New Release -- May 5th, 2012

[maggiel29]

Perhaps to satisfy everyone, a square path could be made to use as a layering tool. The dirt paths can then be made to sit below items again and EVERYONE will be happy......it's just a thought.


Now that is a brilliant idea - a separate square "layering block" - you dont have to call it a path and that would avoid confusion. The dirt paths and stone paths could then be non sinking and everyone would be happy.

[ImTznU]

Ohhhh I am so excited about this news!!!! I can't wait to be able to overlap items again!!!! WOW this is super! Thank you so much Raul and Devs, for not only listening but also such a QUICK response back!! LOL Now I need more storage space for items! I have capped out!

I think also that having duplicate of those items is a good idea, and could call one set Non-Sinking stone/dirt path?? Or as others have suggested just create a new path just for the use of being able to overlap items.

This is just awesome!!! And has once again made this the most fun game for creativity!! LOVE IT! Thank you again!

[tanglaw]

ive noticed that there's another minigame coming up and ive read a couple of posts (not here though in other threads) and it seems like there are people who are actually enjoying the minigames and thats cool..but is it really just me who finds them a little troublesome especially when i try to move around my farm and click on things because almost everytime the mouse hovers and even just for a quick second the minigame tab slides up and it starts loading and completely messes up what im doing :(..is there anyway for the devs to perhaps just have players click on that section first before it appears instead of having it slide up everytime the cursor hovers?

other than that i really the love the game..and i look forward to more developments in the future..thank you! :D

[servocrow]

I just wanted to thank the Mods and the Devs for the quick reaction to the path requests. I was going to work around the issue on my train farm, but by the time I got the farm to the size I wanted, the paths were changed back.

Thanks for making this THE best game on FB!!

[maggiel29]

Ooh I just had a terrible fright!! I thought my Passion Fruit Crop had withered when it isnt even fully grown yet. Its the canes to support the plants. Is there anyway they can be a lighter brown/tan perhaps - just a thought.
Also - My little engine is tired having to go in reverse in order to go in the other direction as FT doesnt have a turntable yet. Can they be rotating soon please?
And while Im at it - we really need bridges, crossings, signals, and other bits and bobs to go with the trains and tracks.
Moaning aside - I am just so impressed with the speed with which you responded to the path problem.

StoneFace, you think flattery will get you further than jokes? :D :D

I hope so ;)

[carolann43]

I have no idea where to put my comment/complaint. It won't let me open a new thread. But if the people who layer/lap get their path problem fixed quickly, then why can't those of us who want to buy Farm Cash get ours fixed? It's your money maker ....It keeps saying error with Farmtown.
Tried everything.

[nala]

I like the cages on the passionfruit... if you have ever grown passionfruit you know that you have to support them like every few inches with support or the wind will break them off. So I use plastic mesh to allow them to grow up like and they get really tall! Passionfruit is a gorgeous flower that will live for years if cared for properly. I think they did a fantastic job trying to show actual growing conditions. I can hardly wait to see what the flower looks like in fully ripe.
It's a great day to Farm

Tried everything.

It could be because the FarmCash purchases go through Face Book, and their might be some coordination required. With Zuckerberg set to be a Trillionaire soon, I don't think FB is of the mindset to solve a FT problem quickly.

The path issue, on the other hand was up to the devs, and the devs alone.

[TsunamiVince]

Thanks for fixing the "I can't click on one of the ocean shore bits when I stick two of them together back to back" problem!

[maggiel29]

Ive just been sorting my town - I am just so pleased that I can actually put paving and paths right next to the buildings and the fire hydrants etc dont vanish - I dont have to have all over concrete in order to get cars that wont sink - thank-you.

And the Passion Fruit looks much better now the leaves have grown - fascinating watching new crops!

[Zeeky Banutski]

The 'Production Chain' option is in the Facility Manager, not the 'seed' option.

Duh! I can be such a maroon...I figured it out just moments after posting.

[/QUOTE]- Dirt Path now also preserves old behaivor allowing you to create waterfalls and other designs.

- Right now the dirt and stone path have some mixed (old/new) behaivor, they are still floor level items meaning they will not overlap (sink) other items in them, they will always appear under other items close to the floor, but they will still allow to do some of the tricks designers used to create waterfalls, etc. That's the simple solution and could be a good compromise.

But based on user feedback we may decide instead to add another "duplicate" of the dirt path and stone path, they will both look exactly the same in the store and in the farm but:

1. One set will behaive exactly the same as before, it will allow the same tricks and they will not be floor level items, so other items may sink in them

2.The other set will be floor level items, they will always be under other items close to the floor, will not sink other items, and also, they will allow to put other stuff on top of them.

The downside of this alternative is that it can be quite confusing, having both sets of items in the farm that looks the same and behaives differently. We will listen to feedback and to the moderators feedback and make a decision based on that.[/QUOTE]

I like the idea of having 2 kinds of each path. I don't think it's confusing.

