Question -no Bonus when working on a neighbors farm ... when hired at the market you get double bonus.. if i work on my neighbors farm, I do or do not get more coins xp's or the same or less as if i did work on a non neighbors farm.. and if we do not get more coin xp's or the same why do we need neighbors .. if we are neighbors we should get more coins xp's to help out our neighbors.. some do not want to work my farms because we are neighbors and will not get bonus.. please can you explain how this works.. thanks..

Your neighbors still get the normal amounts of harvested crops, trees, flowers and fish (some of them just increased), coins and experience.
Hired strangers from the market also get bonus if they complete the jobs hired for. The reason for the bonuses was to encourage workers from the market to take jobs they don't normally like to do such as fishing, harvesting trees, and harvesting flowers. The incentive for you to hire from the market is you get extra harvest.
Strangers from the market cannot work your facilities or services.

- Second fix for the missing Gift Box in the main panel
- The Eye in the bottom right and the Eye preference option now applies the same when in your farm and when hired
- The X over the Toolbox icon never goes away unless the Toolbox is closed, less flickering

apparently the 20 Feb update has caused me unable to use FT any more. I keep getting shockwave crash. How can this get fixed?

Well all morning I could not get in to Farmtown. Now I was able to do it but my avatar is back to moving slow and I am having to wait for it to do it's thing. Seems like we have gone back in time a bit ... obviously there is something wrong with farmtown and I am hoping it will get back to normal at some stage today. Is anyone else having this problem with the avatar? Very frustrating...lol
What will I do without farmtown? for today I am going to stop trying!

Literally in the last 15 mins my toolbox has reverted to the way it was before the update. It not longer shows my new excavator tool that I paid 50fc neither is farm stats showing up. So Slashkey may well have have fixed gift boxes but in doing so have messed up the tool box.. I even have to click instead of hover... and the Eye has also gone.
