for example before the increase was implemented it took 1 Petrochemical barrell to make a batch of 50 Turpentine

Now after the increase was implemented the batch size is 65 it still only takes 1 Petrochemical barrell to make the 65 so no extra strain should occure on the petro barrells

anouther example the oil pump used to be a batch or 1 crude oil barrell costing 1000 coins for the batch of 1 now the production was doubled to a batch of 2 but the batch still only costs 1000 coins so effectivly the cost per barrell has halved. (shame real fuel costs dont halve lol)

hope i have helped

well ... the increased production is a plus, but since it doesn't use any extra petro barrels I don't think that's the answer. I have 1600+ crude oil barrels and the refinery is at max.

I have another account on facebook where I also have farmtown. That account has 2 oil refineries, both at maximum production with 63 barrels of crude in inventory, and has all 5 products in the petrochemical facility maxed out, with 438 barrels of petro left in inventory. Both accounts have three oil wells.

I'm not a mathematician so you might want to double check it. The refinery should produce 84 barrels of petro each week (3 barrels @ 6 hrs = 12/day x 7 = 84). It seems each one of the products in the petro facility needs 28 barrels a week (1 barrel @ 6 hrs = 4/day x 7 = 28), which would be just right to keep 3 products at maximum production. Something appears to have happened to the production ratio of my petrochemical plant during the upgrade. I'm short about 30 barrels of petro. Don't know if it was in my storage or in the facility.

Does anyone have another explanation? Since I did the math now, should I post it in another thread?

I wouldn't want it to MOVE but I would like to see it over there too. I would sure have to recruit a bunch of my current neighbors and friends over there, and finding at least 30 people willing to start over might be a difficult challenge.

Also I read somewhere in this thread that someone mentions about a gas station where we sell our fuel. That's a great idea. Neighbors can click on the gas station and purchase what fuel they need - we just put in a certain amount and sell it to them for double the cost like the real gas stations. LOL



ditto.. i also reckon its a great idea

i think more interactive farms between playwers would be great - our own markets where we can add stuff to the market which we want sold, and neighbours can pop on over and buy when they are on.. if FT is looking for a new gimmick, i beleive this is it!!

Ive just noticed that the Car Air Freshener has been added to the Towmart. Was this part of the last release that I missed or has it just changed?

The Pot Pourri is still in that and the Hotel though and the Scented candles that and the Banqueting hall. Also wish they would have Cola, the Strawberry/chocolate ice lollies and Farmerade in fewer places.

Since the new release I cannot use any of my farm tools other than by hand. The harvester, plower, shaker, and chainsaw/log truck do not work. I have plenty of fuel and yes they are in storage, clearing cache does not work. Thanks.

Are you off-line? What is your language set to?
You can tell if you are off-line by looking at the plug shaped icon up top. If it is red you are not connected to the server.
You can check your language by going to either the map or to your preferences (wrench up top).

Hi Ensure that your connection plug up the top right of the game screen is green if it is red it mean you are in offline mode and you will be invisable to other people as they will be to you.

Hope this helps

I know we need/want the upgrades, but games people play I think look forward to leveling. Tool for the flower shop may be okay but I would like some shorter grow times. I have never maxed out my flower shop and I have one farm that is nothing but flowers.

Me, too!!
