A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF THE USE OF THE SEA PLANE
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Paraglider and Sea Volcano Interactions
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The Sea Plane and its uses are confusing to many players. First of all, if you do not have ANY of the Buildings in the Sea Resort that allow passengers to operate there, sending passengers to the Sea Resort HAS NO EFFECT WHATSOEVER. Thus, you need to purchase the Paraglider and/or Sea Volcano.
Total Number of Passengers in Sea Plane
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Second, the number of Passengers you load into the Plane should be based on the number of slots available in the buildings you have purchased and upgraded in the Sea Resort. In other words, if you only have the basic Paraglider with one slot, you only can use one Passenger. If you have all three slots unlocked, you can use THREE guests. If you have the Sea Volcano, the same holds true. The maximum number of Passengers that can be used AT ANY GIVEN TIME if you have not reached Level 8 expansion of the Sea Resort but if you have all upgrades to Paraglider and Sea Volcano is SIX.
Using Passengers in Sea Resort
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Now, with the new added 1st Class Seats, you can load a total of 12 passengers into your Sea Plane if you have upgraded it fully. The problem here is that, if you have not reached Level 8 expansion, you only can use a maximum of 6 at any given time. ALL THE SEA RESORT BUILDINGS FOR PASSENGER INTERACTION ARE ON TIMERS. The timer expires after 3 hours.
1st Class Seats v. Economy Seats
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The difference between the 1st Class Seats in the Sea Plane and the Economy Seats is timing only. Both types of Passengers perform the very same actions in the Sea Resort buildings.
For 1st Class Seats, you can make an instant appeal in Chat to have any Neighbour agree to fill the seat. For the Economy Seats, it is all timers. You have to wait for the timer for any Economy Seat to expire before the Seat will be filled. The advantage therefore of having 3 First Class Seats would be that you could send off the Sea Plane with 3 Passengers instantly to fully occupy either the Paraglider or the Sea Volcano.
Collectable House
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The Collectable House can be found in the Building section of the Market for 1000 Coins and placed either on your farm or in the Building Area. Items stored there can be harvested much as you harvest from the Tree Nursery now.
Note that you can store only the permanent Collectables and not the 'temporary' ones that, when purchased for Coins in the Market, last only 3 days. Another 'temporary' Collectable that cannot be stored is the Farm Birthday gift.
The Sea Plane now is interactive and there are three buildings in the Sea Resort that use the 'guests' whom you load as passengers into the Sea Plane. Note please that EVERYTHING is on timers... so it is all very fussy in terms of obtaining maximum use from the guests and the buildings. Until you reach Level 8 in the Sea Resort, you only can purchase two of the new buildings in the form of the Paraglider and the Sea Volcano. The usefulness of these very much depends on the number of upgrades you have made to the buildings. All upgrade requirements are given below. Furthermore, the usefulness is linked to the number of guests you have flown to the Resort at any given time in your Sea Plane.
BE AWARE THAT WITH TWO SEA RESORT BUILDINGS FULLY UPGRADED, YOU ONLY CAN USE A MAXIMUM OF SIX GUESTS AT ANY POINT IN TIME.
In other words, in my opinion, upgrading the Sea Plane to seat a total of 6 guests should be sufficient.
Below, I give detailed instructions how to use the Sea Plane with the new Paraglider and Sea Volcano.
The Fishing College is part of the Sea Resort and is an advanced option, unlocked only when you have achieved the 8th plot expansion. Once unlocked, you can use a net to catch fish in the Fishery.
The Fishing Pier will be transformed into the Fishery where you can use either a fishing rod or a net. It can be entered either from the original pier area or from the Fishing College.
There is a limit to the number of fish that can be harvested daily now. New 'season' will begin at 0 Hours U.T.C. or Greenwich Mean Time as it once was called.
The Fishing Net unlocks according to the Fishing Rods you own. Better Fishing Rods will increase the number of harvests and the time needed to make any harvest. As always, the type of fish you catch is linked to the type of Hook or Float you currently have equipped. The Net Float is unlocked automatically.
You will find the two new untimed Quest sequences, Chocolate Frenzy and Ice Cream Stand Quests below. Please be advised that you will need to have earned advanced recipes in the Coffee House to complete these quests.
The Sea Plane and new Sea Resort buildings require a number of items that are made in advanced Upgraders for the upgrades. This recent update of the game is fairly advanced for the most part. Do not be discouraged if you cannot complete the Quests or even reach the 8th Expansion of the Sea Resort! There is NO TIME LIMIT FOR ANY OF THIS!!!!
Invite Rewards
xxxxxxxxxxxxx
There is one new option in the Farm Menu which is 'Invite Rewards'. For those of us who have the maximum number of neighbours, it is not applicable but if you are a new farmer, you receive Rewards for every Neighbour you invite to the game.