[kahra01]

Love the idea of duplicating the paths etc. With the new fix, when using the path under plows to lay some trees there, I now find they dont come above it so I can then delete them. Once I planted crops, the paths would surface but now they dont so the duplication would be awesome! I agree with all other comments that our devs are the best in the business! Thanks so much guys for the great work you do! :D

Ok, now you guys rock.... thank you, thank you for rotating the acacia tree, they really looked weird, like a big wind blowing just one way and made my farm look loopsided, lol

I don't think it will be confusing having two sets of paths... name one the unsinkable and the sinkable and that way there will be no confussion.... really we are having to make a book "Farm Town for Dummies", like those that are out there for dummies... ;-)

Thanks Raul & Co.

I think this is a good option and you can mark the ones that are not floor items with an x or something so people know which is which in the store.

[Farm Lady]

Okay, I can't find this in the 'problems/issues' but right now, no one I know can post their facilities or belt bonuses. Hoping the dev's are on it:)

[susme48]

carolann....it really does work to 'follow' the directions on the prob about buying fc....if you persist and change browsers, you can buy it....I did yesterday.

[Docperk]

I seen one other post on this but want to post mine to. I am unable to make any post for my facilities. It may be a Facebook problem but I know our Devs can help get it fixed. Mods just please tell us they are on it.

thanks

[Ellen Betty Nelson]

Well said! I couldnt agree more!! I pay for my own enjoyment and the betterment of my gaming experience... and will continue to support this game so those that wont pay can still play it! :P

Thanks for the great game.
Which I might add that I have never spent any 'real' $ on, because I simply have not had it to spend on 'toys' or even 'TOYS', that are well beloved and used often. I have 5 main farms and numerous other 'supporting' farms that have afforded me to 'live' very well in the FarmTown environment. On my main farm I am well beyond the top level of 335 now and still going. Other 'main' farms are growing also.
I am very sorry that I cannot help to support all of my 'fun' with $ to help the developers, as I do realize that this is their way of making a living. I am disabled and have a son and hubby that are also, so our $ is very limited in the real 'world', and I for one am VERY appreciative of the fact that there are 'work-arounds' for not having the $ to spend on this 'game' to be able to pay for it.
And I add that the developers are aware of these work-arounds that allow us to use the product of their hard work for free.
And I also realize that there must be others that are in my same position, not that they Won't pay, but that they cannot pay.

Again I say 'Thanks for the great game'.
And I am also appreciative of the others who do pay, so I can enjoy playing, even though I cannot pay.

ty dev for making the passion fruit look so cool during the devloment stages can not wait to see what it looks like when it is done. pls add some more cool looking ones

Hello Farmers :)

Yes, we are aware of this issue and have been investigating. The developers have been notified.

Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while we work things out.

[BBrooker]

I appreciate that a lot of farmers will welcome the recent change to paths BUT I
have a lot of footpaths on my farms that are an intrinsic detail of the overall design. They were laid onto ploughed fields and were still visible through growing crops. Since the 'improvement' they have disappeared under the ploughed fields and I have had to delete the fields over them in order to get my footpaths back. This has reduced the amount of crops I get but also (in my opinion) has somewhat spoiled the look of my farms. I am not a happy bunny :(

[lawalk]

All the new updates are great. Only thing about the new trains is that they are not rotatable so you can only place them one direction. Can the rotate feature be added to them or can new editions going the opposite way be made? That would really help. Thanks.

No, the pop-up in pink some of us get says it's a problem with Farmtown. That's OK...will save money this way. Farmtown's loss.

Suggestion:

A. The shop looks the same, but when you chose a path, you get 2 alternatives (like we choose angle at things) 1. "Always lay on the bottom" 2. "Acess putting items at the top". With a question sign which explains more, like the ? signs at seeds.

When paths is put in storage, the 2 types will seperate so we can se the difference when its getting used.

B. Te shop looks the same, but when you chose a path, you can "hook" a hatch for "lay at the bottom" or "Acess putting items at the top".

When paths is put in storage, the 2 types will seperate so we can se the difference when its getting used.

I trust you to do the things you think is best, but PLEASE dont take away the possibility to put buildings closer and overlap river/sea:)

The beauty of your response Ellen Betty, is showing just how happy you are to play the game in the spirit that you do, with the bare basics, so you show it can be done. My main gripe is the ones that complain bitterly yet wont pay because they believe it should be free to all with all the perks added. You are obviously grateful for the work the devs do. Not everyone can afford to pay FC and thats not a problem.. if only they were as gracious and accepting as you. Bless you and happy farming :D

[JW2009]

You know, yesterday i did lots of research on this fruit and how it's supposes to look for my own content, because i thought it grew from trees, but after doing my research, i discovered that they grow exactly as they are on my farm - very kool :) thank you and happy farming :) ty dev for making the passion fruit look so cool during the devloment stages can not wait to see what it looks like when it is done. pls add some more cool looking ones

[Dutch85]

Just for the sake of seeing whether I could post or not, I filled my facilities and tried. It opens a new window that says an error occurred. when I click "ok" it takes that new window to my homepage. Weird. My server is WF1 and my browser is Google Chrome. Thank you Devs, I know you are working to hard solve the problem

[gffarmer]

Hello Farmers :)

Yes, we are aware of this issue and have been investigating. The developers have been notified.

