tropic hornet
#

gotta take the bridge out then build a new one, sadly lol

#

they need to update that

woven drift
#

oof nintendo

#

yea ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

next cypress
#

Hm maybe just like some chairs and benches facing each other, set out some tables with a tea set or books/magazines, make it a little sitting area

heavy summit
#

Relocating ur house is cheaper than destroying bridges

#

I think its like 30k x 2

dusty violet
heavy summit
#

U gotta move ur house far away then place it back in cause u cant do a rope setup on top of ur house i think

woven drift
#

@dusty violet i would place the darker one in the middle

#

itโ€™s dark so i canโ€™t tell but will the stone path thingy look off?:/ the shades of the stones

smoky cove
#

Is there an app for maps?

#

For a blank one I mean. Sorry.

@chaiinchomp#0871 I was thinking of putting this corner sofa, but is there another sofa that's complementary to it?

strange verge
#

Made a bug report for ACNH this morning, used the opportunity to say what we were all thinking

dusty violet
#

Thank you! @woven drift and if you mean the stone at the top of the incline? It doesnโ€™t look off to me :0

woven drift
#

@dusty violet okay good i will just place it ๐Ÿ™๐Ÿผ ty too

#

@strange verge yayy i hope they agree

#

@smoky cove I just know a web version but it works on phone too

smoky cove
#

@woven drift that works! What's it called pls?

unborn blade
#

honestly if they let me move the town hall, I don't care anymore, I will just center it but my design won't change

woven drift
#

happy island designer @smoky cove

smoky cove
#

@woven drift tyvm! I'm going to look at that ^^

youโ€™re welcome ๐Ÿ™‚ @smoky cove

I wish trees ignored half-cliff tiles

#

is doing something like this too symmetrical? im resetting for a new map but donโ€™t know what to do

slate hinge
#

Hello everyone I need some creative minds Iโ€™m trying to make a Disneyland layout anyone down to help me figure out a layout ?

stray nimbus
#

woah i think that's really pretty tho @haughty grail

tropic hornet
#

I like symmetrical for the most part

next cypress
#

It really depends on your preferences, personally I'm not a fan of symmetrical islands but a lot of people like the look

gentle saffron
#

There's not much elevated water on that design so catching some fish would be difficult

#

No ponds either

autumn ivy
#

does anyone have a southern hemishpere map i can fish on?

next cypress
#

I think those blue leaf-shaped things to the left and right of the campsite are supposed to be ponds

inner fiber
#

@slate hinge i took inspiration from disneyland, kinda made my plaza the same as the hub and made everything go out from there with straight paths

tropic hornet
#

misplaced my neighbors by literally one block rip lol

gentle saffron
#

Oh the campsite at the north has them actually

haughty grail
#

tbh i just really really want a town center. like a plaza. but donโ€™t know how

hybrid nest
#

Looking for suggestions for my WIP map? Like where to put museum, campsite and my house (the symmetry kinda just happened, all suggestions welcome ๐Ÿ™)

gentle saffron
#

I really struggle to add ponds. I had just about finished my layout and realized I had no elevated water or ponds so I tore the whole thing apart and started over on the weekend

slate hinge
#

@inner fiber by any chance you think I can take a look ?

inner fiber
#

@slate hinge sure i donโ€™t mind! gimme like 15 minutes and i can open up my gates with a dodo code?

flat flame
#

A bridge is 6 wide? This upsets me

slate hinge
#

@inner fiber really appreciate it

gentle saffron
#

Bridges are adjustable I think

#

I have a bridge across a 3 wide river and another across a 5 wide river

pulsar ivy
chilly kettle
flat flame
#

Bridges are adjustable I think
@gentle saffron I mean the other side, the footpath side

chilly kettle
#

And that picnic spot looks real pretty Emily

dreamy fox
gentle saffron
#

Pretty sure a horizontal or vertical bridge is 4 wide along the river bank

#

Those are wooden stakes and not a fence

flat flame
#

Ah yeah 4

#

Still doesn't match the museum entrance ๐Ÿ˜ฉ

visual hamlet
#

@hybrid nest look really cool. depends really want you want for the house. dominate everything, or try to blend in with the rest of villagers ? For campsite, I like myself either a spot near the beach (it's an island after all) or up hills (like hiking to camp there). Not sure for museum as I don't know myself ๐Ÿ˜„

dreamy fox
#

@gentle saffron but they can be different colors?