Fishery Skills
xxxxxxxxxxx
There are three different types of Fishery Skills:
Nutritional Feed
Attractive Bait
Alluring Net
Fishing Pier
xxxxxxxxxx
If you have the 8th expansion in the Sea Resort, the Fishing Pier becomes the Fishery. Even if you do not have it, however, there is a new Hook in the form of the Dolphin Hook. It requires 125 Bait per try and a Boost costs 300 Bait. With this Hook, you can catch the following:
Saury
Codfish
Tuna
Surf Clam
Abalone
Giant Tiger Prawn
Snow Crab
Broken Canvas
With the new Fish that you can catch with the Dolphin Hook come new Recipes in the Kitchen as follows:
Fried Cod with Mashed Potato
Requires 1 Codfish and 2 Catlicious Mash
Heart Shaped Codfish Cake
Requires 1 Fried Cod with Mashed Potatoes and 2 Egg Roll
Romantic Pizza
Requires 1 Heart Shaped Codfish Cake and 4 Love Fruit Pies
Fried and Stewed Saury
Requires 1 Smoked Saury and 4 Red Bell Peppers

Delicate Fish Cookie
Requires 4 Gulfweed and 1 Giant Tiger Prawn
Delicious Fish Cookie
Requires 1 Delicate Fish Cookie and 2 Tuna
Complicated Fish Cookie
Requires 1 Delicious Fish Cookie and 2 Abalone Shell
Seafood House Additions
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
If you look at the new Recipes listed above, you will see that some of the ingredients have been processed in the Seafood House. The new items from Seafood House are:
Abalone
Yields Abalone Shell when processed; as an ingredient, used unprocessed
Giant Tiger Prawn
Yields Steamed Tiger Prawn
Snow Crab
Yields Steamed Snow Crab and Crab Paste
Note that you can smoke some of the new Fish in your Smoke House as well. I imagine that the Abalone Shell will be added to a new item eventually made in the Beauty Shop
Sea Plane
xxxxxxxxx
Your Sea Plane now is interactive. You can invite Guests to the Sea Resort and upgrade the plane to be able to accommodate more guests. Essentially, you use these Guests in the various new Buildings such as the Sea Volcano and the Paraglider. The Sea Volcano gives extra Power and the Paraglider gives a bonus to every Order in the Ocean Cafe. If your Paraglider is fully upgraded with three slots and is occupied by three guests, you can obtain 100% bonus on all Ocean Cafe orders.
N.B. Make certain that each time you send your Sea Plane to the Sea Resort, you manually ADD the Guests to each of the Buildings there for the various boosts.
Here is how it works: first, load your Sea Plane with as many guests as possible. If you have not reached Level 8 in the Sea Resort, you can use a MAXIMUM of 6 guests at any point in time. In other words, if you have upgraded your Sea Plane to the 6 Economy Seats, do not worry about adding another 1st Class Seat. Simply send it off to the Sea Resort.
Buy the Paraglider. It has a coin cost. The Sea Volcano gives a MAXIMUM of 6 Power and that only if fully upgraded. It costs 16 RC. I do not find it that useful frankly but as I have fully upgraded the Sea Plane, at least I am able to use 6 guests....
Try to upgrade the Paraglider fully and if you do have the Sea Volcano, upgrade that fully. Fully upgraded Buildings in the Sea Resort allow you to add 3 Guests to each. Make certain you add them all at the same time to achieve maximum benefit. When the Paraglider is fully loaded with guests, you receive 100% boost on Ocean Cafe Orders. What this means is that you should try to have your Ocean Cafe fully loaded with items if you wish to achieve maximum boost.
As far as the Sea Volcano is concerned, you need to collect the Power manually from the top left of the Menu or new Guests will not generate any more Power. It, like the Paraglider is on a timer. Collect and refill with Guests whenever possible.

5th Anniversary Cake
This post deals with the 5th Anniversary celebrations as well as new update. New update below Anniversary Cake sections.
(Screenshot of completed Cake, stacked from positions 1-5. You can choose one of three 'cake toppers' in the form of the Chicken seen here, a Sheep or a Cow. All other Decorations occupy unique positions on the Cake Base.)
Anniversary Cake
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
There are a number of different components to this. Many will be found in Felicia's Message so make certain that you collect daily.
Today you will have received the Anniversary Cake Base, a special Avatar and 20 Cream Crop Seeds.
In the Market, there is a new Bird Family Decoration that is an Island Decoration and the first of its kind to give Island Blue Boxes when cleaned.
If you are looking for the Mushroom Picking Quest, you will find it below this post or follow this link to access it:
Mushroom Picking Quest
Anniversary Cake Base
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Anniversary Cake Base: This Base is found in Felicia's Message. You can place it immediately but to 'decorate' it, you will need to complete some of the Decorations that can be purchased in the Market and 'built' as follows:
Cream Crop
xxxxxxxxxx
The special Cream Crop (20 of the seeds each day) must be planted and harvested to finish all the Decorations for the Anniversary Cake Base. You cannot complete any of them without the Cream Plant and as you will see, each requires 60. A glitch caused the Cream Plant to appear in the market for a few lucky farmers temporarily but the only way you should be able to obtain the seeds is through Felicia's Message each day.
