This is a good question. I can not afford all the tools so I have determine I buy the ones that make my life easier. I usually use the forum for harvesting and plowing. I have purchased the larger boat to fish, do my flowers, and trees...since I have found people who I hire do not always finish the job. Ft is a great game and they do offer opportunities to gain FC by entering the forum comps. Well I have not been a winner to gain that cash so I use my credit card every once in a while.

Hi Trina, I moved this to General Feedback as you are not asking a question.

Gifting tools
 

Would someone be so kind as to gift me a seeder 4X4 and or a plower 4x4? thanks so much.

Hi jestdeb:)

I'm sorry but only your neighbors/buddies are able to send you a farmcash gift.

I agree about the needing the different plow sizes, but the harvester? If you already have a harvester, which obviously you do, why do you need to purchase another to upgrade your combines? You don't have to do it on real farms and the amount of time it takes to get enough FC to purchase all that is required when you are on the higher levels make the prices equivalent to billions of dollars in the real world. It's just nuts.

Hi ladylounel,
If you want to bring real farming into this the combines you see on real farms do not plow or replant. So in Farm Town's case you need the bigger harvester to combine it with the larger plow and larger seeder to create (buy) the larger combine.

Fuel
 

I used to never pay any attention to the amount of fuel I had because, since I always bought every new farm and immediately plopped an oil pump down on it, I always had plenty. However, a couple of weeks ago, I noticed that my fuel kept dropping - I had about 4,700,000+ gallons at the time. I didn't know why it was dropping, but right away, I stopped letting workers use my fuel when I hired from the Market. Unfortunately, that really hasn't helped. I'm now down to about 3,690,000 gallons even without letting workers use it - just in about 2 weeks time. I've started exchanging my gifts for fuel, but even with that, at this rate, the day will come when I'm totally out - assuming we don't get more farms and/or some other type of boost to fuel production. I've been playing for YEARS and have never had this problem.

The only thing I can think of that I'm doing differently is that I always used to load my facilities & services once each day and let that be it. In the past month or so, I've started topping them off once or twice during the day - not the clients, just the facilities. The tool for that takes fuel - but could it be causing it to drop so dramatically? Any suggestions or ideas?

Hi Susan,
I think you will find you will be fine with fuel,
You have plenty of fuel tanks in storage, so when you run out and refuel you will have enough for several months.

Ooooooh . . . I had totally forgotten about being able to refuel. Haven't had to do that in forever. Guess I'll start letting workers use my fuel again! LOL I've felt so stingy telling them they can't but I was worried! LOL

I need to know why my red manure spreader has disappeared from my tools list. It is currently on my first farm because, in order to actually USE it, I have to now physically have it on a farm instead of in storage. Before it was showing up with the rest of my tools in the "toolbox", but it has since been removed and I'm wondering why this is?
