Have you tried Lila's tutorial ?

[signal thunder]

https://youtu.be/zv5LPWjZu2k?si=x05Q8VPA3s6waltE

the soft spot to place the book is very small so you really gotta spam it

[inland bobcat]

the giant pond is made out of cancel placed mossy rugs I believe(I zoomed in)! Not a real pond, more for looks, but honestly they need to add a water feature mechanic like yesterday LOL

[snow drift]

multiple times yes. I honestly am at the point of giving up

this direction is what confuses me most. I have never tried cancel placmeent before so maybe I am biting off more than I can chew with the books?
You can't actually place them together with cancel placement. What you need to do is move one out of the way with cancel placement, and then place the second.

"So put your first item where you want it, just placed normally. Now pick that item up and move it out of the way but don't place it. THIS is where you hit the number key for your other placeable item. The item you were moving will look like it placed down and you will be holding the thing you pulled out of your hotbar. Just put that thing away.

Now move the second item into the place where you want it merged with the first item and place it down normally.

Then reload your plot by switching plots or by leaving to Kilima and coming back. "

[jagged badger]

I made it

[snow drift]

incredible

[jagged badger]

Thank you 🙂 its the elderwood rugs

[snow drift]

chef's kiss

[tepid solstice]

Pickle's explanation is different from your case This one was to merge 2 items together, the one you're looking for is to do the rotation glitch Most glitches are cancel placement, but used in different ways to achieve certain results (floating, sinking and rotating)

I'd still advice you to train and get the hang of cancel placement first before attempting to lay your book flat

[dark horizon]

anyone have an issue where a decor anchor works sometimes, and other times you load your plot it doesn't work and the items are on your front lawn?

it seems that when I load to my home plot from an explorable area, the items are on my front lawn. when I load into my home plot from another plot of mine, the items are anchored correctly.

[signal thunder]

what items are getting sent to the lamp zone?

[snow drift]

ahhh. I see...do you have a cancel placement video for starters to recommend @tepid solstice ?

[dark horizon]

twisted tree

[tepid solstice]

Are you a PC or Console player ?

[snow drift]

PC 🙂

[tepid solstice]

Then check Lila's https://youtu.be/SLgXUZlwLoU?si=vNhtn8PLYCNfsCxI It has all 3 basic glitches you need to know first

[snow drift]

thank you so much, I will work on this

[signal thunder]

what are you anchoring it to and where?

[dark horizon]

in bounds, to a red present, tree is upside down

[tepid solstice]

Might be the height the problem ? I mean... That tree's enormous

[bronze forge]

struggling with cancel placement. dont understand it at all 😞

[tepid solstice]

(But it is also bugged atm so... Could be that as well )

[dark horizon]

i was thinking the red present would get around the height limit...blah

[tepid solstice]

#🏡│decor message

[dark horizon]

oh shoot you're right...I probably am stuck waiting until they fix the tree 😭

[tepid solstice]

Some items needs to be anchored in chains when floated too high or sunken too low

[dark horizon]

I'll give the chain anchor a try, ty!

[flint escarp]

Yes, you just do everything else the same way, but always pick up your tables from the first (anchor) table.

[dark horizon]

it was definitely a height restriction, chain floating has resolved it! tysm 🫶

[flint escarp]

If this happens then it has become unanchored for some reason. It is often because of distance, especially if you are using "anchorless" floating (aka, one cup method or using your house wall/floor as the anchor).

And yes, it will happen when you change servers and not when you change plots.

I'll ask the same question of you that I asked someone else just now... what steps are you following?

[flint escarp]

There's much more to it than this when you are trying to rotate books.

[ionic acorn]

Were you able to use your soil tiles as normal after flicking them into the conservatory?

[flint escarp]

No, you can't till them after you flick them unfortunately.

[ionic acorn]

Darn, thanks guys. Was excited when I searched and saw your experiment lol. Does the floating method still work for them to be functional (got the recc'd YT vid pulled up to try it out)

[flint escarp]

You can float them off a red present, just make sure your present is anchored to the ground--don't put it inside your house.

[violet fox]

these are so cute!

[flint escarp]

I'm not going to be much help on Switch, because I don't know how to do it on console (I just know there's some jumping and the glider is involved). But is it the method/steps you follow that is the problem, or does the whole reason you do it not make sense?