Sorry for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience while we work things out.

Thanks Amber for letting us know. Good luck to the developers in getting around the latest facebook change.

[StoneFace]

So my Passionate Fruit is ready.... and I just harvested what I wanted to fill the facility need.

Be advised it only took me less than 4000 to get to the 1st Dan Degree, and the 2nd Dan triggers at 4700 ( only 2350 if fertilized).

I will not harvest any more of the huge plantings (20-30,0000 at each account) ... lol.... or I will be bypassing all the bonus levels. Oh well, it is good for another 8 days++ while I wait for the problem to be fixed.

:rolleyes:

Hi there,

As far as we can tell it's a Facebook issue as it's also happening with other games. The developers are aware of the problem and are looking into it to see what can be done. We apologise for the inconvenience at this time and thank you for your understanding and patience.

ty for the info hope they fix it very soon

[ImajeanB]

would love to be able to send friends the new acacia tree but cant since slashkey wont fix the hacking error that exists caused by farmtown when sending gifts on myspace. This problem has been reported numerous times by many people but still no fix. When are the devs going to at least let us know if they are even going to try and fix it? we havent even heard that yet.

It is on here that they are aware of the situation and working to fix it. Give them a break....they do so much for us without people criticizing them. I am sure they want to fix it asap!

Thanks Tiger - its affecting the gift sending now as well - only in the last couple of hours - was OK earlier. I can exchange a gift but when I click on Accept nothing happens - (this is FB BTW).

[maggiel29]

Hmmmmmmmmmm - one worked but the others wont - curiouser and curiouser - I will go re- boot my PC etc and get back to you.

[maggiel29]

Hi Tiger

It must have been my PC - the gift accepting and sending is working fine now. Hangs head feeling like an idiot!! I thought it was connected to the work and bonus posting problem.

[susme48]

I simply posted that my facilities were full, and that neighbors could use yesterdays post ti get in....some have and I am getting my farms worked....there is almost always a way around things....I refuse to give up....lol....tho' the missed bonuses make me 'sad'...:p

[holla]

OMG!, sorry but why does Facebook keep fixing things that are NOT Broke??..this is so stupid, and Farmtown is the BEST game on here!..period..

Raul and devs,i have no idea what ur contract status is with Facebook, But you Guys seriously Need to Think about a stand alone site!--run from facebook!..lol...its still happening and i understand its facebook, and wouldnt even come here if it werent for FT.

Just wondering if the devs are gonna re-inburse or Freeze the bonuses Till this FB thing is worked out?.i mean like whhy not freeze the bonuses at the current ..then start again when its solved so we Dont LOSE the advantages cuz of Facebooks problem, Raul and this Whole dev Team Go Out Of Their Way to fix game glitches and are SUPER fast to fix Problems, Why should they put up with Facebooks issues also???
I know im not alone on this stand alone site idea...I would Even Pay for that.just to get away from FB..:)
sorry,had to vent..:)
Keep up the good work Team!

BTW, i got 1 day to go on the passionfruit crop,and i think it looks awesome to watch it grow, now im gonna have to buy more sticks or whatever it is to hold the plants up.:)

if they did a stand alone site we would probabley lose everything and i am not willing to start over i would lose to much money and time. but if we would not lose anything then i would be ok but i do not want to pay the play a free game

Sorry, I forgot to say I am on server WF1 and Google Chrome. Everything seems to be working again for me.

[Hyacinth Bucket]

You know, yesterday i did lots of research on this fruit and how it's supposes to look

Yes it's a fruit that grows on a climbing vine, just the most wonderful taste as long as you don't chew on the seeds :eek:, homemade passionfruit wine goes down very well too ;)

[Hyacinth Bucket]

I've just had to delete 224 pieces of snow because they now don't cover the things I wanted them to cover, it took me days & days to design that farm too! But I'm NOT complaining, it gives me a chance to redesign something else :)

Ive got several farms with full grown passion fruit - I think this crop is really clever - with all the different growth stages. Im hoping the bonus etc posting problem will be fixed before it withers - I have 7 days left (I used the green sprinkler).

so... hang in there


.

thank you very much for answering. I missed that part about the trains in the update.

I think m ost people do not read!!! Maybe a reading class is in order! LOL After being able to post facs last evening I did not see anyone thanking FB. With the many millions using FB it is no wonder glitches occur and not that often does it happen! THANK YOU DEVS OF fb AND ft!!!!!!

I AM very grateful to the devs for getting our problems fixed...THANK YOU DEVS!

[ImajeanB]

The question was asked "what don't we read" well....many of the complaints that is posted here is fully explained in this forum if we would only read it before we complain!!! Enough said...for now! lol

[susme48]

I know it is not time for any updates, new stuff etc....however, I did notice something I have always noticed before when a really biggie is underway....I am running out of things I "never" run out of. No it is not new facility use, it is odd stuff....rabbit fleece for one example; last time I think it was milk or eggs. I could have accidentally sold it, but I don't think so, since all I have sold was non-ingredients for a bit. Don't think this has anything to do with FB....tho' the connection there is tenuous at best today, for me anyway. At least it is working! If Facebook had a forum, or phone, or something that they actually paid attention to....I would thank them....but one cannot seem to contact them no matter what.

