Is that a craftable moon? It looks amazing, wow

Ah okay, ty

icy rivet
#

Are you able to move your own home?

jovial bramble
#

@icy rivet yep! costs 50k though

icy rivet
#

How do you do it? @jovial bramble

sharp yoke
#

30k for your own, AFAIR

jovial bramble
#

go to tom nook, ask for infastructure, then layout changes

icy rivet
#

I know how to move houses in general, but there is no option to do your own house @jovial bramble

sharp yoke
#

it's under your house... not the town layout stuff

cold bobcat
#

I know how to move houses in general, but there is no option to do your own house @jovial bramble
@icy rivet its in about my home

jovial bramble
#

@sharp yoke lol really? i didn't know that. i assumed they were all the same and i forgot from when i moved my own before

#

oh im stupid lol sorry guys

sharp yoke
#

unless it goes up as your house gets bigger... I moved mine earlier.

icy rivet
#

That makes a lot of sense now, thanks guys!

jovial bramble
#

i feel like everything is gonna look so much worse on my island after cherry blossom season

stiff root
#

Wanted to get those pics before the trees turn ugly again villagercozyburrito

pliant hazel
#

This is mesmerising, it's awesome

jovial bramble
#

@stiff root i love the zen garden and how you added the grooves ; _ ; so cute

stiff root
#

Thanks :3
My only gripe is that it looks a bit flat. Wish there was a way to give it more depth haha

jovial bramble
#

really missing dream towns right now so I could preserve how my town looks with the cherry blossoms forever

calm narwhal
#

Anyone know what flowers go well outside a zen/bamboo garden?

fringe vessel
#

Should i replace the rivers around my villagers houses, and give then yards?

stiff scroll
#

@calm narwhal I feel like hyacinths or mums would fit, but that's my opinion

jovial bramble
#

@fringe vessel no, i would center the land walkway though and curve the corners of the moat

calm narwhal
#

@stiff scroll thanks! :)

jade leaf
#

is 3 wide paths too wide?

pliant hazel
#

I feel like 3 is the perfect sizey but it gets kinda awkward with inclines and bridges

jade leaf
#

okie thanks

fringe vessel
#

Thanks!

woeful root
wind wind
#

Ohh, nice

forest coral
#

Thanks for some inspiration just got terraforming tools and don't know how much water to land I should have

wind wind
#

feels too boring

woven drift
#

I like the cleanliness, gives you plenty of furnishing potential

jade leaf
#

maybe put them on different elevations?

vague vortex
#

id say waterfalls

woven drift
#

Rivers!

wind wind
#

Ohh, I like all of those

vague vortex
woven drift
#

Goodness that's a lot of water

polar salmon
#

Quarantine island

woven drift
#

Seems to he a common theme among finished islands

vague vortex
#

it looks like alot LOL

#

but in game i think its perfect

wind wind
#

The maps in this game do end up looking like a lot most of the time

forest coral
#

Are fruit tree farming useful lategame?

fringe vessel
wind wind
#

but I think that makes it look better

#

Love the use of the hills around the island

#

To be honest, you don't really need bells in endgame Albeano

woven drift
#

So pretty!

wind wind
#

also, the stalk market invalidates other farming methods imo

forest coral
#

How do you guys incorporate elevation into your builds

warm cave
#

do u guys know how much terraforming on the water is considered too much.

polar salmon
#

what's your favorite part about your island? Want to hear some answers for fun. for example I have a little farmer's market that i like

#

no rules to terraforming but make sure you don't make lakes too big if you intend to fish in them, cause you cant reach the middle

#

unless its for cosmetic purposes,

vague vortex
stiff scroll
#

@polar salmon my favorite part is fact that I have no ideas on what to do with my island. Endless possibilities never to be discovered

woven drift
#

@warm cave nothings ever too much in this game. If it feels right, just go ham lol

polar salmon
#

I love the walkway! @vague vortex

vague vortex
#

Thank you!!

#

perfect for my OCD cuz its like right in the middle hehe

polar salmon
#

true I have built many cliffs just to tear them down like do whatever and if not, you can always fix it

#

lol nice, my museum is off center and it bother me

fringe vessel
#

Do you guys have an orchard, or not? I was thinking about it, and u dont even know why i have it

#

Like, i have turnip stuff for bells

next cypress
#

I have a small orchard with just a couple of each tree, in case a friend wants me to trade them some fruit they're missing, or if I wanna craft one of the fruit items or something

#

I don't pick them otherwise though

sharp yoke
#

I like them, it's a classic holdover from pre-turnip days, and tending it is pleasant for me... early on I had nearly 300 trees I think... I had to cut down at least 60 before I had less than 220. and when the cherry blossom event happened my money tree area was the only pink on my island. XD

woven drift
#

just trying to get rid of annalise, hans, gala, and eunice 😭

glossy jewel
#

Your villagers are so cute @woven drift 😭 I'm stuck with uglies

unique creek
stuck parcel
#

@woven drift how do u get rid of them?

patent sky
stuck parcel
#

any good house layout?