next cypress
#

@dreamy fox yep they are customizable, I think there's a dark wood one, a birch wood, and a white painted wood if I remember correctly

dreamy fox
#

Thank you โค๏ธ๐Ÿฅบ

#

Has anyone made any type of medieval town yet?

trying to figure a way to make big medieval walls. so far ive got jailbars next to raise ground stone walls ontop of raised ground/ raised ground + stone walls 1 block apart

dreamy fox

ahah, tbh they give you so many resources for it

tropic hornet

mine is a mix of Japanese / Medieval weird lol

olive crag

I think it was sarcasm lol, a lot@of people@have japanese towns

visual hamlet
#

looks awesome! @dreamy fox

hybrid nest
#

@visual hamlet Aah thanks for the ideas! I might try building my house up on a mini mountain in front of the secret beach with waterfalls and such ๐Ÿค”

shy mango

#

@tropic hornet id love to see!

#

no pressure tho B)

Anyone else a little tired of seeing Japanese inspired towns? ๐Ÿ˜• I wanna see a Western town, Greek town, something new
@slow dagger they dont really have thing furniture like that in game

slow dagger
#

Imma make a Greek town tho, watch

river crane
#

Does anyone know how to make it jumpable from one cliff to the next

While being able to run/jump across on the levels below

queen nexus
#

Really hoping they add more

hybrid nest
#

Currently its bamboo and cherry blossom events, so people are getting inspired

queen nexus
#

i want to make a fairytale town

slow dagger
#

@hybrid nest oh yea true!

tropic hornet
#

im sure they will

visual hamlet
#

for now it's quite limited, a lot of japan oriented things, might change with some updates

shy mango
#

Wokring on a medieval town

slow dagger
#

@queen nexus ๐Ÿ‘€ do et

tropic hornet
#

especially with the response this game has gotten

visual hamlet
#

i wanted a redneck island at first

queen nexus
#

i like the idea of street roads but too many ppl doing it

shy mango
#

Also do you guys think they will ever fix the hitboxes? For example foutains.... ๐Ÿ˜ฌ

novel pebble
#

@slow dagger Im going for a rustic/farmer town lmao

queen nexus
#

hitboxes? this an FPS now

#

animal crossing survival island

slow dagger
#

Oh okay so y'all are doing things other than Japanese towns lol, dope - can't wait to see them

shy mango
#

The fountains are round, yet they collide like a daAng square

visual hamlet
#

i might try to recreate my neighborhood, going for the little french town island isathink

queen nexus
#

idk what i'm doing tbh i suck at this

covert orbit
#

Not just the bamboo and cherry-blossom, a large chunk of the furnitures are Japanese, including the modern appliances and public works. The vending machines are Japanese designs, even the telephone pole has Japanese posters on them

novel pebble
#

oooo

#

slow dagger
#

Oh word

visual hamlet
#

just wish you could terraform quicker with 2-3 blocks at a time

novel pebble
#

I got so pissed when I found out that cornfield wasnt in this game

slow dagger
#

@visual hamlet ikr

novel pebble
#

Imma riot

shy mango
#

Dang thats alota japanese ngl

novel pebble
#

I want my cornfield

slow dagger
#

I wanna be able to buy a bulldozer and break like 4 blocks at once

next cypress
#

I tried to stay away from japanese style for the most part, going for more of a classic american style seaside town with a boardwalk and stuff

novel pebble
#

Oh fun!

visual hamlet
#

let my charge my super shovel attack to take out cliffs & water quicker

shy mango
#

Yesssss i love it

10/10 would use eyes to see again

noice

gentle saffron
#

I made an area of my island bamboo grove themed but that's because the villagers that live there are Kabuki and Genji

shy mango
#

I love it!!

tropic hornet
#

that's cute

shy mango
#

it was worthit we said

twilit gull
#

thx. i make my whole logo. making a circle is such a horror

shy mango
#

I bet

twilit gull
#

and 8x i terraform water, 2x i transform it accidentally back to land lol

shy mango
#

For sure

gentle saffron
#

I find water so much easier to mess up than cliffs too

twilit gull
#

i do cliffs when i am done with the logo. currently my island is completly flat ^^

next cypress
#

terraforming and outdoor decorating would be sooo much better if you could do it top-down style like how you decorate inside your house

#

just trying to maneuver your character in place is so hard sometimes

queen nexus
#

it would be better if the game let you terraform over trees and plants

#

with the option to send them to the trash bin

shy mango
#

Thatd be great

gentle saffron
#

You can do it over weeds and holes already

#

So the technology is there

inner fiber
#

@slate hinge dodo code is F60JB

sour pebble
#

This... took way too long for how little is done.

