    Flower Farm decos?  What about getting back my ENTIRE Flower Farm back and in an operational mode!!!  and since the Ship and the Greenhouse are found there too, they need to be functioning also!!  So not good to wake up again and find out this was not a bad dream!!
    Hi, have you tried going to the flower farm using the sign post and not the toggles on the right hand side of the screen?  My FF was in op mode every time I visited and then a coop member suggested using the sign post to the left of the coop tree and it worked straight away.

    Is there a chance we get the Rotate  and  Reset Cursor back on the Farms and not having to go to  Layout Mode?
    some times you just have to change the location or rearrange something and it takes us to the Layout Mode and is a hassle and unnecessary so many steps.

    @Wulwina (US1) if you click the item you want to move, on the left of the ring menu there are tools, if you hover over that, there is an option to move or rotate
     
    edit to add: Can only be done if the item is NOT ready to harvest...

    absolutely loved the new update

    great job goodgame :)

    new land is always nice, and gives us something to keep working towards for long-time players

    flower farm having to be redesigned wasn't that thrilling though, but no use crying about something that already took place.

    I upgraded my silo to the new level and I cannot harvest it......I think because the inventory would exceed the storage amount.  Normally it would then sell the excess when you re-start the silo.

    The BIG issue with everyone in my co-op is losing almost everything that was put into inventory to accommodate the new Flower Farm shape.
    Everyone worked really hard to earn the decos and some even lost fields/orchards.
    The real kicker is they compensate for Viking losses before fixing things on a permanent farm that people have worked hard for over a much longer period of time.
    What kind of sense does that make?
    Then a moderator says 2 days ago there will be a "hotfix" for that tomorrow(which was yesterday).
    Really? Where is it? Then throw a Hard Worker at us- supposed to be a distraction from the issues?
    Not working, folks!

    Here is a new bug I am seeing since yesterday, a mixed environment when moving from a farm to another, like in this case  ranch / main farm mix



    That is a weird one PCA, not come across that one yet.
    On the testfarm this also happened. Just clear cache and log on again.
    As many bugs of the testfarm are not fixed but copied onto our live farms....this is the only way for now.

    You are probably one of the few (like me) that had no trouble in placing all buildings, fields and deco's on the flowerfarm. But have some compassion for people that did loose all kinds of stuff

    It goes away restarting the game, but will have to be looked into as we cant restart after every click



    SO weird! :o

    My flower farm has not even been operational since the switch......let me explain in detail.....I have NOT been able to harvest ANYTHING since the new layout appeared.....so YES, I agree......not all of us are in the same boat & some of us are having real issues.

    my main farm has gone from -88 to +400 production costs ... hope 'they're' going to compensate players with the minimum of what they've lost and more
  • Katskomfykradle (US1)Katskomfykradle (US1) Posts: 54
    SO .. I HAVE to wonder WHO'S responsible for the decision made to take the Test Server live, when the bugs weren't even fixed?? Whoever you are, did you do that with even the slightest bit of intelligence of the CHAOS you would create??
    And to you FEW who "LOVE" this change, and/or haven't had any challenges....based on ALL I have read here, and continue to read EVERY day, WE, the ones who have these UNRESOLVED issues, with more issues popping up STILL, are frustrated, ticked off, and generally all around NOT happy farmers.
    And to the Big Farm Powers that be.... I STRONGLY believe you REALLY screwed the pooch on this one.
    The game has QUICKLY become MOSTLY aggravation/annoyance, rather than FUN... and games are suppose to be FUN.
    PLEASE GET YOUR COLLECTIVE HEADS OUT OF YOUR BACKSIDES AND FIX THIS

    New plots and upgrade levels - OK.

    Feeds/ferts/humus on the ring better than before, just a pity we can't see how much of feeds/ferts/etc we have when the building is busy.

    All that happened to the horses, ship, mine, greenhouse, garage - bad ... VERY BAD !!!

    Ruining the flower farm - pointless, stupid, terrible ... total disaster !!!

