Co-opt an unused game tab to 'add' a new game

Tips & Tricks ››

If Farm Report does not support one of your favorite games, you may be able to 'co-opt' one of the unused game tabs for your unsupported game.  For example, you can use the 'Personal' tab, or (if you don't play Farm Town, for example) the Farm Town tab.  You would then add (to that tab) Custom Items for each of the unsupported game's items.


One thing to keep in mind when co-opting a game tab: each game tab has a different 'day length'.  Farm Town has a 20 hour day, FarmVille has a 23 hour day, and the 'Personal' tab has a 24 hour day. Ideally you would co-opt a tab that has the same 'day length' as the unsupported game.  If you are not able to do that, you must adjust the items' 'growth time' as you create the Custom Items.  For example, suppose the unsupported game has a day length of 22 hours.  If you are adding a Custom Item that has a growth time of '2 days' (using the game's 22 hour days), you must create a Custom Item with a length of 44 hours, which is the same as 1 (24 hour) day plus 20 hours.