slender charm
#

Anyone have a good looking market place? With the nook shop and the able sisters shop. Iโ€™m looking for inspo, preferably not Japanese themed... Iโ€™ve seen too many.

gentle saffron
#

It looks nice but can't really see much in the clip

sour pebble
#

You can't see much because that's all there is. xD

#

I tore down all of what I previously had and started from scratch. It was originally a Japanese themed island.

wind wind
#

Starting from scratch feels so difficult in this game

fathom sonnet
#

Hitting a wall while building feels shit

sour pebble
#

Ohyeh, especially when you've placed all your houses and stuff in awkward places. ;;

wind wind
#

Yeah, and I have that same map type, it's hard to work with tbh

flat flame
sour pebble
#

You could always do hopping rocks.

flat flame
#

I did not realise they were 4 wide

wind wind
#

Honestly, I think I bridge down the middle would look good

fathom sonnet
#

Yea thats so annoying

next cypress
#

you could also spread it out just a tiny bit more, I'm pretty sure a space of 3 tiles between bridges is fine. I know for sure it works for inclines so I think for bridges too

sour pebble
#

That's the thing, @wind wind It can't go down the middle, it'd be off center. The museum is 7 wide and the bridge is 4 wide.

wind wind
#

Ohh. Ew.

#

Ew meaning that the bridge can never be centered

next cypress
#

yeah that's why you see so many people doing dual bridges/inclines for their museums

shy mango
#

Any ideas to make a big medieval wall?

flat flame
#

I might just do a diagonal bridge somewhere

sour pebble
#

Sadly there is nothing really medieval looking.

vital knot
#

what are the bridge and incline limits?

flat flame
#

I didn't really want to waste two bridges on the museum

sour pebble
fierce pivot
#

8 is the limit

shy mango
#

Darn

vital knot
#

8 in total or each?

fierce pivot
#

each

sour pebble
#

8 each.

next cypress
#

Yeah I guess you could do like, two tiers of cliffs and put the iron/stone fences along the ledges, to make it look like a wall

fathom sonnet
#

I dont get how to make diagonal bridges

vital knot
#

ah nice, thanks

sour pebble
#

It's a bit finnicky to do diagonal bridges.

#

Basically you need a straight diagonal line on either side is what I find.

flat flame
#

Yeah

wind wind
#

I wouldnโ€™t recommend diagonal bridges at all

#

Paths just donโ€™t work well with them

sour pebble
#

That's also a good point.

flat flame
#

That is true

wind wind
#

Those bridges are why I plan on restarting my whole island

burnt wing
#

I'm going (to attempt) a Demacian aesthetic for my town, does anyone know of any marble like custom paths that people have created?

tame pilot
#

@shy mango You could do a line of second tier ground with the stone and iron fencing along the top

burnt wing
#

Incline limit is 8 right? what about bridge limit?

#

8 each, nvm scrolled up

#

I know how to read, totally, yep yep

shy mango
#

Thanks middle tone! Ive tried second tier with iron bars and some stone walls but ill try that

flat flame
#

Are inclines 4 wide too?

versed depot
#

2x4

flat flame
#

Still off centre. Jeez

Can you make Happy Island Designer to default as your island's layout?

Discord outages every 5 minutes for anyone else?

tropic hornet

just on my phone but on pc its fine

gentle saffron
#

At work so I only have my phone

tropic hornet
#

yeah it might cut out on your phone cause it can only handle so much "capacity"

hushed pier
#

Same thing happening to me^

unborn blade
#

best friends can't help you terraform right?

gentle saffron
#

Right

tropic hornet
#

I don't think so?

gentle saffron
#

They can help by using a shovel to indicate things though. But they can't drop patterns

tropic hornet
#

Oh nvm then I just haven't tried

gentle saffron
#

I helped a friend with her river by using the shovel to kind of show her how to do the riverbend

unborn blade
#

Can you use the Island Designer app with people visiting though?

gentle saffron
#

No

#

You can't even place furniture outside with a visitor

wind wind
gentle saffron
#

What's wrong with it?

