Purchase of Thicket Deco From Back To Nature Event Requires Immediate Build on MF

I would really like to purchase that thicket, and have wanted to for some time now.  My problem is that I want it to be on my GF with all my other camping deco.  Why does it require I build it immediately and not allow the purchase to go into the drop box when purchased?  Suzy!

This thicket.

    anything from the "build" menu must be placed immediately... go to you GF and make space, then buy it! :)

    Well, I meant to say FF is where I wanted it.  The problem is the camping event tent is only on the MF, you can't get to it from anywhere else making it so I can't buy it.  It's been like this forever, and every time this event comes I want that thicket, lol.  My boy and girl scouts need that thicket for bird watching over there.  :)

    @SuzyQ22 (US1) go to the FF,  then go to the build deco menu, the special items for  the event are there, you don't have to get them just from the event menu... you should be able to put on any farm! :)

    The first step is to click on the "Build" icon with the yellow hard hat on the flower farm in the bottom row.



    Next, you need to click on the "Decoration" icon in the top row.



    Now you will be able to find the Thicket decoration and build it on your flower farm.



    I hope that you will find this helpful.

    Well, I'll be.......
    There that d a r n thing is.  TY @JVD (US1)  

    Now GGS, I would like an explanation as to why it takes 5 and half hours to build a deco for so low value?   Gees GGS, what is up with this?  I think you might just get it back now, lol.  I cannot even imagine how much time it would take to rebuild it if I ever removed it from the farm.  I am shaking my head in disbelief.  Suzy!

    I thought a screen shot might be in order.  GGS, are you sure this is supposed to be 5.5 hours to build?  Shouldn't it be more like 5.5 seconds instead?  Please fix this.

    I also want to say I remember having this same conversation back at the last camping event.   I also remember going to the build menu and it wasn't in there.  I think there was a screen shot somewhere of that as well, but I couldn't find the convo about it before I posted this one.

    I have been playing for 3+ years and it has always been available to me in the build menu for any event... as we know the game has many glitches, so who knows what everyone sees at a given time/moment... just glad you found it for the thicket and your FF! :)

    And just FYI, if you're on a farm and need access to a different farms tasks, just click on the Farm Selection Menu on the left side:



    As you can see, I'm on the Flower Farm, but I have the Main Farm's Tasklist on the left now.. Where I could click on the Camping Event if I need to.

    I do this sometimes when I have a (Main Farm) task for collecting eggs, and I'm on the Gourmet Farm harvesting my Duck Coops and I want to check and see how many eggs I still need (without having to go back to the main farm and check the task).

    Yeah, I do that all the time, thanks @JVD (US1)   You can see the event but you cannot get to the purchasing of deco like you can from the parking lot.  That was the issue and previously not having it available in the deco build tab as well.  Suzy!

    You can. You just have to click on "Go to Overview" from the menu.



    That'll bring up the menu that like in your first post.

    @SuzyQ22 (US1)  When they reduced the build time of all new event decos to 6 seconds, they also reduced the time on the old decos in the build menu, but as those limited time ones are not always in there, it is possible they got missed, Hunter has added it to his list of things to be looked at....



    As for the 5hrs 53mins, that's because you are building it on your flower farm, where the cabin does not reach the same % reduction as the other farms, so on the main farm it takes 2 hours less time - Which is still too long. Also, as they have no VH, there will be no rebuild time on them.
