HELP, WHY WONT IT LET ME RETURN HOME TO MY OWN ISLAND

[vagrant sphinx]

Where are you currently and what message/issue are you running into?

[lunar atlas]

i am at someones island

And it says theres interferance

But im trying to return home.

[vagrant sphinx]

That means someone is joining or leaving at the same time

[lunar atlas]

nobody was joining or leaving

[hazy canopy]

That means someone on the island is in a menu or interaction, or moving at the island

[lunar atlas]

But im trying to return home

None is at my island

[vagrant sphinx]

Yes you'll also get that message if others are doing certain interactions

It's referring to the people on the island your visiting

[lunar atlas]

The “looks like someone is on their way” kept getting spammed a few minutes ago but nobody ever joined and it was only the announcement at the top of the screen.

[vagrant sphinx]

That's probably because someone was attempting to join but there was a connection error

[lunar atlas]

Well i got it to work atleast

I returned home thankfully

[fringe stag]

It worked! Thank you

[shadow jay]

Which thing do i have to buy to be able to use online custom designs on paths?

[leaden laurel]

You need three stars to unlock the path making, the able sisters for the custom design portal/the addon to your nook phone to access it & Nintendo online if you want specific custom designs

[nimble marten]

What is a fast way to boost your island to 3 stars? My island is currently at 2 stars but it’s taking quite a while

[leaden laurel]

Flowers, bought & made furniture, along with some fencing

[nimble marten]

Alright!

I’ll try planting more flowers, my island seems to lack that.

[rare token]

do random furniature drops happen once every mystery island, or just once per day on them?

[prime stump]

I just got to 3 stars yesterday, I just bought a couple dozen flowers spread them out a bit, and then trees everywhere, I'd also have nookmiles saved up I luckily did and I'm super thankful for it (about 12k)

[leaden laurel]

Furniture drops happen on every mystery island

[sonic root]

I always see peoples islands designs where they have tall walls with their own designs on them. How do I get the walls and what are they called?

[rare token]

tyvm!

[glad dome]

should i just go to npc visits for going to able sisters or somehwere else?

[hazy canopy]

#npc-visits yep

[shadow jay]

which addon is what i was asking

[glad dome]

alr ty!

[hazy canopy]

Do you happen to have an image of such walls?

[hazy canopy]

Furniture drops once a day from Mystery Islands, and 2 times on your own island

[sonic root]

The walls behind the stand

[lilac hound]

Hi can someone explain to me what a ungifted villager is and why people want ungifted (?)

[hazy canopy]

They look like Simple Panels with a custom design
https://catalogue.ac/i/5338-0

[hazy canopy]

Ungifted means that villager hasn't been gifted things they can display, such as clothes, bugs, fish, or floor furniture. It's easy to remove clothes but furniture in their house is much harder to remove unless you have the dlc HHP. Some folks want a villager who hasn't been gifted things they didn't gift themselves, but it's just personal preference

[lilac hound]

Thank you so much

[noble swan]

hi!! apologies if this isn't the right place, but how do you unlock the extra 50 design slots? i've bought all three design-esc things from the kiosk, but am still capped at 50 :,)

[lilac hound]

Is it fine if I’ve time travelled and visit a player that hasn’t or would it affect anything ?

[hazy canopy]

Nope, even if the years and months and times are different it doesn't affect your island. You can visit other people's islands if you want a particular season to find critters tho

[lilac hound]

🙏🙏 thank you so much againn

[hazy canopy]

You unlock more slots when you purchase the Custom Design Pro Editor+ from Resident Services

[rare token]

how do i invite a villager to harv's island without their amiibo?
oh i found it! i didn't realize they counted as furniature, so to speak

[prime stump]

....how do I take a accent wall down?

[shut steeple]

Go into decorating mode (down on the D-Pad) and open your storage (right on the D-Pad)
Go to the wallpaper section and find the one you want to remove (it should have a little green-on-white tick on it, indicating that it's in use)
Hit X to remove the accent wall

[faint drift]

Do you still need to water flowers with the beautiful island ordinance?

[smoky rapids]

Only if you want them to breed, the ordinance makes it so they breed more easily and you get less weed spawns

In any case you don't have to water them for them to grow. Only for breeding

[silk knot]

Do I need to buy dlc or can I get it in game

[livid trail]

You need to buy it (unless you already have a NSO+ subscription, then you should be able to download it without extra costs)

[silk knot]

Hello everybody’s I have a question 🙂 I’m new her and I’m start the game. Do you know where and how to have a new villager in game ? Thanks a lot

[silk knot]

oh okay thanks!

[tawdry rapids]

Can all villagers spawn on ur island when u start the game
by that I mean the 2 random villagers than spawn on ur island when u start

[leaden laurel]

Any path that you want, really

[leaden laurel]

Yes, when you start the game two random villagers are going on that island with you

[tawdry rapids]

I mean are there any villagers that are excluded and can’t be the 2 random villagers that are on the island with me

[leaden laurel]

The sanrio villagers won't spawn at the beginning, but I'm not sure about all the other villagers, as there are over 400 of them

[warm python]

The two starters can only be one jock and one sisterly villagers

[gleaming fjord]

When you start Animal Crossing and you get to the part where you can put the other villagers tent somewhere and when you get done do you not tell them where the tent is or you tell them??? (cause I'm just curious)

[wet gorge]

Hey how do I kick a villiger out

[silk knot]

I would like some new villagers but i already have been on 5 islands with nookmiles but i did not see a villager? How does this work?

[gleaming fjord]

umm in the past did you ask the villagers to bue on your island or did you finish the houses for them?

[silk knot]

Yes ive finished all the houses

[gleaming fjord]

and how about when you asked them in the past??

[silk knot]

I just accepted someone from the camping spot

All the islands im visiting are empty so i dont know what im doing wrond

[shadow jay]

do you have an opened plot

you need to buy them from tom nook.

[silk knot]

How do i do that?

Alright! Thanks!

[shadow jay]

[sullen orchid]

How do I get the step ladder

[plucky lance]

It’s a nook shopping item

Just a heads up though it’s just decor.

[short bone]

i’ve been tting a lot trying to get a villager to move out; i’ve tried the 15 day trick, i’ve tried the month + 1 day trick, NOBODY wants to leave at all! idk if a certain event like the kk concert needs to happen before that but I have 10 villagers and i’m so frustrated that nobody wants to leave. if anyone can help it would be appreciated.

i desperately need goose and graham out, they’re the ugliest things ever 💀

[bold flax]

Well

The last person to ask to move and you said no can't ask again
And the last to move in can't ask again

Other than that, I think it's just luck. Maybe try campsite villager methods, if you get a campsite villager you don't mind? You ask them to move in, say yes when they ask to replace someone, and the exact second they say the name of the villager, if it's not someone you want out
You exit and quit without saving. Then reenter and start over

Sometimes you need to ask lots of times so don't worry if they say no the first time

[short bone]

haven’t had anyone ask to move so far lol

ty btw for the help :))

[short bone]

after a short bit since i sent that message katt finally asked to move! i did. the month + 1 day method which worked perf for me

[bold flax]

Awesome!

