Matters of Convenience

A few ideas, please consider.

1.  Please include the Village Medals Reward Shop to the Farm Management screen.
There are times when I want to buy a booster for main farm - gourmet farm, and having to visit the village farm then returning back is sort of an inconvenience.  Both farm & fish markets have been added to farm management, why not the medals shop too!

2.  Please include a setting in the co-op members list whereby the list of names can be sorted by alphabetical. 
There are times when teammates needs sparkles and having to scroll up and down the list to find that player can be time consuming especially when seconds can make a difference, i.e. missions.

3.  Please move the screen for loading boats with equipment.
I don't know if its the same for others, but for me the "close equipment screen button" is placed on top the "log-out of game button."
There are times of lag or I get double-click happy--when I close that equipment screen-- I will tend to log myself out also. :(

Thanks for your consideration. :)

    All good suggestions.  I would love it if they also fixed the "flying fish" that I see when I go to the dockyard.  The fish, indicating the catch has come in, are all over the place.  On more than one occasion I've accidentally harvested from a boat trying to hover over them to get them back where they belong -- not a good thing when you're doing the FHWE and don't want to harvest, yet.

    I would like to see a timer added for Oleg.  To show how much time before he returns from a trip like the ship on the flower farm. 
    I would also like to be able to hover over the village horse meadow and see how much time is left for the current activity rather than having to open the dialog page each time. Currently it only shows how many days the horse can be in the meadow without being cared for.

    Thank you.

    I agree with adding a countdown clock for horse activity in the meadow, It would be much easier to just hover over the meadow than having to open the page.

    I usually hover over Oleg at one of the docks to see how much time is left before he returns from a trip.  A countdown clock is already included in that tool tip. Although having a timer at the right side would be more convenient, but I think space would become an issue if too many things are added to those pull out tabs.

    @Seeker1 (US1)   First off I should have mentioned I like all three of your ideas and hope to see them in the game in the near future.  Also you are right about another timer taking up space, but you know what they say, Once you have one or two the rest is all uphill LOL.  I do check Oleg on the other 2 farms from time to time but often forget completely about Oleg because there is no timer/reminder. 
     
    Couple more ideas on my Wish List:
    I would also like to mention I would like to see the layout on the main farm moved upward, there is quite a bit of sky up above that I am sure nobody would miss.  It takes a bit of maneuvering of the map to get to things in the lower left corner.  My fields are in the lower left corner so in order to plant seeds or use humus I have to move the farm back and forth to get around the build box or the minimized chat bar. 

    Lastly, it would be nice if it were possible to move the CHWE silo wherever we would like or at the very least anywhere within the parking lot.  With all the stuff at the top of the game it makes it very hard to view the amount needed until next level or the time remaining.  This is very import to have quick access to.  Considering my fields are at the bottom of the farm and I have the farm pushed up as far as possible to access them I am unable to get a good view of the silo stats without having to move the map up and down, which wastes precious moments in a timed event as such. 

    I believe this is the end of my Wish List, at least for now.  :)  
    I hope Bigfarm will consider some of the ideas in this thread.

    I also have fields located at the bottom portion of the farm (main / gourmet / flower)
    and find it annoying having to use  'zoom in / zoom out' to be able to plant-harvest these areas.  Either extending the playing area downward or re-centering the entire farm upward would be a great improvement.. Great idea. ;)

    I used to have my fields and chicken coops near the bottom of my main farm, but when I noticed that this made it difficult to reach them quickly I rearranged my farm so that my decorations are now at the bottom. Since I rarely need to deal with decorations, this seems to be the perfect place for them. If I find that I need to move production buildings even higher I will move my houses to the bottom as well. Try it! It helps a lot.

    @Seeker1 (US1) This will be to do with your screen resolution, I have passed it on to the devs, but could you please post a screenshot, so they can clearly see the issue on your screen. Thankyou. :)

    In the recent past, some players suggested to add an option to collapse the top and bottom bars  so that there is more room for the farms and less icons all around

    The suggestion has fallen on deaf ears apparently as many other ones which were definitely worth pursuing

    Even expanding the environment and adding  scroll up / scroll down arrows would do at the moment.

    Village Upgrades and Harvest Timer

    Please allow us to collect products from Mineral Metals / Timber Textile factory while village upgrades are being performed on said buildings.

    Explanation:  I will start production at MM or TT factory, then an upgrade will be started before I have a chance to collect said product.  So now... the harvest timer will say I have something ready to collect at village farm...BUT I cant collect that product until the upgrade is completed, basically leaving the harvest timer useless for the duration of that upgrade.

    The village boat and horse meadow can actually function during upgrades,
    why NOT the Mineral and Timber factories too???

    Im not entirely sure what you're asking.
    Village medals can be saved for one week until Sunday evening reset.
    I do receive a "King of the Hill" daily bonus.. if thats what you're asking.

    I only see medals at the Sunday night reset - which i either have to spend on rewards or it goes to village dollars - i have never seen any medals during the week maybe i am missing something here - 

    what is annoying is the popup has to be dealt with immediately 

    I guess tell me what a king of the hill bonus is (i do know what king of the hill means) or how to get it - i despise the CV so to be honest i have paid little attention

    thanks @Southern (US1) - yup I know how to get there - just it always has said  "0" when I looked - never check it since the first couple of months because it never changed -- yes i am in co-ops that challenge or have been challenged

    I dunno about that - the only medals we get are on Sunday night for our place "on the hill"; we don't challenge or get challenged, guess we're far enough down in the rankings that most of the Co-Ops don't care about the Village League (like us) :)

    yeah don't like them reward are terrible imo  but go with the flow of the co-op only see medals on Sunday night - since it is Saturday thought i would check and still "0" but maybe because of no challenge or counter this week 
  • We only get them Sundays, and those not spent are converted to village dollars, not saved.

    if you win a challenge in the week and don't spent the medals as you win them, they are there until the Sunday reset.
