FarmVille Garage Guide to how it works

FarmVille has rolled out a new storage building this week. The Garage can be used to store and upgrade tractors, harvesters and seeders. Here is everything you need to know about Garages. 


Garages

Garages are used to store Tractors, Harvesters and Seeders. You can also use the Garage to upgrade your Vehicles so you can farm faster than ever before! If you are level 22 and above, you can purchase a Garage Frame from the Market for 50,000 Coins.

Building the Garage is very similar to building a Japanese Barn. To construct your Garage, you will need to collect 10 Boards, 10 Bricks and 10 Nails. 

Once you have placed your Garage Frame, click on “look inside” from the Garage’s menu. Doing so will open a page that displays what you need to complete your Garage. You can collect materials for your garage in three different ways:




1. From neighbors via the Free Gifts Menu

Neighbors can send you the components you need to build your Garage. Your Neighbors will be able to send you one of the three types of building components to help you finish your Garage. 




Please note that the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page are randomized. As such, the components displayed on the Free Gifts Page may be different for each player. Each player should be able to send one component specific to the Garage.

When neighbors send you a building component, it works exactly like any other free gift. After you accept the gift it will appear in your gift box. After clicking the "use" button under the gift it will automatically be added to your Frame.

2. Ask For More

When viewing the interior of your unfinished Garage Frame, each component that you have not yet received 10 of has an ‘Ask For More’ button, that when clicked will take you to the Friend Selector page where you can select friends to send Gift Requests to for your chosen component.






3. Completing with Farm Cash.

If at any time during your construction process you decide that you’d rather simply purchase the individual items required for the Garage, you can do so by clicking the “buy” button underneath a component in the Garage’s menu. Alternatively, if you do not wish to buy the parts for the Garage individually, you can click the “Complete Now” button.






Once your Garage is complete, it can be used to hold up to 20 vehicles on your Farm. Completing your Garage also unlocks the ability to upgrade your Vehicles. 

To upgrade a Vehicle, place it in your Garage and click “look inside”. You will see the following menu that will display all of your stored vehicles. 






Upgrading your Vehicles will increase the amount of plots they affect (2x2, 3x3 etc). The higher level your Vehicle is, the more plots it will affect. Currently, the highest you can level your Vehicles to level 4. 

Upgrading Vehicles requires Vehicle Parts. You can obtain Vehicle Parts two ways:

1. Ask For More

When viewing the Garage’s menu, you will see an ‘Ask For Parts’ button, that when clicked will take you to the Friend Selector page where you can select friends to send Gift Requests to for Vehicle Parts.

2. Completing with Farm Cash.

If at any time during your upgrade process you decide that you’d rather simply purchase the Vehicle Parts, you can do so by clicking the “Buy Parts” button that can be found in the Garage’s menu. 

Once you have parts, you will see the following menu. From this menu you can select which Vehicle you would like to apply the Vehicle Part to. 





Each Vehicle Level requires the following:

  • Level 1: 2 Parts

  • Level 2: 5 Parts

  • Level 3: 10 Parts (Must be level 26 or above)

  • Level 4: 15 Parts (Must be level26 or above)



Once you complete a level on your Vehicle, you will receive a pop-up that will allow you to post a feed to your wall. The first 10 Neighbors who click on this feed will receive 1 Vehicle Part.

All Vehicles that are stored in your Garage can still be used as normal. At the time, you may only have one Garage on your Farm and Biplanes cannot be stored in them.