#

i want to cramp all my villagers into 1 box, but if i put them too closely i can't really see their front door

woven drift
#

@glossy jewel ahh thank you!! 😭 it took so much work to kick out the ones i didn’t want though LOL

gaunt turtle
#

I finished getting my dreamies owo 😭 4 days of opening up tickets . Don’t buy Raymond just find him

woven drift
#

@stuck parcel i just always ignore the ones i don’t want completely and then with time traveling eventually they ask to move

stuck parcel
#

@gaunt turtle how do u 'BUY' villagers?

woven drift
#

@gaunt turtle that’s what i’m saying!! he’s so expensive but it’s honestly not that hard to find him on the islands

patent sky
#

I know two people that randomly found him in under 10 tickets lol

woven drift
#

i found him in 1 ticket 😭

#

Raymond is overrated don’t @ me

gaunt turtle
#

U find people who have them leaving in boxes already and u have to have a plot open and you come over drop the stuff they want and then invite the character over to your island @stuck parcel ; it took me 7 tickets for Raymond so I think everyone should just try with 70 tickets or so cause 500+ tickets for him isn’t worth it

#

Yeah I don’t like him cause he’s popular I just like him cause he’s grey my favorite color and has glasses :3

stuck parcel
#

so basically if someone has villager moving out, u can try to invite then?

woven drift
#

i love his eyes and glasses! and he looks a little grumpy which is adorable

gaunt turtle
#

Yes yes! @stuck parcel

warm cave
#

how do u get rid of villagers!! I accidentally skipped a day or two and some weirdo moved into my village!

stuck parcel
#

lmao

gaunt turtle
#

When you have a plot open stay in the day it’s open or else if you move forward a day the plot gets sold often by villagers your friends already kicked out

#

Just time travel to kick out villagers

stuck parcel
#

do anyone have their house layout fairly tight together? I am looking for some inspiration. Don't want to take up more than like one and a half box

I love the vibe the lanterns give :)

@patent sky that looks lovely!!

Umm guys can someone please let me catalogue his kitchen? I literally have 0 kitchen furniture... I just need to catalogue it so then I can buy from my Nook thing, would be very helpful from you😣

#

I am struggling how to re-design my island, i know it won't be as impressive as others 😦

worn flame
#

starting my island redesign, i want the upper level to be a garden/sanctuary surrounding the museum but am open to changing to shape of it. i want an area for all the villagers houses, a large area for mine and my husbands houses close to the beach front, a small orchid and an area for a park. does anyone have any suggestions for the layout?

hidden kindle
#

you don't need to be as impressive as others, you just need to do what makes you happy 🙂

chrome mural
#

I absolutely hate that you can't make minute adjustments to building locations

#

Instead I have to move the building twice

#

Once to get it out of the way

robust dew
#

yeah i hate that

chrome mural
sharp yoke
#

worse... when you want to change the path under it... so you have to move it to put it back exactly where it is

chrome mural
#

oh shit

#

I thought you couldn't have path under buildings

sharp yoke
#

and then a guy decides to move out... can't move it...
next day, he's packing up, can't move it...
next day he's gone... empty lot... can't move it...
next day new guy moves in... can't move it... he's unpacking...

#

(╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻

chrome mural
#

looks like I've got a lot of moving to do if that's the case

sharp yoke
#

I just gave up, most my stuff is still sitting on the beach

chrome mural
#

No way I'm waiting that long to do it normally, I'm starting up the time machine

#

I don't have a problem with doing it just to finish construction on something

#

I have a problem with patience

wintry junco
#

Yeah I thought the path underneath automatically changes to grass

#

If this is true I'll have to get rid of the zen bridge I just built today 😥😭

sharp yoke
#

hmm, I haven't tried yet. but I swore I saw a house not sitting on grass recently... I'm still moving my junk to the beach so I haven't tried

#

not time traveling, so progress is slow... I'm already done with everything I can do today... as I am still waiting for a house to move out of my way due to the aforementioned moving villager

#

right now everything but the last 3 houses are sitting on beach

wintry junco
#

it's about a month to move all the houses and buildings then move them back again

south karma
#

I’m upset u can’t make anymore mouths to the see with terraforming

wintry junco
#

this game is slowwww

sharp yoke
#

yeah not being able to move a river mouth is... annoying... wish I'd known that one ahead of time.

