I agree with you!!! I loved the last release but I was sorry that there was only one item to make filling facs faster. I suggested in the forums that they should bring out a multi-tool that would fill every current fac and every future fac. I'd be prepared to pay 300 or 400 fc for it!

What I really want a tool for is the service facs. I find them mind-numbing. There's nothing new in them; it's just a use for existing items. Click, click, click. And I groan when we get a new facility that has to be clicked 12 times. (How did I survive before they brought out the +30 button?)

I generally only fill my facs about once a week. I enjoy the farming but I hate all the clicking - just to get more coins and xp.

How would anything like THAT be good for the game or the players....

It would discourage completely the new players

It would discourage those who don't have an extra $300-400 laying around

It would really peeve off those of us who have played and worked the game and bought the tools we wanted when we could buy them

I'm sorry if I confused you. This is a forum to express opinions and dreams and wishes (as well as gripes) and I expressed what I personally would like, knowing that I will go ahead and buy all of these tools anyway and thinking how I would rather choose to do it.

As for my dreaming, look at the Maths. Lately they've been selling us 2 tools, at around 30 farm cash each, every 3 weeks. It would not take long for us to get ahead if they would only sell us a multi-tool.

They could still keep the option for separate tools to be bought if that's what people wanted, and keep releasing them slowly, but have a multi-option on the side for those who like to pay money out ahead and get a bargain.

I know I'm only dreaming and it's not how farm town works, but my love of buying in bulk (and my strong desire to get all the multi-click tools NOW) makes me want to do something like this. lol

As for money, I find in some cases (but not all) it depends on priorities. My need to click less might outweigh my need for other things. At one point I seriously cut down on my chocolate consumption and spent the money on farm town. Then I visited the library more and bought fewer books and used that money on farm town. Some people might visit the pub less or cut down on their smoking (both things I don't do). Others might just put up with clicking the long way for another three months or so while they saved up for it. (And I recognise that farm cash tools are just not affordable for some people at all, and that there is nothing we can do about that, except to occasionally send farm cash certificates to friends, as I have done.)

I'm sorry if my post was a bit thoughtless.

plowed a fresh single plot on farm 11 planted raspberry on it and irrigated it
my local time now 3.55pm rasp showing 59 mins to ready
my local tme now 4.55pm rasp ripe and showing 3.7 hrs (222 mins) to waste
my local time now 5.13pm rasp still showing ripe and timer showing 3.4 hrs (204 mins) to waste time accurate in terms of displayed time to waste vs actual minutes at this point
ok its 6.37 pm and the rasp stilll lookin good showing 2 hrs to wasted so far timer accurate vs actual time
now down to .9 of an hr (54 minutes) raspberry plot still looking healthy timer still accurate

OK WE HAVE A PROBLEM ....AT 33 MINUTES TO WASTED IT IS SHOWING AS WILTED
looks like we have proven there is a problem Caren Katsmom was right and now it has been replicated and verified so over to the devs for a fix
mods pls pass to devs

Hi Dave, I have come across this problem too with an irrigated crop having gone to waste while the time still said it have approx 5 hours before wastage. From memory it was a full farm triple stacked of Soy Beans. Now that was really annoying. There definitely is a problem with the wastage timer.
