Don't put any tools in that spot and it will allow you to use it on everyone's farm but if you have put another tool in its place it can't be used even if you go into the toolbox.

What a truly gracious and fabulous idea to let the farmers in the market use our big tools!!!! WOOO HOOOOOO. No more wondering if you've just hired someone who has no tools. Every hire will be the perfect person for the job now....so long as they are responsible workers. The bonus chests have now been put in reach of every farmer.
And just wait till they get back to their own farm and have to go back to a 1x1. What a GREAT incentive for them to buy their own tools.

Brilliant addition, Raul.

Off to check out the new clouds!! Peace!

We have to remember, not all farmer have all tools...I have all tools and the 10 x 10 combine...usually I do my own farms but today for the first time I went to the market and hired someone to do my fields.....I went with them and they started h/p with their 5 x 5 combine...told them to use my 10 x 10...and it worked ...the person was so happy to be able to use it...first thing out of their mouth was.....can't wait to be able to get one ......so yes, some people will not buy all tools but, some I'm sure it is going to get more people to buy the bigger one once they use them......besides, it got my farms done (no problem) and they didn't use any of my fuel. Also there might be less (no flowers) or (chopping) or (shaking) or the NO FISHING....lol Sure, this is probably only going to help the people with all tools, but it will give the newbie a taste of what the bigger tools can do. Just hope they got the fuel to finish the job!

The new clouds are very pretty. I like that they can be set up high above the buildings etc.

I love that others can use my tools to harvest my farms. I always feel bad when I hire someone with no tools to do a full farm. It takes them forever. And then if I happen to have hired someone with tools that didn't start right away they come in and take all the work away. No one wants to share anymore. The only ones who might be hurt if people don't buy the tools is Slashkey. Sure doesn't hurt my pocket book. I will have less lose of crops being left because someone didn't have time to finish one click at a time. And just so you know a have been here from June 2009. I have worked hard for what I have. I am so thankful for this game everyday and I believe this just makes it better.

The question would be do they have fuel? I f not then they would not be able to use them. If they do have fuel then they need to open the Extended toolbox to use them. They cannot use them from the shorter harvest or plow toolbars or from them being on the toolbar in place of the gift box or store.

Did they look in their toolbox, that is the only way they can have access to your tools

of course ... person could use the brown combi without any problem !

I stop warning people that they can use other tools ... I feel as a fool. A player got angry because I told this person to take my tools. It did not work
