New Release -- September 3rd, 2020

[Raul]

See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last changes released on September 29th, 6:00PM.

Hi There,

We just released a new update with the following features and bug fixes: En Español AQUI (http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=647810)

1. Next 5 expansions for Farm 42:

Upgrade Farm 22x22 - 45500000000 or 25 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 24x24 - 46000000000 or 25 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 26x26 - 46500000000 or 25 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 28x28 - 47000000000 or 25 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 30x30 - 47500000000 or 25 FarmCash

2. Allow your Super Neighbours to manage your trains: There is a new management section at the bottom of the Super Neighbour settings screen where you can allow Super Neighbours to manage your trains, this includes dispatching and unloading your trains and also boosting others trains.

Update 1: If you are a Super Neighbour for a farmer, when you visit that farmer you can access his/her Train Manager by clicking the toolbox icon at the bottom left and then clicking the train icon.

Update 2: There are no rewards for dispatching and unloading other farmers trains, however, if that farmer has received train boost requests from his/her neighbours and you boost those trains, then the product rewards from the boosting goes to you instead of the farm owner. ***Notice that in this case you can not boost your own trains.***

3. Other minor improvements:

a) Made updates to our feature release process so the game doesn't slow down when we release new features

b) Allow the use of the Purple Hand tool when designing for a Super Neighbour if that Super Neighbour owns the Purple Hand tool. It works with any items in the store and the item storage except farm cash items.

c) When farming and receiving a notification of a ship container ready, once you close the ship screen, the tool you were using at the time will be auto-selected automatically

d) Removed the "Are you sure..." confirmation message when leaving a farm

e) When using the orange Manure Spreader, we replaced the explanation in the message box by a less intrusive flying up text

f) In the Facility Manager, the diversification rank will show correctly for numbers up to 7 digits

g) Bugfix: Sometimes neighbours appeared out of order in the Facility Chains Export screen

4. Improvements released in the past 3 weeks:

a) When farmer X accepts a neighbour request from farmer Y, we added that action to the user actions at the bottom of the game for farmer Y

b) When farmer X sets neighbour Y as a Super Neighbour, we added that action to the user actions at the bottom of the game for farmer Y

c) Added a new purple dot in the neighbour bar to mark those neighbours that have set you as their Super Neighbour

d) When sorting your neighbours by Super Neighbours, first we show those you have set as Super Neighbours (red dot) and then those that have set you as Super Neighbour (purple dot)

e) Split the old 'Show Facilities' option in the preference screen in 3 separate options: 1) Show Regular Facilities 2) Show Service Facilities 3) Show Animal Buildings

d) Added a new 'Show Ground Covers' option in the preference screen

5. Turbo Mineral Mine (FC): This is a new facility that produces 3 times more minerals than the current Mineral Mine. This works similar to the Red Windmill and the Stone Windmill facilities, the Stone Windmill has 3 times more output than the Red Windmill.

Note: This facility and the regular Mineral Mine can be placed on the same farm and both be producing at the same time.

6. Real Estate Office (FC): Produces Apartment Rental Contracts.

1 Bedroom Lease Contract
2 Bedroom Lease Contract
3 Bedroom Lease Contract
4 Bedroom Lease Contract
Penthouse Lease Contract

New Products from other Facilities: Paper Ream in the Office-School Supply Factory.

Note: The production of 'File Folders', 'Printer Ink Cartridge' and 'New Home Card' was increased by 15 units per batch to help with the new demand from this facility.

7. Ecuadorian Restaurant (Coins): Produces Ecuadorian Food.

Ecuadorian Ceviche
Ecuadorian Potato Patties
Green Plantain Dumplings
Ecuadorian Potato Soup
Ecuadorian Fish Soup
Fritada de Chancho
Fried Trout
Fig Preserves

8. Luxury Apartments Building (FC): Provides Luxury Apartments Rental Services and can be stocked with products from the Real Estate Office.

9. Taste of Ecuador (Coins): Provides Ecuador Cultural Exchange and Food Tasting Services and can be stocked with products from the Ecuadorian Restaurant.

Enjoy!

