it out. its also would be nice to be able to say lock some facillities I would like to be able to fill them up then have help. some you can fill up quicker than others but you need the dairy with the cheese in done everyday so when you ask for help all the facillities get done and it would be nice to be able to lock some so they cant be done. Perhaps it would be good if only neighbours that water your flowers can help at the facillities :)

I have spoken to some of my friends and they feel the same way about all the above as me these are really annoying little problems and I am sure a lot of people feel the same. I love this game and am a total addict spend a lot of time on here but i dread doing any of the above please please could you look into this. Thank you for all your hard work:)

Can you please explain to me how having farm cash item is discriminating against some people. Everyone in the game has the opportunity to obtain farm cash by three ways, by leveling up, doing offers, or buying the farm cash. No one is prevented from obtaining farm cash so the developers are not discriminating against anyone by intruding farm cash items into the game. That is how they make their money to keep the game running.

[dondeyne]

While I understand the developers must have some way to pay their bills, those of us who just can't gain the farm cash to buy all the facilities are at a disadvantage. If our at level 80 and used your farm cash before facilities were invented, it's really difficult to come up with 30 or so to buy a new facility. How about a coin option at a really hi price.

Speaking of oil, there's also corn oil it seem we could be making.

Any change we'll ever get to grin our own coffee. This seems to be a huge oversight. Either that or the questions about it are just being ignored. And I don't belive our magniicent developers would be that way. GRIN!

I really don't see how being at a level 80 puts you at a disadvantage. I have been an 80 for some time now but I had saved my farm cash and not bought flags, etc. I then was able to use it for facilities. When I ran out I used "pay pal". I hope they don't raise the levels for awhile, I enjoy being at the top and don't want to plant raspberries again to get there.

The way it puts a level person at a disadvantage is that most people who had been on the game that long, had no idea facilities or anything else like this was coming so spent their farmcash on decorative items. People who are at a low level buy with full knowledge of all the facilities out and can choose with more knowledge. It is amazing to me that some people can not see this. And using paypal is not an option for lots of people because they just cannot afford to spend money on online games. I hadn't spent alot of my farmcash and was able to buy some facilities when they came out. However, it was just because I didn't see anything I wanted. I was at the top level and had nothing to shoot for anymore, so bought a lake and another small item just to decorate. I can totally see how many people may have done the same thing, and they are definitely at a disadvantage to newer players who knew of all the facilities before spending their farmcash.

That said, if you happen to have a neighbor who has definitely quit teh game and has some farmcash, you could ask them to buy you a facility as they are able to choose send when going to the ingame store and they can choose to send you the facility. I have a couple of family members who bought me a facility as they simply never plan to play the game, so will never use it.

[dottyF]

I play 4 other games besides FT and I have not seen one yet that doesnt offer things for sale instead of coins. Im not spending money on some of the other games and it doesnt bother me because I can live without the stuff and still play. There are so many ways to play ft and enough to do without spending money that could keep a person busy 24/7. Actually its the only game Ive seen that after a few clicks you can do much else. I do get extra stuff on FT but if I didnt want to they have given plenty facilities for coin purchase too.
We are at level 30 a long time. They came 60 and then came 80. So I dont see a surprise coming when we go to level 100 with more decorative items added or see more facilities added. There will still be people starting at the beginning of the game and will have even more items available for them than I had when I started.
Thats what happens when the game continues to grow.

[calliopejane]

...possible reduce wheat growing time down to 1 day as i cant keep up with it...
Or make the wheat-to-flour ratio 1:1 instead of 2:1. Like the sugar is. I too have trouble making enough flour.

[calliopejane]

And how about we make a separate "whining about items costing farm cash" thread, so that can cease to clutter up other discussions. It's really getting tiresome.

[earlgray]

It's nice that my flower shop, which I've had for months, can sell flower bunches, but I don't know if I will be harvesting flowers much. Most of my flowers are decoration, and I don't want to see them reduced to piles of dirt. When you harvest flowers in real life, you don't take the plant down to nothing. Of course this is also true for some of the other crops such as blueberries and raspberries. And I definitely won't be hiring others to harvest them, because if I did grow flowers to harvest, it would only be a portion of those on my farm, not all of them, and there is no way to limit which ones are harvested when hiring.

It's also fairly click-intensive to harvest flowers. 9 flowers fit into one regular plot, and if you use the 4-harvester to harvest your own crops, that's 36 clicks to harvest flowers as compared to one click for the same amount of space taken by crops. However you don't need to plow and replant, so I guess that changes the ratio to 12:1, and the profit from flowers is higher for the more expensive flowers (e.g. 9 red roses sell for 9x85=765 coins vs. 512 for one plot of pineapples, and in the flower shop, 8 red roses make 2 batches which sells for 1400 coins, a pretty good deal).

