I had the same problem, everything saying ready but can’t collect. The way I reset mine was to stop paying to avoid disasters. If a fire, flood or tornado comes, hit the do nothing button. Then the disaster comes through and says two houses damaged, or three businesses damaged, or whatever. Then the broken thing flashes over the damaged buildings, you go fix that building, and it resets the counter and fixes the ‘ready’ problem. Took a few days, but disaster by disaster my stuff is all reset and producing again.
Tell me about it.
Just got the first expand option at level 10 from a quest. Got to start from scratch like SoulSiren. Was at level 53.
Gameloft said they sent an update that should fix everything. Just glad all my friends were kept.
Pretty sure you gotta spend one of your dollars…its trying to show you how to speed it up by spending money.
How do you make bricks?
How do you hunt? I have a quest telling me to hunt rabbits but I don’t know how…
Must have a workshop. Once you click on the workshop, scroll right to the brick. Tap on it, it will show you the cost is two horseshoes, and two buckets. Follow the steps to make the horseshoes and buckets first.
Normally, when you chop the tree an animal will run out after a few chops. Might take a whole tree or two, but keep at it. (I’ve also had them run out when performing a collecting $ task) Once you hear the banjo music and see the animal running on the screen. I find it best to click on the backpack, then the house with the red roof, it will make everything transparent so you can focus on the animal. Click directly on the animal and your character will hunt it. Continue to click on the animal to complete the hunt. Watch the yellow bar going across your hunter after you shoot. It’s a timer that halts you from your next shot till it’s all the way across.
This game runs terribly. I have an iPhone 4 and this app freezes all of the time.
How can i get FIRE and MALLET, please advise.
I was at a very high level … my land plots were costing 90,000. Then … bam. 90% of my town disappeared … and never came back. I started over. Pretty sure it was when the added all the christmas crap that screwed up everyones games! They need to get rid of that shit.
Same here. I sent them pictures of empty fields after level 53 and emails asking for help and compensation. The only reply I got was that they put out an update that should fix everything and let them know if I had any more questions. At least I was able to keep my friends and recover quickly after starting over. Bet you had an awesome town.
Click on the backpack. Go to the tab with the building with the white and blue awning. Purchase a workshop (1200 coins) Once you build that in your town. Click on it and you’ll see how to make the Mallet and Fire you make.
Also, you can click on “friends” next to the items you’re lacking and you can ask your friends to send you them. Cuts down on time and doesn’t cost them a thing. Having lots of friends in this game is the best way to thrive.
Do you have version 1.0.1k? Since downloading the updated version I’ve had almost no problems with freezing. I’m using an iPod touch 4th. So if that didn’t help Check inside gameloft with fawning007, or countrybarbie. They will reply and let you know what version they have after the update (if they have the iPhone).
Thank you very much, you saved my life:)
I just started to play this game so I have no friends yet:(
You’re welcome. I tried to add you, but had no luck finding you. Try adding me.
click on backpack in lower right corner. click on the watch at the very
top. Click on the gameloft icon at the bottom left of the screen. click
on friends. click on the + sign (upper right) enter my name. Then you can look at my friends and add them
as well. Let me know if you get it.
Is there a way to get cash packs without purchasing them?
I have a quest to rid the town of two bandits. Anyone have any ideas on how to find “bandits” and how to get rid of them once I do? Thanks!!!
Click on the backpack, click on the watch icon at the top, then click on Free Cash next to the gameloft icon.
When you hear the “hunting” music and there’s normally a squirrel, or deer etc. Sometimes there is a scarecrow looking character carrying a bag of cash on his shoulder that’s a little bigger than his head. Click on him to shoot him (3X). I bet that takes care of your quest.
Just had an encounter with one. He has black pants, a grey shirt, red bandana around his neck and a black hat carrying a bag with the $ symbol on it. That’s your guy.
Where do you buy animal baits? Have a quest to get 5 and have no idea how to get them … HELP!!
How do you increase population
As far as I can tell, you do it by building such things as business buildings.
Does anyone know how to rotate buildings? I have tried everything and can’t get them to rotate. Btw, I have building rotation enabled in the options menu.