Post Release Updates - September 8th, 7:30PM

- When a Super Neighbour unloads a train for another farmer we now show information about the mayor bonus and the total products earned by the farm owner

- When a Super Neighbour manages a train for another farmer we are also adding that action to the farm owner user actions panel at the bottom of the game with a message like ‘XYZ managed your trains’

- When a Super Neighbour visits another farmer to manage her trains, we now show a red counter in the Train Manager icon for the farm owner with the amount of train boost requests pending for that farmer

- Bugfix: Incorrect counter in the Train Manager icon after managing trains for another farmer as a Super Neighbour

- Bugfix: When hired and leaving the employers farm to another location that is not another employer farm, if you haven't collected your employee bonus before leaving the farm the warning message about losing the bonus was not showing up

- Added a help icon (?) to all products in the Belts screen

Post Release Updates - September 8th, 8:00PM

- Bugfix: Showing only a few products in the Harvest Storage and Item Storage screens

Post Release Updates - September 10th, 5:00PM

- Bugfix: Replaced the Turbo Mineral Mine by the Real Estate Office in the Neighbourhood Chains Contest, because the Turbo Mineral Mine can not be worked by others.
- The acceptance of neighbours and supper neighbours are now showing up in the Farming category in the activity panel at the bottom of the game
- The management of trains are now showing up in the Trains category in the activity panel at the bottom of the game

Post Release Updates - September 14th, 4:20PM

- A new "Consuming Specific Ingredient" filter has been added to the 'Regular Facilities' dropdown in the Facility Manager. When you select that filter a new dropdown arrow will be added for you to select a specific ingredient, then the Facility Manager will only show those facilities that produce at least one product consuming that specific ingredient.

- When working together with a hired employee on a farm, the white text messages alerting you of the work your employee is doing will disappear when you mouse over them, this way they will not interfere with your own work.

- Show a warning when loading a farm that have duplicated Farm Cash facilities, this way if you have accidentally placed a duplicated Farm Cash facility on a farm, you can move it to another farm and benefit from the extra production.

Moderator's note: Please note that if you have duplicated facilities on a farm only one of them will show up in your Facility Manager. You have to go to that farm, then open your Tool box and use the Magnifying Glass to search for them by name.

Post Release Updates - September 16th, 3:00PM

- When detecting duplicated Farm Cash facilities in a farm, we now show the pictures of the duplicated facilities and offer the user to automatically search for those facilities in the farm.

- Wherever you search for something in the game, for example in the store, farm or market, you can now search for multiple things at once by separating the words by commas (,) ex: to search your farms for potatoes, tomatoes and peppers at the same time you can enter: "potatoes, tomatoes, peppers" in the search box.

- When a product has a use as an ingredient AND can also be stocked in a service facility (ex: Leather Masks), we are now showing information on both roles in the help screens, i.e. what other products you can make with it and on which service facilities can you stock it.

Post Release Updates - September 17th, 3:30PM

- When notifying of duplicated Farm Cash facilities and asking to show them on the farm automatically, if you have your facilities hidden in your preferences, you will be asked if you want to make them visible again.

Post Release Updates - September 29th, 6:00PM

- BugFix: When enabling the Management of Trains for a Super Neighbour, the Harvesting of Trees was also enabled.

Known Issues:

- None.

[Taz D]

Thank you - Real Estate Office Not Loading please
Hi Mareface,
The new Real Estate Office needs a new product (paper reem) from the office supplies factory for all products, so until you get some of those created then it won't fill.

[Taz D]

Hi Dana,
We have already reported this to the developers. please be patient until they can find the problem and get it fixed. In the mean time I suggest you write on the post what it is for.

[Texas Belle]

Thanks Taz, no wonder I couldn't fill it... I kept thinking I unchecked it but no it was checked and no paper.. LOL

Hi Texas Belle,
What hotel? The new service facility is a Luxury Apartment Building.

[Alexm2012]

LOVE the Turbo Mine you guys are listening to all our feedback eventually. Thanks so much Raul and Company.

[NJones277]

Thanks for the update. I'm happy to participate when I finally get my FC (1500) back. :)

Why is there a red dot on farm one when you got to a farm that you are super neighbor for, when it is not the default farm

[BarbLH]

Thanks for the update Raul & team :)

[Taz D]

Hi Tom C,
My Super Neighbor discovered this too. All I did was go into Edit Super-Neighbor and uncheck the Permanently Hired for Designing. You will need to get your neighbors who you are super neighbor for to do the same or change it to the correct farm if you were set for one.
Apparently the new release made that change as happens sometimes with new releases.

