So much is going on all at once. I am bouncing EVERYWHERE!! I am LOVING EA for listening to my pleas. THANK YOU GUYS N GALS!!! YOU ARE AWESOME!
Now…hopping around like a crazy lil Bunny that I am. There a few changes to the game that I am LOVING to see. Makes a lot of things go quicker and easier to navigate. So here goes.
First off…Friend Points or FPs. You know get them EVERYWHERE!!! Seriously. Almost ANY handshake you get…1 FP. (Mainly Buildings.) Now before you get all giddy, there is a catch. This ONLY applies to those that have NOT got all the prizes yet (of course…those done have no need for them. Lol.) So for those of you that were behind or just about there, here is your chance to catch on up. (So don’t need to vandalize anymore really.) WOOHOO!!! 
Now there are also the AWESOME sounds of springs in the air as well as cute lil Spring like activity “buzzing” around. Bees can be seen all over, Humming birds flapping away, and lil butterflies.
Of course…BUNNIES!!!!!!! Cool Pink, Yellow, and Purple in Springfield.
Then there are the “Chocolate Bunnies” in Krustyland (more info on those coming soon.)
UPDATE: So I looked and looked and looked. The information on the “Chocolate” Bunnies is sketchy, but so far I see them doing no more than just look cute and add to the decorations for the Event. You will see them at your neighbors as well as in your Krustyland. Can’t zap them. They produce no eggs. Just hop n hop n hop n hop. I will update if EA changes this.
Our decorations got a makeover too.
Speaking of…how do these changes impact how our 2D and 3D art pieces look? Here are some of our images from Mine and Wookiee’s towns. They look quite cool with the changes.
Speaking of, EA did a really cool thing with the decorations…now if you have a ton in your inventory of one item (like me) and you are trying to place a lot all at once…it will place it automatically next to the same one you just put down in the same direction you were going. WOOHOO!!
Now with buying and placing them…ALSO streamlined. It stacks them next to each other and IMMEDIATELY collects the money from your account. Once you exit out of the buying screen for that item…your XP WHOOOOSHES past at a million miles an hour and collects for you. So frakkin AWESOME! (WARNING: This also means that it will auto-buy them for you too. So be careful when placing them that you stop before your money is all gone. Same with stored items…it jumps to buy when you run out.)
It gets even better. Tasks are more streamlined too. Have a character on a needed task, just click on your task book icon and it will show you RIGHT THERE who is needed on the task…click “DO IT” …and it takes you to them to start it.
Now…you have them on the task and want to know how long they have left…go back to the task icon and click on it…it shows you. Best part is…in the past you had to wait for them to start task or get to building to rush it. Not now. Just pay them donuts and BAM…DONE!
Need to find them when done…no worries there…click on “GO TO”…and it takes you RIGHT TO THEM!!!
GLITCH BE GONE!!! For myself, my B game had that annoying layering glitch and people walking under everything. ALL GONE !! WOOHOO!!
So many amazing changes to the game. EA is really listening to us and putting some great ideas into effect. I will bounce back in with more changes as I see them. For now…ENJOY!

Maybe I am crazy- but I think that the Krustyland shuttle changed as well. I know that there have been 2 different designs- and I swear mine changed to the other one.. I would have the “newer” one, that was sorta plain. and now it is multi-color with a roof. anyone else? or is it just me, and I cannot remember what it looked like ..lol. I am sorta of in pastel overload atm.
Not crazy at all. The bus stop upgrades at the 3 and 5 bouncing ball marks as you improve your Krustyland.
HA! so it was a “me” upgrade and not a game upgrade. Good to know.. those splashy dolphins did it, not the choco bunnehs. Thank you Mr. wookie 😉
Loving MOST of the changes. Like others, not loving that once you’ve placed everything from inventory it automatically switches to purchase. Thumbs down. But all other things, fences lining up, the birds chirping, the teeny tiny bugs…so cute! My layer glitch is still there though! Suzanne the witch is always standing in the fences!