[Dutch85]

As happy as I am about yesterday's posting problem, I now find that I can't work anyones facilites and on my own farm I can't open messages and I keep getting the server disconnect popup.. I can't do anything in Farmtown.

[heatheramaya]

I can't do anything either.. My cows need milking.. can't do that.. My hens my goats.. nothing.. can't get into facility manager barely.. when I do it times out and anything I loaded is unloaded..driving me nuts.. I can harvest and plow but am a little scared to do that right now too....:(

I noticed that posting of the facilities problem is fixed, thank you.
I have noticed that an old problem is back again. Seems like every other update I get the problem where I cannot see people in the market until I reload a few times. This time doesn't appear to be as bad in the past. They don't seem to be getting my invites to work either. I did get one hired to work and went to my farm and I saw about a dozen people on my farm. I asked where did they all come from and the one I hired said she just saw here and myself. And NO I do not drink or do drugs... May be a bit old but not that bad. :) Reloaded my farm and they were gone. Seemed like half of the people from the market showed up my farm but I guess they were just ghost images. I remember hearing of others having that problem some time back.
Still like the trains we have and hardly can wait for the others... bring it on Devs you are great.

Oh and I have been getting several time outs tonight.

[Deeann72]

Can someone help me? I go to the reality office to upgrade a farm adn a box comes up says ERROR 025 hit X to reload game, why cant i upgrade, i downloaded latest verison of adobe and still nothing,, HELP!!!

Not that it's any big deal, but why is orange blossom herbal tea in a red box, and strawberry lemonade herbal tea in an orange box? Seems like it would have made more sense for it to be the other way around.

I had the same problem yesterday with the Acacia trees Arabic Gum not showing up in my storage, but it seems to be working today. However, the harvest is only one gum per tree, not nearly enough to stock the needed gum in the Shipping Facility.

That's for sure. I haven't done the math, but I have a feeling you'd need to cover half a farm with these trees in order to have enough.

To fully load all 4 items from empty will take 1440 trees. :eek: And they are 3 day trees. It will take a while before any of us get to that 100% level on all 4 items. :p

I loaded my facs this morning to 100% including the Shipping one and I still have 1500 Arabic gum left. I have been madly sending and exchanging gifts and Ive got about 300 trees - which with the fertiliser and the green sprinkler is adequate.

I also did several ingredient requests to get Arabic gum which helped

I did forget about fertilizing which would cut it to 720, irrigating to cut time in half and then belts would pare that down some more, but it does seem like a lot for a new plant. Either way you need 1440 arabic gum to fill the facility.

now see i came in here to find out why my Arabic Gum is not showing up .. I just went to make my first of that Adhesive Tape in the "Shipping Supplies' Facility and have harvested my Arabic Trees two or three times.. I know more than one time for sure.. and have nothing... Umm What is up am i missing something?? Are we supposed to process the trees and make the Gum somewhere???

wow, Rob....If that is proportionate....I want your screen!!! wow, looks almost twice the size of my 22"! Noticed that they are two day...that helps, :)

No processing needed. They should show up in plants in your storage.

[Taz D]

And with belts... probably cut that down a bit more. BTW they are 2 day trees, not 3 :)
I did say that about the belts. But I wasn't sure about the time since they are gift trees and I didn't look them up in the Game Guide...:o:D

[BartSRQ]

Not sure how to get this concern noticed but I am not able to buy Farm Town Cash. This is a recent problem and I have not seen any news as to whether or not others are experiencing the same issue.

[SunnyD]

OOPS!! then i have a problem.. not one drop is in my storage...I just emptied cache' yesterday cause of the farms running sooo slow.........it is a little better today though this happens a lot with a update.....but umm what do we do about this gum problem???

has anyone heard if we are able to get the gum from the acacia trees yet.?? I have 18 hours left for my next harvest time on mine.. I haven't gotten any gum from harvesting them yet..

[Tiger]

has anyone heard if we are able to get the gum from the acacia trees yet.?? I have 18 hours left for my next harvest time on mine.. I haven't gotten any gum from harvesting them yet..

Just tried mine again, got them, no problems here. Before you harvest them make a note of how many Arabic gum you have in storage. Then immediately check your storage again just after harvesting to make sure they got there.

[slimpat]

harvested mine 2x and i have nothing oh well

[susme48]

just a thought...slimpat....are you checking before filling facilities? in case you are using it up before you check? I am sure you probably aren't, but I have done that a few times....growled and then went "duh" lol sometimes I don't think. However I have been harvesting mine....think I am on the 4th time?...not sure, could be 3...and have had no probs

[slimpat]

I do not have the facility that uses it and only have 20 trees that I harvest 2x I checked today and have zero zilch nada nothing thought i would check when others said they were not getting anything

[Don't feed the beggers]

The passion fruit makes it hard to harvest anything you might have near it as it takes up much space and its very hard to see whats beside it.

[1fritz]

Just read the posts about the Acacia trees and the gum not going to storage..
So I tried mine and everything worked just it should.

