yes, the forklift allows you to move all products from facilities to storage, one click per facility instead of 3-8 clicks per facility. ok. In facility manager, when i put the facilities in "done" order, then start clicking "Store, Store, Store" it times out. that's NOT time saving if I have to reload.... its not my computer. i click quickly on fish and it doesn't time out.

the forklift could do more - like move gifts to storage or be used on neighbors facilities ... to add value.

all i'm saying is that the forklift is NOT worth 40fc as is... just a warning for people considering it.

spending FC on big plow or harvest tools, they ARE worth the time saving.

does the facility manager work well for all of you?

I like it for clearing out products that are done, but it takes forever to use it to load up facilities because it times out or slows everything up (won't work until the picture of each place reloads and sometimes that takes a long time). So ... I only use it for half the intended purpose. Still go farm by farm and facility by facility to load them.

I use the facility manager daily. I have no trouble with it loading or emptying promptly. I do maintenance on my puter weekly and have now gotten in a habit of also clearing the macromedia files as well. You might check the memory/ram on your puter. Happy Farming !

thanks for the ideas, but I clear all my caches and macromedia regularly too. Like I said, clearing the facilities always works great but loading them stalls. And I just upgraded the RAM on my computer a few months ago ... specifically for this game

emptying them doesn't work unless the graphic of each building is displayed (and it disappears after working on one place so I have to wait until they all load again to do the next one). Going farm-to-farm works quickly but I have over 70 facilities so I was happy when the facility manager came out.

fyi - this isn't something new happening ... has been working that way from the start for me.

What is the level of storage that you have set for the macromedia files? This should be at least 100KB, but 1 - 10MB would be better. This is the file all the images are stored in.

thanks for more hints ... I've had the setting at 100KB but when I clear them, it's rarely more than a few KB to clear. I changed that setting to 1MB but doubt that will do anything since it's not even getting to the 100KB.

not sure I understand why this happens, but I do appreciate your ideas.

I suspect it's a RAM issue. I have an older computer that's like you describe - takes forever or times out and boots me off. But it's a breeze on my newer computer. I love it on the new computer but the older one, yeah, it's a pain to try to use it.

This is not a true statement. They used to delete the update threads when a new update came out so you can not go by the list of update threads in this section. Now while it is true that we have had at least one update a month for some time now that does not mean we will get one this week.