Note that many farmers are keeping a few mature Cream Plants on their farms for their neighbours to harvest when they visit. This randomly allows players to obtain a few more than their daily allotment. If other farmers fertilise the immature crop, it may be impossible for neighbours to harvest it. This is a bit glitchy, but it is best to have at least 5 mature crops on your Farm if you wish to help your Neighbours with extra plants and you can afford to keep them there!
Cake Decorations
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Farmers who play the regular Family Farm will be familiar with this type of activity. Decorations when completed can be used to decorate the Cake (Base). Use the Move and then the Search tool on the Base to see how the Decorations can be stacked. It will take at least 3 days to complete any Decoration, however, if Felicia only gives 20 Cream Plant seeds per day. There is no option to buy out of this by paying RC for the Crop.
Here is a list of all the Decorations and their materials:
Cake Butter: Purchase in Decorations section of Market for 1000 Coins and build it:
60 Cream Plant
10 Custard
10 Butter
20 Buffalo Milk
Cake Liquid Chocolate: Purchase for 1000 Coins in Decorations Section of Market and build it:
60 Cream Plant
10 Chocolate
5 Turron
10 Tiramisu
Cow Cake Deco:
60 Cream Plant
10 Condensed Milk
20 Low Fat Milk
10 Cottage Cheese
Cake Piping Bag:
60 Cream Plant
15 Buttercream
10 Lavender Cupcake
10 Coconut Milk
Cake Fruits
60 Cream Plants
20 Strawberry
20 Raspberry
20 Blackberry
Chicken Cake Deco: 1000 Coins
60 Cream Plant
10 Condensed Milk
20 Eggs
20 Egg White
Sheep Cake Deco: 1000 Coins
60 Cream Plant
10 Condensed Milk
20 Wool
20 Goat Milk
Cow Cake Deco: 1000 Coins
60 Cream Plant
10 Condensed Milk
20 Low Fat Milk
10 Cottage Cheese
Stacking Decorations on Anniversary Cake
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The Anniversary Cake Base allows a total of 5 Decorations in specific positions. There are three Decorations for Position 5 which is at the top of the Cake as follows:
Sheep Cake Deco
Chicken Cake Deco
Cow Cake Deco
In other words, as they all occupy the same position, you only can place one of these at any given time.
For the rest of the Decorations, positions are:
Position 1: Cake Butter
Position 2: Cake Liquid Chocolate
Position 3: Cake Piping Bag
Position 4: Cake Fruits
Position 5: Cow Cake Deco/Chicken Cake Deco/Sheep Cake Deco
My advice, therefore is to complete all the Decorations that occupy distinctive positions first and then choose one of the three animal Decorations for the top of the Cake. Once all those are completed, you can complete the 'alternate' Animal Decorations.
New Farmer Gifts
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Claim the following:
Level 2: 10 Corn, 10 Milk, 1000 Coins
Level 5: 10 Apples, 2 Hedges, 2000 Coins
Level 10: 50 Pet Food, 5 Paths (Brick)
Level 12: 25 Organic Fertiliser, 50 OP, 1 RC
Level 15: 10 Lab Cards, 2000 Coins
Level 21: 50 OP, 1 Rain, 2 RC
This completes the Clover Statue, a Decoration that will go to your Gift Box and can be placed on your Seaside Farm.
New Water Well Update
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Oddly enough, although I had reached a high number of Sprinklers, the Well now tells me that I should upgrade to Level 2 as follows:
20 Turkey Burgers
10 Pink Rope
10 Water Buckets
Maximum number of Sprinklers 450.
Teams
xxxxx
There are teams in the original Family Farm game and now Seaside has them as well. The first step is to complete the 'building' that allows you to launch a new Balloon that will give you the option to participate in the Farmer's Fair. No materials are required. Simply tap on the little collapsed building to the left of the Gallery to complete it.
The building is the 2nd Guest Centre. On my farm, it was unlocked automatically but I now have been told by lower level farmers that there are requirements for unlocking it as follows:
You must have unlocked all four areas of the original Mootopia Map. In other words, you must have unlocked 1 Star Metropolis before you will be able to complete the 2nd Guest Centre.
You then have the following options:
Start a Team
Join a Team
If you choose: Start a Team
You need to choose a specific Pet to go to the Farmer's Fair. It must be an inactive Pet.
When you have chosen your Pet, you need to choose some products to sell at the Fair. The first venture will give you the option to sell 5000 Coins worth of a random product. After that, you must choose your own products which will be consumed.
You then have five minutes to find a team. This can be 'auto-find' or actually find other farmers to join your team.
The Auto-Find option allowed me to experiment with it.
You find yourself in a little area with 4 Guests. You will have four Pets to bargain with the four 'Guests'. While an apparently endless bargaining session goes on, you actually can return home by pressing the 'Home' icon in the bottom left of the screen. The time is limited actually to one hour. Whenever your goal is met, however, the session can end early.
As indicated, you have an hour I believe to meet your sales goal. You will receive multiple orders after assigning each pet to a Guest. My Pet was Level 25 and had full stamina so I never had to feed him but the other Pets lost all Stamina and I had to feed them to allow them to continue the session. We were successful and I received a Key and then was told to choose a box from five boxes to open. The box contained one Turtle Card. As Team Leader, I was told I could open a second Box.This contained 1 Turtle Card as well.
