I need serious help. Can someone direct me to (hopefully) an Instruction Booklet on how to use the garage? The info button is worthless. I have a task to Activate a tractor or something. I have no clue what anything means....I clicked the hand to "place"..... means nothing...Then theres a variety of clocks and timers...Help !!!!! Thanks!

    Question is did you build it? Stupid question, but you must build the tractor first then after it is built, activate it. The powerhouse tractor is the first one you should build, after it is built(10 Minutes), then activate it. The effects last 1 hour and it takes a long time before you can use it again. Go to larino's corner to have the tractors explained to you

    When you open the garage, there are two tabs. Farm Machines and Production Farm Machines. The Powerhouse is under Production Farm Machines. If you click the Powerhouse, you get a pic, Arrows to look at different levels, a bar made up of 7 boxes (Some maybe green, those are purchased levels), a pictographic description of what it does (Example: Garage... Arrow... Basket with 1:00... cool down timer starting at 48:00) and below that, 3 things to click.
    The first is a hand. click this to put this machine outside your garage (No actual value other than aesthetics.) The second is a picture of a tractor. If you have levels (greened sections above) this can be active or greyed out. If its active, click it and choose what level you want to run your machine at (There are 4 with increased cost and benefits). If its greyed out, you either have 0 levels in the machine, or its in use. The 3rd button is a tractor with an up arrow. Click this to see the costs of upgrading this machine.

    Also, when the powerhouse is in use, there are two ways to tell. In the first hour of use, you will get a count down clock under your happiness bar on your main farm. After the first hour, you will see the cool down timer over the big picture of the tractor in the Production Farm Machine page.

    Hope this helped.

    It still doesn't tell me what the powerhouse tractor actually does when activated and what you are paying for it to do. I have activated it several times and tried to see what difference it made in the stables and the orchards and I could see no difference at all. The description of the powerhouse is vague as heck but it does say it is supposed to help in those two areas on the main farm. I feel I wasted a whole lot of certificates building a useless machine. I hope some of the others are more useful.[am building the one for the gourmet farm to see if I can get more items baked in a day than now, that at least should be useful and payoff in profits] The others take too many toolkits and it takes forever to collect them.

    Hi Mrs.Brown,


    The Powerhouse tractor increases the amount of yield from your stables (for 1 hour), so you get more eggs, pigs, milk & dung for the hour & you will see a timer at the top of screen under your happiness meter. After the hour, there is a cooldown period before you can use it again, this period gets shorter as you upgrade the machine.

    The amount of the increase depends on which option you select & can be 10%, 20%, 50% or 80%.



    Hope that helps.

    EDIT: You will also get the increase on any stables that are already ready to harvest when you activate the machine.