These are simply intended as comments, not as complaints or criticism.

Your so right Calliope..... I did find a solution to my FC woes though...... I am doing a spring cleaning of sorts in my house and decided hey why not have a yard sale or take stuff to the local flea market... Use that money for some flower seeds for my yard and i desperately need a new grill for this summer too so why not use the left over cash i make to get some farm cash yay me.....

[PattiB]

The biggest issue is space. Would love to implement these new items the large coast and the refinery but just no space to do so without destroying a farm in the process.

I would like to see our storage of harvest simplified. Finished products could have a separate storage vs. products that could be used for further uses.

.

Thanks, you just saved me a lot of time typing my thoughts out. My farms look horrendous now, trying to fit all of this stuff in. I feel like we're sacrificing the looks of our farms to try and cram all the things we'd need to sustain even 1/2 of these facilities. I'd love to go back to having nice looking farms, but until we have a few more farms, that won't happen.

I still don't have many of them as I refuse to purchase coins, and for some reason, I'm not getting awarded the coins I should be, even after I file the complaints. :mad:

[ScottLanter]

Oh well, momentary excitement and love! LOL

Well, good grief! You still got one free farm cash. :rolleyes:

Where is it written that you must have every facility that's available? It's not! And, if the developers are going to continue adding facilities, you will eventually have to choose which facilities you want to have a part of your farms, and which ones to leave dormant. Facilities are no different than other items for the farm. Just because there may be 3 or 4 types of barns, it doesn't mean you have to have all of them. Same goes with houses, and other items. You will find, that, even if we are given the opportunity to purchase a 4th farm, it still will not be enough to grow the amount of crops necessary to produce every product, every day.

[earlgray]

The sea coasts currently only work right on the top and right sides of the farms. Please add coasts that will work on the left and bottom. That is where I would want to put one; also many people have 3D-effect farms, which generally go from a high point on the upper right, so the sea coasts would only make sense on those farms on the bottom or left.

Oh darn, they never wrote that in the FT by laws? Jeez, I hoped they had! ;)

I haven't added all of them, like I said. Some of the ones I'd love to have, I just don't have the FT points for, therefore, I don't have them. But I would REALLY like to move my cows and such to one farm, so my visitors/workers don't get lagged all to Hades and back. Space has become a critical point, as you can tell by the multitude of posts elsewhere. This isn't news. It's something that's been said for over a year. (which is why they keep adding farms, I'm guessing!)

Space will always be a critical point with people in this game. As it is typical with humans, they're never happy with what they have. If the devs would allow everyone a 4th farm tomorrow, I can guarantee you it wouldn't be 24 hours until the whining would begin for a 5th farm. As you do in real life, utilize the space you have, and get rid of what you don't really need.

I wanted a 3rd and 4th farm before the facilities came out. I want one farm for decorations, one for crop patterns, one for a forest (I know you can plant under trees but didn't want the hassle), and one for crate or flower designs. Now I need at least 5 farms because I need one just for the facilities. :D But you are right people will always want more land in the game.

MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH.....

Going giddy with the last update...and the feed thing has been fixed...WOOT! For some reason that stopped working for me over the last few weeks.

Two words: SEAFOOD RESTAURANT

Been fishin' like I'm part of the Deadliest Catch team....

Haven't gone back to planting underneath things yet, but since I'm setting at level 80, I won't worry about it until new levels are introduced...

Ah, what a fun game this continues to be....

[CynthiaSue]

The purpose of the forum is to say what you like and what you don't like, not really to say I don't like complainers. The complainers are actually doing what they are suppose to do. They are saying what they don't like about the game, not what they don't like about what others say. You, on the other hand are saying what you don't like about what another person says, definitely not a purpose of the forum. And I, am probably also, trying to explain the purpose of the forum, and that is probably also not the purpose of this thread. The complainers belong and the praisers. We probably don't.

I'm itching for farm #4 as well, mainly for crops and trees. That said, the tightness of space did force me to be a bit more creative and rearrange my farms after this last update. And you know what, I like my farms better now than I did before, so being forced to be creative is a good thing in my book. I have all facilities except for the oil refinery and stone windmill (don't need them) and am managing OK (oh and by the way, I have yet to purchase any FC....got them all through offers and saved up FC from leveling up to level 80). I don't stress out about keeping the facilities at 100% production...just not possible with only one farm dedicated to crops. I am able to produce something in every facility every day right now and that's fine by me, even if I can't always produce every item in every facility every day.

Love this game! Keep up the good work devs. A 4th farm and new levels would be fantastic though.

