New Release -- October 3rd, 2020
 
See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last changes released on October 29th, 8:20PM.

Hi There,

We just released a new update with the following features and bug fixes: En Espaņol AQUI

1. 15 Halloween decorations: 5 as gifts, 6 at the top of the Halloween category at the store and 4 at the bottom.

2. 25 New Levels: Items located in the Buildings, Other, Farm Decor and Trees categories in the Store.

3. Next 5 expansions for Farm 42:

Upgrade Farm 32x32 - 48000000000 or 30 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 34x34 - 48500000000 or 30 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 36x36 - 49000000000 or 30 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 38x38 - 49500000000 or 30 FarmCash
Upgrade Farm 40x40 - 50000000000 or 30 FarmCash

4. Increased Carbon Steel Sheet production by 20%

5. Other improvements released in the past 2-3 weeks:

a) A new "Consuming Specific Ingredient" filter has been added to the 'Regular Facilities' dropdown in the Facility Manager. When you select that filter a new dropdown arrow will be added for you to select a specific ingredient, then the Facility Manager will only show those facilities that produce at least one product consuming that specific ingredient.

b) When working together with a hired employee on a farm, the white text messages alerting you of the work your employee is doing will disappear when you mouse over them, this way they will not interfere with your own work.

c) Show a warning when loading a farm that have duplicated Farm Cash facilities, this way if you have accidentally placed a duplicated Farm Cash facility on a farm, you can move it to another farm and benefit from the extra production.

d) Wherever you search for something in the game, for example in the store, farm or market, you can now search for multiple things at once by separating the words by commas (,) ex: to search your farms for potatoes, tomatoes and peppers at the same time you can enter: "potatoes, tomatoes, peppers" in the search box.

e) When a product has a use as an ingredient AND can also be stocked in a service facility (ex: Leather Masks), we are now showing information on both roles in the help screens, i.e. what other products you can make with it and on which service facilities can you stock it.

6. Turbo Open-Pit Mine (FC): This is a new facility that produces 3 times more minerals than the current Open-Pit Mine. This works similar to the Red Windmill and the Stone Windmill facilities, the Stone Windmill has 3 times more output than the Red Windmill.

Note: This facility and the regular Open-Pit Mine can be placed on the same farm and both be producing at the same time.

7. Lanolin Factory (Coins): Produces Lanolin, used in the Milking Supplies Factory.

8. Milking Supplies Factory (FC): Produces Milking Supplies.

Milk Bucket
Milking Stool
Milking Sleeves
Cow Hobble
Goat Udder Wipes
Udder Cream
Manual Milking Machine
Electric Milking Machine

New Product from a new Facility: Lanolin in the Lanolin Factory.

9. Carpenter Supplies Factory (Coins): Produces Carpenter Supplies.

Screwdriver
Wood Screws
Hand Drill
Spade Drill Bits
Jack Plane
Chisel
Workbench
Circular Saw

10. Milking Supplies Store (FC): Provides Milking Supplies Retail Services and can be stocked with products from the Milking Supplies Factory.

11. Carpenter Shop (Coins): Provides Carpentry Services and can be stocked with products from the Carpenter Supplies Factory.

12. Helping the Migration Team: For the next 3 months we will be spending maybe half of our time helping the migration team in the conversion of the game from Flash to HTML5, so new features and functionality changes will be less than usual in the coming releases. However, new facilities, new levels, seasonal decorations and farm expansions will be released as usual.

Enjoy!

--Raul

i don't thank you enuf but i do love all the hard work you put into our game..thank you..

Qivis Oct 03 2020 02:06 PM

One of my friends in Europe said she already saw new levels earlier in the week and wanted to know if I got the new farm cash for them and she was at level 1175 before she asked me about it. We both thought it was weird, but I am guessing that maybe she had some missing items that she had forgotten she wrote to support about. Until about 3 weeks ago she had been unable to request help with factories and shops and THAT was for a couple years. In any case I look forward to the new levels even if I am still trying to figure out how to spend 15.6 trillion coins! Thanks muchly Raul for the updates and the turbo open pit mine is truly handy.... (but then so is chocolate.) :D

MyFarmtown777 Oct 03 2020 02:10 PM

Hi Raul,

Thank you so much for all the updates! I'm looking forward to the next ones coming.

May I request a suggestion for a coming update to the game?

I would love to have the stored amount showing on the seeds menu when I go to plant. (Otherwise I have to check my inventory stored amount levels before planting.)

Thanks very much!

Marian

Hi Marian :)

When you get your tool to plant and the seeds tabs opens, hover your mouse on the seed picture and you will see how much is stored.

Raul, and the team, thank you all so much for the update. As always you keep it interesting and fun. Work away at the conversion to HTML 5 ~ I want to keep enjoying this game for many more years to come :-)
