    Nearly everyone "solves" the problem by never letting their toolbox get full. A full toolbox will always be bad for Cid, your most frequent special customer. So it is something that will always demand your immediate attention no matter how much it interrupts your other special customers.

    Actually, I am pretty sure Lilly only walks out on you if she's trying to drop a seed and your toolbox happens to be full. I am 99% certain that she still drops me herbs when I have a full toolbox (or full pantry for that matter, I end up with 131 items) and only walks out once in a while, presumably because she's trying to drop seeds.

    At which point I kick myself violently. Next expansion takes 30 seeds, in the mean time 29 seeds sit in my toolbox taking up space for close to a week with no further seed-drops. Seriously tempted to gem through that last seed required.

    Thanks for the explanation PraxisofGood and nmishii. I've never had mine full so it is probably why I haven't noticed it happening to me yet. Though that may change as I'm having to sit on these 40 valentines for quite a while.

    tiggerhobbes, I actually had to delete seeds the other day *cringes* as Cid still hadn't dropped me a shovel. Well that's changed and now he has and my next garden expansion calls for 3 shovels and 10 seeds. I wish I could give them to you instead of having to delete them. I had almost 35 at one point. *winces*

    Well, my toolbox is at the max capacity and has been for sometime. Each time I see one of the three people I need to figure out what the best thing to delete is to allow the drop. Last time I deleted almost 10 planks one by one to find they are never dropped for me anymore.

    No wonder your place looks so seedy Queentina!!! (j/k)

    I think they probably do this on purpose, I think last expansion needed 25 seeds or so and I had 24 seeds that just rained on me in no time, and then no seed for a week. I think it's some sort of algorithm that try to get players to use gem to finish the collection. Technically I could wait another week right? So nobody is forcing me. But this suddenly-no-seed-when-I'm-near-complete-set has recurred so many times for me that it's hard for me to think it's coincidental.

    CID is a little nicer to me. I don't get enough nails but otherwise other items drop fairly evenly. I just have to rotate between deleting boards, blueprints and hammers to wait for that last seed.

    Lily, Cid, and Frank return within a minute or so if full. When I got the full toolbox with lily I let her return 5 or 6 times and still got the full toolbox message. Then I deleted something from my toolbox and she dropped a garlic into my far from full pantry. She drops seeds so infrequently I can't believe she would have tried that many times in a roll.

    Once my pantry was full and she dropped a spice and I was one over the max.

    Merging two threads. I also will check on the status of this .

Because of the low drop rate of seeds, it highly unlikely she was going to drop seeds. You then have to delete something from your toolbox and lily will drop a spice in your pantry.

    Yes, that should happen but I got lazy once I realized he comes back quick rather than losing out a turn and having to wait 30 min. Even so, it the game should still work correctly.

    I have my 40 valentines needed to unlock the last two recipes once I reach that level, so when Frank stopped by earlier I ignored him. He ate, had his little pop-up, then left. A few minutes later he came back and I ignored him again, and again he ate, had his little pop-up and left. Then he came back again and I figured I'd never get rid of him if I didn't just accept the darn card, so I did, and he dropped two, then forcing me to go into my storage and delete them both as I don't want them affecting my tool storage and they already do by having 40 cards sitting there until I can get to the proper levels to use them.

    I really, really WISH TL would fix it so that the Valentine Day Cards didn't reflect on our tool storage as that is really going to cause a problem as we continue to level our buildings or restaurant up as we need those 40 spaces for the ACTUAL TOOLS!

    I thought you just couldn't accept cards if your toolbox was full. Cards don't count as a tool.

    I have 74 tools and 43 v cards, (117) and my toolbox capacity is 115. And yesterday I expanded and had more tools so I was way over capacity if combined.

    It seems like maybe the same bad code for Lily was used for Frank, so neither can accept if the toolbox is full even though they aren't necessarily adding to the toolbox.
