New Release -- July 8th, 2011

With all the products that require salt I think it's ridiculous that we can't mine our own salt. Why should we waste all our gifts on salt?? Please change this.

(example: I don't make just ham and cheese sandwiches because I run out of bread even with 2 bakeries). So it is nice to see part of our complaints listened to.

YAY!! I was VERY happy to see that ONE-CLICK option too! Such a timesaver. This game gets better every day!

This button will be added to the facility manager soon.

- You can now use the Water Sprinkler again in your friends farms

- Farm selection when hiring people is maintained during current game session

Thank you all so very much!! This is why Farm Town is the BEST game!
I sure missed having the Water Sprinkler when I was hired. It seems to me only a couple of us mentioned it but you listened and fixed it.
I have a feeling Store All is a typo and it was meant to read Start All, but I am very thankful for this button as well. I especially love the Order All button on the trucks. It really saves time since I own 7 of them!

Again, THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS UPDATE!
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

I have 2 bakeries that I fill all the time and a third in storage for when I need it. This is what I do when I run low on bread. I will keep the bread running all the time even if I am not loading the other facilities I will go in and max out my bread after I post facilities and they are worked. I will also ask my sister and a couple of friends to work the bakery for me so I can get some bread produced faster. A few times of doing this lets me get the bread built back up to where I am not running short on bread. One more thing it takes 4,230 breads to max out bread stuff 3 bakeries will get you 4,050 so if you get another one and ask a few friends to work them on off posting days for your other facilities you can build your bread stock up an put one of the bakeries in storage for a little while.

I'm looking forward to seeing how the hiring selection remaining through the game session goes. Does it mean that if I go back to my farm then to my friend's farm again I can still work? I'm also wondering if it is for the hiring person's game session or the hired person's game session. Meaning does it work even if my friend has logged off? If it's for the hired person's game session it would really help with those crops that are 99% when my friend needs to log off.

Again, THANK YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH FOR THIS UPDATE!
LOVE IT! LOVE IT! LOVE IT!

I think what Raul means by the game remembers your farm selection when hiring people is that the game will remember which farms you checked so if you have to hire someone else you do not have to check the farms again. It does this with the hire options when hiring people you can click on one person and choose harvest plow then click on someone else and harvest plow is still checked if it is in the same session.

Well, I may have read into it - call it wishful thinking - but it already did what you describe for me so I don't know why that was an update.

Note: I deleted that confusion from my post.

Hello,

I do not understand the new START ALL. It worked on one bakery and not on the other I have.

It only fills if you have enough ingredients. Were you possibly out of flour?

What happened when you clicked on it in the second bakery? I tried it on my two and both worked fine.