[short bone]

for some reason it wouldn’t work the first couple of times but i managed 😭😭

[bold flax]

Yeah that happens sometimes

Something cool is that when you find a day where someone wants to move out, sometimes you can restart that day a bunch of times and the thought bubble will jump from valid villager to valid villager

[short bone]

oh i thought u had to go through this whole process where u go back to the starting day before u time travelled and then time travelled back to the same day and all this hassle 😭😭 (i read so many reviews and tips its actually so annoying bc none of them worked)

a few people had the same issue as me but the things ppl were saying just wouldn’t work

[bold flax]

Ohhh man

That sucks. I'm glad you figured it out

Yeah as long as you quit without saving before your thing autosaves all you have to do is time travel to a different day, usually once forwards

[short bone]

thanks so much for the help :))

[bold flax]

No problem! Good luck!

[bold flax]

Only from certain personalities. One sisterly and one jock will always be your lineup. You will never have any smug, snooty, lazy, etc

But it is completely random from those personalities. Mine were Reneé and Bam

[vast abyss]

Can someone help me out with something 😔 I’m trying to customize my fences and I looked it up that I should purchase the fence customization through the ABD but I’m not seeing it there

Any time I go to my diy table and I try to customize my fences they’re not lit up either 🥲

[tender spruce]

the requirement for it to show up is to have learned how to customize normal items (you probably already do) but also to have crafted at least 2 different types of fencing

And don't forget that Nook gives you 50 picket fencing for free (so even if you own it you may not have crafted it yourself)

[vast abyss]

Omg yay

Thank you so much I was at a loss for so long

[cyan gorge]

So i have 5 blue roses should i beed them together or clone them individualy

[tender spruce]

Both ways will produce more blue roses but it's more efficient to clone them individually
That way each plant rolls for a chance to clone/breed on their own and have a chance of cloning, instead of one flower rolling for a chance to clone/breed, winning it, but picking the neighboring blue rose as mate, disabling that second one from running the clone/breed chance

[cyan gorge]

Ok thanks

[tough arch]

Are the Orange Rose that you can breed using Yellow and Black Rose are Hybrid?

[copper spoke]

What happens if you invite someone to your campsite that you already have living on your island?

[tough arch]

Or it is Special?

[spare adder]

Can you put village's posters in a frame?

[leaden laurel]

Nope! There are villager photos though, which are achieved through becoming best friends with the villager

[spare adder]

Yeah i know, but i liked the idea of hanging a poster with a frame

[zealous latch]

I kinda wanna reset my island, but want to keep certain items like the atm and the shed, if I drop that off on my friends island, will i be able to use it before unlocking it myself?

[leaden laurel]

Yes, you will be able to use it if your friend holds it for you

[zealous latch]

Thanks!

[steep roost]

hiya i kinda forgot is it possible to have the speech bubble on the villagers before the very first kk concert? havent seen a single one and i finished building all the plots

[tough arch]

Another Question about Flowers,
If you dig up a Hybrid flower, it becomes a normal flower?

[livid trail]

No, it's still the same flower

[tough arch]

So it's still stays as a hybrid?

[livid trail]

Yes

[tough arch]

Thanks. (God)

You get the ladder diy from Tom when you do plots 3 to 5

[frank pine]

do villagers move in the town "automatically" if I don't already have 10 like in new leaf or do I have to go to the islands and ask them to move in?

[livid trail]

If there's a plot available, a random one can move in there

[granite agate]

What is the point of HHP? Is it easier to get furniture in regular ACNH? How are they connected? So many questions 😵‍💫

[frank pine]

oh ok, I saw some people talking about buying something in the Nooks shop to make the villagers move in (I think is like a tent? idk), do I have to buy it to have a plot available?

or maybe i'm confusing it with something else, idk

[vagrant sphinx]

How many villagers do you currently have

[frank pine]

2, i'm still in the very beginning of the game

I played for like 3 days

[vagrant sphinx]

Okay! Eventually you will need to build a campsite but you will unlock that longer after you have 5 villagers on your island

And also, what do I do with gyroid fragments?

[midnight light]

I wanna kick out my newest villager (Example: Hippeaux)
If I wanted to kick out Hippeaux, do I get an amibo card, or do I kick another villager out, then add someone new, then kick out Hippeaux since hes no longer the newest?

[celest linden]

Is it possible to put a bridge on a cliff under no water(like this)

Also don’t mind the little guy

[hazy canopy]

You can get a camper to kick out the newest villager or move out someone else to let someone else move in

[midnight light]

do one of these animal crossing packs let you pick the 6 amibo cards or is it random

[sacred wing]

They are all completely random, sorta like pokemon cards

[midnight light]

oh ok

[sacred wing]

I think the only packs that aren't random are the sanrio packs

[plucky lance]

Sadly no. If you’ve seen the pic of this setup floating around it was photoshopped/hacked

[little trellis]

does anyone know how to for sure get a villager to move out because ive been time skipping so much and the bubble is going on almost everyone except stinky and i need him GONE.

[ruby echo]

There isn’t really much to do with the move out method since it’s something that occurs naturally in the game, all you’re doing is speeding up the process. Is Stinky the last villager to move in?

[little trellis]

no D: ive had like 3 or 4 villagers move in after him, 2 of which have already moved out themselves :(

[fervent shore]

Are villagers able to give their picture multiple times or only once?

[clever wedge]

They can gift it to you multiple times!

[fervent shore]

Thank you :3

[little trellis]

is there a way to see every villager youve had on your island or no?

[hazy canopy]

The only way the game remembers is if you have their amiibo and you invite them to The Roost, they'll remember living on the island

[hazy canopy]

Are you already following the Move Out guide?

[little trellis]

yes D:

at least i think so, is it the 15 day one?

[hazy canopy]

You can just start the guide again. Move forward 1 month, Save, then go day by day

Yes you need to get a wooden storage shed or some kind of storage shed

[livid trail]

https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhbeginners/walkthrough/#walkthrough

[shut steeple]

Then you can place it outside. It will give you the option to put things away or take things out!

[broken aurora]

@livid trail ONLY 7 days for quests?IT Is very small quests, I think more quest in game, And what I did next days?

[livid trail]

After unlocking KK it's up to you

But story-wise that's the end of the game and you won't get more quests from Tom Nook

[broken aurora]

@livid trail So then I can just build buildings on the island? That's it?

[hazy canopy]

You need to fully pay off your house and then pay off the 1st storage upgrade, then a diy storage shed and a shed item will appear in the Nook Stop

What do I do with my first gold nugget

Tyyy

[turbid fable]

hello, I would like to know if it is possible to buy several clothes (dresses, pants...) at the same time?

