Thing is, has there been any glitches with the ships that would reset the itinerary AFTER I have selected reuse last itinerary when I sent them out? Two mornings in a row I have opened a ships (on both accounts) waiting to be prepped to find the reuse itinerary from the previous launch NOT there.
I really hope I am not becoming THAT badly absentminded!!
Hi Riap,
No there haven't been any glitches with cargo ships that we know of. I always check mine after loading all the containers before I dispatch it because I have forgotten a couple times.

I hope I haven't been forgetting that much LOL
I double and triple checked this eve.
Tomorrow I hope all will be well and the previous itinerary will be there.
I do recall reading, something I never experienced before, a while back, that if you unload a ship before you start prep or after, or something like that, that it will over write your "Previous itinerary". Is there any truth to that? And if so, what should I do to avoid such rewriting my itinerary?

Hi Riap,
Yes you need to have at least 1 ship still out (not unloaded) so it has an itinerary to reuse.

Thanks! Yes, I do have ships out, though I did, somehow on one of them, did not send out in time. Came in that morning and it said the ship was not sent in the 24 hr period, which has happened before, if I click dispatch and it doesn't go, and I don't notice it failed to launch. With all the mixed up itineraries out there now I have to watch carefully for a few days, but can missing the 24 hr time frame mess it up too?

Hi Riap,
If the ship doesn't dispatch in the 24 hours then you have to start over and that also means setting the reuse itinerary too. You can tell if it dispatched because you can see the picture for the first port and it says docked at Port whoever and the port number.

Thanks, yes.
I guess I didn't really pay attention if it dispatched or not.

Good morning! This isn't so much a problem as it is I'm wondering how this works. I get a Ship docked at my Port from someone I don't recognize. If I'm on the FB website, I cannot help as it states this person is not a Neighbor. If I'm on the FT site, I can help them! The funny thing is, I have no idea who this farmer is as she/he is not a Neighbor and not a Buddy. I'll continue to help! It's just weird that someone I don't know pops up on my Port. Any ideas how this happened? thank you!!

Hi KnittyGirl,
This usually will happen if someone is using more than 1 account through Facebook and switches between them. The user data does not get transferred correctly, so it appears to be someone you may not have as a neighbor or buddy or friend. If in Facebook instead of loading it in the port manager you go to the My Requests it will have the correct information and show you who actually sent you the ship. The website may not show the correct information but it does know who sent it and allows you to load it.

Ah, thank you Taz! I do have another account so that explains it.

Hi KnittyGirl,
I suggest having 2 accounts you work each in a different browser. That way the data transfer does not get mixed up for your neighbors/buddies/friends for each account.