I don’t mind that but I see why some would not like it…was counting on some yellow to add to my collection…but I’ll make do… 🙂
I want yellow decorations too. I NEED THEM! Lol
Hi, sorry if this is answered somewhere else, but I am having trouble downloading this update. And this forum has the best people, all with good motivations, so I’m asking here.
When I click on a friend who apparently has the update, it doesn’t let me visit their town, rather, it says, “so-and-so has newer content than you. It’s update time.” I click “OK” then it takes me to the login page, where I click to continue but I’m still not updated.
I even have logged out and back in, then strangely it tells me that my town wasn’t saved on my other device (and I don’t have another device) and that the progress made may be lost, I continue anyway, but still go back to my non-updated town. Reloading the whole program with my connection might take till Easter Sunday! Any further ideas?
Thanks so much.
Check your app store and see if the update is there. This is an app store update, not an in-game one. So you’ll need to download the new content from your App store. If it doesn’t show up restart your device and check the app store again. If it still doesn’t show up uninstall TSTO (make sure you’re using an origin id to play), restart your device, then reinstall it. Let me know if that helps 🙂
Yes, Alissa, it worked, but it took four hours to download!
Thanks so much.
Yikes on the 4hr download! But glad it worked! And happy to help anytime! 🙂
Hey bunny. I think you still need to address the fact that if you try to place more “stuff” than you have in your inventory box, it’ll automatically charge you for it as if you were buying it. This way people without a lot of money will know they are being charged if they place more than they originally had for each additional item they place down. (Made that mistake with gazebos and they aren’t the cheapest thing.. Although admittedly I have a lot of money lying around)
Good point! This is something we’ll be covering in an upcoming post! But thanks for the reminder! 🙂
Sounds good. Love everything you guys do here for us. Love the site, team and content! (And the positive visitors too). Thanks for all your hard work 🙂
Anytime! We love ALL of our readers and TSTO! The positive attitude around here always makes me smile…we have the BEST. COMMUNITY. EVER! 🙂
So frustrating I had all three needed characters on long task because I had already completed level 39 and the episode tie in so I am already almost 12 hours late starting the 24 task and everyone else has already won all the prizes
Don’t feel frustrated…it hasn’t even been a full 24hrs yet. Those who have prizes have them because they rushed with Donuts (and it’s 36 donuts to rush just part 1!). You’ve got plenty of time, so don’t feel behind. The event doesn’t end until May 13th & we’re going to show you some ways that you can be certain you’ll earn everything! 🙂
Bunny, love your posts. Do u ever add new friends? Can I get on the list? 😉 rcbeatle11
😉
Something I just noticed. Say you have 3 shrubs in your inventory but you want to lay more, once you lay the 3 down, it automatically switches to purchase mode for that item. No backing out and searching for it in the buy menu!!
Nvm. I feel silly. So many posts up I didn’t read through all the comments before posting 😛
I also noticed they fixed the earnings on a couple of the tasks if two characters are needed. I haven’t checked Lisa with Rod and Todd, but interrogate a squealer now earns double, as does rod and Todd on the see saw. So yea!
Lisa babysitting also earns more. 🙂
Hooray! That’s a big one–it was a bummer when Rod and Todd appeared and suddenly three characters in an eight hour task earning only for one. Cheers!
Equal pay for equal work right? 😉
I downloaded the update but there are no bunnies in my game and I have corn growing how bad is not being able to grow carrots going to hurt me?
No event until the 3 finished their “Whacking Day” 24hr tasks.
You can click on “DO IT” when it gets to that part in the event …and see if it auto finishes it like it did on Valentine’s
I’m in the same boat as you…. we’ll see soon!
I’ve been playing on iOS since late Dec 2013 and always had the “do it” function. It didn’t say “go to” when done, but clicking still took you to them.
Oh sure, I lay down at least 100 fences , then the next day they do that LOL. I was at the same time wishing we could store fencing by clearing it the way we can do the streets/pavement/water. Now THAT would be a cool time saver!
I love you EA.
With the Family Guy game out now, I think EA’s going to be working harder because they have some serious competition now. Hopefully that means Whacking Day in May/June, as well as another summer event!