[hazy canopy]

Gold nuggets are uncommon but they are used in some diys. You'll always find gold nuggets eventually, so you don't have to worry you'll never find another nugget again. Asking what to do with it is a personal opinion tho

[livid trail]

At Ables? No

[turbid fable]

oh so it's impossible

someone told me that i can look at my shopping cart by pressing x but nothing happens

[analog juniper]

It should've been added, but sadly not 😔

Also, Not talking to villagers for a long time doesn't effect them wanting to move out sooner, right?

correct

Hi! Do you have a mechanics/factual question about ACNH?

If not please use #general or #acnh-chat⛱️

[analog juniper]

I'm following the move out guide, but my villagers don't seem to want to leave
Is it normal that it takes so long? I've been trying for almost 2hrs now

[unique raven]

Why is Sly not using the workbench I placed for him?

[livid trail]

that's just how it works. Villagers will always use their default workbenches/kitchen

[unique raven]

But Cube was using the kitchen I placed for him...?

[livid trail]

mmm if you are sure, was it placed where he usually took out the default one? There's a set location for those, might be that (but had the impression it didn't matter, they would use their own)

[unique raven]

Cube's kitchen/workbench was placed against the wall next to the entrance and that space is now occupied by his sofa. Plus Sly's workbench used to be somewhere else too, but this space where he is standing is where I placed his kitchen

[analog juniper]

Still wondering if this is a normal time or it takes longer or not

[mortal crater]

it can take longer

if it takes too long just restart

also talk to all your villagers

[analog juniper]

Oh, that's probably why

Some villagers i haven't spoken to since they came to my island, oof

[plucky lance]

Yeah that’s why the guide recommends talking to everyone at least once before beginning the process

[fringe stag]

Are we unable to sell just our fish to CJ? I don't want to participate in the seasports thing, I just want to sell my fish and get more than 2 bells for it

[fringe stag]

Are there any blocks that can retain 2 or more items ? Besides the house storage and player inventory

I'm trying to put together some gifts for my friend but i kinda need to keep em close together so i don't forget

[livid trail]

not really

[nova oar]

For the 3 houses quest do i have to do exterior too or just interior

[nimble cloak]

Both. You'll see stuff you have to make for the outside too

Like a garden chair, etc

[nova oar]

Nooo this is gonna take forever

[unique raven]

You gotta do the challenge first and then you can sell

[analog juniper]

What's the cooldown time before the next villager is willing to move out to the one who moved in

[livid trail]

15 days since someone decided to move out

[analog juniper]

Oh, there's no cooldown for when I move someone in?
Cause I just moved someone in from the campsite

[livid trail]

campsites move-ins doesn't affect it afaik

[warped spire]

if i cut into my island’s cliffs, only enough to make my ramps fit better, would it break my “no terraforming” rule?
they stick out so much 😭😭

[mortal crater]

it is your own rule, you decide

more opinions you can ask in #acnh-chat⛱️

[nimble cloak]

MANY people have that self-imposed rule. I think you've come to what's known as the "letter" of the rule, vs the "spirit" of the rule. If doing what you're doing is still in the spirit of "no terraforming", even tho it is technically terraforming, then decide for yourself if that's justification. But yes ultimately, opinions in #acnh-chat⛱️ ❤️

thank you for answering me sorry i asked in the wrong chat 😅

I gave my villager an outfit and it looks really ugly on them. Is there a way to get them to stop wearing it?

Complaints to Isabelle (Discuss a Resident)

• Complaining to Isabelle does NOT impact odds of moving out nor impact friendship whatsoever.
• The way they talk: Resets custom catchphrases, but NOT nicknames or greetings.
• The way they dress: Removes from their wardrobe whatever clothing items and/or custom designs the villager is currently wearing.

⚠️ DLC-Exclusive:

• The way their house looks: Reverts a starter villager's home interior to their normal interior.
• NOTE: This feature only becomes available once the full storyline of HHP has been completed (30 houses, 5 facilities, DJ K.K.'s concert).

Thanks bot

[vague pine]

How do you get other colors of fencing? I can't customize mine, do I have to get their DIY's in color already?

[exotic junco]

if you're looking for a little extra cash early game and got the grass knit backpack, it sells for double what 20 weed gives, i guess it's up to you if you want to take the time to make a bunch of backpacks to sell

[hazy canopy]

Have you talked to Tom about his customizing workshop?

[smoky rapids]

https://chibisnorlax.github.io/acnhfaq/unlocks/#nook-miles-redemption-unlocks
see if you have met the requirements and purchase this recipe in the nook miles shop
https://catalogue.ac/i/14694

[vague pine]

Yeah 😭 but still can't

[vague pine]

thank you so much!!

[vague pine]

oh I think it's cause I don't have the DIY recipe for simple wooden fencing :(

[smoky rapids]

yes you need to have it and customize it, you can trade if you don't have it available in your nook miles yet, the fences change regularly

Hey guys, I just got to the first kk concert on my island and now I have kind of lost direction, what should I do now?

[hasty dagger]

Is there an online program where I can design/pixelfy any picture that I have? I want to create a custom floor thing 🙂

[hasty dagger]

Create the island that you want to have!

[nimble cloak]

So "Getting to a 3 star island and getting the KK Concert" is the end of the "story mode" of the game so to speak. From here... you can do whatever you want.

[hazy canopy]

The 1st KK concert unlocks cooking, Brewster, terraforming, Harv's commune, HHP dlc if you have it, and lots of things to customize your island

[stable whale]

Awesome I’ll look into some of those things, thank you

[humble urchin]

How does cataloging works? I forget

[livid trail]

Pick up and drop the item

[humble urchin]

????

[smoky rapids]

it'll be available in the nook catalogue to order if it's not limited or craftable

[hazy canopy]

When you furniture is dropped, it looks like a leaf and anyone can pick it up. When someone picks it up, it get recorded in their catalogue automatically. The ideal behind cataloging is just putting it in the catalogue so you can order it later (if you can buy it from Nook's). After picking it up, they give it back to the other person. Cataloging is also called touch trading.

[humble urchin]

Do I have to do it in their island or they have to come to my island?

[hazy canopy]

It can be either

[humble urchin]

Okay thanks!

[hardy sphinx]

Does anyone know how to fix bushes that are in season that aren’t blooming? I recently time traveled a couple of times but did not save my game, however when I went back to regular date on my island all of my bushes are no longer blooming like they used to be despite it being in their season and I really don’t want to have to go and manually replant every single bush so I was wondering if anyone knew a more simple fix to it?

