Farm Together 2 News

Today's update is a small one, bringing a few fixes and improvements.

Improvements:

• Reduced draw distance for lighting fences. Will help a bit with performance when lots of them are placed around.
  
• You can now set up to 4 crops for farmhands and arrow signs. Farmhands will try to plant the first crop available from the list. This should help with setting crops for different seasons.
• Fixed RTL text not being properly handled in the Text Chat window. Input label still doesn't work properly, and won't probably be fixed anytime soon.

Gameplay changes:

• Added an additional step to Falafel recipe.The model was done with an additional step in mind that wasn't being used.

Bugfixes:

• Fixed lighting fences blocking tractor work area.
  
• Fixed action pop-up showing current money instead of variation when spending favor for money.
  
• Fixed Item unlocked pop-ups showing when the item wasn't really unlocked yet.
  
• Fixed being unable to choose off-season crops for Arrow sign.
  

In today's patch we're fixing a few issues introduced in yesterday's update.

Improvements:

• Shop will now change behavior when you're in a tile affected by the security booth or the arrow sign. This was required for proper behavior when increasing permission level from None to Plant, etc.
• Added a setting to disable building range visualization.
  

Bugfixes:

• Fixed item icons not being shown in the level up popup.
  
• Fixed minor lighting glitch when choosing a preset in the Wardrobe.
