But clicking the menu option and literally clicking on the very Seeder object on my farm result in the same pop-up message saying "You need to have a Seeder (2 x 2) in your farm or your storage to use this tool. Do you want to go to the store now?" It's as though the game does not recognize the Seeder (2 x 2) I have purchased and is sitting directly on the farm where I am trying to work. I can only fix this problem currently by putting the Seeder (2 x 2) into my Storage, then placing it back onto my farm. The problem returns the next time I come back onto my farm.
Hi jabezcreed,

OK I think I'm understanding now, thank you for clarifying. I apologize for not understanding you the first time.

You mean you have placed the 2x2 seeder in one of the shortcut slots in the game bar?

If that's right, I am sorry for the questions I am going to ask, but we have no way of knowing which shortcuts spaces you may have used or what tools you placed in them and we need to try and pin down the all the possible scenarios where it is playing up to recreate it, so if you are able to supply any of the answers that would be great. It might be the same problem or similar to one we have had previously with a bigger tool when we got the shortcuts added back to the game.


I have labelled all the possible shortcut slots there are in the picture below. The additional slots are labelled A to D, the slots with out using the additional slots are labelled 1 to 5.



Questions:
  1. Please let us know which slot you have placed the 2x2 seeder into.
  2. Does this also happen when you work for someone at market and then return home, or does it only happen when you are hiring your friend or another friend from each others farms?
  3. If you place the seeder into your storage, and go work for your friend, when you return to your farm is the seeder also greyed out in the toolbox or can you still see it in there?
  4. If it does not grey out in the toolbox when the tool is in your storage, is it still greyed out in the game bar? Or does it only happen when the tool is out on one of your farms?

I am copying your posts with your issue to the relevant closed thread the developers will want them to be in.