[tender spruce]

you just need to time travel forward day by day/wait a couple days, you should get buds then full blooms again in the following days

[hardy sphinx]

Thank you so much will be trying that Ty really saving me cause I was mad worried

[mint sapphire]

Just started an orchard and these middle trees aren’t growing while everything else has. Originally I thought it was bc of the paths so I erased some but the next day the trees still didn’t grow. How can I fix this?

[fringe stag]

Is there a way to save without leaving the game?
It's been AGES since I was last playing so i've forgotten most of the mechanics

[hazy canopy]

The game autosaves every so often, you'll see the blue dots on the upper right

[fringe stag]

Ah, I see. Thanks

[livid trail]

Too many trees in the area. Grow them somewhere else then replant them there

[mint sapphire]

What would be a good way for testing amiibo cards when buying 2nd hand? Can you scan multiple cards on the museum cafe? Is there a limit on how many amiibos you can scan everyday?

[smoky rapids]

Are you time traveling?

[smoky rapids]

Harv's island is the best way, but keep in mind amiibos can stand thousands of uses, but yes harv's island let you scan 9 at a time

[gilded mural]

Yeah I have been, is that a bad thing?

It happened to my other island and I thought I just had to restart so I made a new island and same thing

[untold rapids]

How can you customise fences?

[lost egret]

i opened the gift for ione that i was suppose to give from another villager. and tossed it bc it didn’t suit her. and now every time i see ione i get “delivery time” and that’s it when i talk to her. what do i do to fix this? i wanna gift her something i have.

no one has answers apparently

like who i’ve asked

[silk knot]

use a crafting table and customization kits, the way you would customize things normally

[leaden laurel]

You have to have customization kits & a crafting bench to use

[tender spruce]

You can't for today, wait for tomorrow when the delivery will be considered as failed and you'll have normal dialogue options again

[fervent shore]

In addition to what kaiyo said previously, you need to have unlocked customization though, by crafting at least two different fences and buying the unlock with nook miles

[lost egret]

thank you

is there anyway i can save by time skipping tomorrow

and then come back and my dialogue will be reset

@tender spruce

[tender spruce]

should work yeah

make sure to open the game while your console is set to tomorrow otherwise it'll be like you didn't time travel

[lost egret]

i’ll try that!

[untold rapids]

Thanks all!

Does star showers happen after 9pm? I thought it was 7 but it's 8 now and nothing

Celeste is visiting my island

[ruby echo]

You could be having very light shower, it can happen anytime between the 7:00pm-4:00am timeframe so just make sure you have the sound turned on and you’re checking periodically

[fringe stag]

👍 thanks!

[hasty dagger]

I have a picture that I want to pixelate for my custom designs. Is there a website where I can import it and decide how many pixels I want it to be ?

[silk knot]

If I delete a Nintendo account does that remove the person from my island? If so, does it remove the donations to blathers etc. ?

[livid trail]

1. No, you need to manually delete from the game start menu by pressing -
2. It shouldn't

[hazy canopy]

Light star showers have stars about 5 a minute, and not for every minute so it's not obvious

[fringe stag]

I see, thank you

I HEARD A STAR IT WORKED THANK YOU

[tender spruce]

To my knowledge, there are no sites that easily tell you how to recreate an image in ACNH by telling you which pixels to set to which in-game color.
However there are some sites that can automatically generate custom design QR codes based on images, but that's the old system that New Leaf used. So note that it is very limited compared to the current design possibilities of ACNH (lower range of possible colors, no transparent background, you can't alter them in-game after importing them) and requires NSO to scan the codes (you scan them through the NSO app on smartphone since the switch has no camera)

One such site is acpatterns.com
(but don't be mistaken by their transparent paint option, it will not work once you export the design as QR)

[tulip dew]

this might be a dumb question but what does villager in boxes mean?

[fervent shore]

How do I differentiate original amiibo cards from bootlegs?

[hazy canopy]

Official amiibos are the size of regular trading cards. 3rd party amiibos are more compact, a bit bigger than a U.S.A. quarter coin

[analog juniper]

With HHP
Can't you go back at any time you want and redecorate the homes?

[exotic jolt]

Didn’t mean to do that. Sorry

[leaden laurel]

Yup! All you have to do is find the villager you did a vacation home for around the paradise island, talk to them, and ask them if they are good with you wanting to redecorate!

[analog juniper]

Awesome, ty!
I plan to Speedrun 30 houses and redecorate them later lmao

I even went as far as making a burner nintendo account, is there seriously nothing I can do to transfer my island? I don’t know who to ask

I have SO MANY FENCES on my island and I am 4* and stuck there. But isabelle keeps saying I need more fencing... do I need brewster to get to 5* or something? I just got him.

[stray lark]

Wait, do I need 5-8 bridges as I am seeing online cause I only have like 1 maybe 2 more places for bridges and I only have 2 bridges right now.

[leaden laurel]

You need more bridges and inclines to help reach a 5* island

Alright I'll see if 2 more bridges will work.

Hello I’m having an issue with the game where I can’t plant the money bag like it just says bury in hole instead of plant like it used to and now it gets buried like an x instead of a small sapling

[clever wedge]

Are you trying to bury the money bag in a glowing hole?

[umbral robin]

I tried both in a glowing hole and a regular one and same thing

[clever wedge]

Hm, it should have given you a sapling if you buried it in a glowing hole... not sure why it wouldn't. I don't remember if it says "Bury in Hole" or "Plant" though, I'd have to double-check

•• FAQ: Unlocking the Able Sisters (Tailors/Clothing Shop) ••
You must buy at least one item from Mabel’s pop-up stand in Resident Services on two separate visits on your own island. Mabel will mention building the shop on her next (third) visit.

NOTE: You do not need to spend 5,000 bells as some sources say. You just have to buy at least one item during each of Mabel’s visits.

[livid trail]

1. Nook's cranny: Pay off your initial Nook Miles debt and upgrade your tent into a house.

2. Resident Services: Pay your Nook Miles debt, give 5 critters to Tom Nook, build Blather’s tent, build the first bridge, build Nook’s Cranny, and complete furnishing the 3 plots.

Excuse me but how do we add friends?

[steep roost]

Hey so I started over my island last week and I've had my first KK concert last night... I interacted with my villagers quite a bit but I've been struggling to get a thought bubble on them :( I've been doing the time skip correctly but after over one hour of trying I'm starting to think I'm missing something? Do I need to interact with them more before any though bubble appears?

[smoky rapids]

Yes when they are in season

[smoky rapids]

You need to be friends on switch (on your profile you can add friends, usually the friend codes are easier)
Then you need to visit each other and they will appear in your friend list

[smoky rapids]

As long as you introduced yourself to them and you have more than 6 villagers they should be able to ask.
If I don't see a bubble after 2 weeks of day by day I usually start over so log, month jump, save, then day by day

[steep roost]

i tried this ill keep trying though maybe im just super unlucky.... also my last 5 visitors at the campsite IN A ROW said they dont wanna move in i feel cursed LOL

[smoky rapids]

You tried starting over, also wdym the camper don't want to move in?