I saw those first four words and was all, Dear EA… you have pleased pkkao into love again… job well done.
ummmm yeah so Im buying my boxes with my eggs and all of a sudden Blocko Land disappears which is what ive been trying to get. anybody else have this problem?
Did you win it without realizing? Check your inventory. (lil cardboard box on left hand lower corner in your menu screen)
No, I got The taco place and the banana place and the father’s son and the egg guy. Those got replace with more options to get gold eggs, seems fair. But I’m still trying for the bunny guy and Blocko land and they disappeared, all i have left is towel, eggs and fences and more gold eggs
Very odd. Try a basic log out and restart your device. See if when you start back up and log back in if it will come back. Let us know.
nope I rebooted and its not there, not in my inventory, just a bunch of fences. Im so bummed, Blocko land was what I wanted the most!!!
You check all the boxes too. See if it…this sounds odd…but JUMPED?
If it is still missing, you can try the old clear cache and date, uninstall, restart, reinstall too. If that doesnt work. Contact EA.
You SHOULD be able to use the arrow and scroll through to see it.
yeah I checked all 3 boxes, several times and check inventory several times :-(. if I have to clear stuff and uninstall the whole game, and then re install, your sure i wont loose my game?
All your info is locked into your Origin ID. So you’re good. I uninstall a lot lately (phone issue)
its weird when it does the scrolling thing, i can see it there, but on the bottom, where the options are its not.
As long as it’s still in the box…you still have chance to win it.
okay sweet, yeah so the picture disappeared on the bottom but I could still see it as things scrolled and after like 6 more runs, I got it <3 yeah! so just in case other people have the same issue, i guess just let em know its still there, technically 😛
WOOOHOOO!! 🙂
Now I can finally place fences with ease!
yeah I love that now!
Looks like the Christmas decorations don’t award FPs when clearing handshakes. I didn’t get any from the tree or the elf house. Not sure about Santa’s workshop or village though.
Right after I posted this, I checked my town and someone had clicked both Santa’s village and workshop. When I cleared the handshakes I had FPs. Looks like it is just the holiday trees and elf houses that don’t give FPs.
Mainly buildings, not decorations. Those are considered decorations. Sorry.
Easter’s here, but where are the bunnies and stuff? I downloaded & noticed no bunnies? Characters are getting ready for Whacking Day & my trees, fences, & shrubs are all pretty, but other than that there aren’t any of the new items in my build menu & NO BUNNIES???!!
Once you complete the 24hr task you’ll unlock the Easter content 🙂
Thanks Alissa! Stuck in time for awhile I guess.
Apologies if this has already been mentioned, or maybe it’s just I’m the odd one out, but my game is actually bypassing the login screen now with this new update, by that I mean if I have already been in the game and it is still running in the background, it logs me straight back in, same goes if I press the lock screen while playing, I no longer get the “tap to continue” screen. Only noticed cos I was trying to log into my B game after being in A and had to stop the app to force it back to the login screen.
Mine always keeps me logged in and you got to catch it to switch to another name in the lower left side of the splash screen on my game. Otherwise, you can go to your friends screen. Tap on bar and Milhouse icon again, and log out of your game from there.
I must be the odd one out then lol. I’m currently just getting the donut on the splash, no sign of origin login… I never realised I could log out from the friends screen, cheers for the tip Bunny!
You’re welcome. I catch mine off and on with the splash screen now. So I use the friend page logout a lot to switch between my two towns. 🙂
Hey, any chance you could give me a quick tip on the krustyland bunnies? I know you said that a post was coming but I’ve been staring at them on and off for an hour, trying to work out if they do anything! Do I need to bring a certain character into Krustyland?
Thanks for any help.
They are there to annoy you basically. Still testing a few things, but so far…they just hop around. No way yet that I can find to rid them out of your town. Still looking though. SO MUCH INFO. Lol.
So far I see them in KL and when I visit neighbors. The files are a bit sketchy on them to. So I am looking at a few other things.
