Career Change Times
Posted by Mat on 4 Jul 2016, 11:24 pm
Greetings villagers, we have changed the Career Change cooldown to two hours. This means you can now switch your villager's career every two hours, specifically at :00 on even-numbered hours. If you don't know how to change your career, please navigate to your villager's profile and click on Careers (View All).
Also, please follow us on Twitter - we tweet small updates to the game there, especially QOL changes!

Yikes! I did something similar with Oceandome's bottles too, though I didn't lose anything near a thousand.
Like, I get why they have it step up like this for speed/convenience, but it ends up confusing folks who are used to other input systems on every other browser game.
Maybe if they put the total cost for the entire purchase above the input price, then players wouldn't accidently loose money?
Thats great, though I think the once a day feature was enough-ish in my opinion.
I think the biggest breaker at the moment is the illnesses. I sometimes contract 6 with one villager in less hours than that. The one free doctors visit just isn't enough and at this stage there aren't enough players making medicine to be able too keep up with such an amount. It also looks a bit broken... our villagers imune systems are non existent XD
I agree with burgil that being able to see the doctor for a fee might help fix some of it, but I'd lower the frequency of your villagers getting ill by a lot... if only for these first weeks of the site.
I was hoping for forums to be back up, but its nice knowing that the career cooldown has been reduced, I know that would be helpful for many people (:
Thank you so very much! This is a lifesaver, especially if you change a career only to find out you can't do it yet!

No it saves your progress. : )
Yo that's awesome! Quick question though - when a villager changes careers, do they start over? Like, if I get real good at botany, change to something else, then back to botany, will my successful harvests and all be reset?
This might be a bit too often but regardless I am happy about it.
Wow, this is going to make my villagers much more efficient at improving all of their skills! Thanks!
nice im enjoying my career though
Awesome change! This would help boost the economy most definitely. Still some limitation so things dont get out of control, but a right balance.
Thank you dev team and keep up the great work <3