#

slow is good, sometimes. already has like 200 hours in

proper lava
#

Anyone with a resident services really close to the airport feel like showing off their entrance?

rapid dust
#

270 hours in. This is the front of my walk way to my house (no time traveling or dupping just trading)

proper lava
#

240 hours in.. broke down my island three times and have houses on the beach lol

wind wind
#

Yep, feelsbad

#

ohhh I've made a mistake

stiff root
#

@sharp yoke just fyi I tried it the other day and the house will remove the paths

wind wind
#

I made every single housing space on my island one tile too small

vocal heath
rapid dust
#

@vocal heath moving buildings cost money thats it i think

stiff root
#

That heavily depends on what you're trying to do. Moving a home costs 50k. Your own is 30k though

sharp yoke
#

50k a move, save for your own home. inclines and bridges are the real cost to move

heavy summit

Charge people bells to visit ur store island to fund ur island

stiff root
proud topaz
#

Hey guys I'm trying to brainstorm ideas for what I should add to my island since I unlocked island designer, any ideas

chrome mural
#

invest in turnips or charge people entry fees if you get a really good turnip price

stiff root
#

I made 8 million through turnips do far. Kinda feels like cheating

vocal heath
#

@chrome mural The highest I've seen my turnip prices (so far was like 100 bells or so) 😅

woven drift
robust dew
#

i made 20 mill last time i played with turnips

chrome mural
#

Can't really control it sadly

#

Just gonna have to pray

#

Turnips are Serious Business for some people

robust dew
#

just go to the turnips section of the server

#

yeah lol

bold vale
#

i'm redoing my nooks/ables/museum area and need some advice... near the resident services like a plaza or an elaborate entrance for the museum? anyone have some references or inspo?

My bells income lives off the stalk market

Can somebody send their museum entrance with waterfalls all around. Im looking for some inspiration

Any tips or tricks to make realistic rivers. Mine are very straight/slanted, looks weird.

tawny glacier
#

how are people so creative, i just wiped my island clean of all its furniture and i see all these islands and i just get completely discouraged, i have no clue how anybody can think up all these mountain locations and cool areas.

#

at this point, id let someone else layout my island if they are good at it

#

i just want an island that looks nice on map view and has room for decorations

hidden vessel
#

anyone have a cute island i can tour? i want inspo! Promise i wont take anything or pick flowers lol

sharp arrow
#

my island is open, some people seem to be having trouble connecting tho

hidden vessel
#

how are people so creative, i just wiped my island clean of all its furniture and i see all these islands and i just get completely discouraged, i have no clue how anybody can think up all these mountain locations and cool areas.
@tawny glacier start out with one area! plan what u want in it (try a theme!) and then lay out areas where u want shops/houses. honestly u dont have to plan that much if u make sure u can access everything! look for inspo pics they r very helpful!

wind wind
#

^ make sure to plan out your spacing properly

hidden vessel
#

^ make sure to plan out your spacing properly
@wind wind yess i use tiles! they r helpful!

wind wind
#

Ah, good. I used tiles but somehow messed my entire village up, so try not to do the same thing Tendo

tawny glacier
#

i know that, i just dont even know how to do all that, i did it once and it looked like garbage. now my island is flat and i have absolutely zero clue what to do with it now, i have no idea how people come up with their upper cliff designs and rivers, im just clueless and it makes me not even want to play anymore.

timid kernel
#

tip for the tip! use the pathing for spacing if you need to, i've been doing that and it's been super helpful

wind wind
#

It helps to think about what you want Tendo

timid kernel
#

look for maps that give you inspiration

hidden vessel
#

also there is a reason why cliffs are in the back of the island and on the sides!! u can see behind them lol learned that the hard way

timid kernel
#

also realize it probably won't take a day or maybe even a week to get it to a place where you are happy, enjoy the small successes in your progress

tawny glacier
#

i do look at maps to give me inspiration, but im not good at terraforming these insane rivers, and cliffs.

timid kernel
#

i legit spent 8 hours trying to draw a teddy bear head with this stupid river tool lol, and it's a messy outline but at least it's something i can work with

calm narwhal
#

Dodo code is JRWML. I am opening up my island for people to come look at while I am planning my next area. Just please be aware that its still a huge WIP and not complete.

wind wind
#

And you'll encounter failure along the way... just don't plan your village wrong, it really hurts

solemn spruce
#

That river tool is unkind lol

timid kernel
#

ALLLLL i want was to have a nice curve for the bottom of the head, the ears and the little forhead line