wind wind
#

Wow, that actually sent. This server is broken on Mobile

#

Feels like thereโ€™s not much I can do anymore,

hushed pier
#

Can someone please please help me design my island, I want to make a small neighborhood for all the houses. Feel free to DM me to visit

wind wind
#

And I was constantly running into issues with the diagonal bridges

#

Also, thereโ€™s no space near the houses, and such

gentle saffron
#

Diagonal bridges are awful since you can't even place paths diagonally

hushed pier

#

What do you guys think of my island? I hate that the airport isn't lined up with the town hall, would rather it be way off to the left/right. I might put the museum or my home up top along with the campsite, any ideas to deal with airport that is like 5 blocks from lining up with the town hall? Will post pictures of my entrance in a moment.

gilded zealot
#

@wind wind I have a similar island, clapped islands mann ):

gentle saffron
#

With that layout if you wanted to start over your houses are all in one place so just start at the north and work down

gilded zealot
#

I wish we could move resident services

#

makes no sense as to why we can't

gentle saffron
#

I've never seen resident services so far north wow

unborn blade
#

nook doesn't want to move

hexed goblet
#

I really wanted to put houses behind resident services

wind wind
#

Hmm. What if I got rid of the river on the left and used the left side of the map for housing? (As an alternate solution to starting over)

hexed goblet
#

but I can't, contemplating going to a new town

rancid lance
wintry junco
#

@hexed goblet that resident services looks perfectly aligned with the entrance to the airport

visual hamlet
#

it looks 1 square off

#

have the same thing

tropic hornet
#

yeah I messed up two of my neighbor placements

gentle saffron
#

1 or 2 off, but that's fine because if you walk straight north on a Friday the chairs from KK aren't gonna be blocking uou

tropic hornet
#

they're one square off

woven drift
#

hey guys whats the difference between a pond and a river, topographically speaking

#

is it size or length or something?

next cypress
#

If your town hall is a little off just don't make your path straight from airport to plaza. Make a little winding path through some trees or gardens or something

wintry junco
#

Ok never mind I zoomed in yea it's a little off

tropic hornet
#

river connects to one of the oceans

gentle saffron
#

Ponds have still water. No waterfall connected and they aren't long and thin

#

So if you try to make a moat it will turn into a river even if it doesn't connect to anything

hexed goblet
tropic hornet
#

nvm im dumb dont listen to me

wintry junco
#

@woven drift pond is an enclosed space of water, rivers are streams of water that connect to ponds/lakes/oceans

hexed goblet
#

oh

#

it didnt load

gentle saffron
#

Ponds can't connect to waterfalls or the ocean and probably have a maximum amount of tiles allowed

hexed goblet
#

ooo there it goes

wind wind
#

Btw, do you guys use the happy island designer website for planning?

woven drift
#

anyone know what dimension ponds become rivers at?

ashen cradle
#

did my msg send

visual hamlet
#

did anyone else have a storm of cherry blossom today or just me ?

ashen cradle
tropic hornet
#

nope

woven drift
#

yeah i have a 4 x 8 "pond" that is spawning river fish ๐Ÿ˜ฆ

tropic hornet
#

@ashen cradle your trees wont grow

wind wind
#

Feels like thereโ€™s nothing surrounding it

woven drift
#

doesnt connect to river, waterfall, or ocean but still spawns river fish

tropic hornet
#

when they're growing they need two spaces apart

visual hamlet
#

yep

wind wind
#

Yes

#

Same, Arno

tropic hornet
#

all sides but you can plant grown trees

ashen cradle
#

yeh theyve all got 1 space around them

#

seriously?

#

idk where this question would belong to but I think this channel is appropriate as it links to my town theme of asia

#

I know Gladys has it as I've got her in my town

tropic hornet
#

@ashen cradle yes but they're still in the growing phase

#

so you need 2

pekoe has an asian exterior

hexed goblet

Croque has a very similar house to Snake but has a wood door with metal accents and a black terracotta/shingle roof

visual hamlet
#

Is there any way to plan out islands before building them?

@visual hamlet Is there a way for the app to have your default island layout?

#

Does anyone know if fish will spawn in two tile rivers? I want small canals but I still want river fish ;-;

wind wind
#

Hm. Does it do it automatically, or send the map to the dev for him/her to add to the site @stuck crescent ?

#

Oh wait, nvm, I see

stuck crescent
#

i have no idea, it doesnt take much effort to try yourself

wind wind
#

K, I'll tell you guys what happens

visual hamlet
#

that screenshot thing is actually useful damn

stuck crescent

yeah i had already mapped out my map manually before i saw that, woops

#

i think it just got added lol don't remember seeing it 2 days ago

nocturne mulch

it's definitely new, i just refreshed my page which has been open for a couple days and it showed up in the menu

Still hard to work with, though

there is no default map

ok one of the four you pick when you start the game. not one that is custom design yourself layout.