Haha, ok, good to know! I was going crazy trying different things. Thanks for the quick response. Good luck tracking all the info down!
Add me sfaubert1863
Anyone else roll their eyes when they realised that half their fences are the wrong way (coz you need to switch em around to fit round buildings etc)…I did…. such cute and dainty fences!!
I play with the movement all the time in my art. I like they are 360. You can get things so much closer to them. 😉
Yes… I actually think they should allow overlaps, instead of showing up red…. but one can be greedy! Seeing as we have some great changes and each update just feels like a smoother intersection with the game 🙂
They used to. Didn’t work too well. Had to turn feature off.
The amazing 3D teired prison and police station is soooooo cool!!! To be able to design like that….. amazing!!
Check out our 2D/3D page and you can see how we put them together. 😉

Everyone can do it. Just takes time and patience. I have several friends with versions in their towns.
i got 2 Golden eggs in my boxes but where did they go? not in my inventory and they aren’t yellow eggs, what do they do? and how come u can buy blue and pink eggs but not yellow? other then that im so stoked!
THere are 3 boxes. Pink, Blue, and Gold. If you tap on the Easter trophy it will take you to the 3 boxes. You keep collecting until you get enough eggs to buy a box with those specific colored eggs and get a chance at a prize. So for this…you will collect gold eggs that will collect to your gold box and prizes. Make sense?
More info on them is coming. Promise. Complete breakdown. 😉
so the gold eggs are the yellow eggs of no? lol
Yah. They look kinda yellow. You win them too in the boxes.
Faberge Egg will unlock at VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY end of the event quest line.
I’m so hoppy to have the layer glitch gone!
You and me both. 😉
I can’t even imagine how hopped out with excitement you are over it all. 🙂
Poor Alissa…she had to leave the house for a minute. I was driving her bonkers. I WON’T STOP HOPPING!!! Lol. 😛
I loved this post. It confirmed about the placing of decorations but made me jump for joy when i realised that my layering glitch had been fixed like your B game 😀
Cheers bunny!
how come I see others have 4 new building’s and more characters too?? I got none of that 🙁 whaaaaa how do I get it?
The most likely used donuts to rush the first part & used donuts to buy eggs to take a stab at the prize boxes. Don’t worry…there’s PLENTY of time 🙂
Love these changes! I was just doing some decorating with fences and was so happy when they all lined up next to each other, I rushed over here to see if you guys knew about it! As usual, you guys are on top of things 🙂
Hehehe…fingers on FIRE!!!
I don’t know if it’s a change, but there appears to be a difference in the way quests/tasks that use multiple characters show up (Screenshot – http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a365/bisylizzie/10006977_10203302032181267_4494341337063270991_n_zpsf1efc549.jpg)
I think it’s new, but I’ve not been paying too much attention to quest/task thing before this upate.
The link? Nope…a few updates back, just in a newer screen now. I love it. It shows when two characters are joined in a task. In case you don’t know where one of yours are. This way you know they went on a task with someone else. I love they added it a lil bit ago. Glad you got to finally get to see it in your game (or notice it anyway) 😉
Ah, I see. ^^
It’s quite a cool little thing – as are quite a few of the updates they’ve made to bits.
Looking forward to the first part of this new quest finishing up so I can get all the Easter stuff going through. Hopefully it’s on long enough to try and get a fair few nice items/stuff from it. xD
and how come I’m not seeing and butterflies or bees or bunnies? all I got in the update is the new ledges, tees and shrubs?
Wait till your first 24hr tasks finish. Then watch…they are TEEEEEENY. They pop out and flutter here and there all over your game. 😉
Did you notice now when building fence lines that the fences automatically goes to the next place it needs to lay, no more screwing around with the tiny fences and try to line then, just so lol….I love that new fix!!!
Uh huh…I got that in my post…just under 2D/3D art. 😉
Woohoo! Love TSTO and EA!!! And super duper love TSTO Addicts, Alissa, Bunny, and the Wookster!
Awwwww well…WE LOVE YOU SAFI!!! 😉
