New Release -- January 17th, 2011

[bflier]

Love, love, love the new Production Chain sorting functionality... but what would make it even better is if the facilities manager would pull from ALL farms instead of just the active one. Some of my production chain facilities are actually on different farms so I have to go through all my farms to get my goods then go back through to produce.

Thank you for adding bait! I have always been short on salmon so I am looking forward to enjoying the added fish. I do have a concern though...this morning I hired someone to fish my lakes. I asked him to fish only the lake and not the river pieces so I could save my bait for the lake. He fished out the lake and then finished off all my bait in the river before I could "ignore" him. (His avatar name was jiffyjake). Is there someway that you could separate the bait so that the freshwater bait has two categories (lake bait or river bait)? Or alternatively make it so I can choose to hire according to different fishing categories (lake, ocean, river)? The bait option would be better.

Thank you for your consideration of this issue. Love the upgrades!

you should remove the user name as they are not unique in farm town and you can be giving100 people a bad name right not. i know ive been in a market with 5 people with the same avatar as me at one time. also ignoring him will not stop him from finishing the job he was hired for (fishing) it will only make it so you do not see the person or contact them again they can stay on your farm till they choose to leave

I agree. I totally appreciate and love the bait and it will help alleviate the constant salmon shortage. I discovered today as I was fishing with glee, however, that I can't just store up the freshwater bait to only use for my big lake (the only body of water I have with salmon). If I have more bait and continue to fish my other ponds, rivers, etc, it will use whatever bait I have left. I get plenty of the other types of fish, so I don't really want to waste my bait on those bodies of water. I decided that for now the only way to really get around it for now is to only store 1 freshwater fish bait out of my gift box right before fishing my big lake. If I leave the rest in the giftbox until I need it, it won't get wasted.

Now, if the devs want to find a solution that doesn't require me storing the bait in my giftbox, I certainly wouldn't complain.

I agree with both Hornyroo and Chony. a max button for filling facilities and and auto storage for ready products. Also a check to disable reminding putting animals in their respective buildings. Thank you for all of the upgrades thus far

I have over 5,000 of each of the baits, but the last farm I went to and fished, it said the bait count was zero????

The bait you have in storage can only be used by you, or anyone else, on YOUR farm, you would inly see bait on someone elses farm if they had some in storage