Even still, many aspects of the island, i.e. rock structures, river mouths, etc. Are variable

@faint meteor there are many default maps, you can Google them I think, you were only given four out of the many possible starter maps.

Make my Island beautiful with your amazing designs lol, send me the QR code and ill put it in place of one of these paintings.

The thing about island design that eats at me,

#

there are so, so many possibilities. At times, it's hard to know what I want

#

I don't even know what I want either

burnt minnow
#

same! i've changed my layout so many times now

#

i've made mountains and completely leveled them due to changing my mind so much

#

Do you ever just mess up your island so every time you log in and realize you canโ€™t fix it you cry lmao

#

I dont even know what to do at this point rip

latent breach
#

work on one thing at a time, if you have something in mind for a small part of your island work the hell out of it and worry about the rest of your island after, everything can be changed so there's no need to stress over every minute detail

#

I can't choose between having my villagers in the same area or spread out

#

That's true, ItsDaddyNick. It's so hard when you're doing a complete redesign though

#

But I suppose that logic still works

I really wish the houses were 6 squares instead of 5

Or bridges be 3

I wish that diagonal bridges worked properly

Personally i'm on team #villagerdistancing. but i've seen so many cute residential area on here ! >.<

I donโ€™t mind the bridges being 2 but the whole uneven thing is really messing up my life

I put my villagers in sets of 2

Sets of 2 sounds nice

Does anybody have some nice orchards to show off?

Looking at the flaws in my current map, I really like having a residential area, and then having houses sort off in the distance

I haven't even unlocked terraforming yet and i'm already so stressed about what i'm gonna do when I get it

Yeah technically

Yup ! I've been browsing this channel for hours recently, i'm gathering ideas until i unlock terraforming

#

Same, except I still have no ideas

#

I think it helps to write down everything that you like

spark lintel
#

Anyone got a town they want to give a tour of?

wind wind
#

For example, I like having a house up in the hills on the top right side of the map, that can cascade down into an orchard/flower farm and down into a small village

shell karma
#

Wow Sunlight same ! I love living on top of mountains

#

The problem is I want everything

whole shale
#

mmh, is there maybe a theme you'd like to go for ? (zen, foresty, full coconut island, jurassik park ...)

shell karma
#

A village, an orchard, a hybrid breeding garden, paths, a city

#

And idk if it's possible to have everything cuz when I wander around my island seems small

wind wind
#

I found that zen best fits my house, and a foresty zone surrounding the orchard and shop is really nice

shell karma
#

But maybe because it has a lot of water, gotta remove some of it

#

@grim fossil could you show me how you did those waterfalls at the beginning?

#

someone explained to me how but i was confused

wind wind
#

Yea, water stands in the way of a lot of things. That's why I'm doing it last

I love the fact that you can create a beac with palms outside of the ocean more towards to the center of the map

also uhh
could someone send pics of their villager houses for inspiration?

okies. gimme 5 mins ._.

It's so hard to figure out where to put shops

because those are where you'll be going frequently

you need at least one block around to make a waterfall

Surprisingly,

no matter how far away I place my villagers, they always end up in my front yard

Oh, yeah totally

vast crystal
#

it's annoying tbh

#

I found Chevre behind my house once, lol

gentle saffron
#

The thing that bugs me more is that you can make an area that is unreachable without ladders or the vaulting pole and NPCs will end up there like wisp or CJ

I completely buried Hazel's house in a mountain once. She just occasionally appears in front of my house from time to time

bunny river is planned out now i gotta dig the water
@hard frost how did you plan thatso precisely?

You can't see it very clearly but the cliffs around the back of kabuki's house are only like 4-5 tiles wide and covered in bamboo trees and I found wisp up there

hard frost
#

just counting spaces with the dirt path tool!

sturdy loom
#

can you dig out spaces that have path on it? i might have to try paths.. even tho its still all a pain

gentle saffron
#

Yes you can

#

You can't terraform patterns but you can terraform even if there's a path, hole or weed on the destination tile

sturdy loom
#

oh good. if only nintendo let us paint right on top of the map as if it's paint.net tho..

