One thing I did notice is a delay in the harvested items (extent or highlighted) to clear the screen. Seems like the graphics are somewhat slow after the release. Not a bad problem, but just a little different than before.

Glad to hear I'm not the only one having this issue. Seems my water items don't disappear once emptied as well so I may move on to the next water item that is slightly overlapped to make it appear larger. Hope this clears up in the next few days as it is very annoying.

Thank you!! Great new decorations!! I have a suggestion, but not sure where to go with it, so will do it here. Can we get a question that asks "Are you sure you want to dispatch ship?" just like we're asked if we want to leave a farm. Finding it easy to click on the dispatch ship button instead of start container. Thank you

This already happens when you click on dispatch ship it comes up and says dispatch now check or x. What else are you wanting to come up?

I was thinking I would never hire anyone to work for me again just to avoid the large boxes.
Nice fix!

YES!!! ME TOO!!!! I hated having duplicates of my harvests stored. Maybe I'll start hiring farmers to work for me again! YAY!!! :D

Edit: Nope, not upgraded for me yet. =( Wait, is this just for seed crops or for everything?

Hi Time1ess,
It is for everything that you would get large,and regular boxes.
"When sorting by Stored Amount in Storage and Market screens, first the regular and large boxes are combined for every product and then the sort is presented, for ex: if you have 1000 regular cotton boxes and 2000 (Large) cotton boxes, we will assume your total cotton stored is 3000 and will place it accordingly in the crops list"

How about every once in a while, putting FarmCash on sale. Many of us don't have the ability to spend $5 a shot for only 25 FC. Thanks!

I follow the Facebook Games page as from time to time they will post that some store (Target, Dollar General) is running a sale on Facebook gift cards, generally at gift giving times like Christmas. In December I got a $40 gift card for $32.

Thank you very much Raul for the new release!

Sorry but I think these as unfair to people on the lower levels (I'm 589) It's just to confusing when you try to buy them. For example the 5x5 tells me I can only send it. I'm up to the yellow (again confusing as I don't know how many fields it plowes at once) yet I can't buy the 5x5 ?

Sorry but to me it's just another money making scheme by Slashkey. I know they have to make money but ATM I spend $50/$70 a month so I can't afford any more. Maybe if they explained what is needed in the tools section to buy one, like they do with the other ones...4x4 harvester, plower, planter to get the combine I'd buy them but for now, sorry.

Hi CraigTH,
It is explained in the Game Guide Tools chapter. You need to own the tools at the 16x16 level before you can purchase the EX tools. These are not new tools for the lower 5x5 and 6x6 level tools as they do 16x16 and higher amounts of fields if they are overlapped.

Wow, someone's using their brain. *gasp* Totally agree! I have no idea how many coconuts/avocados/apples/oranges/LEMONS I have planted but why do I need so many??? Surely you get more than one per tree in the real world. I suppose we may get this someday in the form of a new tool that costs farm cash to double or triple our harvests. I have 4 farms of JUST TREES plus trees 8 deep on the outer edges of almost all of my 20 farms. =( This could be applied to flowers as well. I have 2.3 farms of just flowers! I have actually gone through and calculated how much I would need to grow to stock my facilities and not run short. One thing I can say about this game is that my math skills have not diminished. ROTFL!!!

The brain part is the interesting part for me on this game. I will leave the decorating angle to others.... I am up to 296,484 trees spread out over 8 farms (all layered twice - or equivalent to two farms each for a total of 16 farms worth of trees). Of these 14,129 are coconuts..... I track the balances in a spreadsheet to make sure there is enough of everything and the balance is increasing... Also have 165,698 flowers spread over 3 farms - (yup layered to give me equivalent of 6 farms). Was able to max out the size of all my farms. One farm of water items only.... Got to get the fishes. I plant all the trees on a farm based on their growing time to ensure everything on that farm is ready at the same time. Irrigate and manure them to increase yield :)

Challenge for me is to manage whole operation to maximize production and generate lot of coins...

So the new tools are great, and so is the new land expansions... Gives me more room for trees when needed....