[steep roost]

yes like i said i started over last week so im basically on a fresh island right after KK's first concert

they wont move in they are saying "sorry but i dont wanna move" 😭

[smoky rapids]

No when I mean start over I mean the tt process.
You need to insist if they don't wanna move in though. May I ask how many villagers do you have?

[steep roost]

oh sorry, yes i have :( i skipped over 5 months in total spent at least over an hour trying to find one thought bubble
i have 10 villagers

[smoky rapids]

ok so as I said, if you tt, if you don't see a bubble after 2 weeks of day by day, start over.
log on a day, talk to villagers, skip a month, save, then day by day. if you see a bubble during the two weeks of day by day continue , if not start over the process.
as for camper, you need to insist, they can come in and kick a villager, if you had 9 villargers or less you'd need to place a plot, but here you just need to insist. it once took me 3 hours for the camper to ask to move in, or at least play the game for them to move in, so to be afraid to harass them

[steep roost]

thank you!!! ill be trying this

[woeful hare]

I just had kk come to my island for the first time today and i unlocked island designer but my nookstop doesnt have the new items and the learn to cook guide, will it appear tomorrow or do i need to do something for it to show up? i havent gotten a letter from harvey either

Usually I answer questions but now I have one to ask... Is there a way to have like an overhead view of your plane's flight pattern? Like so you can be clear what part of the island your plane flies over during arrival? Is it the same for everybody? Does it depend on Airport location?

[plucky lance]

Not sure how it compares Island to island but you can get a sense of it whenever you’re flying back from visiting another player’s island!

[leaden laurel]

To see the overhead view, I would record your character flying from one place back to your island, so you know, yes it's the same for everyone, I'm pretty sure it does not matter on airport location

** actually, it does depend on airport location, nvm

Nope! It's impossible to have literally anything or even climb up on the fourth level of your island

[muted forge]

Bummer, thought so. Just wanted to double check

It won't be every day, but it will be 2-3 or more times a week while you are trying to get the Able sisters shop

[upbeat kelp]

Thank you!

[tough arch]

I forgot it's name 💀

[hazy canopy]

Do you mean posters at Harv's Photopia? You have to invite your villagers there in order to gain access to their posters

[tough arch]

For inv i need a stuff called "Amiibo"?

[hazy canopy]

You don't need an amiibo to gain access to villager posters unless you want them faster; the villager does have to live on your island and then you call them up while you're inside Photopia. This makes their poster show up in the catalog. With amiibos the villager doesn't need to live on your island

[tough arch]

And,
How do call them up?

wait theres a

A menu i guess for it?

From the furnitue menu

@hazy canopy

[hazy canopy]

Yep! It's the icon all the way to the right of the Furniture menu, I was double checking, you can also scan an amiibo in Editing mode and they pop up

[tough arch]

Then getting villagers is easy peasy.
Right?

I MEAN

villager posters

Thanks for telling meh this fact! @hazy canopy

[hazy canopy]

Yep, as long as they live on your island or you have their amiibo. Some folks get posters confused with Photos, where Photos are given to you by chance from high friendship villagers

Someone has little butterflies on this plant that fly around it, but normally ik this furniture piece doesn't do that

[royal sleet]

That’s a dlc happy home paradise polishing feature

[unique raven]

Can a full island of 10 villagers have nobody crafting or am I going crazy? I redecorated all of their houses and 8/10 have both a kitchen and a workbench in their house, 2 don't have either because I couldn't make those fit... But they'd then just plop down their bench or kitchen, right?

[mortal crater]

yea, that's correct

is there any event going on on your island?

[unique raven]

Oh it's the fireworks... But that ain't happening until 7PM

[vestal river]

How do I want to removed the unwanted hills and bridges?

[glass bobcat]

Speak to Tom Nook about infrastructure > “About bridges/inclines” > “Demolish something”

[glass bobcat]

Villagers won’t craft at all on certain special event days. This includes bug-offs, fishing tourneys, and days with fireworks iirc

[tough arch]

When a villager in boxes on your island, can you invite someone else on other people island?

Or wait until they leaves?

[livid trail]

wait until they leave

[south dust]

Hey guys, saharah is always selling me the same rugs at harvs land, is it a glitch or something??

She always sells me these

[glass bobcat]

They’ll be the same for the whole week. If you check back each Monday, that’s when you should see new ones. Though it doesn’t guarantee that you won’t see some repeats sometimes

[south dust]

Oh!! I see, tksm!! 🙂

[spare adder]

I wanted to make little flowerbeds but i was wondering if there enough space for flowers to breed

I made 6 of these but i only got 1 new flower in two days, is this normal? (I've been watering all flowers regularly)

[livid trail]

.t watering - Looks like there are a few spaces free, yes. Also, that's normal because breeding chances are low if you are the only one watering

[analog juniper]

Very late I just woke up,
Thank you!

[livid pier]

oh cool. thank you! I haven't had that situation yet so I was wondering. 🙂

[mortal crater]

how many do you have?

you can only have 10 animal villagers

[analog juniper]

Can you move out villagers in HHP? Or are you stuck with what you get? :0

[smoky rapids]

you can do houses for all villagers so there is no need to move them out, you can give them roomates or change back to single house if you need though

[analog juniper]

AYO?
I forgot about roommates
But I'd have to pair them with characters they share similar tastes to, right?

[smoky rapids]

no it can be any villagers with anyone. It's just different with npc like tom nook or CJ, they get to chose if they want one want who

[analog juniper]

Ah, so the roommates choose who'd they like to be with? Alrighty, makes sense

Didn't wanna make it easy for people smh

[smoky rapids]

only NPC choose, villagers can room with any other villagers

for example CJ will only room with Flick, Timmy with Tommy etc

but Bob can room with any villagers, be it Ike, Raymond, Beardo, Eloise

[analog juniper]

OOHHA
Okay, I did not know NPCs can be on HHP wild
Do you just find them at random like the villagers?

[smoky rapids]

No with amiibos only

[analog juniper]

Gotcha, I don't have amiibos, sadly, but ty for the information!
I might get in even more villagers I like into HHP with this then :)

Oh, a few more questions:
What does it take to upgrade Nook's Cranny?

[smoky rapids]

Just so we're clear you can get all villagers on the island, so you will get the ones you like for sure

[smoky rapids]

200k in trades (sold and bought) and 30 days after construction

[analog juniper]

All Villagers that aren't on your main island can be in HHP?

I keep thinking there's restrictions because of the main island

[smoky rapids]

No there is not

You can have all 400+ villagers on hhp island

[analog juniper]

Well sh i t
Thank you holy fuck
I'm gonna balling

Do you by chance also know ehen you get Nook Shopping on the phone? Tired of going to the Resident services

[smoky rapids]

Does someone know if I need the Happy Home Paradise DLC to use Niko's DIYs? I got the DIYs from someone else and learned them but I don't see them anywhere when crafting :c

[sharp crystal]

Those DIYs are not normally obtainable via cards - so are hacked in.

