See Known Issues, More Information and Post Release Updates at the end of this post. Last update released on November 8th, 1:00AM.

Hi There, En Español AQUI

1. 25 New Levels: 13 new decorations added to the 'Farm Decor' and 'Other' categories in the store.

2. Farm 49 and the first 7 Upgrades: See prices below:

Farm 12 x 12: 75 Billion Coins or 60 Farm Cash
Upgrade 14 x 14: 76 Billion Coins or 25 Farm Cash
Upgrade 16 x 16: 77 Billion Coins or 25 Farm Cash
Upgrade 18 x 18: 78 Billion Coins or 25 Farm Cash
Upgrade 20 x 20: 79 Billion Coins or 25 Farm Cash
Upgrade 22 x 22: 80 Billion Coins or 30 Farm Cash
Upgrade 24 x 24: 81 Billion Coins or 30 Farm Cash
Upgrade 26 x 26: 82 Billion Coins or 30 Farm Cash

We also increased the height of the game a bit to compensate for the extra row of farms in the farm selector.

3. It's now easier to communicate with your employees: There is a new message envelope icon at the top right in the 'Show Names->Show User Info' screen that will show you all your employees and visitors in your farms, from that screen you can send them neighbor requests, buddy requests, offline messages and chat messages. You don't have to be at your farms to do this, you can be at the markets or visiting other farmers.

In future releases any communication from your employer, both offline and chat messages, will be highlighted in pink, and any communication from your employees will be highlighted in red. We will also show a visual cue when you have a pending message from your employer or employee to increase the chance that you see it while you work the farms.


Mods Note: Information on how to message a worker after hiring is in the Game Guide, Chapter 09 Hiring. Click on the link below to be taken to that post:

4. Other Improvements from a few weeks ago:

a) When getting hired there is a new option in the job offer screen "Which of your tools can I use for this job?", this will show you the biggest tools you can borrow from your employer

b) When a farm is irrigated the color of the farm title at the top change from white to blue

c) In the Train Manager the boost tab is now in the first position and is the one shown by default

d) Replaced the red 'ex' in toolbox by just an 'x' in gray color to reduce cluttering

e) Bugfix: In the Train Manager all freight cars were showing grayed out instead of only those that are not part of trains

f) Bugfix: Using the mouse wheel in the Farm Selector Manager dropdowns was very slow

g) Bugfix: Do not open the Farmtown console below the game when you click on the facility ingredient planner or product help in the store

5. Sauna Supplies Factory (FC): Produces Sauna Supplies.

Comfort Head Rest
Hanging Aroma Bowl
Sauna Hat

Waterfall Shower Bucket

6. Truck Supplies Factory (Coins): Produces Truck Supplies.

7. Sauna House (FC): Provides Dry or Wet Heat Session Services and can be stocked with products from the Sauna Supplies Factory.

8. Truck Service Center (Coins): Provides Truck Repair Services and can be stocked with products from the Truck Supplies Factory.

9. Farm Pass updates: We have already started considering alternatives to expand the current Farm Pass feature, it will most likely have a premium and a free component same as the current Farm Pass, we estimate this should be completed in the next 1 or 2 releases.

Enjoy!

Hi ftjill

Be sure you are seeing the Sauna Supplies Factory and not the Sauna House which is the service facility. You cant ask for ingredients from a service facility.