[farmermuff]

Some new levels would be nice. With all the new ways to earn XP before you know it half the people playing the game will be at level 80. I am also not a fan of all the new facilities. We just dont have the space for them. Why couldnt the sandwich, pizza, and taco shop have been one shop? They all make like 5 items a piece and they all cost coins. Why not just make it one big fast food resturant or something. I feel the same way about the watermill and the windmill. Why cant one of them just produce both regular flour and corn flour?

I guess what I am trying to say is, its time for FT to start developing the existing facilities more. And start making some of these facilities that only produce one item, produce multiple items. Like I am pretty sure there will be a coffee grinder some time in the future. One of the existing facilities needs to be able to do that, instead of there being a new facility for it.

If you guys are afraid you wont make money off of it, just charge for the right to produce that item. Like if you created something like a general factory that produces, sugar, chocolate liquor, olive oil, corn flour and wheat. And you want to add peanut oil and ground coffee to it, just charge coins or FC to "upgrade" the facility to produce those items. It beats having to buy all these new facilities and then having to delete, sell, or store them when a nicer one comes along.

Seven houses on one farm now? And, you want a 4th farm? LOL!

CORRECTION: Eight houses! Ugh!

CORRECTION: Eight houses! Ugh!

LOL..well, sure, but the people have got to live somewhere, right? I suppose I could make a tent city, but that would get chilly in the winter. Farm #4 would be dedicated to crops since my farmtown minions now have nice places to live and eat. The employment rate is dropping however with only 1 farm to work at. I'd hate for some of those houses to go into foreclosure. ;)

Of course this is also true for some of the other crops such as blueberries and raspberries. And I definitely won't be hiring others to harvest them, because if I did grow flowers to harvest, it would only be a portion of those on my farm, not all of them, and there is no way to limit which ones are harvested when hiring.
I don't have the Flower Shop, but as I'm understanding it, the flowers do grow back after being harvested. That cost to sale price on the roses does sound lake a good profit margin.

Wow got 96 units of fuel from the refinery when I refueled this morning this one's got to be the winner!

[SueW170]

Space will always be a critical point with people in this game. As it is typical with humans, they're never happy with what they have. If the devs would allow everyone a 4th farm tomorrow, I can guarantee you it wouldn't be 24 hours until the whining would begin for a 5th farm. As you do in real life, utilize the space you have, and get rid of what you don't really need.
LOL How true. I was browsing a few older posts last evening and sure enough, "more space, more space" was a pretty consistent theme.

[SueW170]

[QUOTE=farmermuff;3555602]Some new levels would be nice. With all the new ways to earn XP before you know it half the people playing the game will be at level 80. I am also not a fan of all the new facilities. We just dont have the space for them. Why couldnt the sandwich, pizza, and taco shop have been one shop? Agree that a multi-functional restaurant would be a good option. Perhaps not instead of, but in addition to, just as there are different type barns. I know, barns aren't functional, but my comparison is to having choices.

I guess what I am trying to say is, its time for FT to start developing the existing facilities more. And start making some of these facilities that only produce one item, produce multiple items. Agree. This concept applies to not only the food shops, but also to other facilities. The Diary Plant could have also produced ice cream as many small dairies do. The bakery could "serve" freshly ground coffee and more baked items. More end products could be added to the Preserves Factory. Etc. This could give players options to acquire specialty facilities or make greater use of the basic ones.

If you guys are afraid you wont make money off of it, just charge for the right to produce that item. Like if you created something like a general factory that produces, sugar, chocolate liquor, olive oil, corn flour and wheat. And you want to add peanut oil and ground coffee to it, just charge coins or FC to "upgrade" the facility to produce those items.
Interesting suggestion.Though I'm happy with what I have now, this could be an option for the developers to consider.

[PaulaKay]

So you made all these changes. But what happened to refueling?? I went to refuel and all 10 tanks got sent to storage and I can only sell them. Why?????? grrrrrrrrrrrrr

[snow_angel]

So you made all these changes. But what happened to refueling?? I went to refuel and all 10 tanks got sent to storage and I can only sell them. Why?????? grrrrrrrrrrrrr

Same thing happened to me. I had one gift of fuel and when I went to use it it went into my storage where my only option was to sell it. I also ask Why???

Nevermind I found the answer in help and support. I should've looked there in the first place

[Pisces4444]

The large seashore doesn't get along with things near it. I can't click on trees or crops if they are too close. I have to always hide the seashore.

[CynthiaSue]

It would be nice if we could sell our meat from the meat truck and even our produce to our neighbors for the same price as we sell it back to farmtown. This would help them out and give me a reason to have meat delivered that I don't have a facility to use it in.