You should not expect them to work as intended.

[candid blaze]

Oh I didn't know those are hacked! Thank you, that makes sense now

[brittle basin]

yo. i heard that weeds intentionally planted don't count against island ratings. what if that weed grows? i planted one on the BEACH that is now two. 😐

[sharp crystal]

weeds intentionally planted don't count against island ratings
This is false.

But weeds do not particularly affect island rating

[brittle basin]

oh, my!

but also, whew. 🙂

[analog juniper]

How many weeds does it take to even mess with your island

[livid trail]

they don't mess anything. You can have 5 stars with a ton of weeds

[analog juniper]

Huh, crazy
Tyyy

[unique raven]

ah thanks!

[granite agate]

Farmed a heavy meteor shower last night and made 200+ wishes. Woke up this morning and had only 7 fragments on my island, but I read somewhere you got 1 for every 5 wishes made. Will they keep showing up throughout the span of the week or was there only a limit of 7 fragments you can get?

[livid trail]

you can get max 20 fragments and they should keep spawning during the day

[analog juniper]

If a villager is in HHP, you can't get them on your island and vise versa, right? Or does it not matter?

[livid trail]

it doesn't matter, they are unrelated

And now I’m not sure when she will be back

[plucky lance]

Sorry was this an indirect way of asking when she’d return? Or did you just wanna vent /gen

if you are asking when she will back then you just have to be patient and she'll come randomly during the week

What’s decides if an item is (not) for sale?

Also, is there a way to track when Celeste will visit my island?

[high arch]

I’ve got a small problem for some reason when I’m trying to move my villager houses I can’t move 2 of them. Is there any reason for it ?

[glass bobcat]

1. Aside from seasonal items, the items that appear in your shop are random for the most part.

2. Celeste will only appear on nights with a meteor shower (these can be light or heavy, so they’re not always announced by Isabelle). If you have multiple showers in a week, she picks only one of them to visit. If she is visiting for the night, she’ll be there from 7pm-4am

[glass bobcat]

Have you spoken to those 2 villagers?

[wicked violet]

how can you get a bridge for my world?

[glass bobcat]

Have you built your first bridge yet?

[wicked violet]

no 😭

[glass bobcat]

If not, then you’ll have to wait til you reach that point in the game, as the first bridge is part of a quest from Tom Nook. He’ll mention it once you progress a bit further (after your 5th villager moves in and your resident services is upgraded). After that one, you’ll have an option in resident services to purchase more if you want!

[wicked violet]

ahhh ok

[granite agate]

Meteor shower happened on a Sunday. Will she not come if KK is there?

what wallpaper and chair is this

[midnight grove]

I don't play super often, so I don't have the best idea of what is available.

My Dad passed away last year, and like my grandfather, I'm building a little memorial in Animal Crossing for him.

Are there any motorcycle helmets or figurines I can try and farm for? Maybe motorcycle jackets? What are some items that come to mind?

My grandfather's area has a firefighter helmet, his concrete stamp (that someone in here custom made for me!), And red-white-blue flowers.

My Dad's place so far just has black and red flowers.

How often does Leif come, and what chance is there to get vegetables

Or bamboo

[gilded kettle]

can you get a camper to live on your island ?? if you dont have any open spaces or just in general

[fossil cove]

Yeah you can you just have to keep talking to them and then eventually they'll be like "oh I don't know if I want to move in" and then you got to play a game with them to get them to move in and you just keep playing till you win and then they'll go up to residence services and they'll ask one of your other villagers to move out but they'll tell you which villager is willing to move out and you can either be "like yeah I'm okay with them moving out" or you can tell the camper "no" and the camper would just be like "okay" and then they'll leave

[shut steeple]

You can only get bamboo from other players or from mystery bamboo islands. Leif doesn't sell them

[hazy canopy]

If it's the 6th villager, you have to move him in by putting down a plot. If you have less than 10 plots, the camper tells you to put down a plot. If you have 10 villagers, the camper can randomly kick out a villager if you want them to, unless the camper is an amiibo bc amiibos let you choose who to kick out. A camper is will never be locked out of moving to your island but sometimes you have to talk to them so much bc they keep refusing. You can also affect who the camper chooses randomly if they choose a name you don't want to move & you immediately close the game

[solar coral]

What’s the best way to get items in ACNH? I go to Treasure Islands and Yard Sales but the constant people coming and leaving is a pain. Then there is trading for the items but that’s so time consuming when I have a wishlist of over 50. Maybe a way to unlock all the in game items on Nook Shopping to be ordered and delivered?

[smoky rapids]

Cataloging or hhp, but it takes as long as the rest if you don't have time for treasure islands tbh

[solar coral]

Can you explain what HHP does and what cataloging is? I have HHP but how would you get specific items from there?

[smoky rapids]

Cataloging is picking up and putting back an item to have it available to buy in nook's cranny
HHP is the dlc, you unlock in your hhp catalogue items every time you complete a house. So you get items a lot faster basically, but if you think treasure islands take too long, there is no shorter way

[solar coral]

Tysm!!

[near jetty]

Might be the wrong place for this, but I had a gardening breeding question...

As far as I am aware, if you're doing 2+1 testing for purple roses, you can only get yellow (good) or white (bad) children..but today I got a red child o_O I did a cursory check on gardenscience.ac but couldn't find a combination that this matches with...

Anyone know what might have happened here?

[smoky rapids]

https://gardenscience.ac/?breeder=is4VkSo=#breeder

Definitly possible I think one or both your parents have the wrong genes

If it's this particular pair keeping the orange might be a good idea if you are going for blue but alas no was to really be sure unless you so lots of testing

[smoky rapids]

Also for future reference your breeding layout is the cause of your problem, if you test you can't have 3 flowers, a pair is enough and you'd be sure not to get clones

[near jetty]

Ah this actually makes sense, I did have a purple I was unsure about... Thanks!

[near jetty]

I thought you could do it in this fashion because if a breed chance was to occur, it would 100% be between a yellow and a purple - it's just an extra chance for that to occur with the extra yellow?

And with the 1 free slot there wouldn't be the opportunity to clone

[smoky rapids]

What would happen if the pair breed, the next day you have a flower, the flower will be a clone, because the original pair is locked the following day, so the yellow in this cas is free to clone whoever it likes

For testing and breeding in general you want pairs no odd numbers of flowers together

Like a line a 4 would bring the same problem, but a diamond shape would not, only one partner available at all times, at if the partner is taken there is another free one next to it

[near jetty]

I don't remember seeing anything about a breed lock out rule, and I'm pretty sure I've seen multiple days of white spawns, which cannot be the result of a clone 🤔

Ah! Yes so this is talking about same day breeding. Because it's a line of 3, the first pair would breed and the 3rd would clone. But because of the stone border, there isn't anywhere for that 3rd item to clone, therefore it doesn't do anything

[plush dune]

You could try treasure islands I’ve found some on twitch. I just take a few bags at a time do what I need to do and go get more when I’m running low

[tribal carbon]

Treasure islands? I didn’t even know that was a thing. I can look on twitch?

