Hi TwylahSkye,
Even with the purple hand you have to have a square the size of a pine tree (one square) open with nothing on it to be able to place them. Hiding other things on your farms does not free up a spot to place them. The purple hand is not going to help with layering. I t only helps you place items closer to the next item, but can not put anything on a square that already has something on it.

Hello - I have all of the hands and had previously been able to overlap ponds by putting one in each square of a 9x9 grid, however, now no matter what hand I use, what the farm has on it, or even if it has nothing on it, I am not able to overlap them. It makes me put it where there is nothing else on the grass.

Would appreciate someone looking into it.

Thanks!

Hi lvlrsSweetPea

I moved your post to the thread about Tools.

The purple hand allows you to buy and place the items on your farm but you need to take in mind you need to have a clear space the size of a pine tree to be able to place the item.

If you have more items on that farm, let say, crops flowers, trees, etc, then you have to find the clear spaces which are usually at the bottom of the farm.

Any form of layering fields for crops, trees, flowers or something else on top of those is not what the freestyle designer is intended for. If that is what you mean when you say you can't overlap, I am sorry, but we can't help you with that as we are not permitted to allow anyone to post any instructions.

Hi jcloud5078,

I have moved your post to the thread about tools and fuel.

Nothing has been changed about how much fuel you get when you refuel or how many you can make in oil refineries.

There have been a lot of bigger farm upgrades available to buy for quite some time for all farms, and we have recently been able to buy farm 45 and now that can also be upgraded to the maximum size.

A lot of famers can forget that when you do any of those or even increase what is on existing farms, especially if they are choosing to layer as well, that they will be using far more fuel to work them or even just plant them if they tend hire others to work them.

In the first post on page one there is a list of other items that can also be reasons why anyone is using more fuel than they used to. Some farmers don't always notice that they have been using more fuel until they are getting low.

Recently reported an issue with fishing as a super neighbor. The solution suggested seems to work, however, it seems like now fishing as a SN is sucking up fuel faster than it can be replaced. Looks like the coins earned, and fuel used have swapped positions. Why???

Hi Mbcashman,
I moved your post to the thread about fuel.
I am sorry but nothing has changed on fuel consumption for fishing. It has always been 1 fuel per click on all boats per water. If you are fishing with the larger turbo boats and on farms that are wall to wall waters then it will use a lot of fuel, but still is only 1 fuel for each click per however many waters you are getting in one click. If you are covering 10 waters with the boat and get all the fish in 1 click then it will cost you 10 fuel.

I just checked my fuel consumption, as a Super Neighbor. Largest turbo boat - - non stacked water - - one click used 1,137 gallons of fuel, isn't this a little too much????

Hi Mbcashman,
If it used that much fuel then they do have stacked and probably multple layers of waters in that location. Try in a location on your own farms or someone else's that you know it is only one water in range of the tool and you will see it only takes 1 per click in that water.

Why I stopped fishing at other neighbors farms. or when hired. Noticed a big change in fuel myself. Amount we get has gone way down. compared to what it used to be you aren't the only complaining about this.
