Chronically addicted Farm Town farmers will have already discovered that Farm Town has just received a ton of new items and has new features for us all to enjoy. If it has been a while since you tended to your crops, then I think this upgrade deserves your attention.

Of course not every upgrade will please every farmer, but one new feature is certain to please everyone that has a farm in need of a new look and feel. The new feature of which I am speaking is the “Rotate” feature found in the context menu when you click on pretty much any of the wide variety of structures found on your farm.

It has been a consistent complain since I started Farm Town farming that the direction in which our farm houses, barns, and even mailbox point is the direction around which we must design our entire farm. Until yesterday, Farm Town farmers had no ability to turn or “rotate” a structures direction. On behalf of all of us that have filed this complaint in forums, in chats with fellow farmers, and of course here on Farm Town Weekly, we all want to thank Slashkey for finally answering our call for this much needed new “rotate” feature.

This image illustrates the new "rotate" feature being applied to a barn. This works on all or most other structures on your Farm Town farm including the mailbox. Just click on an item and select "Rotate" from the drop-down context menu to change the direction of any structure where this feature has been enabled.

I would like to remind all of our loyal listeners and new farm town friends that we will be doing a Labor Day show on Monday, September 7th at 7:30 PM Central time and let you know that we have a real treat for those that join us LIVE. Listen while we stream live over the net, text chat with fellow farmers, and of course as always you are welcome to call in and talk with Mountain Mamma and I.
