Does this imply that the instability is gone? I only have one farm at 30x30, the rest are 28x28 because I did not want to have problems, the game runs great for me! The farm stats is a cool feature, and I could use more planting space, do we KNOW that there are no problems caused by expanding? thx.
I think that the word "unstable" could be best replaced with "slower". I have kept up with the expansions from the day we were told that FlashPlayer would not support anything larger than 24x24 (at that time).

Flash has improved and FT has grown right along with it.

I expanded because I did not want to crowd out the ever-growing number of facilities and other cool stuff. And I prefer to not put buildings on top of trees on top of crops etc. I intend to expand them all from again (to 40x40) when the next expansion occurs. I will have 4 farms at full expansion for crops only (9-layered) for my main source of crop inventory and will have fun with the others and the elbow room they allow for.

In the meantime, I really like the Farm Stats so I can try to keep track of so much.

Thanks Devs.

now......... ready for #24 and beyond.