When I attempted to choose my own Team, I had difficulties, even though I had other farmers alerted to the fact that the 5 minute timer was running. You only see the icon of the Pet the Team Leader is using. The 5 minutes expired.
I believe the game has created this option to allow players who have not been able to earn sufficient Pet Cards for whatever reason by themselves to earn more. You only earn 1 random Pet Card, however, at Level 1 unless you create the Team. I believe that is what 'Team Leader' represents, although my Pet made the most sales as well.
Bear Scarf
xxxxxxxxx
You now can forge scarves for your Bears in the Factory. Like any other apparel forged in the Factory, it will give your Bear increases in Stamina and Bargaining Power when worn as well as possibly a boost when Guests from a specific area of the Map are invited.
Hedgehog Apparel
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hedgehog Apparel can be purchased in the Pet House Menu in the form of different colours of a Leaf or Apple. It is worn in the same position as the Belt or Bag for other pets.

When you have chosen your Pet, you need to choose some products to sell at the Fair. The first venture will give you the option to sell 5000 Coins worth of a random product. After that, you must choose your own products which will be consumed.
You then have five minutes to find a team. This can be 'auto-find' or actually find other farmers to join your team.
The Auto-Find option allowed me to experiment with it.
You find yourself in a little area with 4 Guests. You will have four Pets to bargain with the four 'Guests'. While an apparently endless bargaining session goes on, you actually can return home by pressing the 'Home' icon in the bottom left of the screen. The time is limited actually to one hour. Whenever your goal is met, however, the session can end early.
As indicated, you have an hour I believe to meet your sales goal. You will receive multiple orders after assigning each pet to a Guest. My Pet was Level 25 and had full stamina so I never had to feed him but the other Pets lost all Stamina and I had to feed them to allow them to continue the session. We were successful and I received a Key and then was told to choose a box from five boxes to open. The box contained one Turtle Card. As Team Leader, I was told I could open a second Box.This contained 1 Turtle Card as well.
When I attempted to choose my own Team, I had difficulties, even though I had other farmers alerted to the fact that the 5 minute timer was running. You only see the icon of the Pet the Team Leader is using. The 5 minutes expired.
I believe the game has created this option to allow players who have not been able to earn sufficient Pet Cards for whatever reason by themselves to earn more. You only earn 1 random Pet Card, however, at Level 1 unless you create the Team. I believe that is what 'Team Leader' represents, although my Pet made the most sales as well.
Bear Scarf
xxxxxxxxx
You now can forge scarves for your Bears in the Factory. Like any other apparel forged in the Factory, it will give your Bear increases in Stamina and Bargaining Power when worn as well as possibly a boost when Guests from a specific area of the Map are invited.
Hedgehog Apparel
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Hedgehog Apparel can be purchased in the Pet House Menu in the form of different colours of a Leaf or Apple. It is worn in the same position as the Belt or Bag for other pets.

Spring Picnic Guests and Springtime Base
N.B. The post for the current timed Quest and Collections Mission will be found below this post.
Introduction
xxxxxxxxxx
This post contains all information about the Springtime Base, both methods of obtaining it (with full Farm Fest Quest details), methods of obtaining the Materials for it, all information about the Spring Picnic Guests, with their actual orders and Lunch Boxes received as Rewards and at the end, some information about changes in the game with the new Update.
The Springtime Base
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You still can obtain 1 Springtime Base from the Lighthouse Mission if you did not complete the Mission previously. (Still active, according to our group member, Melissa Elder.) You can obtain a SECOND Springtime Base by merging the materials in your Factory. All tasks for the Farm Fest Quest that will give you a Springtime Base is given at the end of this post.
It looks as though only ONE Springtime Base can be made by any player in the Factory so if you want two, you need to have one from the Lighthouse Mission.
Note, as previously indicated, that you now can merge a Springtime Base in the Factory when you have collected sufficient materials. Materials for the Springtime Base will be given in a series of activities. The first is the Cooking Bag Stand where you randomly can find a material in the March Cooking Bags. To forge a Springtime Base you will need 12 Spring Wreath from the Cooking Stand bags, 6 Picnic Soda and 40 Lunch Box. The 6 Picnic Sodas were obtained from the highlighted Order on the Daily Order Board through 30 March, now no longer an active option.
Note that you can purchase the Spring Wreath and the Picnic Soda now in the Daily Special section of the Market. The Spring Wreath costs 70 TC and the Picnic Soda costs 70 TC as well.
The new game update and the changes in the game it brings are discussed at the very end of this post. One section deals with Batch Cleaning and Clean Tickets.
The new Spring Picnic Guest Groups found in the lower left corner of your Guest House Menu will give you the 3rd and final Material required to merge a Springtime Base in the Factory.
