Ok Al Im tying my brain up in knots here - help please.

If Im getting(rounding up) 40% free cheese which will use less milk it will mean I STILL need the 3 dairy processing plants wont it? It wont be until I get the top Dans in say the Pizza Restaurant I will need less cheese and be able to get rid of a Dairy Processing plant. Or is that wrong.

What I WILL be able to get rid of is some of the cows and cow sheds.

I liked it the way it was before (overfilling facilities). I don't want free crude oil barrels I want more! I spent the last year planning crops, trees and flowers required to fill my facilities adding more as I added facilities. Now as I increase in belt/dan levels the requirements go down. Requirements are now an ever changing target. Do I remove trees and flowers no longer needed? Do I try to calculate and sell the extra input materials no longer needed? Part of the challenge of the game for me was matching the inputs to the facilities. Now that is an ever changing target until all products have reached the maximum dan level. I would rather see the over filled facilities and the amount of product completed be changed to match the overfill so it takes the same amount of time or friends working to empty the facilities.

I dont believe the devs will change it as it was never intended that the facilities would go beyond 100% that was a glitch in the initial coding.

The way it was before with the overfilling facilities didn't do what you wanted either. It still took the same amount of time for each product - 15 (or 7) days for 100%, not necessarily 15 days to empty.

OK - I know I'm not supposed to ***** & complain in this thread, but.....I do love the "Dans" thing. However, is there any way to allow them to be placed into the background somewhere? My problem is, each & every "Dan" I receive cause me to have to respond to it (yes, I want to "share" them with others so that we all can reap the rewards). As soon as I respond to it, I have to "restart" (i.e., hhit the "play" button) my farm - naturally, that means that I have to re-commence whatever activity I was doing. If they could be sent to the background or made to go "idle" until I'm ready to deal with them that would be better. I'm running IE9 & Windows 7 - I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the problem I'm having...

I haven't ever had to restart after sharing a belt bonus. What happens that makes you have to restart? Have you tried clearing your cache or tried another browser to see if the same thing happens in it?

Yup -- been there, done that.

My only complaint about the facility belts is that when I have worked my facilities they start popping up and if I go to work someone else's facilities it makes it difficult cause the dan notifications and the facilities work request are fighting for the screen. Solution is to wait till their done, but then I miss out on getting top goodies.