New banner over top of game about farm cash buying problem. Please read.

[christophercilley]

" Facebook is currently having issues notifying us about Farm Cash purchases, "
Why is it that FB has control of FT Cash and not FT!
I would think, that if properly done, that FT would have the control and then whatever blackmail FB has imposed (a few years ago) be sent to them!!
I'm thinking it is time to move FT to another website! Maybe MeWe or somewhere else!
Zuckerberg and co are a bunch of El Toro Poo Poo, IMHO!

[Dana1971]

The new paper ream item when you click on a post from someone who has requested it as an ingredient, it comes up as a Bedroom lease contract..??

[Taz D]

Hi Dana,
That would be correct as they are trying to get the paper reems which is one of the ingredients for that contract.

Hi christophercilley,
Facebook has control and handles all the transactions for in game purchases for all games on Facebook.

[susie_q_az]

On the neighbor settings it is putting a check mark in Permanently hired for Design. You can remove the check mark but it is automatically put it back on.

Hi susie_q_az,
The developers are aware of this problem. It has happened with the new release. They will look into this and get it fixed as soon as they can.

hi I posted re thinking lost real estate office, but might not have it yet as it only new but did it come out in the august update or this new one

[meirwen59@aol.com]

Does this glitch prevent from buying from the store any new FC items, or is it just buying Farm Cash in bulk from FB ?

[Tiger]

hi I posted re thinking lost real estate office, but might not have it yet as it only new but did it come out in the august update or this new one

Hi amanda,

The Real Estate Office was released this update not in august.

The other new facilities released this time are the Luxury Apartments Building, Turbo Mineral Mine, Ecuadorian Restaurant and the Taste Of Ecuador.

[Tiger]

Does this glitch prevent from buying from the store any new FC items, or is it just buying Farm Cash in bulk from FB ?

Hi meirwen,

The Buy Cash tab is what is temporarily disabled. If you have enough FC in your game to cover what you want to buy then you can buy FC items from the store.

[meirwen59@aol.com]

Thank you for clearing that up for me :)

[Tiger]

Thank you for clearing that up for me :)

you're very welcome meirwen :)

[Clohar]

Hi, concerning the Turbo Mineral mine can we do the same thing as for the Offshore Oil Rig I mean put on the same farm as the regular Mineral Mine and have both working at the same time

[Qivis]

I appreciate the fact that Raul et al deactivated the buy farm cash tab so quickly. I had just gotten a message about the update from a farming neighbor and thought I would buy some farm cash, went to refresh the game since the new factories were not showing for me yet and there it was. I could have been one of those individuals yelling "where's my money? Where's my money? The Daleks don't exist. They died out thousands of years ago!" and then shouting "you don't exist" before the non-existent Daleks kill me... Oops. Wrong obsession.... :p

[linda12334]

The new turbo mine does not include clay block and baking soda? Is that intended, or will it be updated to include those two items? Thanks.

[L.A.Bob]

Any projection on when the Farm Cash is going to be fixed? I already have a co-op quest for a new facility that costs Cash and I do not have enough FT Cash to buy it. I was planning on getting more FT Cash for to buy ALL the new FT Cash facilities. This is frustrating that FaceBook has messed things up AGAIN.

[marymarcel]

Hi linda12334 :)

The new Turbo mine if for the Mineral Mine, baking soda and clay block are products from the Open-Pit Mine.

[linda12334]

Sorry, had my mines mixed up. Thanks for the clarification.

Hi L.A. Bob,

The Buy Cash is available now

[Fireball]

For some reason I have the new facilities and upgrade on F42 but have not received any Farm Town official notice of the facilities and if there are any new crops or trees. I don't want to buy anything until I see them.

Hi Fireball :)

All details for the new release were not added yet.

As far as we have checked there are not new crops or trees for the new facilities released up now, only one new product, Paper Ream, produced in the Office-School Supplies Factory and used in the new Real Estate Office. :)

[Sonytone]

thank you Raul and Team for all you do!! Stay Safe and Be Well!!

[L.A.Bob]

Thanks for the repair of the Farm Cash. Now to buy some new facilities.

[Texas Belle]

Hi Texas Belle,
What hotel? The new service facility is a Luxury Apartment Building.

