It has not been just loading of the other games either. It has been general game play as well. And the loading of crops, trees, and fish when working for other farmers has sped up by quite a bit when using the green tools. In fact, much of the time today the black boxes have popped up and vanished too fast to read them - like the days when we were stuck with just 2 farms and no working facilities. This suggests that it is a problem with Facebook and not Slashkey itself.

You are missing the point. The slowness I speak of is not when working on your farm. Those performance issues in the past were understandable. This update improved performance. Much appreciated. The slowness i'm speaking of occurs after using the big tools (combines and seeders) and moving to the next farm to work. THAT is where the slowness is. It IS a Slashkey issue. It has nothing to do with Facebook.

Like you I have same issue, yesterday planted a farm, went to load next one it took 3 mins 40 secs. No buildings, or flowers, or animals trees hidden. Black box sating en queuing. The game is being ruined by the speed or lack of it

I don't know quite what the issue is, but could it be your computer speed rather than the game?

I just jumped from one farm to the other with all trees, flowers, animals and decorations showing. The only thing I had closed down was 'buildings' and it took 17 seconds to jump from one farm to the next ..... and that is with layers

My farms aren't all full size, and I still get impatient with the jump from farm to farm but with all the stuff I have on them I certainly can't complain about 17 seconds.

ps: Since writing the above I've checked all my farms for jumping between them speed, and the quickest of the heavily developed ones took 8 seconds, so my thinking is that it can't be the game that is the problem.

Helen,

It is not the computer. This slowness occurs when moving between farms after using the large tools (combining and seeding)

FCM .. I totally agree with you .. I have the same problem. It takes 4eva to save and to move between farms when using the 3 in 1 tool