[SunnyD]

[Docperk]

Oh really not to be a smart *** or anything, but you are looking under A for Arabic and not G for Gum, right?

[KnightRider]

Mine is working fine, I have 40000+ and I have worked facilities a couple of times.

How many trees do u have to get over 40,000?

[auntyrene]

I have just checked and mine is ok it is under "Arabic Gum" .

[SunnyD]

Oh really not to be a smart *** or anything, but you are looking under A for Arabic and not G for Gum, right?

I actually thought of that and I have looked under both letters lol lol & i did laugh cause you were thinking that also lol lol

[SunnyD]

Just harvested acacia trees again.....and still not a drop of gum.......I didn't harvest them all because i see no reason to loose all that for the 4th time....grrrrrrrrr someone help??? have no idea what to do.........

[Docperk]

How many trees do u have to get over 40,000?

Not real sure but I think in the neighborhood of 700. I have some on several of my fields. Some are in 8x8 bunches others are in a double row spanning the width of the farm.

Bart, a lot of us are. I just now went into Farm Town to try again and it worked. I followed that link that was posted. took me two tries, but now i can make my farms bigger and plant lots of acacia trees hahaha

Hooray and I think that was Taz D? Thank you!:D

[earlgray]

I've been redoing one of my farms with a water base, and it is so refreshing not to have to deal with the problem of grass and land paths covering up buildings. Hooray!!! Thank you devs for this terrific improvement. Now, and mind you I'm not complaining here, but if you want to take it one step further and completely amaze me, you would make it possible to control the layering of two different kinds of paths. For instance, if I have a grass path that partly overlaps a stone path, you would make it possible for me to say the stone path goes underneath the grass path where they overlap. That would be so awesome!

[maggiel29]

Ive just noticed my new Tea House does not have Passion Herbal Tea Lemoade listed to stock - its listed in the release info on page one as being able to stock in this service fac.

Also without realising it Ive just sold my entire stock under non-ingredients as thats where it comes up in my store.

[cocosfarm]

Awesome. Thanks Raul and Devs :)

my paths still sink under farm plots...why?

second question-how do i create an original post, not a reply to a post?

[mseels2003]

I really like ths game, but the cost of expanding the farms in coins is OUTRAGEOUS!!!!!!!!! The coin prices NEED to be lowered! Why is it SO HIGH to upgrade 1-4????????

[Taz D]

my paths still sink under farm plots...why?

second question-how do i create an original post, not a reply to a post?
Because they are still designed to do that. If you are using them to place items close together even though they sink underneath they still allow layering items close together. Otherwise they act like all the other paths and are the bottom layer and do not rest on top of anything.
You cannot create a new thread in News and Announcements or in Suggestion. You can create a new thread in General Feedback & in Help and Support. However it would be better in Help and Support if you post a reply in the Official thread that applies to your problem.

Is it possible to take the magnolia trees and make the neck lei's like they put on you when you arrive in Hawaii --

Hi Farmers! we just released an update to comply with new facebook requirements.
You should now be able to buy FarmCash without retrying several times.

[Texas Belle]

Is it possible to take the magnolia trees and make the neck lei's like they put on you when you arrive in Hawaii --

1. You must mean to sell them at the flower shop? Because I don't think the avatar would wear it.

2. The passion fruit lemonade is on the herbal tea shop with all the other teas.

3. I have stone paths with grass paths and since they are both squares I move them so they don't overlap one another, no problem with that.

Happy farming,

Taz, yes---I have a Farmtown group of over 2000 members and it's happening to a lot of them---at least there are a lot of complaints

Post Release Updates - May 7th, 3:00AM EST

- Dirt Path now also preserves old behaivor allowing you to create waterfalls and other designs.
- Acacia Tree, Plantain Tree, Cedar and Bamboo Tree can now be rotated.

Post Release Updates - May 7th, 6:10PM EST

- Cedar and Bamboo show correct image when rotated.
- Passion Fruit new crop and Passion Herbal Tea Lemonade.
- Stone Path now also preserves old behaivor allowing you to create waterfalls and other designs.

Post Release Updates - May 15th, 5:30PM EST

- Passion Fruit herbal tea added to the Tea House

Known Issues

- Right now the dirt and stone path have some mixed (old/new) behaivor, they are still floor level items meaning they will not overlap (sink) other items in them, they will always appear under other items close to the floor, but they will still allow to do some of the tricks designers used to create waterfalls, etc. That's the simple solution and could be a good compromise.

But based on user feedback we may decide instead to add another "duplicate" of the dirt path and stone path, they will both look exactly the same in the store and in the farm but:

1. One set will behaive exactly the same as before, it will allow the same tricks and they will not be floor level items, so other items may sink in them

2.The other set will be floor level items, they will always be under other items close to the floor, will not sink other items, and also, they will allow to put other stuff on top of them.

The downside of this alternative is that it can be quite confusing, having both sets of items in the farm that looks the same and behaives differently. We will listen to feedback and to the moderators feedback and make a decision based on that.

why not post beside them o=original and n=new so then farmers would know which to get?

