Post-Release Updates - November 2nd, 8:40PM

- Multi-planters and Transplanters now works correctly with the Water Lily and Lotus flowers. Notice you can put those flowers on top of water items like ponds, rivers, etc.

- Users joining the Neighborhood Chains Contest on Saturday or Sunday were putting into groups where the amount of facilities of each neighborhood was very unbalanced, we fixed that today, if you still experience something similar in future contests please let us know.

Post-Release Updates - November 9th, 9:40PM

- Released the Jewish Restaurant and the Caper Bush.

Post-Release Updates - November 14th, 5:00PM

- Bugfix: The Capers fruit was showing in the Non-Ingredients (for me) filter in the Marketplace, even when you have bought the Jewish Restaurant.

Known Issues

- None

So far two new items in existing facilities: paper filters in the paper mill and manganese ore in the open pit mine.

rocker grrrrrl Nov 01 2016 09:49 PM

Thanks for the update! I bought the 2 new coin facilities with no problems, then went to buy the new tree and flower tools. It won't let me buy them... It's just stuck on "Loading Tree Shaker 0%" Retry 3 and that's it. Is it maybe not really ready to buy yet?

slimpat Nov 01 2016 09:55 PM

I got the 3 facilities and 2 tools with no problems cant wait to use them and see what else we are getting

Hi rocker grrrrl,
Try clearing your memcache and check again. The graphic may not have finished loading.

Farmer_Susan Nov 01 2016 10:06 PM

I've bought the 3 facilities and the 2 new tools. Started all my Open-Pit Mines and Paper Mills for the new products. Anything else anyone has found? This is like a treasure hunt or something! LOL

mcdaddie Nov 01 2016 10:09 PM

Me too now I don't have to guess anymore. :D

Multiplanter not working with 2 flowers
 
The multi-planters are not working with the lotus and the water lily. I am not sure if this is intentional to only work for a single rather than multi-planting formats? Thanks!!

supertrucker Nov 01 2016 10:21 PM

not sure why they decided to number the little blocks that identify farms, it's kinda counter-productive... hovering your mouse pointer over a block gets you a "go to (farm name)", so why number them as well? while i'm on topic, i'm sure most of us can count the little blocks ourselves, and to be honest, i don't care how many farms my neighbors have in their 'farm' - i'm not about to rush out and buy more just to keep up with the Jones's, the Rockefellers, or the Kennedy's... having said all that, is there an option to NOT show the numbers, if we don't need/want to see them?

Shellgirlmtl Nov 01 2016 10:24 PM

Excellent!!!... Thank you Raul & Team... :D

boduke66 Nov 01 2016 10:30 PM

Thanksgiving items are out too,not sure if there are any new items in it or not,perhaps someone else may notice any new items.

rodneycs Nov 01 2016 10:39 PM

well I won't be buying the new tools as they are only suitable if you plant in blocks rather than rows. All my trees are planted in rows at the most two deep. If the tools were in long rectangles instead of squares then they could be of use.
By the way Raul: Ships HAVE not HAS.

Hi bodukes,
The Thanksgiving items are out for 2 reasons. One is this is November and Thanksgiving here in the US is the 24th. The second is there are items in it for this month's contest. We have been asking for the holiday items on the 1st of the month for several months to accommodate those who do the Best Farm Contests each month.
If there aren't any new items in it (I haven't looked) then I am sure that they will be released soon.

boduke66 Nov 01 2016 10:54 PM

Eucalyptus oil in the Essential oils factory is new as of this update,just for everyone's fyi.

The numbers on the grid have nothing to do with your farm number and where it is located in the grid. The numbers are in order the top left will always be 1 even if you move it to the 30th place. Not sure why they added them I like them but for those that don't just ignore them no need to have a turn off feature for everything someone doesn't like.

Buddy Nov 01 2016 11:34 PM

Cool!! Thanks a lot!!!

Sorry to end your dream but eucalyptus oil was existing before this release. But relatively new anyway.

I thought that was the case also but found that if you select the multiplanter (I used the White one) and then chose which layout ( I chose the 4X4 = 16 block) that as soon as I started, the first flower appeared, then magically the rest did also, so I then moved to the next spot, one flower showed, the rest appeared shadowed out but they then cleared and were planted.. all new flowers are now planted on my farms.. :)