[signal thunder]

anyone got a full flower conservatory? tried searching the channel but nothing

[bronze forge]

well i looked at more videos and a bunch of them say u have to load in another plot and mark where ur previous object was on the old plot to the new one where u want it to merge but in order to do tht i need to unlock a new plot thts 50k which i dont have so im farming and fishing to sell stuff

[flint escarp]

Don't mix up ghosting (old method that has been patched) with cancel placement. There are many tutorials out there that use the wrong term and call cancel placement ghosting. Then you search for "ghosting" tutorials and it's totally the wrong thing.

You don't have to mark anything on a second plot. You do this all on the same plot. Anything that is telling you to do something on two different plots is not cancel placement.

The only exception is that reloading your plot resets your cancel placed item. ONE of the ways you can do this is to switch to another plot and come back. But you can also do this by leaving to go to Kilima and coming back.

Also you do get a second plot free. I think you have to have unlocked all the sections of your first plot, but then you'll have a second one that you do not have to pay for.

[bronze forge]

this is all good info. thank u 🙂‍↕️🙂‍↕️

[dawn socket]

Now if you want a gazebo... You need LOTS of plots... XD

[sonic apex]

Don't remind me of that. It was a pain.

[timber stump]

Sooo am I just stuck with the wall paper on the inside of the estate house door wall??😭😭

[alpine trail]

how do you mean? like fully decorated?

[inner cobalt]

It's building a HH the first time what gives you the 2nd plot (or at least it was, my wife's character hasn't passed the tutorials except fixing the house and has the 2)

[signal thunder]

yeah just the conservatory with just all flowers. something like this https://youtu.be/zv5LPWjZu2k?si=x05Q8VPA3s6waltE

[flint escarp]

Yeah, that's what it was for us, but doesn't everyone just get a house now? I feel like I read somewhere that it changed for new players.

[signal thunder]

actually thats perfect think i might try and recreate that

[alpine trail]

well I posted some pics of mine what..a couple weeks ago.. and it's a proper comfy flowery space

[inner cobalt]

Yeah, you get a house now but you still have to "fix it" with some materials

[flint escarp]

For now, yes. That wall got a new bug with this update. Hopefully they fix it soon.

[alpine trail]

if you want you can come visit in game to see what I have done

I find a lot of inspiration in visiting other plots XD

[signal thunder]

ooh i just looked at the pics! i def love it!! it looks so nice and cozy ❤️

[alpine trail]

I used a lot of the ravenwood and umbraan and elderwood stuff

and finding out you can plant stuff in the floor was helpful

[signal thunder]

i am not diggin this bookshelf. i wanted a cute little reading area under the trees!

[alpine trail]

maybe the Dragontide shelf? Or Elderwood or Umbraan? they're curvy and more...organic looking

[signal thunder]

no book shelf it is haha nothing is looking right

[alpine trail]

fair

[weary solar]

Anyone know if there's a better umbrella I can find or craft? I want to add something to the balcony of my house

[signal thunder]

there is the lily rattan umbrella you get from crafting other lily rattan decor and summer stripe umbrella

[weary solar]

Neat! any way I can get them?

[signal thunder]

lily rattan starter pack you buy from tish when you reach level 15 furniture making and the summer stripe umbrella you get from the rummage pile in palia took me forever to get that one

[weary solar]

Noted. Where did you find the summer striped umbrella?

[signal thunder]

the rummage pile in bahari they change every irl day so today is h5...i just realized i put in palia and not bahari in the first response haha

[weary solar]

Cool. Thanks for the info!

[normal ether]

okay I tried but I couldn't get the table on paven I'll try again after I've slept 😊 i am from Denmark and now it is night 🙈

[weary solar]

I found the rummage pile, unfortunately I didn't get the umbrella. Maybe next time hopefully 🙁

[craggy viper]

Is there a way to attach the pillar so that it's on the top side of the builders stone floor? Every time I try it ends up on the bottom edge. I'm trying free up some decor slots from all the walled edging I made. I'm down to 96 out of 3500 left and being able to do this would give me back at least 200 slots if not more.

