See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last update released on March 1st, 2:30PM.

Hi There,

We just released a new update with the following features and bug fixes: En Espaņol AQUI

1. Next 9 Farm Expansions for Farm 46: See prices below:

Upgrade 44 x 44: 76 Billion Coins or 50 Farm Cash
Upgrade 46 x 46: 77 Billion Coins or 50 Farm Cash
Upgrade 48 x 48: 78 Billion Coins or 50 Farm Cash
Upgrade 50 x 50: 79 Billion Coins or 50 Farm Cash
Upgrade 52 x 52: 80 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash
Upgrade 54 x 54: 90 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash
Upgrade 56 x 56: 100 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash
Upgrade 58 x 58: 110 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash
Upgrade 60 x 60: 120 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash

2. Turbo Fishing Boat 48 x 48: Fish up to 2304 *overlapped* water items at once in a squared area the size of 12 x 12 plow fields.

3. Tell other farmers how long you are going to be unavailable in the game: There is a new 'Set Unavailable Status' option in your avatar menu that will allow you to set how many days you will be unavailable. When you are unavailable, others will see your picture on a red background in their neighbour bars, ship itinerary, farmer lists and when sending you gifts and train boosts.

Also, when they mouse over your picture, they will see how many days until you return to the game.


Mods Note: You get to the Avatar Menu by clicking on your avatar on the farm.


4. Improvements to the current 'Herding Robot' tool: This is an old tool that allows you to move multiple animals at once from the farm to their animal buildings. We have added 2 new capabilities to it:

a) Enable the new 'Multiple' button in the Store for harvestable animals, so you can buy animals in bulk and store them directly in their animal buildings

b) It now works with Farm Cash animals

5. Added sorting capability to the ship port replacement screen: Also, this screen now shows the last active date for each farmer.

6. Facility Wall Requests improvements:

a) Increased maximum amount of posts from 150 to 200

b) If a farmer already has all their facilities empty, we will hide that post most of the time

7. Other Wall Requests improvements:

a) Increased maximum amount of posts from 150 to 200

b) Replaced all broken 'Send a gift' links by 'Visit Farm' links

c) Show only one 'farm expansion' post per farmer

d) Show only one 'new level reached' post per farmer

e) Show only 5 'gift requests' posts per farmer

8. Minor Bug fixes:

a) In the Farm Stats -> Facilities section, when you mouse over a facility that is located in only one farm, we now show the farm name containing that facility

b) When a product cannot be started on a facility and you decide to ask friends for ingredients, there is now an option to post to Facebook

c) Bugfix: Game crashed when using the 'Harvest All' button in the Facility Manager without owning the Manure Spreader

9. Blood Bank Supplies Factory (FC): Produces Blood Bank Supplies.

Blood Bag
Blood Tube Stripper
Blood Transport Box
Blood Bank Refri
Blood Filter
Blood Plasma Extractor
Blood Bag Tube Sealer
Blood Mixer Roller

10. Phlebotomy Supplies Factory (Coins): Produces Phlebotomy Supplies.

Butterfly Needle
Blood Collection Tubes
Disposable Tourniquets
Alcohol Prep Pads
Sharps Container
Order of Draw Card
Tube Holder Wristband
Blood Drawing Chair

11. Blood Bank (FC): Provides Blood Storage Services and can be stocked with products from the Blood Bank Supplies Factory.

12. Blood Mobile (Coins): Provides Mobile Blood Donation Services and can be stocked with products from the Phlebotomy Supplies Factory.

Enjoy!

Awesome! I always love new stuff - but I especially love how you keep making the game better - re-doing old tools to make them better - fixing bugs, etc. You're my hero. :)

bluehair Feb 27 2024 10:51 PM

where is the avatar menu?

rodkay1@bigpond.com Feb 27 2024 10:53 PM

Fantastic to see unavailable option...well done. A lot of people will love this as typing to so many neighbours/buddies was a nightmare. Congrats on this feature.

Hi bluehair,
You highlight and click on your avatar. That is the same menu you use to change your appearance or status.

Palmarina Feb 27 2024 11:36 PM

Thank you for all the fixes!!!!
Love the new facilities :)
Thank you for all the work you do :)

macwinter Feb 28 2024 03:28 AM

Brilliant!!!!
 
Especially love the new features that hide posts of empty farms on the wall, the red feature that lets folks know when you are away from Farm Town for an extended period of time. Only one post of farm land upgrades and new experience level reached, but am totally blown away by now 200 farmers instead of 150 on the wall. KUDOS!!!! Y'all rock!!

Thanks to all at Slashkey for a great update to this game we all love. I especially appreciate the limits to "other wall requests".

barbara nixon Feb 28 2024 10:41 AM

new game upgrades
 
love the hiding empty facilities, only one post of bragging rites. and everything else making the game more easy..thanks so much....

BarbLH Feb 28 2024 12:47 PM

Thanks for the wonderful update, Raul & team!!! I'm always impressed with the facilities you create for us. It must take a lot of research to get the facility details.

Palmarina Feb 28 2024 01:06 PM

Hi,
the update says:
"e) Show only 5 'gift requests' posts per farmer"
I received strawberries and asked 6x for more.
These 6 requests show up on my neighbours's walls, all 6!
Maybe the developpers should look into this again?

AnnaWalls Feb 28 2024 01:23 PM

Thanks so much. You guys are the best.

JudyD1651 Feb 28 2024 04:32 PM

Thanks for the new release. I especially like 7c, d, e. Ingredient requests should be limited also, along with bonuses. Two bonuses should be the limit per farmer, I say this because we can only get one bonus from a farmer every 12 hours and they are only good for 24 hours.

Palmarina Feb 28 2024 11:24 PM

Hello Tiger, yes you are right. I didn't see that.
I apologize.
Thank you!

Are we skipping St. Patrick's Day? It comes before Easter.

Jo57 Mar 01 2024 09:02 PM

No St Patrick's Day decor??

RIAP27 Mar 01 2024 09:06 PM

I wonder, too. St Patrick's day is before Easter!

Hi All,
I sent an email to the developers. I am sorry I forgot to ask them about this one.

Auntie Al Mar 01 2024 09:28 PM

Thanks, they could split the month since Easter is early this year.

Palmarina Mar 02 2024 01:06 AM

We can't post our bonuses or requests for ingredients on Facebook. Do other people have that problem too or is it just me?

Lara Mar 02 2024 01:48 AM

I also just got a notice that something went wrong when I tried to post my facs to facebook. They went on the facility wall requests page of my helper farm just not onto facebook.

Lara Mar 02 2024 06:03 AM

I have now managed to post my facilities to facebook so they must have fixed it.

Palmarina Mar 02 2024 08:34 AM

For me too the problem seems solved.

JAXDAW Mar 02 2024 08:59 AM

Thanks for the Easter items - what happened to St. Patrick's Day items?

chrisluvsanimals Mar 09 2024 12:22 PM

New "Away from farm" option
 
I send ships out daily and at some point during the day, one of my ports turned red letting me know they were away from their farm. If ports were closed, the ship skipped that port but mine sat for over 12 hours at the red port until I had to skip it manually.

Can the devs make it so ships automatically skip the red ports as well as the closed ones?

Thanks!