[Crash Acres]

I just bought a Oil Refinery and when I put it in my guy went over and did his thing to build it, but it wasnt there, I went back to the facebook home page and went back to the application and the oil Refinery STILL ISNT THERE AND MY CASH IS GONE! GET IT BACK TO ME NOW! Thanks

Make sure "show buildings" is checked, clear your cache. And if that doesn't work, you need to link your farm.

is the word "Tacos" reversed on the taco shop?? or is that me being dyslexic??
I rotated my Taco Shop. it seems it is reversed if placed one direction and not the other LOL

Reversed only if you rotate. Same thing with the "welcome" mat with the manor. The people on the other side will see the sign correctly though :)

[Chickadee16]

You could turn our lemon crops into LEMONADE added to existing JUICE facility.
You could add lemon drops to existing SNACKS facilities.
You could make lemon cake and lemon pies (use eggs for meringe) and lemon bars in the existing BAKERY.
I'm not sure why none of the developers thought lemonade, lemon pie, lemon bars, lemon cake, and lemon drops are not popular. I could store my lemons and make all of them without adding a single facility....

only saw this issue partially responded to...Thanks, Raul!

[lavanah]

How about a castle, I have 64 million and could use a castle to put all that loot in. Thanks to all the factories, boy do that make coins.

[loriw]

Rather than a 4th farm, I would like the option of enlarging the ones we already have.

[Annette55]

With the semi truck, you can purchase hot dog sausage, pepperoni, ham, chicken and meat for anywhere from 350 - 500 coins and 5 fuel units per 5 units of meat (except hot dog sausage - 15 units). They are delivered at a rate of 5 units per hour (except hot dog sausage - 15) and you can order as much as you like, provided you have coins and fuel. You can then either sell them for a profit or use them in facilities. This way you are not dependent on neighbors for them.

Thanks for that description, Steve. I did notice, just this am, the little question mark thingy that explains stuff. So I did read that there, but I honestly don't recall seeing those there before today. Maybe I failed to notice... :(

And yes, being able to order stuff is a godsend, since it is almost impossible to get what you need from less than attentive neighbors who keep sending ketchup and flour and stuff you can make yourself, but then won't send what you need in any kind of consistent manner. I sure wish the developers would give us some way to get ALL the things we need for production that we simply can't beg, plead, whimper or even arm twist our neighbors into giving us. I hate to think what my neighbors must think when every time I send a gift, I always tell them what I need in return. When I don't though, I not only don't get production necessities, but I also get bunnies, dogs, potted plants, and all that other unnecessary **** that was kinda cute back at the start, but after about 500 of them, really aren't.

I have 50+ neighbors, and maybe 5 that will actually send what I ask for. That kind of ratio makes depending on the neighbors a very annoying part of this game. I actually think it is kind of thoughtless and very close to rude of the developers to put us at the whimsical (edited the actual word I would prefer to use) nature of neighbors who don't seem to care.

[snow_angel]

I wish they sold the semi truck for coins instead of farm cash. I have 30 neighbors but probably only 7 of them even play FT. Of those only 4-5 ever send gifts.

[Tony D]

[FarmTownNewbie]

Actually the Lemonade Stand could be a facility, how fun that would be! I have lemon trees around mine and "pretend" to give out lemonade.

Thanks for all the fun new stuff, FarmTown. I like to change stuff around and try new designs, and can't figure out how to use the coastline properly. I'll go see the photos on the other message board and see what the clever farmers are doing.

can't find the anwer to my question anywhere so thought i would try here. Do any oil wells over one produce as well? Likeid you have two dairy barns only one produces? So if I have three oil wells will all three produce?

[ScottLanter]

You can add one oil well to each farm, and they will all produce. There is no added effect if you add more than one to each farm. So, in other words, one well on each farm will produce 3 barrels of oil every 6 hours.

[Tony D]

So if I have three oil wells will all three produce?Hi, if you have more than one facility/shed/coop on the same farm then only one will work. You can have a dairy shed/facility on another farm (assuming you have more than one farm) and they both will work. I am not certain about the oils wells but I suspect they would work as well - so long as they are on different farms.

ARE WE EVER GOING TO GET TO MOVE OUR ANIMALS FROM FARM TO FARM , OR PUT THEM IN STORAGE ?????? That would be a great Update !!!!!

[Haystack Holly]

Expanding existing farms is a really good idea. Would keep us busy redesigning BUT it would make the window we work in a little awkward and full screen doesn't work for all of us. Developers would need to make that window bigger I think.

