Can we move things between farms ??

[gbmkennedy]

I have 100 or so things of each item from store (trees, fish, animals ect.) I would like to group everything of items on one farm - Like farm #2 have all my trees and flowers ect. Can we do this or do have to rebuy everything and then sell same on old farm ?? Can't even imagine anymore how much I have spent terraforming my farm flat and buying all the items in store. Yikes !!! Dev's , please say we can move things between farms and how (hopefully optimistic).

Not for now, but we'll see...

The only things that could be interesting to move are houses and production buildings, as those are a bit more special. The other items can be sold and all money will be returned.

Moving items would require some sort of intermediate storage that we don't have for now, and... how would the interfaces work? it would be something separate? it should show as another tab in the shop? our current interface is mostly designed with showing things in different categories so it's not an easy fit.

Remember that if we're hesitant on doing something, it's because it's usually way harder than it looks, and this is one of those.

i'm not sure where to post this, but I had an idea regarding unlocking plots of land. Is it possible to also have the option to purchase the land empty when we buy, like X amount of diamonds then maybe pay X ribbons as another option to get the land empty? As well as the normal option to pay diamonds like we're doing now. It was just a thought I had, and figured I'd ask the devs. I love the multi farm idea, thank you all so much for everything you're doing with this game!

Instead of or in addition to buying new land, might we merge our farms? Instead of buying more cluttered land full of mounds and holes, it would be amazing to merely merge our existing farms together the way the new land does. I'd like all the funds in one account, too, and not per land. Then, we truly need an office on the farm to pay the farmhands and to travel to the other land we buy or merge. I hate having to go to town frequently to pay the farmhands, and now we have to go to town to simply go to another section of our land. PLEASE, give this consideration. Again, PLEASE, give us flat grass covered land. It takes days to clear the land the way it is. It's so much unnecessary work for us. I was hoping the new land would be that way. Now, the excitement of new land this way only became another huge headache and days of work taking away much of the joy of it. Thank you!

It's done this way so that we can 'clear' all the assets used in one piece of land, and load another one. That's why there's a loading screen when you go to a new land.

If we just had one huge land, we would have to rise the PC requirements, as more memory would be needed to store everything. Particularly when we're constantly adding more and more stuff.

Thank you so much for answering that question. I have purchased 1 1/2 new farms and am in the process of flattening land. Since I know I can't transfer things I will start to load land with all new items and sell those things on first farm I can't move. If anybody is interested :
I had about 2,700,000 diamonds (yeah I play way more than I should but it's addictive. I flatten around 1/3 of top land and changed all ground back to grass. I now have about 723,000 diamonds left, yeah it's expensive. I am using 2nd farm for animals and fish. The first will be crop fields and perks we get from seasonal quests and new decorations. The 3rd farm is for trees and flowers.