You should receive a total of 2 Lunch Boxes from the 1 Star Group consisting of only 2 Guests. The 2 Star Group consists of 4 Guests but you may not receive a Lunch Box from each of them. In two separate Visits, I received only a total of 2 Lunch Boxes from the entire Group. In another visit, however, the 2 Star Group did give me 4 Lunch Boxes... it therefore is random to some extent for the 2 Star Group and the 3 Star Groups. I posted actual order lists below but your results could be either better or worse. With the 3 Star Guests, I found that the ratio of Lunch Box Rewards to Guest Orders was pitiful! One Guest in the 3 Star Group requires 8 Orders and on two separate visits, I received NO Lunch Box from her!
Provided you have a total of 10 Paths on your Farm, you can use a Passport to invite the 1 Star Group of Guests immediately. These consist of Huey and Antonio. They each give four Orders and, provided you complete all of them, each should give you 1 Lunch Box Material for the Base. I use the word 'should' as it may be random actually, but the probabilities are very high with the 1 Star Group, unlike the 2 and 3 Star Groups where probability of receiving a Lunch Box appears to be far lower.
As of Sunday, 2 April, the best value is the 1 Star Guest Group that never has failed to give 2 Lunch Boxes. I have invited all of them repeatedly but many times, you fill more orders at the higher star levels but do not receive more Lunch Boxes. It always IS RANDOM, but results should be better! If Support changes the odds of receiving Lunch Boxes, I will update this.
Advantages of inviting 2 or 3 Star Guest Groups
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
If you have not been playing the game long, I suggest you look at the actual Order Lists for the 2 Star and 3 Star Guest Groups before you use your Telescopes, in particular, to unlock 2 and 3 Star. Remember that the Spring Picnic Guests are a temporary addition to Mootopia. There is no permanent advantage to unlocking the 2 or 3 Star Groups if you cannot fill the orders easily.
The number of Lunch Boxes you receive always is RANDOM and the odds are very much NOT in our favour for the 2 and 3 Star Guests. What then are the advantages of using your Passport for the 2 Star or 3 Star Groups?
If you need to increase the Level of your Pets, obviously you will benefit in THAT respect from the 2 and 3 Star Groups, some members of which have higher stamina cost than others. On the other hand, if you are in this position, you may benefit more from using your Pets to take Orders from the permanent Guest groups that give Pet Cards as their Rewards.
Ideally, the fact that the same Passport can be used for a 3 Star Group as a 1 Star Group should make it more profitable to use that passport for the higher Star Group. In this case, however, the programming is faulty. I seldom have received more than 3 Lunch Boxes from a 2 Star Group and often only 2, the same number I ordinarily receive from the 1 Star Group. 3 Star is worse... Jane has twice the number of Orders of any other Guest in that group, so you wait about forever for THAT to finish... and in two cases, I received NO LUNCH BOX at from her. I actually received 3 Lunch Boxes in total from the 3 Star Group more than once, no more than the total given by the 2 Star Group. Note however that another player has reported she gained only 1 Lunch Box from a 1 Star Group, so even there the results are random.
What this means in practical terms is, that if you need 4 Lunch Boxes per day to reach the total needed for the Springtime Base Merge in the Factory before the option expires on 9 April, you may fall short even if you invite the 2 or 3 Star Groups. You may have to use more than one Passport each day to reach the goal. If you wish to use the least amount of your own supplies and still achieve the goal, it probably is just as good to invite the 1 Star Group twice, receiving 4 Lunch Boxes per day or invite the 2 Star Group, hoping for 4 Lunch Boxes and, if you receive less, invite THEM or the 1 Star Group again. The 3 Star Group takes too much from your farm in supplies and time and more often than not, does not give any more Lunch Boxes than the 2 Star Group.
Spring Picnic 1, 2 and 3 Star Groups

There are 3 Star levels for the Spring Picnic Guests.

Results for other Players
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nony Mous, a member of our Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk Group had similar experiences. She wrote: Special Guests: most of the time, guests do not give lunch boxes. This has been my consistent experience with Levels 1, 2, & 3. After not receiving ANY lunch boxes from guests on two separate visits, I have been paying TC to have the Level 3 guests come. Twice after paying for Level 3, I received ZERO boxes. At the rate unpaid guests are giving lunch boxes, it will be mathematically impossible for anyone to acquire enough boxes by April 9 to complete one base, let alone two. And even if you pay TC for extra passports, your guests do not always give boxes, which they should if one pays for them to come. I've written to support about this, but have yet to receive a response. Thus far, after paying for Level 3 to come five times, I have only 10 lunch boxes, and these include what I received from the other guests as well. So only 10 boxes from 8 visits, and with FOUR visits garnering ZERO lunch boxes (2 paid & 2 unpaid.) Additionally, these guests, especially Level 3, ask for excess amounts of goods, much like the previous special guests who wanted loads of chocolate. These mostly want butter, sandwiches, meat loaf, and chocolate eggs. Jane is the hardest guest and takes the longest time. I use auto bargain until only Jane is left, then call my slowest pets back home.

Final Reward: Springtime Base
New Update
xxxxxxxxxx
Batch Cleaning Option
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Note on 22 April: I do believe this is sorting itself out now and the Clean Tickets option now represents the actual condition of the farms that your pet visits.
Please note that game is extremely glitchy at present and inconsistent so everything I wrote below may vary from farm to farm... will update when the developers sort it all out.