Sorry meant the luxury apartments.. :)

[Texas Belle]

Has Raul posted the details? I don't see anything that explains all.. we are in the dark, just buying like mad and waiting for details... thanks

[Taz D]

Hi Texas Belle,
If you don't see them in the first post of this thread then he hasn't posted them yet.

[marythies]

Thanks Raul :)

I found the game to be extremely slow curing the last 2 hours. 3 am CDT. I thought you improved that.

[lyndalu47]

My, my, we have come a looong way! - thanks for all you do, Raoul and company! I do still love to farm and i have been farming since June, 2009, thanks to you and all the others who work so hard to keep the game interesting and fun!

[debhurst51]

Hi janiewestberry :)

According to your data you upgraded your farm 42 from 22x2 to 30x30 using farm cash, 25 for each expansion.

I visited your farm 42 and it shows as 30x30. Have you reloaded the game to see the last upgrade?

[janiewestberry]

Yes marymarcel I had reloaded several times but it did not fix until I cleared my memcache. Thanks bunches for coming by and I am glad it is fixed now. Happy farming

Hi margaret cavill :)

Your SN has to go to your farms and click in the little yellow tool box located in the left botton side of the screen. Then click in the Train manager icon to open it.

I am a super neighbor, and have been granted permission to manage my neighbor's trains. When I go to her farm and open the train manager in the tool box on bottom left side of screen, it says she has no trains to boost (which is correct) and when I click on Boost Others' Trains it says there are none (which is incorrect - there are two waiting that show in her Train manger when she checks. I followed proper procedure all day yesterday and again now. I also cleared Memcache and tried again with same result. She was able to send the boosts last night as always. There are two new ones today.

I wonder if it is because the train that needs boosting is mine?

Hi TexasStar :)

You say there are 2 new trains today, are both from you?

We have checked this new feature for the game and it was working correctly, but non trains we boosted were from ourselves. We will try to check that.

Also, did you both clear your memcache?

[Alexm2012]

the new train management shows my friend has no boosters but she isnt online and it isnt working she does have boosters in her request? i know this is new but is it still in BETA Testing?

Hi Alex,
I am not sure I am understanding what you are asking. What do you mean by boosters? Are you referring to trains waiting for her to boost from others?
If she isn't on line how do you know she has trains waiting for her to boost? Are they your trains that are waiting?

We both cleared Memcache today and yesterday. I asked a mutual friend to send her a boost ... I was able to manage it fine. The 2 boosts I sent are still not showing (yes, new ones sent this morning). Because the other person's boost worked properly, I know my farm is working okay and definitely am not asking for this to be changed :) Thanks!

We were able to reproduce what you said about boosting our own trains as supernieghbors.
We have emailed the developers for clarification.
Thanks :)

Hi Texas Star and Alexm,

Thanks! I did some additional testing (response to Mary above) but had to enlist some help to get other boosts to test. As far as I am concerned it is fine the way it is. Just wanted to be sure my farm was functioning properly :)

[Tom C]

I know that for some reason ever since we have at the icon that lets us manage trains, it sometimes is not correct. It will say I have 2 trains to boost and when i go to boost the 2 trains i will have 3. One time it said I had no trains but out of habit I click the boost others trains and there was several waiting on. I never reported it because it was no big deal to me I went years with out boosting any ones trains because I seldom do gifts. Only do gifts when there is something like a new tree or flower I need.

Hi Tom C,
Not everything can be updated immediately, so if it shows 2 trains and you find 3 there when you look that just means it hadn't had time to update the counter. If everything was updated instantly then all of the work we do would be slowed down and we don't want that.

[Taz D]

Raul has added the following in the release about boosting trains for your neighbors:
***Notice that in this case you can not boost your own trains.***

[RoyalJamaicanEstate]

Does your bonus automatically save when you leave a farm if you forget to manually collect it?
I am just wondering as sometimes when i am moving fast and forget I am not on a neighbor's farm, it is usually the "Are you sure..." confirmation that reminds me to get my bonus. So now that that message is no longer there i am wondering if i will still get my bonus if i forget to click on it before i move to the next farm or leave.

Hi RoyalJamaicanEstate :)

If you finished all jobs and you click the next farm without getting your bonus, you receive a pop up informing you what you got for working and asks you if you want to get your bonus.

So you do not have have that message but you indeed have one asking you if you want to get your bonus.

[Taz D]

Hi ALL,
The problem with the storage missing has been sent to the developers so please be patient until they can find and fix this problem. You are not losing what is in your storage it is just not showing for you to see.