    Additionally in my case - losing Sand Palace, Sand Fortress, a few high lvl swimming pools, and a few other decos on the flower farm  - heartbreaking   :'(

    OK, anyone missing runes on the rankings page?  This is not my farm, my farm cannot afford temp farms and I have chosen to not do them.  Until suddenly I am forced into the 2 extra slots on the ship so it sits there for 6 hours before Capt. What'shisname decides to pull anchor and leave.


  • MRG1 (US1)MRG1 (US1) US1 Posts: 1,554
    @CookieHugs (US1) never noticed that but mine shows 0 reunestones there too. It must be another display error, as I am earning runestones (have been buying seeds as I go along)
  • CookieHugs (US1)CookieHugs (US1) Posts: 308
    MRG1 (US1) did you receive the hard work reward?
  • MRG1 (US1)MRG1 (US1) US1 Posts: 1,554
    edited 22.09.2016
    No, but I am still on the first chapter. My Viking farm was stuck for 4 days because a house wouldn't finish building. It was stuck at 00:00 for almost 4 days, so I could only make feed and tunics.

    Maybe someone else can let us know if they received a HW reward  on the island yet...
    @CookieHugs (US1) You should maybe let a moderator know about this just in case.

    What the heck did you do to Big Farm? I can't get to any where or do any thing!!! Try to ship items and it takes me to the flower farm, (in put your stuff in storage mode) it won't let me load the ship, it won't let me move stuff around, and it won't let me off the page!!! I've had to log off' then log off, then log back on 3 times!!!

    One thing I really like is when I hover over the info button on any building/orchard/field/decor, I can instantly see the footprint.  I hated having to actually click to see how big anything was.  This is a nice improvement.

    When I clicked the ranking button right from the map it showed 0 Runestones at first. Then I clicked the question mark, tabbed over to rankings there an it does show runestones earned there. Then I went back to view it from the map and the runestones are there now.

    Great shout there @MRG1 (US1)! Big thumb up to you for figuring that one out :smiley:
    I can finally see how many runestones I've earned so far... and it's disappointingly low... Still, it's visible now.

    The flower farm doesn't work. I cannot harvest flower farm and George and his machine want flower farm products.

    No access to the ship either. Clicking somewhere else, like the boathouse or the dock won't help. 

    Some of my coop members can use both ship and flower farm. I've tried different computers and different browsers but nothing helps. I guess I need stop playing. This isn't fun anymore.

     I seem to remember having read somewhere that if you change your settings to show animations (or not), it might help with the boat but I can't promise you that's the actual solution. Fingers crossed that does the trick!

    Ahh good to know the customer workaround doesn`t work, I will scratch that from the useful list. Its possible that reloading the game would produce the cash if they do take the goods, but really to do that for every customer would get old fast. Lets hope they are fixed soon, glad you have your ship back though. :)
    Selling to the vendors  only misses calculating once in awhile.  Sometimes if you wait a few seconds it will show up, other times logging out and back in will show the sale and money added to the bank.   You knew about this on the test server so why you implemented this upgrade without fixing it there 1st is a mystery to me.

    Now can you address my issue of Viking Island task saying I added the certificates and have opened the island?  I didn't and neither have several others in this forum.  I have been playing for almost 2 years now and have never done this island.  I don't want to do this island yet.  I have enough seeds to see me through and now I can't fill ships because of it.   Maybe only 5 of us mentioned it  but we can't be the only ones affected by it.
     I understand that only a few of us have mentioned it but it is still an issue and for me it is a big one.
    @tessa17 (US1) This is a known issue & there is a thread for it here.  As far as I know the cause has not yet been found, but we should know more after the fixes have been done to recover missing items.

    PCA (GB1) said:

    Not sure if this problem has been mentioned yet, we can no longer see what type of library each player has

    We do see libraries in every farm, but they all look the same, and they  appear identical to our own library


    @PCA (GB1)  Well spotted! - We did some testing & could not see any library bigger than our own, but we could see smaller ones on new farms. It has been reported, thank you. :)