nimble spoke
gentle saffron
#

I wish patterns on the ground would sound like the terrain below them

If you guys want to hear a fun fact, I believe you can place patterns on top of paths if they have at least one transparent pixel

gentle saffron
#

Yeah you can

timid kernel
#

@hard frost looks cute! i'm doing a similar idea but not a bunny, i'm interested to see how yours turns out as you go along your designing journey ๐Ÿ™‚

wind wind
#

Really? I enjoy hearing the sound of stone when I'm walking over my front yard

gentle saffron
#

Walking on patterns sounds totally different

#

It's a weird dull and muted sound

wind wind
#

Oh, really? Never tried that tbh

#

Hm. Maybe you can try placing the patterns on a path that has a sound that you like?

hard frost
#

yea they donโ€™t make much sound at all

wind wind
#

to give it a more realistic feel

gentle saffron
#

Doesn't work

#

Thats what I was saying though, I wish they adopted the sound of the terrain below them

#

So if I have a pattern that looks like pavement I would put the stone path under it.

wind wind
#

I see your point. I'm surprised we can't do that

#

Finally. I think I may be on to a design I like

I plan on putting those on the outside of the main area

Yea, there will be more rivers in the north that connect my house to the main village and shops

shops will probably be just above the two bridges

And if not there, I'll put them in the bottom right

Hey I have some plans for my Island, I'm just not someone who can add nuance to design to make it feel like space is utilized -- does anyone want to come and flush out the layout to my island with me?

#

I'm gonna be doing a concept based on antii suburban ideals. More in tune with nature and with more space for villager homes... will people think my island is ugly/gross?

if u like it, who cares?

thats true. c:

my island entrance is going to be like that @grem

#

i'm even moving my campsite there

My island entrance is just a gate to keep people from running on my flowers

The only time that your villagers will comment on your town is on the furniture placed.
Like, "This soccer ball is fun to play with!" or "I love this bench, it lets me relax my legs" or "Why did you put a regal bed outside?"

queen nexus
#

what do u mean by anti suburban

#

just like trees everywhere

river ledge
#

suburbia is the concept of neat rows of houses in cul de sacs with little yards. I'm letting them have maybe some fences but other than that it's very full of trees

@young kelp Thank you very much. Just so I have this right, vertically, I should factor 5 blocks "vertically" for each building.

young kelp
#

yup!

#

@median nebula i recommend a lattice wall instead of stone

Awesome, thank you!

#

Do most of you build on all 3 levels of the floor? or do u stick with one level?

#

Also are most of your houses secluded away or do u prefer having them together with the villagers? Right now Im not sure where I should put my main house of if I should just leave it with the villagers

Thanks again

#

You could make it a forest, add both type of trees, varied flowers and weeds

#

With a path through it

viral geyser
#

For town ratings, do dropped items on stalls + tables count as "trash"? Do tree branches also count as "trash"??

thorn herald
#

My upper left area is gonna be a big orchard, but yeah a forest would be cute!!

You can put the wooden swing

Maybe just make it dirt but that looks pretty good by itself

#

Ok Iโ€™ll probably also add fencing

#

Elisha you can also put a big water fountain or the natural pond thing

#

Yeah fencing would help, if you're keeping that tile then maybe try the cobblestone fencing?

Parks, sitting areas, ponds

So I made 7 alt characters to farm for recipes cause Iโ€™m an idiot. But I kinda want to place all their tents and make their houses too. Is that too much? Iโ€™m thinking like a tier system with villagers on the bottom, the alts on the second level and me on the top cause you know Iโ€™m me. Any ideas or think thatโ€™s too much?

hot pond
#

do you have any pics for inspiration?

@somber elm that sounds like a lot of work lmao

#

@silver sorrel hahah I know. I didnโ€™t realize how the alts worked until I sat through KKs concert 8 times ๐Ÿ˜‚

silver sorrel
#

jeez

#

honestly i'd probably delete them unless ur gonna furnish all 8 houses xd

somber elm
#

But itโ€™s actually been pretty good for farming recipes from MiBs and the bunny bottles

silver sorrel
#

wait seriously

#

i don't know how that works

somber elm
#

Hahaha honestly what I was thinking was to maximize the first floor for each and make them all themed

#

Like a restaurant or movie theatre etc

silver sorrel
#

that's probably the best idea

#

cus then the houses become setpieces in your town

somber elm
#

Right? Thatโ€™s what I was thinking. Itโ€™s nice cause right now I have all the alts but havenโ€™t placed a single tent until I know what Iโ€™m doing

silver sorrel
#

if you're thinking about doing that though, probably shouldn't have them all with the other houses

#

make locations out of them