[chinds97]

Not only do we need a 4th farm but we seroiusly need to have more levels added and not just 20 at a time.. there are a large number of us that have been stuck there since the added levels without even working.. please add more levels larger farms and the ability to move the animals to another farm

[aphrill]

Hi! How can i get the corn flour? Thanks!

[snow_angel]

Hi! How can i get the corn flour? Thanks!

You need to plant corn then use the water mill to make the corn flour

[aphrill]

yes!! Thank you very much!!

[chinds97]

Is this true or not, someone in market place said they were on level 93??Mary

No it is not true the person is a LIAR! the hoghest level is 80 which a large number of us have been stuck at since day 1 and it's just unfair to us that we can't get farm cash for level ups and have to pay for these facilites.. we need new levels and not 20 at a time and we also need more land expansions with all the new facilites

[Roxannie]

has anyone noticed that the sign on top the taco place is backwards, rofl :confused:

i told u a million times not to exaggerate rofl rofl:eek:

Surely the orientation of the sea coasts is the wrong way around, unless you place them on the right or top sides of your farm (which doesnt really make much design sense) then the sea is the wrong side of the rocks

Could the devs look at switching the orientation or at least offering a 4 way orientation?

[ScottLanter]

has anyone noticed that the sign on top the taco place is backwards, rofl :confused:

Yeah, the wording in the window is also backwards. But, it depends which angle you use. If you rotate the building, the signage will appear normal.

[calliopejane]

I really wish the taco shop made more things with the corn flour. Only one item uses corn flour (and also requires a LOT of other ingredients; I'm often missing something). Everything else uses wheat flour, which (as several people have noted) is already hard to keep enough on hand. So how about some less fancy hard tacos? or taco salad bowls made of corn flour? or chips & salsa, maybe even chips & guacamole - we have avocado trees!

If you have neighbors that no longer play the game, why dont you see if they can send it to you? Recently thats how I have been getting my FC facilities. I've got several neighbors who keep jumping to the highest level without playing the game and they are collecting FC for it. I just get them to use their FC to send me stuff. Ask your friends who no longer play, how much FC they have. Chances are one of them has enough to buy it and send it to you.

I happen to be one of those who maximized levels early and now my problem is I have boocoo coins on hand but no farmcash to buy the new items in the facility area. Is there any way to trade my coins for farmcash? Else I will never be able to utilize the facility items that demand farmcash...please help.

[hansen2433]

17978 i think i got to wait a cuple of days before i rone out of fuel :D

[hansen2433]

DUH on me, LOL! TY so much for assisting. That ROCKS! Now if we can help the ones who do not have FC to buy the 3rd plot of land that would be great. I've been telling my friends to give it time and maybe the option would be there soon for them to buy it with coins for 3 mill, LOL!

it has been so you can bye it with farm town coins for a some time becurse i did it :D

[snow_angel]

Same here I bought my 3rd farm with the coins. There was an option where you could buy with either coins or farm cash. You just had to be at a certain level to be able to get the 3rd farm with the coins. With the farm cash you could get it no matter what level you were on

[msdymond]

Agreed, I had been planning to tuck an oil refinery away in a corner somewhere and then found it was absolutely huge :(

I was going to do the same thing, Helen, until I saw the size.

BTW, Helen, I sent you a Private Message, but it seems to have disappeared. It never showed up in my sent box, anyway. Did you receive it?

True. With one other requirement. You'll need 30 FT Neighbors if you don't already have that many.

That is because it is Irish Limonade :)

LOL For sure that must be the explanation :)

[TsunamiVince]

Seriously I agree with this. Bought one put it down on the farm and it looked ridiculous.

Not being able to change the sea coast border is idiotic. There is absolutely no doubt about that. How many people have open borders on the top of their farms? Why can't we rotate these to have them border on any edge? I had a perfect spot for my sea coast but ended up cramming it in a corner because I can't get the edge on either one of the lower borders.

[♫Tiki♫]

How are people underplanting now? I hide everything but it wont let me plow any more. a long time ago I could do it.

cant underplow either :(

[Tony D]

yeah, was trying to do that , my neigbour gave me instructions to do that but it didnt work, she has all trees palnted on crops and is able to plow, me not :( sniffles* sniffles*I will try and help . To plant trees on top of crops (there are different ways to do it but this is how I do it)

Trees must be planted first - on bare ground - if you have crops planted where you want your trees then wait till you harvest them then delete them :eek:

Plant your trees

Hide your trees (preference menu, wrench icon)

refresh your farm (go to another farm, the inn the MP or press play)

When you go back to your farm you should have clear field where the trees were. Pick an item up on your farm and move it (anything on your farm will do) This is a very important step

You should now be able to plough and plant the clear fields. (this took me a couple of tries to master it)

Un-hide your trees :)

