I also prefer the way the farms changed color as he worked..at least that way we have some idea of which ones he has worked...now we have no idea at all.....whoever changed this needs to fix it asap....

They are working on a fix. Just have to be patient.

After doing this I then tried both refreshing their farm and going back to their original hire request post. I would return to their farm but never got the work facility pop up.

On another note, now when I go to the Market to Hire someone I cry out:
"Who wants to shake a tree farm? I have fuel and the tools for YOU to use"

Thank you Developers for this!

I get that a lot Rugged Barbie, usually when I've hired more than one farmer to harvest my farms and go off to raid factories while they're working. Guessing the server can't cope with too much input at once as it also happens the few times I've tried to work 2 neighbours facilities at the same time. Even after clearing memcache and browser cache and logging out and back into FB it sometimes takes 5 or 6 reloads of the 'i would like to hire you' post before the 'sure take me there' dialogue box appears. If it's not letting you do factories, try doing the services (presuming your neighbour posts both) then going back to factories - that sometimes kickstarts the mayor back into action. Hope that helps.

Hi, I hired someone a little while ago and she didn't see any tools displayed for her to use.
I went back to the market and made sure that both tools & fuel were checked off for her to use. They were ... I just figured it was another one of the glitches that are being worked on.

But am mentioning it now, because you asked us to.

is the let hired workers use your fill not working yet?

just an update - took a break from working facs & clients from 3pm yesterday until 4am today - worked 6 people - got the oops message 3 of 12 times - rest appeared to go as advertised - beginning to think this may be something that will happen now and then - at least the mayor appeared to work them all

My search 'eye' is not working now. It was fine just a few days ago. Also, the mayor is not moving me to all the farms either. WF38 and I use Chrome. Thanks.

When that happens to me I switch to another browser. No browser is perfect, which is why I recommend having at least 2 in addition to the one that has been installed with your operating system - and yeah. That goes for Linux users too!

Also be sure it is an invitation to work the factories. In the first week or two it is easy to mistake "I just bought a frozen treats factory" for "please help me with my facilities" just because you've seen the picture. Even after 5 years of Farm Town some of us are still in the habit of doing things in automatic mode!
