A Night At The Drive-In

A Night At The Drive-In FAQ

Thanks again to Northy for crunching all the numbers. I have to say there were a few expletives when I read through this one.

Again there are Joe's Diner upgrades to be had as well as a Picolo Box.

For this one you will need breeding badges from Mammals, Athropods and Birds.
You will also require drops of Sea Salt which are harvested from crops and trees on all 3 main farm lands and Baha Plantation and Rainforrest.

You will also need to mill drive-in foods to donate (does anyone still have drive-in movie theatres? We have 1 left and its quite run down)

Milling Totals
24 Large Menus
84 Medium Menus ***** EDIT*** now 66
162 Small Menus
1050 Popcorn ****EDIT 930 ***
210 Soda Pop
66 Cheese Nachos

Requirements
1320 Sea Salt - drops from crops & trees
5910 Corn

Good Luck everyone participating.

 

The sea salt drops from crops and trees, which makes getting those a lot better.

 

Thanks for the doing the hard work, CT! A little complicated but thanks to you, all made straight forward.

I'm all in for this one even though I am a tad short of PF (about 250!) but with the 40 PF in prizes and some that I have been saving from FSQs, I should be able to make the shortfall - with a little help from those random extra badges.
My strategy: collect all the drops first and/or wait for BB ... and (you have to wish) a half price event!
Whether I finish or not, it all helps towards those oh so long breeding FSQs.
Good luck all and may the skips be high and plentiful!

 

Hey, I just typed it out and had a cursory glance over the numbers. All calculations are bought to you by Northy!

 

Thanks for Info Northy/CT

I am all in with this Event, It would cost roughly 600 Power Feeds to get all those breeding badges, it will be less than that as we often get double breeding badges at random, which helps reduce the amount of Power Feeds needed as it not easy to conserve Power Feeds for next Breeding Event

We not had an Half Price Breeding for a while, Fingers Crossed

I shall wait until Baby Boom Starts as waited for Baby Boom Announcement

Be Cautious when you get to Parking Spot 1,2 and 3 [Task 9] as the booster is activated instantly

i try use my Power Feeds to get couple steps nearer completing some unfinished breeding quests, i am short of some Breeding Animals needed for this event

I think i will try my luck on Crate O Birds, Crate O Goody Animals and Crate O Perky Animals

 

Thanks Northy/CT and ctindaldavies for your numbers and posting them here for people like me! My plan is to do Left side only and see how that goes BUT I will wait to see if Baby Boom is announced! Good Luck to all!

 

Thanks CT & Northy.

So we need to mill 1050 popcorns ? It will take over 2 and 1/2 hour ??

 

Yikes One-Two - nearly 3 hours!

 

I am fainting illy ! I have put 1050 popcorns into mill. But its the 600 PF that's making me faint much more. I am rethinking whether the cloudrow is worth 600 PF. If within the next 1/2 hr, I think the event is not worth doing. I will cancel the milling process and do the other event alone.

Can someone help me decide ?

 

Oh, I didn't even look at the CR! LOL!

For me, the prizes along the way are a lot more attractive and also I can chip away at those breeding FSQs. I am nearly there with so many and it would only take a good Skip Fairy to wave his/her wand and I would finish another one (or two maybe)! Win win with a breeding event!

As you say, though, that's a lot of PF. I have a few of my FSQs at the 9th or 10th level with animals waiting patiently to be donated (don't use it until I really need it), I can get quite a bit - perhaps check out your FSQs and see if you have any PF lying around waiting to be collected, One-Two.

 

That's a good idea illy. I will check the FSQs

 

Popcorn is 4 seconds each on this farm...oh wait - you must mean for the entire 1050 and without the mill subscription.

The cheeses were the issue on my teenager farm, but fixed that last night. So my usual 3 are doing this event.

That is if I can figure the whole thing out. Seems so complicated...maybe I need moar coffee.

 

I am doing 1 side at a time to see how that works for me. So I will breed 100 mammals to do the left side and mill the products needed for that side ! I hope that helps you good luck oh yes and I will not breed till a baby boom!

 

I have done 220 Pop Sodas, almost finished 1050 Popcorns as i am using both Mills which can be done in half of the time

Anyone who has incomplete Breeding Quests at Level 9 and Level 10 gives back lots of Power Feeds which can be used during events to get breeding Badges as Illy Correctly advised these Power Feeds are ideal to be reinvested to work on other Breeding Quests

Those who have surplus Farm Coins can spend Farm Coins in SHOP O RAMA to buy two Power Feed Bundles which is reset every month this is what i do with my farm coins since we do not get back much Power Feeds like we use to get

If you think the Cloud Row not worth it, just do what you are happy with to get other decent prizes as you have posted in Feedback Forum to have Rethink on Events

I have been lucky hoarding holdback my Barn of ample amount of Power Feeds as working of Quests does help, plus Shop O Rama too

 

I think for this one I'm waiting to see if there will be a Baby Boom. With a BB I'll definitely do it, without.....we'll see.

 

Thanks, Mooboy, I forgot about buying PF with farm coins - that's 140 less that I don't need to get from my FSQs. I only need about 100 more now and some of the breedings may give me extra badges sooooo ... I'm looking good to go!

Wait ... with 40 PF in the prizes, I only need 60 (well actually 59!) to be extracted from my FSQs! Wahoo!

 

what do i have to grind with what and how
activity is very confusing
my brain is burned

 

Hi guys - got an edit from Northy - only need 66 medium menus. As I said the only thing I calculated for myself was the cheese Bahahaha.

I've got the breeding badges because I am impatient and I hate waiting for baby boom, which 9/10 does not coincide with a half price feed. I had the breeders anyway so just went for the badges. I did not have 600PF, probs around 500. A lot of the breedings are giving double badges out.

 

Let me break it down for you by section. If you're planning to complete the entire event, just multiply everything by 3.

1) Make sure you have the following in your barn:

440 sea salt
1590 sugarcane
1770 corn
140 lemons
350 water
22 cheese​

2) Mill the ingredients listed above into these mill products:

310 popcorn
70 soda pop
22 cheese nachos​

3) When finished, mill 54 small menus.

4) When finished, mill 22 medium menus.

5) When finished, mill 8 large menus.

Repeat for each section.

P.S. 3 * 310 popcorn = 930 popcorn