The process for planting under buildings is the same (except don't delete anything)

Give this a try

Its little stuff like this that makes me wonder if the developers actually play the game that they sell. I sometimes feel like some of the basic things that we end up clamoring for or complaining about would never be problems if the developers actually played the game like we do. Like selling in the market. How all of your goods are in one storage unit and every time you sell something you have to by pass all the stuff you dont want to sell to get to the stuff that you do want to sell. It takes me nearly a half hour to go through and sell all my finished products, without selling stuff I didnt want to sell. Or how when your in the market selling you get 100 requests for work. Or if you are in there to hire there is no way to tell who is there just selling, who is there to hire, and who is there looking for work (if they are not begging). And I come across a room multiple times a day where are just not talking. It doesnt take long to become annoyed by some of this stuff. And these are things that the devs would have caught if they played the game like we do.

[dottyF]

You can go offline at the market so that helps stop the hiring requests when you are there to sell.
It is very time consuming trying to sell items tho. Maybe there needs to be one for finished products and another for stuff that you need . Or little box where you can just scroll thru and check mark what you want to sell and sell all at one time. Having to scroll thru each time you sell one is a pain in the butt.

[roxy1958]

If you want more out of your flowers,allow them to come up to harvest,make sure they need water( about three rain drops) ,harvest flowers then water them and they will come back and you can harvest them again,I found this out by accident :)

[scrappinmagic]

I'm with everyone else.....we could really use a 4th farm!

EXCELLENT suggestion! Please post this on the Feedback forum. The devs need to see this one...and put it into effect.

[DARLENEW]

The upgrades are great, however, I did not buy any of the new facilities, and got rid of 2-3 that I had,,,I have 59 million coins, and already have everything there is in the store, most in storage because I ran out of room,,,,we need some more houses and decorations to work with,,,,I am at a standstill, all I do is plant, harvest, re-plant, harvest, and work in the facilities, which is getting to be rather a chore when there is nothing more to work for....loved FT, but it is getting stagnant...pls give us something to work for other than facilities...PLEASE!!!:rolleyes::rolleyes::rolleye s:

[servocrow]

OH MY just went to refuel for the first time with proceeds from my refinery, my level, and visiting, (with zero thanks to my non-gifting friends most of the time)...

23,840 credits!!! WOOT!!!! That refinery was SOOOOOO worth it....

I love this little game.

:D

[Textmum]

The refinery is great, I had 18,000 units, which meant I could use all the big machines and the lorry and not worry about fuel!

Adding my vote to those who are requesting a way to separate the items we want to keep and items we want to sell. Haven't mistakenly sold anything yet, but the fact that the list of items in storage comes back to the top after each thing sold could be changed and would improve the functioning of the game.

[SunnyD]

LOL i have mistakenly sold things a few times duh me ... should say look better but. when you scroll what you have to sell things tend to move on you and oops just sold all my bread i had been making for a while ... grrrrrrr. but it's only coins and just an aspect of the game i guess.........

I've only accidently sold something I didnt want to sell once and it was chocolate liquor but I make so much of it that I wasnt to upset.

This isnt FT's fault, its mine but one day last week, I walked away from the computer while the market was open and my 2 year old started clicking and sold almost everything in my storage unit. lol

This isnt FT's fault, its mine but one day last week, I walked away from the computer while the market was open and my 2 year old started clicking and sold almost everything in my storage unit. lol

LOL that is so funny..... I let my BF's son play on my farm in offline mode he is only 11.... you know trust issues with strangers online. but the kid loves to sell and buy things so i made him an account on another game so he can play.. no more getting on my farm.......

Its little stuff like this that makes me wonder if the developers actually play the game that they sell. I sometimes feel like some of the basic things that we end up clamoring for or complaining about would never be problems if the developers actually played the game like we do. Like selling in the market. How all of your goods are in one storage unit and every time you sell something you have to by pass all the stuff you dont want to sell to get to the stuff that you do want to sell. It takes me nearly a half hour to go through and sell all my finished products, without selling stuff I didnt want to sell. Or how when your in the market selling you get 100 requests for work. Or if you are in there to hire there is no way to tell who is there just selling, who is there to hire, and who is there looking for work (if they are not begging). And I come across a room multiple times a day where are just not talking. It doesnt take long to become annoyed by some of this stuff. And these are things that the devs would have caught if they played the game like we do.

Hmmmmm - excellent idea !! May all the devs be made to actually sit and PLAY the game for a week as we do, then get back into their developing. As you say, I'll bet we'd see some major, more practical changes very quickly.

