OFFICIAL Hiring and Bonus Chest

[nikki77]

I have been hiring in the market place, and I am finding that they are not able to use my tools. I have it check in the list but a lot of farmers can't access them. Is there something I need to do so they can use them.

Hi nikki,
I moved your post to the thread about hiring.
Try doing a mock hire in the market or with a neighbor and uncheck the box for using your tools. Don't complete the hire, but close it when you get to the second pop up.

Then go to the market to hire again to hire and check the box for tools going on and hiring for the job.


It could just be that those you have hired do not understand what tools they can use. They should be handed the largest tool for the first job on the farm, but some do not understand and drop it for one of their own. I have had lower level players come to my farm , but they use their own smaller tool for harvesting until I explain to them they can use my larger ones and tell them where to find it and what colors it is.

I have noticed this same problem since the last update. I even ask the farmers and they are saying the tools are not available for them to use....even though they know how to.

Hi TracieCooper,
Only thing I can suggest is make sure that you have the check in the box for allowing them to use your tools. We have not been able to duplicate this unless it is someone new who doesn't know how to get to the right tools. When they land on the farm to work they should already be handed the best tool for the job, be it your or theirs.

When being the person getting hired, I would like to see the notification of neighbor or buddy. That way I can turn down the job. I have gotten hired many times by neighbors or buddies and not known it until I've accepted the job. If I message them why I don't want the job, after accepting it, I have been called a liar, so now I just waste my time doing jobs that don't help me with farm pass stuff.

Hi petals,

Sorry it's taken so long to see this post and reply to you.

I have moved your post from suggestions to help and support as you should be seeing the indicator of who is hiring you in the hire offer you receive so that you could reject it if you wished.

Examples so you know where that would show up:

The person hiring you should also see a blue or green indicator when they click on your avatar to know that you were either a neighbour or a buddy. If they see that then they don't have to hire you. That blue or green indicator would show to them underneath your avatar name as long as you were on one of their lists.

Could it be possible that these were very recent neighbours or buddies and that you or they may not have reloaded the game after accepting a request, before going to market to be hired?

If it's not that:

• Are they showing up on your neighbours list or on your buddy list
• Are they seeing you on their neighbours list or on their buddy list.
  
  If one of you can not see the other in your neighbours list or buddy list then that could be what the problem is.

Why does it seem like that you make more coins from a non-neighbor?
Thanks

Hi Cottond,
I moved your post to the thread about hiring and the bonus chest.
It is set up that you do get extra for getting hired by a stranger in the market to promote that type of interaction work.