Is anyone else having problems with it not working or else when it does work it's extremely slow?? :confused: thanks ... and yes I have cleared everything and done the maintenance on my computer so that is NOT the problem.

I used mine a little while ago at the usual pace with no problem, so can't help.

Just one hint that I've had to do sometimes, even when I've done all the usual tricks, is to completely close down and reboot. That often gives my farm a kick along.

[Freddie Freefarmer]

The downside of this alternative is that it can be quite confusing, having both sets of items in the farm that looks the same and behaives differently. We will listen to feedback and to the moderators feedback and make a decision based on that.

How about a NEW item? Call it a "Construction Platform" or something like that? No confusion there...
Doesn't have to be pretty. Just a half or quarter sized plot square with x's on it, or the word 'Platform'?
Or 'Base'?

[Freddie Freefarmer]

Also, I did have problems yesterday, mostly with Chrome. Sending gifts hung up a few times. IE and FF seemed better...
And, the game page loaded with hundreds of blank lines before the 'Report' line... seems ok now though...

[Texas Belle]

not sure if this can be solved here but, i cannot see any posts for work in facilites or my posts for work on the facebook home page, i see mine on my timeline but not the home page, yes i have done all the recomended clearing and clean up. i use google chrome and never had a problem with it until this release. i am on WF-8, ty ty

I had that same problem and went to home page to account settings, when you find farm town hit on the x to edit and be sure that you have "friends" highlighted. That should take care of it. If you have like "only ....." your friends on farm town will not be able to see your posts neither you will see the one from them. After this refresh your page and it will be done. Follow TAZ instructions too, he is very knowledgeable and helps a lot.

I've been having that problem specially when harvesting the animal sheds, I can do 2 maybe and then I have to wiggle the up and down bar and it does it again for 2 more and so on, very annoying, but then I thought it was my computer, lol

I do maintenance on mine every week, I installed that McKeeper who is supposed to keep the junk out and I use it every week to clean cache and all the other things that fall in that I don't want. It's really good tool. And when I get into FB every morning I clean my cache, but still slow.

If I open the game, and it is time for the gift page to appear first, I send gifts, and get that message.

When I return to send more gifts, it does not appear the second, third etc time

I just went from level 311 to 312. I had 19 cash dollars and when it went to level 312 it now shows only 10 cash dollars. where did my cash go?? That's a "Bummer"

But Tony do you know if the Passion Fruit HT Lemonade is meant to be in the Tea Shop? Its on the list on page 1 here but maybe thats the boo boo as it is also in the "Non-ingredients" section of storage.

Try clearing your cache, close your browser and reopen to your farm to check again. If it still doesn't show up then you will need to contact Support as no refunds/replacements can be done through the forums.
To contact Support go to your farm page and scroll all the way to the bottom of the page and click on Report/Contact this app and choose the first option. Fill out the form that opens up. Be patient as it can take anywhere from a few hours up to a couple weeks depending on how many tickets they have in front of yours.

[jcassemjr]

My poor avitar is sick! He is moving so slowly these days. I've taken him to the Dr, had his Cache cleared, his Macromedia files cleared, took him to the FarmTown Clinic, had everything "unset", even knocked him out for a good nights sleep by shutting down the computer all night with it unplugged and battery out, but he is still moving so slow. Dr said he doesn't have a virus. I don't know what else to do!

Poor little guy is moving so slow, and he has had to refill all of the facilities multiple times, because even though I helped him in facility manager fill them, and they were all at 100%, when we revisit them after everything is saved, they are back down to where they were, plus additional products are finished.

Anybody know a good voodoo Dr or developer that can heal him? I don't like seeing him like this!

Did you reset his router? That can help too with any time outs. And since you took the battery out so he could get a good nights rest his date and time could be off which can also cause this too.

[Texas Belle]

Well I don't know what is happening but today has been the pit...I have never had so much problem to seed and harvest. Slow like nothing before, and lots of plug in failure, takes a lot of time to go from one farm to the other. Hope it is because they are working and giving us this time a good release, but have to say, left the game a few times for me to cool off my annoyance, came back and still the same. Hope tomorrow is a better day!!

[Texas Belle]

Oh and it is not my browser, I have the best an IMac and Safari and everything else works fine, so just waiting to see if tomorrow it will be better.

I don't have a Mac but several friends do and they sayy Safari is as slow as IE on Windows. They do make Mac versions of Firefox and Chrome that you could try.

[kataltay]

I have tried Google Chrome, Firefox and IE 9, and I am experiencing the same extreme slowness mentioned above by Texas Belle. I am tired of seeing "saving" over and over and over, when all I may have done is place one item out of storage onto my farm, or placed one tree, path, etc. I cannot go from placing multiple anything to doing something else on the same farm, because the avatar demands "Wait, I'm busy" for far too long. Nothing is enjoyable or efficient lately, and what is worse is I have not seen anywhere an explanation for the recent deterioration in in-game performance, or any offer to investigate it.

Same thing here kataltay, I was harvesting and plowing for a friend today and had to go around that black sign that says "storing ......" it would not go away and was very difficult to harvest and plow around it... my avatar is busy all the time and even when i go to get facilities from others that saving, saving comes up and delays time from one facility to another, not mentioning the times it says that it could not retrieve some factory.... terrible, terrible... hope things get better because I am giving it a rest.

