OFFICIAL Tools and Fuel

[kperry7411]

This is my problem, pre-covid I always had about 100 million fuel cans. So because I had a surplus I always hired people without fuel. Now I am running out of fuel. I'm guessing that the reason is that I can't help other farmers to rake. etc. Is this correct.
When will that be enabled?

Hi kperry

First of all we dont know when that feature will be added back to the game.
Anyway you dont get such high amount for Help given to think that made you have less fuel tanks while refuelling.

I had a look at your data and saw that you are not sharing your fuel now what is good while you try to build it up.

Please consider that you have been upgrading farms and the most you add to those farms then the more fuel you will use.

I also saw that you have 2 Gas station on your farms. The Gas station is a service facility which is loaded with fuel tanks to be sold. So if you have the tools to fill your Gas stations please uncheck the fuel tanks so you dont sell them and if you fill them manually, just dont fill it with the fuel tanks.

You work for others at market, so before accepting a job, read the hiring message and see if the farmer is sharing the fuel and you also can change your message at market to let them know you dont have fuel.

Other thing you can try is to change all gifts for fuel tanks and when you post your facilities, try to constantly refill your Oil refineries to get as much fuel tanks as possible.

I often run in to this error message when I am trying to move multiple items (flowers, trees, decorations, etc.): "Can't move item from storage to farm. Please retry later." This happens quite often even when I am placing the item where there are no conflicts from other existing item, crops, etc.

Sometimes if I am able to successfully add an item to another location, then I can easily move it to the same areas that previously produced the area.

Is this a bug? A Feature?

It's quite irritating when I am trying to create a forest or a massive flower garden.

Hi sclancy,
I moved your post to the subject thread about tools as youy are moving items from storage.
Anything you take from your storage to the farm has to have a clear spot to be able to set it down on your farm. The outline must turn green in order to place it.

I probably wasn't clear. In nearly every case the space I am trying to put the object DOES have a green outline, but I still receive the error message. As I noted, if I am able to place it somewhere else I can then successfully move it to the exact spot the previously had the error message. It's only when I try to move from storage.

Hi sclancy,

Taz is not available at the moment.

Are you showing everything possible on your farms when this happens? If not please make sure you do, incase anything is there that you may have forgotten about.

Could you have temporarily hidden anything in that area before you tried to place the item down or could you have moved something else from that area in the same session, before you tried to get something out of storage to place in that spot?

With the item you were able to place in a different spot then move it to the place you wanted it in. Was that item something larger than a single tree or single flower? If it was, could the space you were placing it into have been not as large as the other area you placed it in successfully?
The reason I ask is because if you are trying to place something very close to another item, getting larger items out of storage can need a slightly bigger space that it looks like it needs. If that's the case and the item won't place, if it offers you another view to place it in a different rotation you might find it will place the other way around.

When you successfully placed it in a different area, could you have used a freestyle farm designer to move it to the other place you wanted it in? Some of those tools will allow you to move an item into a smaller space to get them much closer to each other than you could if you were not using those.

Hi Molaquilts,
I am sorry, but getting enough fuel is up to you. Nothing has changed in how much fuel you get for each fuel tank.

Today the game is showing me with one (1) fuel. However when I go to the oil refinery, it shows me with 109,495 fuel. I've tried reloading the game several times but it still shows 1 fuel in the display on the upper left. Use ID 1497914343

Hi FF,
When you go to the oil refinerty it does not show you how much fuel you have. When you hover over the fuel tanks inn the oil refinery it shows you how many fuel tanks you have in storage, not how much fuel you have available for work.

You only have 1 fuel left to use until you refuel. You need to refuel to convert those fuel tanks in your storage to fuel to use for work.