[Taz D]

Hi All,
Just heard from the developers and the storage problem has been fix. Please close and reopen your farms to get the fis and your storage will all be back.

Thanks for your patience.

- Bugfix: Showing only a few products in the Harvest Storage and Item Storage screens

[MammaKanode]

Does this then take product rewards away from the farmowner when a super neighbor clicks this, and if so, can we turn that off? Giving away the bonuses to them clicking it doesn't seem to make sense. Please clarify......
"Update 2: There are no rewards for dispatching and unloading other farmers trains, however, if that farmer has received train boost requests from his/her neighbours and you boost those trains, then the product rewards from the boosting goes to you instead of the farm owner. ***Notice that in this case you can not boost your own trains.***"

"Update 2: There are no rewards for dispatching and unloading other farmers trains, however, if that farmer has received train boost requests from his/her neighbours and you boost those trains, then the product rewards from the boosting goes to you instead of the farm owner. ***Notice that in this case you can not boost your own trains.***"

Hi MammaKanode :)

Super Neighbors dont get rewards for unloading and dispatching your trains, you still get your products and the Mayor bonus if you have at least 3 trains dispatched or ready to unload with 10 freight cars each.

But they do get rewards in case they boost the trains sent by your friends. Please think that Super Neighbors feature was thought to be used if, for example, you are out on holidays. Then it is better to get your trains moving no matter if your SN gets the rewards.

If you dont want your SN managing your trains you just dont have to allow the permission for Permanently Hired for Management in the SN window.

Hi Grumpdad,

You get to thier trains via the toolbox that is located bottom left of your game screen when you are on thier farm. If you have permission to manage thier trains, when you click on the toolbox the train icon in there is not greyed out.

Full details have been added to the Game Guide post about Super Neighbours, here's the link to that post: http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?p=6024726#post6024726

Can the Stone Windmill on the same farm as the Red Windmill also. And will we also have a Turbo Open Pit Mine??

Hi Alexandra_J :)

Yes, you can place the Red Windmill on the same farm as the Stone Windmill.

This works exactly the same for the Oil pum and the Offshore Oil Rig and the Regular Mineral mine and the Turbo Mineral mine.

Hi all :)

From Raul notes for the New Release:

Post Release Updates - September 14th, 4:20PM

- A new "Consuming Specific Ingredient" filter has been added to the 'Regular Facilities' dropdown in the Facility Manager. When you select that filter a new dropdown arrow will be added for you to select a specific ingredient, then the Facility Manager will only show those facilities that produce at least one product consuming that specific ingredient.

- When working together with a hired employee on a farm, the white text messages alerting you of the work your employee is doing will disappear when you mouse over them, this way they will not interfere with your own work.

- Show a warning when loading a farm that have duplicated Farm Cash facilities, this way if you have accidentally placed a duplicated Farm Cash facility on a farm, you can move it to another farm and benefit from the extra production.

[NJones277]

The warning is showing on my Farm 27 about duplicate Oil Refinery. I've checked and there is only one on this farm. I have no duplicates anywhere.

Hi NJones,
I just checked and you do have 2 oil refineries on that farm. One is along the upper left side and the other is near the lower left side.
Turn off everything except regular facilities and you will see them.

[NJones277]

Yes I do. Can't believe I did that. Is there a way to put it into storage or sell it without affecting anything else?

[Taz D]

Hi NJones,
If you put one of them in storage and leave the other one then your production will be fine as only one is producing. It doesn't matter which one you remove.

On farm 1 I get notified of duplicates of:
1) Aquarium Supplies Factory
2) Moroccan Restaurant
On Farm 2 I get notified of duplicate of

How do I find them?

Thank you

Hi Lain,

I have moved your post to the September new release thread as what you are asking about is part of this month release, which you can read up about on the 1st post on page 1 (http://r1.slashkey.com/forum/showthread.php?t=647806) of this thread.

http://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/missing/preference icon 2019.PNG When the game tells you that you have duplicate facilities (farm cash ones not coin ones) on one of your farms, it tells which facilities those are in the message, you then need to show the regular and service facilities in your game preferences on that farm so that you can see them all.

http://r1.slashkey.com/images/gameguide/missing/search toolbox.PNG If you have a considerable amount of facilities on that farm or are having difficulty locating them you can use the search tool in your toolbox to find them. Click on the tool and then type in the name of the facility you are looking for. It's up to you whether you want the section to highlight the items or hide non-matching items, the latter is probably best if you have a lot on your farm. Then click the green check mark and it will show you them. You may have to look over the whole farm to find them depending on where you placed them.