Yep, his router was reset, and he's keeping great time. It appears to be something going around with all of the comments on the forum.... Hard to imagine he didn't catch it in FarmTown, since he's not the only avitar that appears to be sick....

How often do they do updates? It looks like on average about every 3 weeks??? Im just so in need of more farms....lol Crossing fingers farm 15 in next update but if 3 weeks is right looks like we still got another week. Is them closing this thread another clue of an update coming?

LOL - Closing this thread is the cue for StoneFace to begin a stream of corny jokes, and for various forum members to kidnap moderators and hold them to ransom until Raul gives us our update :D

Sometimes I think Raul holds off on the update because we manage to keep him amused on the forum.

Lately it has been about 3 weeks between updates, but we have learned not to hold our collective breath :eek:

Awww shucks!! Talking about me, huh.... just whisper sweet nothings in my ear.... and call me Colonel.


*****

So, last night, two freshly harvested Farm Town corn cobs, were picked with the combine. They were best friends, , and later, after being delivered to market (and escaping), they were walking together down the street.

They stepped off the curb and a speeding FT taxi came around the corner and ran one of them over.

The uninjured corn cob called 911 and helped his injured friend as best he was able. The injured corn cob was taken to emergency at the newly built FT Hospital and rushed into surgery. After a long and agonizing wait, the doctor-avatar finally appeared.

He told the uninjured corn cob, "I have good news, and I have bad news. The good news is that your friend is going to pull through." "The bad news is that he's going to be a vegetable for the rest of his life".

Sorry been playing for a couple of years with some breaks here and there but never been to forom much.

It's closer to 3.5 to 4 weeks between. The history has been new levels every other update and a new farm about every third update.

That would mean 25 new levels in about another week or two and about 5-6 weeks to Farm 15.

They have been allowing more expansions from 24x24 to 30x30 in some farms but they cost so much that it takes forever to earn the 3-5 billion coins needed. I have EVERY coin facility, many FC facilities, many tools, 14 farms all expanded to large extents and it takes me about two weeks to earn ONE billion coins!

They REALLY need to increase the release of new levels to something like 30 or more EVERY update to make playing more rewarding. As it is I've EARNED more than double the XP of the current top level of 335 but will not GET the almost 200 levels they represent dribbled out over well in excess of a year, more like 18 months. The frustration is I've EARNED those XP but they are useless until new levels get released at the current snail's pace.

So don't hold your breath for new farms or levels. They come but very slowly. And who knows when they will stop issuing new farms altogether?!

The other issue currently is all the new facilities that use crops we can grow cost FC but ones that cost coins need FC facilities to provide inputs?! They are making the game improvements almost exclusively for those who have REAL $ to spend and don't seem to care one wit about the rest of us.

[Taz D]

Why has belt bonus limit gone down to 5,000,000 from 12,000,000? (If this has a better place to be, please move it there.)
The belt bonus levels have never been 12,000,000. This is what was released in December:
Maximun 12 hour earning cap increased: Currently you can earn up to 1,000,000 coins every 12 hour from Ingredient Posts and another 1,000,000 coins every 12 hour from Bonus Posts. For users in higher levels instead of 1,000,000 this limit will be increased as follows:

Levels 100-199 -> 3,000,000 coins
Levels 200-299 -> 4,000,000 coins
Levels 300-399 -> 5,000,000 coins

[kataltay]

The expansions beyond 24x24 all come with a clearly typed warning before we purchase, that these larger farms can compromise the performance of the game on these larger farms, so, to say you had no idea enlarging to 30x30 would slow things down, means you failed to read this caveat. Each farm expansion I paid for, I did so knowing the risks, willing to handle them. It's the slowness on the unexpanded farms that I wish developers would look into.

[Tuckertbnc]

I've noticed the slowness too :rolleyes:
but .. they did warn us that expanding that big would cause a farm to 'act' slow like a multi layered - crowded treed , flowered farm .....

I've fully expanded my farms 1 , 2, 3 and made them my 2 'factory' farms + quest farm .... so slowness on those 3 doesn't affect my playing because I only harvest trees and flowers on those 3 ... but the slowness on my other farms HAS to be because they are expanded ..

I don't 'stack' crops , flowers, and trees or buildings etc on top of each other .. I do stack layer my crop areas but that's never affected the game before ..

I have 8 farms for growing crops , the other 6 have just buildings trees and flowers plus decorations ...:p and farm 15 will just be made into some kind of town to put out more of my decorations ..

:D I just LOVE this game !!

[jkmyer]

is there a way to make a list and keep it to selected neighbors to send gifts and bonus.

[Docperk]

This is probably a question for StoneFace since he has stats on everything but anyone can answer.
My farm 4 is still ad 24x24 because I have it surrounded by seacoast. I haven't wanted to expand it cause I want to be able to keep it surrounded what I want to know is, is the 30x30 big enough to be able to add another small seacoast on each side to keep it surrounded? I actually have 2 large seacoast on front sides and 4 small ones on the back sides but I figure at some point I should be able to squeeze a small one in there.
Anybody have any figures on this?

thanks

If... you only place the coasts end to end, you can have 5 small seacoasts on one side of a 30x30

and

only 2 large seacoasts on one side of a 30x30.... there is not quite enough room to have 2 large and one small on one side of a 30x30

however... if you use the dirt path and overlap the ends, you could easily have a Large-Small-Large.