I got like 10k bells atm

[plucky lance]

.t bells ⬇️

[rain crown]

How to MAKE BELLS, the SIMPLE Way:

1. Play the stalk market: buy turnips at a low price and sell them high.
2. Dive and catch sea creatures to sell back to Nook's Cranny.
3. Grow stuff (fruits, flowers, pumpkins, etc) and sell to Nook's Cranny.
4. If you have NSO (Nintendo Switch Online), trade with other players by visiting the trade channels in this server and seeing where to sell your services or goods!

[tribal carbon]

Was moreso looking for methods, but thanks

[plucky lance]

This channel is mostly for questions about mechanics, and most treasure islands are hacked anyway so please take discussion about them to DMs /nm

[plucky lance]

But the nookbot command has methods? /gen

[plush dune]

I apologize & will do

[tranquil hill]

Hello, I just want to double make sure. The only way to get Raymond is by using the tickets to islands, right? No way in having him as a visitor?

[plucky lance]

If you mean campsite villager he can still show up there

[tranquil hill]

Okay thank you very much

[warped zephyr]

Any ideas how I can quickly increase my island rating. I’m on 1 star. And whatever I do doesn’t increase it 😮

[rain crown]

•• Island Rating ••
• You unlock K.K. Slider concerts and the Island Designer app (terraforming) once you achieve your first 3-star rating.
• You obtain the Golden Watering Can DIY once you achieve your first 5-star rating. Also, lilies-of-the-valley can spawn as long as your island keeps its 5-star rating!

•• How do I get a 3- or 5-star rating? ••
• The basic idea is to fill your island with plants and furniture, as Isabelle usually suggests. So if she says to add flowers, do it - or at least, wait for them to be fully bloomed (to get the max points from them) ; Same thing if she hints at adding furniture.

[warped zephyr]

I’ve planted flowers. She says to add furniture I’ve done that too

[plucky lance]

You need at least 8 villagers in order to get from one to two stars

[warped zephyr]

Ooo damn okay. I’ve only got 6😖

[warped zephyr]

Any idea from 2-3 stars

[plucky lance]

Just follow Isabelle’s advice

[warped zephyr]

My camp site is empty how do I get more villagers do I go to mystery islands

[plucky lance]

Yes. Or you can test the randomness of autofill if you’d like. Just make sure you’ve placed down an empty unsold plot from Tom first.

[warped zephyr]

Already done hahah but no one’s moving in😖

[tranquil hill]

How many days does it take for the campsite villager to show up?

[warped zephyr]

Once I placed it and the next day it was built I had a camper moved in already

[plucky lance]

Ahh not early in the game, way later

[plucky lance]

It maxes to a 20% chance every 6 days after the last one shows up

[tranquil hill]

Thank you for sharing this

[tranquil hill]

Okay got it, thank you very much

[plucky lance]

Oh yeah. Forgot it was there too. Oops

That was mostly for Megs but glad it worked out lol

[bitter kettle]

Yo can someone help me I just started

I get so far then feel like I’m stuck and can’t progress😖 I need this for my last stage of the kk

It’s a marathon, not a sprint. So it’s ok to go at your own pace! Also please keep non-question posts to #acnh-chat⛱️ or #general

[warped zephyr]

So what’s my best chance for visitors? Going to islands

[tranquil hill]

I'd like to understand more on the concept of dependent on personalities, does this mean if I were to have smug personality villagers, then the chances of getting a smug personality villager to visit are low to none?

[glass bobcat]

If you don't have at least one of each personality type, then yes there is a higher chance of not seeing the personalities you do have (such as smug)

[tranquil hill]

Oh boy, I'm guessing it'll be very difficult since I have 3 smug villagers

[cedar grotto]

i have mitzi in my campsite rn and rly want her to move in, ive played her game w her to get items 3 times already and have been talking to her for like 20 min, shes gone through all her dialogue options at least a dozen times, but still wont mention moving in? is this normal and is there smth i can do to speed the process up?

[tranquil hill]

I've seen someone who tried leaving and coming back in before, I'm unsure if this helps in any way but she should be able to ask eventually

[cedar grotto]

okay, thank you!

[young salmon]

If I move out a villager by time traveling, can I time travel back to a campsite villager so they can move in?

[reef wagon]

I don’t think so but you can try

[young salmon]

I'm going to try and see, because I was hunting for Marina yesterday and look who shows up. Smh.

[plucky lance]

If you found Marina at your campsite in the middle of the process and you TT out of that day she’ll be gone sadly

[young salmon]

Really? That's unfortunate

I got her to move in another way! I got really lucky and lucky wanted to move. Perfect!

[quaint forge]

hi my brother & i share a switch! and i was wondering if the hhp buildings & facilities are shared too! if he decorates for instance the school, can i decorate the school too but from scratch from my account or will his building show up? thank you

[plucky lance]

I believe DLC progress is separate. I remember playing through the storyline multiple times on the same switch once so that all my characters could use pillars in their house on the island

[quaint forge]

thank you!!

[zenith gulch]

I accidentally buried 99,000 bells in a money tree when trying to take out 10,000 yesterday- is there a chance I can make a profit at all?

[dense gyro]

You have a 30% chance to get 3x what you planted and a 70% chance to get 30k. Source: nookipedia (can't post links)

If you are in the endgame, 99k isn't a big loss

[zenith gulch]

Thank you!

[errant skiff]

Am I able to get all veggies from KAPPN islands, and what all different veggies are there

[plucky lance]

I think Kapp’n only has them one at a time. But there’s tomatoes, potatoes, sugar cane, wheat, and carrots

[plush dune]

How do I get a villager to move out ?

[rain crown]

•• How to Move Out Villagers ••
• Read Yue's Comprehensive Move-Out Handbook https://yuexr.github.io/acnh/moveout to understand how the thought bubble move-out process works.

https://yuexr.github.io/img/yuettmethod.png

[errant skiff]

I know it's only one at a time, ok so I'm just missing tomatoes, and carrots, I'll hopefully get them eventually

How long does it take for flowers to clone themselves, if I water everyday

And there's nothing around them

[rain crown]

⭐ •• Watering Bonus •• ⭐
• Visitors from other islands can apply a bonus to your flower production!
• ❗ Rain, villagers, or other residents on your island won't add any bonus!
https://yuexr.github.io/img/watering.png

[plucky lance]

The metaphorical “dice” to test the odds re-rolls every day. But if you’re the only one watering odds are super low

See above for how to boost chances

[errant skiff]

So I just need to water it more often? Do I count as multiple visitors?