[prisma cloak]

I discovered the honey bunch set and im SO obsessed and wanted to show my progress in decorating my house i love it😭😭😭

Also what would fit in the middle section of this shelf? It shows theres an option to put stuff there but i cant find anything that fits

I wish there was more stuff to the bundle like cabinets and a wardrobe and a whole couch id be unstoppable

And a bookshelf!

[craggy viper]

Ask and Yee shall receive...

https://palia.wiki.gg/wiki/Honeybunch_Decor

[flint escarp]

Do you mean for the honeybunch set? The bookshelf is a prize ball reward from Zeki's machine (there's also a chair and a bed there). And there is a couch in the set!

[prisma cloak]

😍😍😍😍 i only got the bed as a prize snd baught the set from Tish! Theres more??? Life is so good omg

[flint escarp]

Oh yeah, you can buy the starter set to craft from Tish and then get all the pieces.

[dawn socket]

Huh... My Caldera Kitsuus kinda matches the "Slate" coloring/dye on the Aristocrat items~

(May have to dye things in Slate now so they match my little "Lady"~ )

(There was also one other dye that was lighter, but kinda the same style, but I think the darker "Slate" fits the style better~ )

[delicate ridge]

I think i found the PERFECT spot for targeted lure dropping fixing to test the spot on some bees

Not a single plush though which is a crime

[green merlin]

Is it possible to move flowers in a pot that you’ve placed? I’m on ps5 and am unable to select them and can’t pickup the container because the interior stuff must be moved

[celest path]

Are there any new furniture items in the underground with the new patch?

[feral cape]

which flower in which pot? there might be a weird camera angle there needed to make it light up, other option is putting down an empty building, placing pot inside and picking up the whole thing up from top view (fastests if u have a spare one)

[earnest barn]

Q for the group - for reference pictures/video - would you find it more helpful on white wall/floor, black wall/floor - or both in a side by side?

(quick screengrabs to show my general idea)

[frank fern]

Anybody know what recipe bundle number in the Lunar Path: Path of the Tadpole the Alchemist cottage B is in?

[feral cape]

but what if

[feral cape]

cottage B is kinda no-more, it was a set of a base room + some other pieces mixed, in the path it would be lvl 4 and then probably pieces from lvl 10 but to be sure u got to reach lvl 31 for all stuff that was used in the "old" cottages sets

[frank fern]

Good to know. Thank you!!

[earnest barn]

would you find that beneficial for references?

[inland bobcat]

Im confused how these work for corners...

[feral cape]

for both contrasting options - yeah, u can see the colours on both at once and u have less work same time (which one would be better for wall and which for flooring im leaving to your judgement)

[feral cape]

u not alone, only corner i found for this is on top of a building block :I

[flint escarp]

There is a list of add-ons you need for each cottage in this post, if you want to stick to the original design of cottage B: #🏡│decor message And this post has a list of which items are at which level: #🏡│decor message

[flint escarp]

They work well if you float them inside a christmas tree, but otherwise, I really don't know how they are supposed to work!

[frank fern]

Omg this helps me SO much. I appreciate you letting me know!!!

[craggy viper]

So after a bit of playing around I figure out at least one way of getting the pillar to sit properly on the floor so it can be used as edging. However what happens then? GRASS!!!

To paraphrase the line from Dune. The object clipping of grass is the mind killer.

[surreal path]

UHM, HOOW??? I am so curious how to do this hahaha

[flint escarp]

What if you put them on top of the floor at the edge? I mean you can't actually put them there, but you can glitch them there.

[craggy viper]

I haven't been able to figure out how to glitch them using a shelf. Every time I tried it always ended up on the bottom side of the floor, not the top.

[flint escarp]

That shines out from under the arcade game. So if you float the arcade game really high up above, you'll see this under the game.

[flint escarp]

Hmm, let me try something...

[earnest barn]

cackling over here that new players no longer start out as peasants in tents like we had to at launch XD
Made a new acct and was VERY confused at why I wasn't put in a makeshift tent and got a house from go 😄

[craggy viper]

I did the same yesterday in order to see where trees and rocks are placed on a new plot before we harvested everything. I was dumbfounded and sad to be given a new house.

[craggy viper]

Thanks. 🙂

[flint escarp]

I can't remember, are you on PC or console?

[craggy viper]

PC

[flint escarp]

Can you flick?