You now can obtain 'Clean Tickets' from your Country Club Packages (based on the amount you have spent in the game over time) and in Pet Chests that you open. Open your Neighbours Menu, click the Brush and choose the Neighbour you want to visit remotely. During this period you will not be able to visit any Neighbours but you can 'x' out the animation of your Pet to work on your farm and even travel to your Island or vice versa. It actually is your Pet who visits the Neighbour and it takes 10 to 12 seconds to complete for each Neighbour or Buddy chosen. If you send your Pet to more than one Buddy or Neighbour in a single action, the time will be multiplied by the number he or she visits, limited to 20 at a time. When the action completes, claim the Reward.
When you initiate the process, you will see the following: Are you sure you want to use 1 Clean Ticket? You can use them to collect Cleaning Gift Boxes, Cooking Gift Bags, get Neighbour Rewards and Help your Neighbour all at once.
Note that this is an extra option that carries its own price in the form of the Clean Ticket. You can still visit the same neighbour or Buddy in the ordinary way and claim Rewards manually or perform actions that are not given through the Clean Ticket option. Most important, in my view, is the special Buddy interactions in the form of feeding a Pet or tending a Buddy Tree... an automated Pet Visit will not perform these actions for you!
Originally, one was receiving the same Rewards from every Neighbour, irrespective of any real differences between farms. Now they appear to have sorted out this rather nice glitch and the Rewards are based on the farms you visit. In other words, if a Farm has the Cooking Bag icon showing in the Neighbour Menu and you choose the automated Visit, you should receive a Cooking Bag from that visit. If the Farmer has Blue Box Decorations, you should receive a Blue Box but if only Purple Boxes, that is what you will receive. The game still is glitchy so do not take this as gospel yet!
You can choose different options, by the way in terms of the automated Visit: Island rather than Seaside, Purple Gift Boxes rather than Blue...
Note that you can tap on the 'x' in the corner of the screen to get rid of the animation that shows your Pet cavorting across the screen on his or her way to other farms and there is no problem with gameplay even when you have the option activated for 20 Neighbours/Buddies. 20 is the maximum you can activate at any given time, but if you wish to use more Tickets, simply start a new session. Players are able to use the tickets to visit their Buddies more than once in a way, but this may not have been intended either. Again will revise this post in a few days depending on how game changes.
Whatever rewards your Pet earns from a neighbour probably will not be available if you visit the same neighbour manually afterwards. On other words, many players report that, if the Neighbour had dishes at the Cooking Stand and your Pet claimed the Reward during a Clean Ticket visit, you will not be able to claim that one again on the same day from that Neighbour.
Feeding Your Pets
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A very welcome change in the form of the ability now to feed your Active Pets from the Pet House without forcing them to return home. You therefore can go to your Pet House during any Guest Visit to give your Pets Food to restore their Stamina without having to search for them or try to dodge behind a large imposing guest to obtain the Food Menu for that Pet. Wonderful!
Fishing Trade Shop
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This is a wonderful new option. Note that you now can sell your fish at the Pier for shells and then use the Shells to 'buy' the Fish you want. If you use the Coin Shop, you should have some fish that are fairly valuable but never used in Recipes such as the Flower Horn Cichlid that sells for 225 Shells or the Seahorse selling for 228 shells. You can buy a Mackerel for 273 Shells for example..
To use this option, tap on the icon of the fish on a scale to the right of the actual pier. You will see one tab for selling and one for buying.
If you have a fully upgraded Goldfinger tech, you can make any Smoked Fish in your Smokehouse using the Tech even if you do not have any actual Fish in your Barn of the sort you are smoking.
Experience Bank
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Old maximum Level of 150 no longer applies but when you reach that level, you will see a new XP bar at the top left of the screen. Through this you can reach your 'Experience Bank' where you can use your XP to purchase Bonus Tickets. With these tickets you can purchase a Bonus Lucky Item for 10 Tokens or a Poodle Card for 40 Bonus Tickets. The Poodle Cards operate in the same way as any Pet Card. When you have 100 Poodle Cards, you can trade them for a Poodle. As always, the gender of the Pet will be random.
Introduction
xxxxxxxxxx
This post contains all information about the Springtime Base, both methods of obtaining it (with full Farm Fest Quest details), methods of obtaining the Materials for it, all information about the Spring Picnic Guests, with their actual orders and Lunch Boxes received as Rewards and at the end, some information about changes in the game with the new Update.
The Springtime Base
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
You still can obtain 1 Springtime Base from the Lighthouse Mission if you did not complete the Mission previously. (Still active, according to our group member, Melissa Elder.) You can obtain a SECOND Springtime Base by merging the materials in your Factory. All tasks for the Farm Fest Quest that will give you a Springtime Base is given at the end of this post.
It looks as though only ONE Springtime Base can be made by any player in the Factory so if you want two, you need to have one from the Lighthouse Mission.