What fish go in here?

[kind nymph]

No, any watering you do only has a 5% production chance. You need visitors from other islands to increase the chance

To your second question: that tank is for the deep water fish like the football fish, coelacanth, and oarfish

[leaden laurel]

Oarfish, football fish, barreleye, colecanth and the chambered nautical shell thing

[midnight light]

if i talk to a villager that wants to moveout, but i close the game without saying anything, does that count as saying no

[livid trail]

No

[pale otter]

sorry if this is dumb but how do you find more flowers aside from going to other islands? is there a vendor?

[livid trail]

Leif and Nooks cranny will sell occasionally flower seeds other than your native flower

[silk knot]

Are there any secrets

[leaden laurel]

This is for asking about the game itself, I recommend going to #general

[leaden laurel]

I'm not sure what you mean by secrets, but pretty much the entirety of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is discoverable if you try hard enough

[solemn goblet]

Guys, what do you do when the person giving away isn’t replying and the thing is about to reroll?

[hazy canopy]

[lapis terrace]

[warped hazel]

Any tips for catching golden trout?

[errant skiff]

[plucky lance]

Follow’s Isabelle’s advice /npa

[plucky lance]

https://catalogue.ac/i/4193

Just make sure you’re following the above

[keen jasper]

if i kicked out a villager september 10th or smth and then traveled back to augst 5th, is my 15 day cooldown over?

[hazy canopy]

No

[keen jasper]

ok ty

How to I check my dodo code?

[analog juniper]

So, for the Beautiful Island Ordinance, right
When it says no cockroaches will appear, does that mean just the ones that appear in your home when you don't play for a while?

[jagged edge]

How do I get Isabelle to tell me my island rating? Every time I talk to her it’s either change the island flag/tune or discuss a resident 😦

[errant skiff]

It should be an option, it should say check island evals

[jagged edge]

☹️

[errant skiff]

There should be a list before that, what does she say as soon as you talk to her

[plucky lance]

You need to set one up through the airport yourself

[rain crown]

•• How to set up a DODO Code ••
• Speak to Orville at your island's Airport
• Tell him that you want visitors on your island, via Local Play or Online Play
• You must have a Nintendo Switch Online subscription in order to use the Online Play option
• Select Invite via Dodo Code
• Proceed through the remainder of the choices
• Orville will present your Dodo code. Give this code to those you want to visit your island
• NOTE: This code is only valid for this session. You will need to follow this same process to generate a new code for subsequent sessions

[plucky lance]

I don’t think the option comes until after your first campsite villager moves in @errant skiff

[plucky lance]

I believe so. The only other cockroaches in the game are toy ones that are a furniture item

[jagged edge]

Gotcha! Thank you so much! I was super confused for a bit

[analog juniper]

Gotcha
For some reason I included some of the bugs that swim above water

[plucky lance]

Nah those are other bugs

[hasty dagger]

How do I get cardboard boxes with the fruit items on it

[hazy canopy]

It's a cardboard box variation, sometimes it shows up in Nook's & Cyrus can customize it

[errant skiff]

I've had the same island (vines and moss) three times in a row, how do I get a different one

Can you make your two original villagers move out

[solar coral]

Yes but you have to wait until you get more villagers to move in

[errant skiff]

I have a full 10 villagers

[vagrant sphinx]

Then yup, it's possible for them to move out !

[errant skiff]

Will time hoping mess up my switch or island in any way, and can I move it back to the normal date at the end of it

[hasty dagger]

Ahh okay, thanks! I’ll keep an eye out in Nook’s Cranny

[rain crown]

Time traveling does not reverse / rewind progress. You still keep all the progress, items, etc. that you've completed / acquired even if you time travel backwards.

[elfin harness]

i just read the move out guide, is it true that the last villager to move in won’t ask to move out?

[tender vector]

should I gift my villagers unassessed fossils or assessed fossils to get pictures faster?

[leaden laurel]

I would say assessed fossils, just make sure they won't be able to fit in the house otherwise your poor villagers houses are going to be a whole museum on it's own

[leaden laurel]

On their own, unfortunately yes. But you can kick them out using an amiibo/campsite villager to do so

[leaden laurel]

The only thing it will really do is spawn more weeds, but it depends on how far forward you are going. It could mess up your hair (which is easy to get back to normal, as it fixes on its own), and possibly some of your relationships with your villagers. Nothing too crazy though.

[leaden laurel]

Do you mean on a Kapp'ns island? Vines and moss don't spawn on regular mystery islands. And Kapp'ns islands are normally like that, it's rare to find one in a different season, or with different materials like star-rocks

[errant skiff]

I'm following the move out thing, how many days (after the month) changing does it take for the target to move out

[errant skiff]

This has taken me close to an hour and she still doesn't want to move out

I've followed the chart

[plucky lance]

It’s all luck in the end. Our method just maxes out the chances

[hazy canopy]

The guide is just a way to remove most variables that affect asking to move out. Holding a relocation kit, telling another villager no, the amount of targets you wanna move out, etc can take 10 minutes or 10 hours. If you only have 1 target you are aiming to move out, the chances are just going to be much lower than having 3 or 5 targets you wanna move out. One thing I recommend is skipping KK days since villagers don't think on those days

[hazy canopy]

Assessed fossils, even the cheapest one, sells for at least 1000 bells so it's over the 750 bells threshold. Unassessed fossils only sell for 100 bells so you would only get 1 Friendship point gifting them

[leaden laurel]

2 to 3 days, the day you asked them to move out, and the next day while they are in boxes. The third day is when there is an empty plost

[rapid sluice]

Hey everyone! I have a question:

if I only put an item in my pockets for a few seconds but do not place it or bring it to my island, will it be added to the Nook Shopping catologue? Thanks! ^^

[stable matrix]

hi guys, does anyone have the truck item? im willing to pay bells for it

[stable matrix]

I think so

I don’t understand step 2 for that I understand until after the highlited yellow bit

[leaden laurel]

[dark heron]

[errant skiff]

The art expert is redd, is it just an easier way to get art?

[leaden laurel]

It's just easier to not have to wait for him to show up occasionally once a week.
So, yes

[plucky lance]

Only two pieces show up a week though. It refreshes every Monday

So pick your poison xD /lh

[errant skiff]

Will the peices be authentic, or do I have to check them too

[plucky lance]

You’d have to check iirc

[errant skiff]

What does Leif sell there

[plucky lance]

Stuff that you’d expect him to sell /npa

Crop/shrub starts, flower seeds

[errant skiff]

What kind of crops and flowers

[plucky lance]

Depends

Not the same for everyone

Again stock refreshes every Monday

It helps expand the little variety within nooks though, fwiw