However, this should already be happening because as far as I know the moderators are players as well ..... so assuming they are passing the problems on to the devs ..... why are the fixes not happening? I guess the devs don't communicate with them either. I sooooooo wish they would stop being quite so fixated with making more garish facilities and get back to some of the basics again.

Oh well, I guess we should all be thankful for the moment that the wretched little gift reminding gnome has taken a far lower profile than before ..... though I find it hard to be grateful after it took months of pleading to get rid of his way too high profile. My feeling is more like 'thanks, it's about time too!'

Well, if they PAID ATTENTION to all of us beta testers, and respected our knowledge of the game, there wouldn't be a need for them to actually play the game.

[sharpem]

Try being philanthropic and gift factories and house etc to your friends.

[msdymond]

You can go offline at the market so that helps stop the hiring requests when you are there to sell.
It is very time consuming trying to sell items tho. Maybe there needs to be one for finished products and another for stuff that you need . Or little box where you can just scroll thru and check mark what you want to sell and sell all at one time. Having to scroll thru each time you sell one is a pain in the butt.

It would be a big help if it simply didn't go all the way back up to the top when you sell something.

[snow_angel]

I agree that is such a nuisance.

He was so proud of himself. He thought he had done me a big favor. lol

I think there are a lot of kids that play this game. Probably more than most people realize.

It would be a big help if it simply didn't go all the way back up to the top when you sell something.

Thats a start. For both storage units. The one for the market and your farm.

[Tony D]

It would be a big help if it simply didn't go all the way back up to the top when you sell something.I would be happy if all items that did not have the ?box were at the top as the ones without the box are the only ones I sell.

[HelenJS22]

My friends 4 year old grandson plays with her and absolutely loves it. He badgered her for ages until she could afford to buy A BIG TRUCK to put on the farm. She and I hid our leprechauns for ages after St Patrick's Day for him to find. It didn't take too long before we simply couldn't out smart him anymore :D

[suzy2z]

I agree that the Market needs some spiffing up. It takes so long to scroll down and choose what you want to sell and then wait, wait, wait for it to refresh to choose the next item. I have sold the wrong item by being impatient. Maybe have a check box on each item to sell, check them as you scroll through and then click SELL to do all at once.

Wouldn't it be great also to be able to produce ground coffee from your harvest. It could be an addition to the chocolate facility to save space.

Why not make walnut oil and/or peanut oil made in the same facility as olive oil?

The game really is much easier and more fun than when I started playing a year ago.

Will the seacoast go all the way to the edge of a farm if you first put down dirt paths?

[Tony D]

Will the seacoast go all the way to the edge of a farm if you first put down dirt paths?yes............

[SunnyD]

selling at the market is a challenge.... but if you have a sell all at once thing..... not so sure that would work cause we want to keep some items like coffee hoping for a grinder soon.... or maybe not sell our corn till we can afford or find a place to put our water mill etc...... plus we can't check to be sure we are getting correctly paid then unless we add everything we have to sell that would take as long as selling and scrolling... know what i mean......

I don't know about you but the items without the ?box are the ones I want to sell.

What a GREAT idea! My 4 year old grandson loves looking at my farm too! I am going to play the hide game with him. Thanks! We will have fun with that.

It was fun. We started out with easy ones, and ended up hiding it behind things that don't hide at all, but he worked that out, knew how to look really closely for the tiniest of clues and woe betide me if I forgot to hide my leprechaun before I closed down for the night :D

Tony do you have a seacoast on a farm? or do you know of anyone who has so that I can check it out. I've tested a little without actually buying yet, and wondered if the dirt path trick would work.

You can overlay them using paths etc. I have put them in storage for now (hoping to put them on the 4th Farm)

LOL - Do you have an 'optimistic' box in your storage ?? Thank you. :)

that sounds so cute... have to try that with my friends little girl....

[TsunamiVince]

8. The frequency of the Major asking for gifts on the game has been reduced considerably, you should not see it more than 1 or 2 times per day.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.


[B][Update: Renamed Dolfin to Mahi Mahi to avoid confusions]


Dolfin = DOLPHIN. We do not eat Flipper! We do not hunt Flipper! Oh, "HAWAIAN" is spelled "HAWAIIAN" and cranberries grow on BUSHES NOT TREES.

[lauriellen]

I'd be happy for now with a third farm, if Farm Town would eliminate the requirement for 30 neighbors, due to the glitch that deleted a bunch of neighbors for lots of people. With all these gigantic facilities, I'd like to put them on a third farm so I can get some of my stuff out of storage on my first farm (second farm is just for crops).

[lydzharvestgeek]

too bad the Flower Shop doesn't include a bouquet using Sunflower crops- would look nice with zinneas &/or poppies...

[Tony D]

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.