#

but no i had to spend like 8 hours making a messy outline >O urg, nintendo.. YET the path tool can easily do corners

torn geode
#

Designing and terraforming is difficult, so I'm really just doing it small-area-by-area

solemn spruce
#

I had the same issue trying to make a curve and my chara kept moving around cuz stick drift and twirpstare

woven drift
#

My residental services is like right infront of the air port and im struggling to design around it plz help ;-;

nintendo is just sitting back in their chairs laughing at us who are trying to curve something longer than 4 blocks

but this man doesn't give up so easily >O i can do it!

lmfao, well at least they allowed us to make 45 degree angles or whatever it is with the river tool, it .. sorta .. can work.. with.. e nOUgH TImE .. why nintendo roleuchibear

You should be fine as long as you don't pick the double southern river maps, and like the location of the town hall

so i thought of just creating a huge map maze, so anyone who wants to visit buy from my ables or cranny or any visitor like saharah, celeste, they'd go thru the maze first. i wonder if my villagers will keep getting lost

I would say it probably would be visible yeah

It's a giant fossil

I meant would I be able to see the head

well im gonna set it back up

wispy pond
#

@woven drift Do you have the same river exits? You can't change how your island looks until really late in the game. The way the river exits can't be changed.

woven drift
#

@wispy pond i do have the same river exists! i tore down like everything though because i didnt like how it looked on my island so its just a bunch of grass now and idk where to even begin to try n recreate the left side of the map (cus i rly like it ;w;)

#

Do you guys think I can get this center to work, or should I redesign?

Looked good on a map, but it's starting to feel sort of bland, and I can barely fit anything unique in there

Anyone got any cool designs for mountainous or forest designs for maps/sections of the map?

The landscaping tools in this game remind me of minecraft

shapes are doable at a small scale, but you really need a large space to flesh out the details

yeahhhhh.... i tried, all day! lol but at least i know it just isn't going to work the way i wanted

I think I might copy xqc and name my island PepeggaLand

It was like this originally but I hate how fake it looks

whats your fav about it

i think if you just wiggle the straight rivers about a bit it would look nice with the round part

hybrid swift

I hate the circle that’s the issue

@pale needle i see

There’s nothing I can do with the middle

Hi @hybrid swift my friend was talking about how she wanted her island to be called peepeepoopoo so she really likes your island name

Who’s your friend that’s very nice ;-;

I flattened my map and finally made the necessary modifications to my previous modifications I didn’t like

Maybe I’ll make a mountain island

And bridges connect main structures

Bridges can connect mountains?

But if you have water over it?

I should’ve experimented before starting

Which one Juicerland, Pepeland, Pepeisland, Peepoland, Juiceland, Pepeggaland and Shnozeisland,

#

to name my island

wise locust
#

Something u won't regret

tawny glacier
#

so i designed my layout and was inspired by @modest mural and i think it looks nice, what do you guys think.

timid kernel
#

@wise locust someone else said that before unless it was you, iirc it was their villager houses 😦

timid kernel
#

at least you aren't undoing like 10 hours of work like i am xD

ancient elbow
#

I think the most heart breaking thing is thinking you measured out your tiles correctly until you’re too deep into whatever project you’re building

wise locust
#

Lol, rip whoever said that b4 me, that sucks

calm narwhal
wise locust
#

I love how natural it looks

sharp arrow
#

Make sure you have spots that work with bridges

ancient elbow
#

It’s snakey

sharp arrow
#

But it looks great

wise locust
#

I like snakey

ancient elbow
#

If not, do some patches of land you can hop over

wise locust
#

U go bud

#

Stepping stones

timid kernel
#

what does yours look like now @ancient elbow ?

sharp arrow
#

good point clutter

wise locust
#

It'll look appealing next to rocks and stuff, rock pool

calm narwhal
#

Is snakey bad?

wise locust
#

No, that's subjective

ancient elbow
#

Mines a mess rn because I’m still under construction but I got a vision

wise locust
#

Yes, vision very important

timid kernel
#

nice, that's what matters 😄

ancient elbow
wise locust
#

Ok, nvm.

ancient elbow
#

Moving things around day by day

timid kernel
#

that looks pretty!

slow tangle
#

Don’t know if this is the right question on here , but how many trees do people generally have in their town?

timid kernel
#

bonus points for double south river exits

sharp arrow
#

like a number?

