    Yeah i've warmed up to the library a bit since the update except for the corn and feed books and the fact the library sticks out like a sore thumb on the farm.

    We can easily pick up a few extra corn by clicking worker bubbles so why should it cost 490 gold to gain that measly amount. Having said that the wheat and cabbage books are a reasonable deal and makes a few field upgrades unecessary which in turn saves more workers for other things.

    Missions will still never be fair though so while I praise the library for additional wheat and cabbage I still scoff at the idea since its ruined the fairness of missions (not that they were ever fair in the first place).

    See? It's not that bad :)

    Also, with some changes to the Farm exterior coming pretty soon-ish, I'm sure you even might like how it looks like ^^

    Well I gave the library a try and I don't see a difference at all Still only getting 490 apples and it's taking the same amount of time. What happened?? Should be a 15% difference. That sure is gold wasted.

    its not 15% its 15 extra apples.the books for the orchards are pitiful and a waste. hopefully they will be increased in the near future.

    hi can you tell me if lets say you buy the first book for apples you get the extra apples ok now does those extra apples count when doing projects.

    honestly couldn't agree more its a good fun game but literally every effort seems to be put into how they can squeeze people out of more money not how they can improve the overall gameplay which will make people want to spend more in the first place lol. kind of a shady continues slew of tactics in my opinion

    The short answer is yes, both the cooperative projects require you to collect apples so the bonus is recognised for the projects. :)

    This may be random and there may be a post out there already, but is there a list of what each level of the library looks like and how many books you need to purchase to achieve it? I know I can go around and look at all of them, but it seems like there are such subtle differences I cant tell. Thank you!

    Are there plans for the library to show information about its LEVELS?

    EXAMPLE: When you click the garage and go INFO, it shows how many machines must be upgraded to reach the next LEVEL.

    I'd like to know how many books (boosters) must be purchased to get the next LEVEL...
    OR must I buy one of each book then it upgrades the library and changes the picture??

    I also would be interested in this information, and I have a library question myself.

    Some days when I log on my library has 4 lit roof windows and I can see quite a lot of the bookshelves. Later the aspect of the library will change and there are only 3 roof windows and the bookshelves are smaller. This happens quite a few times a day. Does anyone know the reason for this please? Thanks.

    buy what you want, when you click the book it shows there what level your at and how many levels you have left to buy. 8-)

    What I mean to say is:
    How many books must I purchase for the picture of the LIBRARY BUILDING to change.

    Buy one book of each category??? Buy 10x books? Buy 20x books?

    I am bummed at the loss of my beautiful library building. When I started buying books in the flower farm, I found my library building gone and a gazebo and hole in the ground to replace it. I am not happy.X(

    I am curious about the changing aspects of the library. My library started out looking like a one-room schoolhouse. The top-ranked player on my server has a gazebo that appears to have an underground wing. When does my library change appearance? I've noticed it growing gradually as I upgrade my books. (I've also noticed a MARKED improvement in my field missions since I fully upgraded the corn and wf books.) I wonder if someone could post pics of the various stages and what prompts them.

    All I know is that, as you pointed out, the library changes and gets bigger the more books you buy.
    However, there's no way to see exactly when it will be upgraded. Not in the game at least.

    I think that's a shame. Even the garage has an info window where you at least can see how many tractors you need for the next upgrade..
  • edited 21.02.2015
    Yeah, I wish you could see the upgrade stages too. :( I have three books and I think mine is level two. At least they show the upgrade stages for the mine. That is my favorite background object. It looks so rustic and nice.

    There is no information on when and how the library changes. Every time there are new books the appearance of the library changes so it is very hard to make in information button about it.

    This library is the biggest i have seen so far Attachment not found.

    It used to look like the one PINJO1986 showed in their above post.
    How on earth is this dinky li'l bookmobile an upgrade?

    What is the status on the issue that Yon Beast posted?

    I have a deputy that bought a library book last night for the flower farm and now his library is now a gazebo.

    I don't think is is an actual issue. They did write about it in an update post a while ago..

    MODS can we get an answer to my question above with reference to the photo that Yon Beast provided please? Why would adding a new book cause the entire library to disappear and become a gazebo, doesn't make sense.

    Sounds like you get to that level & your library gets demolished & you start to build a totally new building.... Hafta keep your books in a gazebo during building works lol 8|

    Thanks Mina0o.

    This is the quote:
    "Since we want you to see your progress as well, we added new graphics for the library building! After you completed the currently available library levels, the whole building will be built anew - with a completely different and advanced architecture that will show off your knowledge like nothing else!"

    lmao.
    I am REALLY hesitant to buy any more books. I like the bigger library over the new bookmobile.
    I would suggest they show (with a ring or something) that the new library will grow to a similar magnificent structure.
    I'll wait to see if the new one grows at all before buying more.

    No you see what happened is they upgraded to electronic books and only have tables in that library which is why it is so small. Each tablet contains 40 - 100 books lol
