New Release -- September 1st, 2012

[MadamePondarosa]

Its nice to be able to change angle on the new freight cars, but it would be nicer (and logic) to able: rotate, sell, add to storage, move all freight wagons!!

Guess the devs just forgot, can you give a notice Rob?

The DEV know of this issue and are working on it

I just bought my 10th freight car, linked it to the train, loaded and dispatched. It's gone and doing its thing without a glitch. Great! Then I went to one of my neighbors to work facilities. Nothing has changed. I still have to work the same number of facilities before the mayor takes over. Is the mayor still on the old schedule, on vacation, on strike, or what?

People are great, could use a ton more: kids playing soccer, people in bathing suits for my beach, car repair person, etc. etc. I'm sure that will keep the devs busy for some time to come.

One more gripe while I'm at it. Bought the orange and green hand and hoped that I can now place my lake on top of green grass squares. No such luck.

I was under the impression we could NOT mix the coin trains with the FC trains using the Freight engine....Could you please reclarify what you are saying? I am about to buy the new ones an may need one to get it on a corner.

Rob added an example in the Game Guide Chapter 30 on how to do this. And yes you have always been able to mix them up. the only thing is the coin ones are decoration only.

Hi all-- unsure if this is a new glitch, or maybe I am just special. LOL I am unable to work any neighbor's facilities since I dispatched my train yesterday. I click the link to work their farm, I get there, and all I do is stand there. No pop up ever comes allowing me to work.

You might be able to try to go to your farm first then go back to your FB page and click back on the link to work their farms, some people have said this works for them.

A neighbor of mine sent me one of the newest boxcars, but instead of getting what he sent I have the long gondola in my gift box. I've heard of this happening to other people before - that is, the gift changing to something it's not supposed to be, but have never had this happen to me. Does anyone else have this issue?

And yeah, I sent a message to Slashkey but it may take up to 3 weeks for me to get the reply.

You do not have to have it on tracks either! It looks funny having a train on a dirt path or grass, but my train is on a path because I did not want to edit the farm to make room for tracks. For some reason I did not see any mention of the that in the official instructions.

I love, love LOVE the new people. Can't wait for new ones to arrive with future updates. Thanks Devs and Raul, you guys ROCK with this die hard decorator.

Also, I now can work all my neighbors facilities super fast since I have 9 of the cars. YEA!

Just one tiny thing. The new peeps really show off the disproportions of some of the buildings. I mean REALLY. It kinda drives me nuts but I will live with it for I love this game too much. Just have to rearrange the smaller ones to look as if they are in the distance. Or just live with a distorted world..like in the real world.