slow tangle
#

Yes

wise locust
#

@ancient elbow Don't call urs a mess, now I look bad😫

ancient elbow
#

If I knew how booty south river exits were I would’ve done the other layouts 🥺

slow tangle
#

A combination of fruits, cedars, etc

sharp arrow
#

no idea

timid kernel
#

it just makes the island look so top to down heavy

sharp arrow
#

except i probably have about 12 of each fruit

ancient elbow
#

@wise locust I’m sure yours looks great too

timid kernel
#

your island does a good job at sorta fixing it though, a lot going on at top

wise locust
#

It be a WIP

radiant urchin
wise locust
#

......😮

manic oriole
#

very clean

#

very symmetrical and clean

timid kernel
#

i wanna say it's safe? like it looks good, pretty symmetrical and fine

wise locust
#

Is there a layout with the plaza centred like that?

ancient elbow
#

That’s how I’m tryna be

timid kernel
#

good job on it 😄

ancient elbow
#

Mines centered like that

radiant urchin
#

Yep. I had to reset like 15 times but thats where mine is

mystic sleet
#

Isn't there a max number of inclines?

radiant urchin
#

Is there o-o

wise locust
#

I have a quarter of my island dedicated to an outdoor Dino park lol

timid kernel
#

8 i think

mystic sleet
#

I thought I read 8

radiant urchin
#

Just googled it x. x

wise locust
#

Wait what? You can't have more than eight inclines per Island?

radiant urchin
#

8 inclines and 8 bridges

cerulean belfry
radiant urchin
#

Welp. Good thing I asked or else I wouldnt have known till i was mid building it

wise locust
#

My day is ruined and my Dino park just got cancelled

cerulean belfry

#

@radiant urchin still really cool design though! I'm sure you can tweek it

radiant urchin
#

Thanks!

slow tangle

#

Rivern’t

slow tangle
#

I’m trying to figure out how to make the most out of it. With the 9 houses. I was trying to make it into the 6 medallions OoT style

#

Then I realized that I have an extra house and have no idea on where to go with it.

stuck parcel
#

@slow tangle with it being tihs close, can u not see the front door properly?

#

happened to me -.-

#

and basically any decoration u put cannot be seen except if it;s put inbetween the houses

slow tangle
#

Hmmm I’m thinking perhaps. I should move the 9 houses and turn that circle in a triforce form

ancient elbow
#

Hmm

#

You can definitely make some tri force shape and put 3-3-4

#

If there’s space

slow tangle
#

You wanna come to my town tomorrow and I’ll show you what I was going for?

rapid dust
timid kernel
#

interesting!

hybrid swift
#

You know what I just rolled with it and made a 90 degree river to represent me being a math major

#

With the little inner square too

timid kernel
#

i didn't even know town hall could be over there with 2 south exit rivers

#

nice yan

slow tangle
#

The top left has the red, white, and blue roses that form the American flag, and it has the Statue of Liberty on the top left corner

rapid dust
#

yeah i thought my townhall placement was so weird compared to others

#

I like the water formations. It seems very natural and wild

indigo trellis
#

Okay, I'm glad the water looks ok. I'd started to worry I'm going overboard with the waterscaping rip

radiant urchin
#

Nah. It looks really nice imo

indigo trellis
#

I love how symmetrical your island design is, its very peaceful to look at.

#

and thanks!! 😄

radiant urchin
#

Haha thanks. I was going for a city of water. I had more river flow, but had to delete some because apparently the bridge/incline limit is 8 each x. x

indigo trellis
#

Maybe do fake bridges with fencing and designs on the ground? I've seen some that look really nice!

manic oriole
#

ok so I was cleaning my island so I can start designing with a clean slate

and clearing all rivers and cliffs took me 4 hours lmao

proper lava
#

Nook Miles items was so poorly thought out.. I want Black streetlights not green ;/

proper owl
#

same but i want white ones, rip

radiant urchin
#

Ill look into the fake bridges thing. I might use it, but I feel it wont be the same x. x

proper lava
#

Like, it would be a bleeding fortune to buy out 50 streetlights. And a pain having to trade dozens of people.

indigo trellis
#

I have white lights! If you have the pastel teacup ride I'd love to trade a few lights for that rip

#

I'm stuck with a ride I dont like because of that nook miles thing too lmao. really is a silly way to encourage trading

Hi! I had a question about unlocking terraforming sorry if this isn’t the right place

#

It’s regarding KK coming to my island. Yesterday I achieved 3 star rating and they said they’d call kK and he’s check his schedule, but today bc it’s fishing tourney and tomorrow is Easter, an I right to assume KK won’t come till Monday?