[knolan]

I would prefer increased harvest amts of animals, increase the # of animals in 1 bldg, or be able to add extra bldgs on same farm & be active for harvesting. We need increased production of basic ingredients to match supply & demand when they add new facilities.

[knotroot42]

:)how do i change the avatars name?????

[SunnyD]

:)how do i change the avatars name?????

look on the tabs on top of your farm it has one that says "Account" click on that and you can change your avatar name there type the name and sex of the avatar then click on change.......

[1fritz]

Yep that is what I did on mine. Now I just got to move everything else... :)

And that's what I love about Farm Town. Always changing, just gets better and better.

a question......is your flash player version current ???? i know there was an update to flash recently .....it could be the answer

making a construction platform just for overlapping stuff would be a very useful thing. the way it is now does work for me and i thank them for adding it back in.

My husband and I are having a discussion. How do you know what having the retail store pays? I say that selling out of the factory is like selling wholesale and selling from the retail shop is like selling retail with a profit, He says that the retail is grouping them together and they sell for the same price, Are either of us correct.

Hi, there is around 50% Mark up for selling the products through the service facilities.

thanks I didn't realize it was that much but I was sure there was a mark up.

[Tony D]

Hi I thought I should double check ... This is from the April 2011 release when they first released the Service Facilities..



9. Service Facilities: These are a new type of facilities that will not produce any tangible goods but instead will allow you to make coins by providing a service. It works similar to the current facilities, the difference is that you don't start any production on them, but rather load them with products so they can provide a service.

You can check the "What's in Stock" tab and see what is still in stock, what has been used and to Cash Out the coins you have made for whatever have been used so far. You will make about 50% more profit by loading the products into the service facilities and then Cashing Out later, compared to just selling the products in the market.

My poor avatar is sick! He is moving so slowly these days. I've taken him to the Dr, had his Cache cleared, his Macromedia files cleared, took him to the FarmTown Clinic, had everything "unset", even knocked him out for a good nights sleep by shutting down the computer all night with it unplugged and battery out, but he is still moving so slow. Dr said he doesn't have a virus. I don't know what else to do!

Poor little guy is moving so slow, and he has had to refill all of the facilities multiple times, because even though I helped him in facility manager fill them, and they were all at 100%, when we revisit them after everything is saved, they are back down to where they were, plus additional products are finished.

Anybody know a good voodoo Dr or developer that can heal him? I don't like seeing him like this!

Thanks for all of the suggestions. I had indeed already done all of them before posting, and my little guy was getting sicker and sicker.:( I gave him a rest for 2 days, to watch my son play soccer. I'm happy to say that my little avatar seems to be on mend. Today he worked almost at his usual speed, but still had trouble remembering all of the filling instructions in the Facility Manager. He did about half of them, even though I gave him the instructions really slowly waiting for each facility picture to reappear before I gave him the instructions to fill the next one. He only did about half of them, but that is better than him not remember any of them!

Hopefully, after he gets more rest this weekend since I will be at the Indianapolis 500, he will be rick back to normal! And, if he had a new Farm to plant or a train to build to get the paper rolls that he needs, since a paper mill on each farm is not enough, I'm sure he would be flying high and loving life!:rolleyes:

If you visit my farms and go to my farm 14 you can see where I've put large and small seacoasts around the edges .. trying to make it look kinda like a island ... :D still working on it .. but it will give you an idea .... its expanded as big as I can get it ....

And, if he had a new Farm to plant or a train to build to get the paper rolls that he needs, since a paper mill on each farm is not enough, I'm sure he would be flying high and loving life!:rolleyes:

LOL same thing happened to me, believe me I feel your pain.. drove me nuts... in the end I just unplugged my mouse, gave it 10 seconds, put it back in, let it install itself again and all was great again!

is there a way to make a list and keep it to selected neighbors to send gifts and bonus.

On your HOME page in FB, look down to the left and click FRIENDS. Up at the top of that page is a box that says CREATE LIST. Click it and name your list whatever will help you remember what it's for, mine are FT1, FT2 and so on. Now comes the hard part...you have to remember all your neighbors names, lol. What I do is type the letter a and it brings up a list of friends with 'a' in their names, so you just pick who you want, and go thru the alphabet that way. Remember that the game limit is 50, I make my lists 30 or so. When you have it all set with who you want, go into the game and go to SEND GIFTS. Pick your gift then PROCEED TO SEND, as usual, but click on the FACEBOOK FRIENDS LIST on the last tab, then open the little box that says SELECT A FRIEND LIST at the left and pick your list. Click their names and send! :)

How do you get the facilities you already have on your farm to quit sinking? You fixed it, but I can not get mine to not doing it.

I don't have problems with the facilities, the only thing I find that still sinks is the railroad tracks.
