New Release -- November 28th, 2009
 
Hi There,

We just released a new version of FarmTown which includes support for buying a second farm in the Realtor Office.

This release will be completed in phases, right now only 50% of the users have it, we will be monitoring the load closely and will be releasing the new version for the rest of the users over the next couple of days.

The new farm, and all land upgrades for Farm 1 and Farm 2 are now available in both, coins and farm cash.

To switch between your farms, use the Farm Selector tool on the top left, near the coins.

To move items between your farms you can use the Item Storage until we release an easier way later on. You can now add trees to the Item Storage as well.

When you hire others, you now need to select the target farm where employees are going to work. If you want them to work on your other farm as well, you will have to hire them again.

Everything is shared between farms: neighbours, coins, cash, xp, trophies, etc.

Holiday items are comming early next week.

After this we are going to focus for a while on the issues with the lost coins/xp when working for others, which seems to be happening to some users...

[***UPDATE***] This release have already been deployed to 100% of the users

Thanks

--Raul

Thanks Raul, Bert and all the other wonderful devs. Love you all! Mwah! I don't mind waiting for it. It gives me a chance to get the coins together. http://www.millan.net/minimations/sm...rummersmil.gif

Thank you Raul, for all of the upgrades and for focusing on the lost coins/xp now :) I'll happily give up any hopes for winter/holiday stuff in exchange for the xp glitch to be worked out!

Just bought my 2nd farm with two upgrades. Everything went smoothly. I am soooo happy with this new upgrade...Thankyou everyone who made this happen.

Capt. Conor Nov 28 2009 05:41 PM

i love you lmfao, JK but honestly THANKS SO MUCH!

bigmama1965 Nov 28 2009 05:42 PM

Will there be holiday items?
 
I just reached level 60 and am getting ready to create my farm with manor and pool, however, I wanted to hold off as I figured Christmas stuff would be arriving which would mean a whole new look. I am wondering when u say you are going to focus on ironing out glitches, does this mean that Christmas stuff won't be coming? I am not complaining, would much rather it run smoothly than to have Christmas lights but I don't want to get everything set up and then see Christmas stuff released a week later.

Thanks.

Miss Libby Nov 28 2009 05:44 PM

Aww... I was hoping the winter stuff was going to be available, so I guess this means that there will be so much of it that we will NEED that second farm to hold it all.

ROFLOL

Thanks so very much for the second farm. I JUST made level 44... but my farm isn't yet one of those who has the option... so I will wait til I get my turn. THANKS!

Hey, If we are putting crops on the 2nd farm, how do we hire people to work at that one instead of at our normal one?

Someone posted the link to their farm since they were in the 10% that got the release. There is a diamond at the top of their farm that allows you to go back and forth between the two. I am guessing harvesters can also. OK I guessed wrong!

Raul added this to his original post re: the update;

Lost XP and Coins
 
So are we going to be able to get back the lost points? I just lost another 112 points. It gives you the correct amount and then when you leave the farm it subtracts. I don't care so much about the coins but I certainly want the points back. Thanks

shiylo Nov 28 2009 06:40 PM

Glad to see all the changes and updates coming but would like to know how the 10% was setup I went several times to relator office and coming up with nothing,So glad to see this been waiting a long time big hugs for a grand job...

Did you refuel at any point? Because using one makes them all go when you refuel.

brian954 Nov 28 2009 06:56 PM

Just saw the upgrade realtor screen.

It appears you cannot add land to your current farm, you can buy a new 12 x 12 farm for $3 million coins, and then upgrade that. You also need to be Level 44.

I saw this on someone's farm who is Level 16...

You can also buy the second farm for $120 FarmCash - that does not say you need to be Level 44 if you buy it that way...

it's about time......

niknik007 Nov 28 2009 07:12 PM

Is it possible to move animals and flowers between farms? They can't go into storage. I would like to move my animals to the new farm along with their barns, stables, etc. Thanks!

reefcomber Nov 28 2009 07:15 PM

Can you only buy a 12x12 for, oh my gosh, $3,000,000 or will we be able to get more land for our current farm.

DTSkynyrd Nov 28 2009 07:17 PM