haughty fable
#

hi this is my town at the moment, looks very terrible because i just started terraforming so i’ve been experimenting with different rivers and different house placements, idk what to do and im out of hope so im wondering if anyone could help me..? :c i want to make a very cute pretty town but first i need to make a good map. i have nooo good ideas.. please dm me..!

proper lava
#

Anyone have some non cherry blossom / bamboo light option ideas for a more modern/urban esk

timid kernel
#

welp it took me like an hour but finally fixed my map, zzzzz tomorrow is a new day

primal ginkgo
#

I gotta finish my orchard tomorrow I won’t have fun with that terraforming

subtle whale
#

Is anyone here good at planning islands? I have no idea what I’m doing. LOL

radiant urchin
#

I couldnt add more bridges, so i decided I could add more water by adding in lakes and stuff 😄

#

@subtle whale I would just start with a theme and going from there. I worked more with symmetry and the concept of a water city to get my creativity going. Once you start some major structures, the rest you can wing from there and tweak it until it looks like what you wanted

flat dock
#

so i found a really cool detail trick idk if anyones done it but i used picked cosmos as detailing for my beach and the good part is they dont grow back on sand so theyll stay like that forever .. no clue if it hurts your town score but im pretty sure it doesnt because they count as flowers!

radiant urchin
#

Thats actually pretty smart o-o
steals idea

flat dock
#

go ahead :)

dreamy slate
#

Anyone wanting to give me a tour of their island?

native socket
#

what do you guys do with trees you want to move while terraforming? i have tons to move (redoing my whole island) but not enough space in my pockets to keep all of them :/ it would be great to not have to relocate them temporarily but if that's all i can do i guess i'll live

flat dock
#

trash them/find area to store

radiant urchin
#

If I know my orchard is gonna be in one area, I store them somewhere else and work on that first and put them back after that terraforming area is done

#

Or just regrow them later

native socket
#

gotcha, thank you for your input :)

i’m dreading the day where i’ll have to move my buildings around since some houses are weirdly placed lol

Is anyone placing their villagers scattered throughout the island? I have seen a lot of people have them in one area.

unreal rose
calm narwhal
#

@unreal rose are you giving them their own yard?

#

Like do you find enough room to do so?

unreal rose
#

Some of them yes but I’m working on making more room for them

eager zodiac
#

I started with mine spread out then made a little resident section for them with their own property decorations and fencing

calm narwhal
#

@eager zodiac did you ever feel like their yards were cramped?

eager zodiac
#

All of them have the same amount of space except one because of a previous bridge placement. I guess it could feel a little cramped but I like that it’s even for everyone

calm narwhal
#

Thanks for answering. :)

Anyone have any museum exterior design ideas that look nice? I’m a bit stumped at the moment on what to put there

My villagers are quite spread out. I have them in little groups though, so no one house is very far from another really.

shell plume
#

i dont give them a ton of yard space rn but its not totally right rn

#

im pretty conflicted rn on placements for like nature things

Some of mine have quite small yards rip. Some are better off lol.

I try to make up for it by trying to give them plenty to do around the island lmao

I have a cafe sign outside of there though, the cafe is just too big for you to see it in the photo 😂

How do I cover up rivers D:

wide burrow
#

@remote birch you need to unlock terraforming to be able to do that.

#

With or without the white planks on top? Or should I put a different path underneath?

remote birch
#

yeah I thought it was the cliff one and not waterscaping. I wish there was a faster way

well I'm the CEO of n too because I got 2 of them lol @primal ginkgo

You know what ima cover up my whole river and go swirly river

primal ginkgo

Just keep the river three wide and move it in and out without making it change width

severe sparrow
#

swirly would be cool

primal ginkgo
#

That’ll be natural but look nice and clean too

hybrid swift

It needs to be 4 wide to have river spawns

nope

3 is enough

No just 3?

@shell tiger super cute! I love the step stones idea so I made sure to put some in my map too haha

@primal ginkgo ty! The hopping makes me happy everytime lol

that looks so nice

#

The extra spacing in the sides is for my flower system, basically yellow flowers mean I don't really want that villager

#

@fast elk could i come over to take a look? 🙂

@sick fossil you could do a park with a community garden

#

Guys any ideas on land layout? I basically covered up a river stream that looked horrible and wanted to kick off on a clean slate.