Note, as previously indicated, that you now can merge a Springtime Base in the Factory when you have collected sufficient materials. Materials for the Springtime Base will be given in a series of activities. The first is the Cooking Bag Stand where you randomly can find a material in the March Cooking Bags. To forge a Springtime Base you will need 12 Spring Wreath from the Cooking Stand bags, 6 Picnic Soda and 40 Lunch Box. The 6 Picnic Sodas were obtained from the highlighted Order on the Daily Order Board through 30 March, now no longer an active option.
Note that you can purchase the Spring Wreath and the Picnic Soda now in the Daily Special section of the Market. The Spring Wreath costs 70 TC and the Picnic Soda costs 70 TC as well.
The new game update and the changes in the game it brings are discussed at the very end of this post. One section deals with Batch Cleaning and Clean Tickets.
Spring Picnic Guests
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
The new Spring Picnic Guest Groups found in the lower left corner of your Guest House Menu will give you the 3rd and final Material required to merge a Springtime Base in the Factory.
You should receive a total of 2 Lunch Boxes from the 1 Star Group consisting of only 2 Guests. The 2 Star Group consists of 4 Guests but you may not receive a Lunch Box from each of them. In two separate Visits, I received only a total of 2 Lunch Boxes from the entire Group. In another visit, however, the 2 Star Group did give me 4 Lunch Boxes... it therefore is random to some extent for the 2 Star Group and the 3 Star Groups. I posted actual order lists below but your results could be either better or worse. With the 3 Star Guests, I found that the ratio of Lunch Box Rewards to Guest Orders was pitiful! One Guest in the 3 Star Group requires 8 Orders and on two separate visits, I received NO Lunch Box from her!
Provided you have a total of 10 Paths on your Farm, you can use a Passport to invite the 1 Star Group of Guests immediately. These consist of Huey and Antonio. They each give four Orders and, provided you complete all of them, each should give you 1 Lunch Box Material for the Base. I use the word 'should' as it may be random actually, but the probabilities are very high with the 1 Star Group, unlike the 2 and 3 Star Groups where probability of receiving a Lunch Box appears to be far lower.
As of Sunday, 2 April, the best value is the 1 Star Guest Group that never has failed to give 2 Lunch Boxes. I have invited all of them repeatedly but many times, you fill more orders at the higher star levels but do not receive more Lunch Boxes. It always IS RANDOM, but results should be better! If Support changes the odds of receiving Lunch Boxes, I will update this.
Advantages of inviting 2 or 3 Star Guest Groups
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
If you have not been playing the game long, I suggest you look at the actual Order Lists for the 2 Star and 3 Star Guest Groups before you use your Telescopes, in particular, to unlock 2 and 3 Star. Remember that the Spring Picnic Guests are a temporary addition to Mootopia. There is no permanent advantage to unlocking the 2 or 3 Star Groups if you cannot fill the orders easily.
The number of Lunch Boxes you receive always is RANDOM and the odds are very much NOT in our favour for the 2 and 3 Star Guests. What then are the advantages of using your Passport for the 2 Star or 3 Star Groups?
If you need to increase the Level of your Pets, obviously you will benefit in THAT respect from the 2 and 3 Star Groups, some members of which have higher stamina cost than others. On the other hand, if you are in this position, you may benefit more from using your Pets to take Orders from the permanent Guest groups that give Pet Cards as their Rewards.
Ideally, the fact that the same Passport can be used for a 3 Star Group as a 1 Star Group should make it more profitable to use that passport for the higher Star Group. In this case, however, the programming is faulty. I seldom have received more than 3 Lunch Boxes from a 2 Star Group and often only 2, the same number I ordinarily receive from the 1 Star Group. 3 Star is worse... Jane has twice the number of Orders of any other Guest in that group, so you wait about forever for THAT to finish... and in two cases, I received NO LUNCH BOX at from her. I actually received 3 Lunch Boxes in total from the 3 Star Group more than once, no more than the total given by the 2 Star Group. Note however that another player has reported she gained only 1 Lunch Box from a 1 Star Group, so even there the results are random.
What this means in practical terms is, that if you need 4 Lunch Boxes per day to reach the total needed for the Springtime Base Merge in the Factory before the option expires on 9 April, you may fall short even if you invite the 2 or 3 Star Groups. You may have to use more than one Passport each day to reach the goal. If you wish to use the least amount of your own supplies and still achieve the goal, it probably is just as good to invite the 1 Star Group twice, receiving 4 Lunch Boxes per day or invite the 2 Star Group, hoping for 4 Lunch Boxes and, if you receive less, invite THEM or the 1 Star Group again. The 3 Star Group takes too much from your farm in supplies and time and more often than not, does not give any more Lunch Boxes than the 2 Star Group.

