I need all 4 things at the last stage so the oil has to be split four ways. 18 hours is a long while to wait!
However, that's my only moan. lol. Love the new releases. Thanks devs for all your hard work.
Can't wait for farm 9 as I really need more room to grow crops.

Just so you know, yesterday the production of fuel tanks was tripled. It used to take 1 crude oil barrel to make 4 fuel, 1 crude oil barrel now makes 12 in the same amount of time.

Very happy with all the other new changes, and the anticipation of some to come!

When your in the Facility Manager click the Done button on the A-Z tab and the animal barns that are ready will be at the top and the ones that are not will be down at the bottom so it will be easy to know which ones are ready. Hope that helps.

As much as I love the new upgrades it would be nice to get some more levels I feel that it is necessary as |I have reached the top level and now have nothing to aim for please can you tell if there are going to be more levels

As this release said .... "New levels, Farm 9 and Service Facilities coming up in the next release. Easter items coming up in about a week." Only the developers know exactly when that will be.

Sorry - I didn't know that. Many thanks for the information.
Still takes 6 hours to go through this first stage though, with no help from neighbours to get it through quicker.
I can never make fuel tanks because I always need it all for the 'petrochemicals.' I'll just have to be patient. lol.
Thanks again.

Yet here we are at a 150+ levels since the start! This is the only game that I have kept. It allows the luxury of taking a break, offers choices, graphics are a lot better. Yeah, I enjoy the game, great job!

Right now, I'm playing to make coinage for the expansions, and decorate, and that's good enough for me.

We'll see where this "Diversity" takes us, I hope it doesn't shut the game out for a lot of players. :\

Agree, will be interesting to see how the perks work. I haven't posted my facilities and just stock up now and again. My highest rank for diversity is a lil over 7500. I am thinking this feature will help with any server overload from ppl posting all the time but it contradicts the new farm and amount of coins that will be needed to upgrade it. Hey, maybe one of the perks could be an upgrade discount for the new farm!