#

Will be removing bridges too

#

That's cute. There's so much you can do with custom paths in this game

woven drift
#

Gj!

high cypress
#

Thank you! It's really cool so far ^^

tame pilot
#

I'll be glad when I finish removing the custom designs I put down. I moved my rocks which is amazing but the cleanup is taking forever

harsh plinth
#

Do you guys think having a maze as a section would be more frustrating or entertaining? I have a space slightly larger than 16x16 that's free and I'm thinking about making a maze out of it.

woven drift
#

That sounds horrifying lol

tame pilot
#

I think a maze would be cool

harsh plinth
#

How long did it take to get them to spawn there

trail bison
#

i have some small space left in the top left corner of my map, give me ideas :p

harsh plinth
#

Depends on what you already have

tame pilot
#

After covering every free stretch of grass except those 6 spaces on my island with custom design it took like 10 days

trail bison
#

everything thats not a flower breeding garden

harsh plinth
#

Gardens/orchards are probably the most common thing people use to fill empty spaces

trail bison
#

i had the thought of making a public pool lmao

tame pilot
#

I actually had to open up another 6-10 spaces so weeds and fossils could spawn somewhere

harsh plinth
#

that sounds like so much work

#

But worth it

#

I wish my rocks looked like that

tame pilot
#

Yes on both counts

harsh plinth
#

And a public pool sounds nice, I wonder if there's like a lifeguard stand in this game

tame pilot
#

There is it's a nooks recipe

trail bison
#

there is a lifegaurd stand

tame pilot
#

You get the lifeguard stand with like the lighthouse and stuff

harsh plinth
#

I'd say go for it, then

woven drift
#

Anyones town open? Need some inspiration for my town. c:

tame pilot
#

I think there are pool loungers too. I know there are beach towls

harsh plinth
#

You can make beach towels out of custom pathing too

wise rain
#

I organized festival boardgame in my island lol it took me a lot of time, lots of tabletop to install and buy lol

woeful oxide
#

when you have a fishing tourney and your rivers are a mess...

harsh plinth
#

Also @woven drift I'm down to open mine in a bit but right now I'm spamming nook miles looking for villagers

indigo quarry
#

Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should do behind Resident Services?

woven drift
#

Kk np xD

tame pilot
#

@harsh plinth I'd love to come too if that's ok

indigo quarry
#

I was thinking about either making it a lake with a little island or a waterfall mountain, but idk

harsh plinth
#

Sure, I don't mind

woven drift
#

Kewl we can be buddies taking notes on what to do xD

#

Cuz my town looks so dead

tame pilot
#

@indigo quarry maybe do up a fishing picnic spot

woven drift
#

Barely have any plants n trees

tame pilot
#

I haven't unlocked terraforming yet but I'm trying to come up with ideas for areas

#

Im glad i can finally terraform, couldnt stand how awful my place looked

#

Oh wow i love that!

meager seal
#

Thank you

woven drift
#

Your welcome!

meager seal
woven drift
#

Yea its such a hassle when other ppl has the patience to do it

meager seal
#

Ik

#

And I don’t want to time travel because I heard it could mess up your island

woven drift
#

Its more like weeds will grow around alot and one of your villagers plan to leave if you skip alot but I do it all the time

karmic kestrel
woven drift
#

I just make sure i talk to them every so often

meager seal
#

Oh

cerulean furnace
#

still a huge work in progress, gotta move all the facilities and houses but i'm proud of what i've done so far!

meager seal
#

I want terraforming badly

woven drift
#

@karmic kestrel how have you kept yourself sane?

karmic kestrel
#

@cerulean furnace the rivers are real cool

cerulean furnace
#

thank you!!

meager seal
#

Why do I have the ugliest villager

karmic kestrel
#

@woven drift i have a VISIONNNN im kinda going crazy tbh

woven drift
#

I would legit just quit, thats so much work to do. My fingers hurt looking at your map xD

cerulean furnace
#

yeah it's painful terraforming your entire island tbh xD

meager seal
#

Why do I feel broke even though I have 10 mil

karmic kestrel
#

I gotta take breaks lmao i hope its worth it, im worried about the incline limit cause i need more so bad

#

@meager seal i feel rich with that haha i started terraforming once i had that amt

meager seal
#

My island is a big mess

woven drift
#

Same here

vernal stag
#

I have all my villagers houses spread out and it’s a huge hassle

tame pilot
#

Ok first island assessment. Let's ee what Isabelle thinks

meager seal
#

I’m prob the youngest in the entire server

pliant briar
#

Really

meager seal
#

Yep

woven drift
#

I did that too and regretted it so bad that i legit put everyones houses like 2 inches next to eachother

meager seal
#

Don’t ask

karmic kestrel
tame pilot
#

LOL 1 star

woven drift
#

@meager seal don’t say that in a server. You could be reported to discord for violating TOS

meager seal
#

Oh

#

I didn’t read the rules

karmic kestrel
#

Should i put my villagers together? I was thinking of spreading them out before, whats the difference?

woven drift
#

I doubt people here care but protect your personal info regardless my dude

#

@karmic kestrel i did the same thing and it’s my biggest regret when it comes to laying out my island personally

stuck parcel
#

how are people extending from their plaza for main street?

