Underwater barn and auto-collector bug fix?

[BuzzGunnerGirl]

Has anyone come up with a work around where you can't access your auto-collector in the underwater barn? I seem to remember seeing somewhere that someone said to move the barn and you could then access the auto-collector. But won't that just move the auto-collector too? To the same location in the barn at its new location?

Yes. For me, when I moved the barn the auto collector became accessible the next day. You can then empty it and remove it. I dint run additional days to see if it stays good.

Did not work for me. I moved my barn and the auto-collector moved with it and maintained its same location relative inside barn.

I believe that was me. And I meant to move it then go back same day before its moved and you can then access it. The next day will be the same problem.

That's how it worked for me. But somehow I duplicated my barn twice O.o I guess that's not ment to happen

OK! Yeah, the workaround is to move the barn and go back the *same* day and you can collect the items from the auto-collector. If you wait until the next day, it won't work.

Thanks all for your help!

A bugfix here would be really, really nice .... I can't use the auto-collector underwater at all.

After I could access it (the auto-collector) I removed it completely. Now I have to milk my animals every day and collect the eggs by hand.

I have finished the Wall-relief and when the upgrade for the kelp is done, I think I will sell my two sea-cows and I will have no animals anymore underwater ... till this bug is fixed. I don't think you really "need" them right now after you have done this stuff ...

FYI - To upgrade your underwater feed, you need 10 bronze, 15 silver and 30 gold animal products.

Yesterday, I managed to set up the auto-collector in the underwater farm. Everything was going well; I was able to collect the items I wanted. However, now when I log in, I can't click on the auto-collector, I have no access to anything, and I can't even remove it and place it elsewhere... I already destroyed the farms once, and it worked, but now I don't want to repeat that action every time, especially since I only need the milk to make the cheese wheel for the offering

Will they fix it soon? patting and collecting stuff from animals is soooo boring.

See above for the workaround. I.e. Activate the "move" option on the barn (300 credits), run (swim) back to your underwater barn on the same day as you've activated the move action. You can now access the auto-collector. Empty it and remove it. From then on, use your milk pail everyday until the devs fix the bug.

No clue how soon this is going to be fixed. It's been this way for a couple of weeks or more.