[susan gardner jimison]

just bought a pump and refinery for my son, how do you get people to work it like the other plants.

[phyllis.niese]

When are we going to see new levels? With the new facilities, we need more levels to earn the farm cash and increase our farm sizes!!!!

[Double T Dude Ranch]

just bought a pump and refinery for my son, how do you get people to work it like the other plants.

The pump makes crude oil, but no one can help with that. It's when you take the crude oil to the oil refinery that they can help. There is a produce faster button, or when you have other facilities going, it will pop up too with them.

Ummm.... how do we fuel our equipment now? When you click on them they just go into storage for sale.

Or if you just leave them in your gift box, you can refuel that way when you click on map, and then the fuel station :)

I love the sea coast additions!!! PLEASE can I have a lighthouse for my seashore??? I have traveled all over seeing them and collecting the miniatures of many different ones but one for my Farm sea would be awesome!!!!!

[snow_angel]

Good idea. You need to put this in the feedback and suggestion

[bagoshen]

Really love all the new stuff but sure could use another farm. I Love Farmtown.

Awwww you beat me to it.

[kaj daniels]

Yes, we need more land but also the people that are at level 80 should be able to buy items with their coins instead of FC...PLEASE!

[msphillips88]

I have a suggestion: for the fish, maybe a restaurant or seafood store? I think that would be awesome and we can use our fish for something, otherwise it is getting boring fishing just to sell them, it takes too much time with all the ponds, lakes, rivers and now my new seashore. Also a 4th farm would be the ultimate upgrade. Love the game! Thanks for all you have already done!

[Valdoe]

It is pretty bad. People sitting on lv 80 cannot earn more cash dollars and people on lower levels have a chance to buy some great facilities. We should have a money exchange facilities eg 5mil coins = 1 Cash Coin, 10 mil = 3 FC, 20 mil= 8 FC etc

Great game but not an even playing feild

Great game but not an even playing feildTo be fair Valdoe, those of us on level 80 have already got the Farm Cash from leveling up. Those on lower levels are still trying to earn it.

As for a coin to Farm Cash conversion while it would be great I think the idea of Farm Cash is a way for Slashkey to make money - they wont make any money out of allowing us to convert coins to Farm Cash. Still it would be nice

I like the rare lotto idea where just occasionally our 'win' as we log on could shock the socks off us and be in Farm Cash instead of coins. That would certainly keep people coming back, and I'm sure it wouldn't kill them to do it some times.

[driverdave]

I really don't see how being at a level 80 puts you at a disadvantage. I have been an 80 for some time now but I had saved my farm cash and not bought flags, etc. I then was able to use it for facilities. When I ran out I used "pay pal". I hope they don't raise the levels for awhile, I enjoy being at the top and don't want to plant raspberries again to get there.

plant raspberrys.......yucky horrible hard to harvest things.....lol if farmers cant make a lvl a day from 3 good farms and facility production theres something badly wrong......

[Daone469]

how about fixing the problem of neighbors disssappearing? I should have 27 close to the upgrades for land on the third farm I paid real cash for. But the neighbors I lost in the flub up can not be regained no matter how I go about it adding them again does not work, sending invites does not work. I worked hard to get and keep these neighbors now I can work their farms when they pop up but they do not count on fuel levels as having worked at friends farms. i don't want to invest 50 dollars just to get to the biggest size on farm 3. Help with this issue please.

[Saylorgirl]

I have played for well over a year we didn't have 3 good farms and facilities I had one farm! We couldn't even plow for anyone else to earn extra points. It is much easier now to level up. I planted forever to get to 80!

[steven2234racing]

thanks for the updates but can u update us to a farm 4 now and a new level upgrade i been on 80 for ever and can u make it so people can trade some of there coins for green dollers some people dont have pay pal like me and all the new factorys are costing cash that i dont got

[nickythenutter]

A fourth farm would be fab! also seperate storage for our harvested ingredients so they can go seperate from the produce we want to sell!

still love farmtown tho xxx

[alemap]

Love all the new stuff. Great work!!!! Could use more land though. Mot enough room to plant and put facilities.

[dottyF]

My bd is Tuesday. All I want for it is a F4.

[farmermuff]

Yippy!!!!!!!!!!! The storage unit doesnt reset, every time you sell something anymore. Either someone is listening or I really like this glitch. ;)

Thanks, TPTB!

[jmdoda4438@comcast.net]

Thank you devs it so much easier to go to market now and sell the products!!

[Saylorgirl]

I have my 4th farm! Woo Hoo!!! Great updates!! Thank you . . . thank you . . .

[Saylorgirl]

My bd is Tuesday. All I want for it is a F4.

Happy Birthday early!!! Enjoy your new farm!!