#

which block should i be taking?

woven drift
#

The difference is that if u spread em out so far, it would be a hassle to run to each and every one of their houses to talk to them. If u put em close but some space then ur good

stuck parcel
#

as in which block from the base should i place the store, able sisters etc.

bronze lantern
#

I have all my islanders caged on the bottom right, its a tight little area n looks decent

woven drift
#

@karmic kestrel I’m doing a lot of moving now Bc I decided against it. And it’s also annoying tracking everyone’s houses down

vernal stag
#

Yea I’m thinking I’m going to go in that direction it’s so much easier

gusty briar
#

Hey all I have around 150-200 hours in the game I think but I’m really struggling on the layout and how to fill these voids or what I should do. Can anyone help or give suggestions?:(

karmic kestrel
#

Hmmm i see okok gotta rethink my layout a bit

bronze lantern
#

I also moved my house all the way in the back left corner cause Carrie kept stealing my bloody flowers 😠

woven drift
#

@gusty briar have you tried a park area yet?

#

I know for my I’m in the process of making a bamboo park, and then smol amusement park later

gusty briar
#

So I could in middle but town houses and shops in the way so then idk where to move them even

fringe vessel
#

What do you guys think look better; to surround the villagers houses in imperial fence or in country fence

karmic kestrel
#

Random but rivers are so tough to design

#

Got a pic of imperial? @fringe vessel

stuck parcel
#

anyone have tightly packed villager house design i can see?

fringe vessel
#

Hmm why is it backwards????

karmic kestrel
#

Imperial imo, but without the horizontal front fences

unkempt void
#

Need help designing my island, want to move houses and fill empty spaces any help would be appreciated 🙂

#

K, thanks

#

@versed dome pathing

stuck parcel
#

@versed dome I do terraform area by area as i build it

#

so if i want to build museum area, i only terraform museum area

#

or else u will just change it after u done terraforming whole island!

karmic kestrel
#

Wow how do u get such symmertical river mouths

versed dome
#

@karmic kestrel rng lol

#

@stuck parcel i thought about that

#

i'm trying to get a basic outline before i commit to anything else

karmic kestrel
#

Rng?

versed dome
#

#

lethal thunder
#

right now i’m demolishing all my bridges and crap

#

i already moved the houses to the beach for rn

versed dome
#

@stuck parcel I can craft it if u need some help

heady dew
#

@waxen hinge boredom and I want to make a ocarina of time themed island

karmic kestrel
#

That sounds cool; crossed my mind to make a botw themed one before

heady dew
#

That game is too big

waxen hinge
#

Links lmao

heady dew
#

I’m not just doing theme tho I’m making the actual map of the game

#

@waxen hinge someone did that already

waxen hinge
indigo trellis
#

I made a lil island and put my house on it, should I build a suspension bridge or a brown zen bridge? the suspension bridge looks more rustic and its really cute, but the zen bridge looks very nice and I have a couple of zen bridges in my town already so it would match.

karmic kestrel
#

@indigo trellis got a pic?

waxen hinge
#

I was thinking of doing that

heady dew
#

Suspension

#

Someone did it already tho and I don’t want to get compared to them @waxen hinge

waxen hinge
#

that shouldn’t stop u tho who cares

#

make it better

#

just a suggestion lol

karmic kestrel
#

@waxen hinge map looks real cool

waxen hinge
#

Ikr

#

I haven’t actaully seen anybody do it yet but Ik someone has

heady dew
#

Plus I never played links awakening and I like ocarina of time way more

waxen hinge
#

Wonder if it’s any good

heady dew
#

It’s on YouTube

waxen hinge
#

ocarina of time is linear tho isn’t it

heady dew
#

A tour of it if u want to see

#

I’ll show u the map I’m following

#

But way smaller

waxen hinge
#

What the

#

Gonna be tough

#

I’ve only seen a link to the past on YouTube

heady dew
#

Gonna be way smaller and I’m leaving out certain areas that aren’t relevant

#

I don’t think anyone has done this yet which is what gave me the motivation

visual hamlet
#

Oh the more I go on the more I regret my island with the two bottom mouth rivers + unaligned resident services

karmic kestrel
#

@heady dew good luck! Looking forward to seeing the progress

#

Low key wished we could have multiple islands to design