[craggy viper]

I've seen it done but I've never really tried it. So guess the answer is not yet. 🙂

[flint escarp]

Okay, so project one--learn to flick. Sorry for the interrogation, do you have a spiral cobweb?

[craggy viper]

I don't and I will spend some time figuring out flicking.

[flint escarp]

Okay, so those floors are a pain the behind, because they don't place on things. I can't get it onto a shelf! So I flicked it onto a shelf, using another floor. Then I rotated the shelf 90 degrees, and I flicked the pillar onto the edge of the floor. You don't need the cobweb--it just makes it easy because you don't have to have it say "something is in the way."

No grass!

Let me go see if I can flick with another pillar. One sec...

[craggy viper]

That looks so much better. Can I use a wood builder's floor, attach it to the shelf and then attach the stone floor to the wood for pillar flicking?

[flint escarp]

Oh yes! good idea!

[earnest barn]

salt in the wound Badruu 😂

[craggy viper]

rofl

[short cipher]

I have a question about the alchemists cottage, is this the right channel?

[flint escarp]

Okay, as long as you can figure out flicking (which I'm going to explain real quick), this works really well. You can use another pillar to flick and it makes it place perfectly. Get your floor rotated 90 degrees. Place a pillar down nearby--you will use this one to do the flicking. Have another pillar in your inventory and note the number of it in your hotbar. Pick up the pillar that is nearby and move it to the edge of your builders floor. Slide it down as far as it will go --it will pop to the ground and turn yellow, then move upward from that--there will be about a pixel or two where it says "invalid placement" and then you'll hit the spot where it says "something is in the way" (my first picture below). At this point, hold down your mouse button like you're trying to place the pillar, and hit the number key for the other pillar that is in your hotbar. If it takes (sometimes I have to hit the number twice), it will place perfectly on the edge of your floor, and the other pillar will go back to where it was on the ground nearby (second picture below).

[flint escarp]

Yes, ask away!

[short cipher]

When we make the two story, why can't we connect the roofs to make one big room?

[flint escarp]

No, unfortunately, we cannot connect the attic spaces, only the actual rooms. It's a bummer.

[short cipher]

That is so frustrating! I spent hours trying to figure it out and playing with the roof connectors, which were a disappointment LOL

[flint escarp]

Yeah, the roof connectors are only external decor, not extra space inside. So you'll have a dormer or something outside that connects to no actual window on the inside. Kind of silly.

[short cipher]

I hope they can tweak it so we can connect the attic space! That would be wonderful

[sweet rapids]

Im actually interested in trying to do this too, but is there any way you could do a video 🥺 Im not quite getting it. Im not sure what Im missing

[flint escarp]

I can't upload video--I've tried before and it just doesn't work. Are you trying to do the exact same thing or flick something else? Flicking is by far the trickiest glitch, and a lot of people have a hard time with it. It took me months to figure it out. 😬

[short cipher]

Thanks for the help! I did make one big room upstairs but it's only with the flat roof.

[flint escarp]

Also for what it's worth, that was the super speedy version of the instructions. 😆 I can write it out more clearly. What part isn't working?

[sweet rapids]

OH actually i just got it 😅 sometimes all we have to do is complain a little bit haha

[flint escarp]

Yay! This is a glitch that maybe works two-thirds of the time. Some things seem to flick more easily than others and sometimes I have to do it a couple times before it sticks.

[hidden plinth]

Sometimes decorate home with this bricks walls is so horrible ><
Are You able to create rooftoop with this bricks floor?

[craggy viper]

Okay so I got this to work consistently but wouldn't you know Palia won't let you cheat. You can stack multiple pillars on top of the first, that way you only have to flick once. However any pillar used as edging after the first one has grass coming up through it. Now I only have approximately 399 stone builder's floors left to flick a pillar on to. 🤣

[strange barn]

Can I see how your guys did the outside of the estate home? I like the doors from it but the roof connector pieces look weird. But it looks weird if I don't put something above the door. What did you guys do?

[flint escarp]

👀

[flint escarp]

I used a builders bridge on one of mine!

[earnest barn]

I think I'm going to do a split design. It will be more resource intense for tints...but also my character won't block the furniture XD
(at a time of day that doesn't tint the colors quite so much)