Results for other Players
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Nony Mous, a member of our Family Farm Seaside Freyashawk Group had similar experiences. She wrote: Special Guests: most of the time, guests do not give lunch boxes. This has been my consistent experience with Levels 1, 2, & 3. After not receiving ANY lunch boxes from guests on two separate visits, I have been paying TC to have the Level 3 guests come. Twice after paying for Level 3, I received ZERO boxes. At the rate unpaid guests are giving lunch boxes, it will be mathematically impossible for anyone to acquire enough boxes by April 9 to complete one base, let alone two. And even if you pay TC for extra passports, your guests do not always give boxes, which they should if one pays for them to come. I've written to support about this, but have yet to receive a response. Thus far, after paying for Level 3 to come five times, I have only 10 lunch boxes, and these include what I received from the other guests as well. So only 10 boxes from 8 visits, and with FOUR visits garnering ZERO lunch boxes (2 paid & 2 unpaid.) Additionally, these guests, especially Level 3, ask for excess amounts of goods, much like the previous special guests who wanted loads of chocolate. These mostly want butter, sandwiches, meat loaf, and chocolate eggs. Jane is the hardest guest and takes the longest time. I use auto bargain until only Jane is left, then call my slowest pets back home.

New Update
xxxxxxxxxx
Batch Cleaning Option
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Note on 22 April: I do believe this is sorting itself out now and the Clean Tickets option now represents the actual condition of the farms that your pet visits.
Please note that game is extremely glitchy at present and inconsistent so everything I wrote below may vary from farm to farm... will update when the developers sort it all out.
You now can obtain 'Clean Tickets' from your Country Club Packages (based on the amount you have spent in the game over time) and in Pet Chests that you open. Open your Neighbours Menu, click the Brush and choose the Neighbour you want to visit remotely. During this period you will not be able to visit any Neighbours but you can 'x' out the animation of your Pet to work on your farm and even travel to your Island or vice versa. It actually is your Pet who visits the Neighbour and it takes 10 to 12 seconds to complete for each Neighbour or Buddy chosen. If you send your Pet to more than one Buddy or Neighbour in a single action, the time will be multiplied by the number he or she visits, limited to 20 at a time. When the action completes, claim the Reward.
When you initiate the process, you will see the following: Are you sure you want to use 1 Clean Ticket? You can use them to collect Cleaning Gift Boxes, Cooking Gift Bags, get Neighbour Rewards and Help your Neighbour all at once.
Note that this is an extra option that carries its own price in the form of the Clean Ticket. You can still visit the same neighbour or Buddy in the ordinary way and claim Rewards manually or perform actions that are not given through the Clean Ticket option. Most important, in my view, is the special Buddy interactions in the form of feeding a Pet or tending a Buddy Tree... an automated Pet Visit will not perform these actions for you!
Originally, one was receiving the same Rewards from every Neighbour, irrespective of any real differences between farms. Now they appear to have sorted out this rather nice glitch and the Rewards are based on the farms you visit. In other words, if a Farm has the Cooking Bag icon showing in the Neighbour Menu and you choose the automated Visit, you should receive a Cooking Bag from that visit. If the Farmer has Blue Box Decorations, you should receive a Blue Box but if only Purple Boxes, that is what you will receive. The game still is glitchy so do not take this as gospel yet!
You can choose different options, by the way in terms of the automated Visit: Island rather than Seaside, Purple Gift Boxes rather than Blue...
Note that you can tap on the 'x' in the corner of the screen to get rid of the animation that shows your Pet cavorting across the screen on his or her way to other farms and there is no problem with gameplay even when you have the option activated for 20 Neighbours/Buddies. 20 is the maximum you can activate at any given time, but if you wish to use more Tickets, simply start a new session. Players are able to use the tickets to visit their Buddies more than once in a way, but this may not have been intended either. Again will revise this post in a few days depending on how game changes.
Whatever rewards your Pet earns from a neighbour probably will not be available if you visit the same neighbour manually afterwards. On other words, many players report that, if the Neighbour had dishes at the Cooking Stand and your Pet claimed the Reward during a Clean Ticket visit, you will not be able to claim that one again on the same day from that Neighbour.
Feeding Your Pets
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
A very welcome change in the form of the ability now to feed your Active Pets from the Pet House without forcing them to return home. You therefore can go to your Pet House during any Guest Visit to give your Pets Food to restore their Stamina without having to search for them or try to dodge behind a large imposing guest to obtain the Food Menu for that Pet. Wonderful!
Fishing Trade Shop
xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
This is a wonderful new option. Note that you now can sell your fish at the Pier for shells and then use the Shells to 'buy' the Fish you want. If you use the Coin Shop, you should have some fish that are fairly valuable but never used in Recipes such as the Flower Horn Cichlid that sells for 225 Shells or the Seahorse selling for 228 shells. You can buy a Mackerel for 273 Shells for example..
To use this option, tap on the icon of the fish on a scale to the right of the actual pier. You will see one tab for selling and one for buying.
If you have a fully upgraded Goldfinger tech, you can make any Smoked Fish in your Smokehouse using the Tech even if you do not have any actual Fish in your Barn of the sort you are smoking.
Experience Bank
xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Old maximum Level of 150 no longer applies but when you reach that level, you will see a new XP bar at the top left of the screen. Through this you can reach your 'Experience Bank' where you can use your XP to purchase Bonus Tickets. With these tickets you can purchase a Bonus Lucky Item for 10 Tokens or a Poodle Card for 40 Bonus Tickets. The Poodle Cards operate in the same way as any Pet Card. When you have 100 Poodle Cards, you can trade them for a Poodle. As always, the gender of the Pet will be random.