Hi Lain :)

Have you used the magnifying glass as Tiger asked you?

Please provide a link to your farms. The automatic linking does not work so you will have to create one and paste it here in a reply. Instructions on how to do that are in the following link:

Hi all :)

About the new warning pop up for duplicated facilities on a farm, we have added the following note to the main post:

- Show a warning when loading a farm that have duplicated Farm Cash facilities, this way if you have accidentally placed a duplicated Farm Cash facility on a farm, you can move it to another farm and benefit from the extra production.

Moderator's note: Please note that if you have duplicate facilities on a farm only one of them will show up in your Facility Manager. You have to go to that farm, then open your Tool box and use the Magnifying Glass to search for them by name.

I received a message that I have duplicate facilities on farm 17 like Chinese Restaurant, Donut shop, Food preserve and others. I do have duplicates but they are not on that farm. The facility manager shows they are on different farms.

I received a message that I have duplicate facilities on farm 17 like Chinese Restaurant, Donut shop, Food preserve and others. I do have duplicates but they are not on that farm. The facility manager shows they are on different farms.

Hi sdsickinger :)

I just visited your farm 17 and you indeed have those facilities duplicated. I only checked for the ones you posted here.

They are not showing up in your Facility manager for farm 17 due duplicated facilities are like decorations and they dont produce/stock anything, they only copy the information from the other facility.

To check if you have them duplicated you have to go to that farm and use the magnifying glass.

Do the following, go to that farm and put a check mark only for Show Regular Facilities in your preferences, the wrench. That way all regular facilities will show up on farm 17

Then open your Yellow Tool Box and click in the magnifying glass.

In the search box, type the name of the facility and put a dot in the option for Hide non-matching items.

Then click in the green check mark. You will see 2 of that same facility on the far. You can continue doing the same using the names for the others facilities.
If you also have duplicated service facilties on the farm, then uncheck Show Regular facilities in your preferences and put a check mark to Show Service facilities and search for the duplicated using the same method as for the regular ones.

[sdsickinger]

That worked great Thanks
I never knew to use the magnifying glass like that,

Hi bjyhey3 :)

It is automatic, as soon as you arrive on a farm with duplicated facilities, you will get the warning message.

Thank you...I was hoping so

[marymarcel]

Just take in mind that the message only shows up if you have Farm Cash duplicated facilities on a farm.

[Taz D]

Raul has just added the following updates:


Post Release Updates - September 16th, 3:00PM

- When detecting duplicated Farm Cash facilities in a farm, we now show the pictures of the duplicated facilities and offer the user to automatically search for those facilities in the farm.

- Wherever you search for something in the game, for example in the store, farm or market, you can now search for multiple things at once by separating the words by commas (,) ex: to search your farms for potatoes, tomatoes and peppers at the same time you can enter: "potatoes, tomatoes, peppers" in the search box.

- When a product has a use as an ingredient AND can also be stocked in a service facility (ex: Leather Masks), we are now showing information on both roles, i.e. what other products you can make with it and on which service facilities can you stock it.

[marymarcel]

Hi all :)

From Raul notes for the New Release:

Post Release Updates - September 17th, 3:30PM

- When notifying of duplicated Farm Cash facilities and asking to show them on the farm automatically, if you have your facilities hidden in your preferences, you will be asked if you want to make them visible again.

[Dana1971]

How can I find out which farms have duplicated facilities and/or clients on them without having to go to each farm for the pop up message?

Hi Dana,

Currently the method released this month for the Farm Cash facilities, is the easiest way to find duplicate facilities on a farm. There is no other way to easily find duplicate facilities without searching for them yourself on every farm.

Whether there will be one released for the coin facilities, we do not know at this time.

I could be wrong about the duplicated facilities, but you can line your farms up by number and check it that way, if that option is still in play.

Hi ltlred1952 :)

I think you are talking about the option in the A/Z filter in the Facility Manager where you can order the farms by Farm Number.

Problem for this is the duplicated facilities do not show up in the Facility Manager as they are not producing anything and act only as decorations.
