New Release -- August 30th, 2011

[LoreneC]

am I understanding the info correct and that the red sprinkler when mouse hovered over it will show the time you can irrigate again or how many hours is left on current irrigation like the manure spreader does? if that is case, mine and many others I talked to shows nothing when the mouse is hovered over the red sprinkler

Here is the quote where Raul refers to the changes for the red sprinkler. Since it is listed as a "known issue" rather than a post release fix, it means they are working on making the change not that it has already been changed. Hope this helps.

Known Issues - Aug 30, 11:15PM EST:

-Clydesdale too big: After checking users and mods feedback, we will not reduce the size of the Clydesdale horse, instead we will provide bigger alternative versions for current stables
-Sometimes the state (growth) of the crop and the mouseover information message don't match
-No information about when can you irrigate plants again: The time remaining for the next irrigation will be shown when you mouseover the sprinkler in the extended tool box icon, similar to the manure spreader behaivor
-To avoid confusion about when your plants were irrigated or not, the Sprinkler will only show the water animation when you are allowed to irrigate the plants
-Some users wants to revive flowers but without doubling growth speed for crops in that farm: The red sprinkler in addition to doubling the growth speed, will also extend the gone to waste time, so even if you double the growth speed unintentionally by reviving your flowers, you will have the same time as before to harvest your crops, this will effectively remove the need to have the brown water sprinkler in the toolbox or storage.
