Thank you so much for answering my question.

Oh I realized that technically there wont be a plot tomorrow since I have 10 villagers now. I will only catch voided villagets starting tomorrow. Is that right? Thanks

Got Stitches on my campsite 1 day after I accepted Mint and he happens to be my SO dreamie, if I get bree out, would I be able to travel backwards and get to see Stitches again? So I can hold him for him, it actually happenned the same for my SO when he got Rosie to move in so he could pass her to me and I feel guilty for it.
I think I know the answer but I wanted a miracle to happen xD

I've heard of people catching voided villagers when they have someone in boxes, so better safe than sorry.

Nope, he won't be there if you were to travel back. I'm sorry. Though you could probably try and find him again my campsite resetting, but that could take a while.

I've got a question about Feng Shui, which rooms can you do it in? I've looked it up and got a lot of contradicting information, and I want to know for sure before I put in orders for furniture.

Thank you, even if it takes a while my SO needs to send some villagers out so he can get on of each personality and his dreamies(one left and it was my fault), so basically he needs to send Olaf out but he is on his town since the beginning :s
 
So I've looked it up, and gotten mixed answers: Do campsite villagers move in 1-3 days after accepting your invitation, or do they move in only after two days? I've had a camper move in before, but I don't remember how long he took.
I'm expecting Lolly. She's adorable. :3 I got her to agree to move in yesterday. I tried plot resetting earlier a few times, but no plots appeared. So she'll probably come tomorrow, right? Just want to make sure before I waste any more time trying to get her today.
 
If her plot isn't appearing she's not coming in for today, so yeah try tomorrow.

Campsite villagers take 2 days to move in, so Lolly should be putting her plot down tomorrow.

They maaaay take a few days longer if someone else is moving out of your town around the same time they're supposed to move in, though.
 
I asked one question about this before, but I did some reading on the subject and I'm looking for clarification, so here's a few more questions:

-My original question was does grass wear appear if one TTs backwards?

-Does saving and quitting often contribute to grass wear?

-Does playing as multiple characters in one day contribute to grass wear?

-Does grass wear appear over saving/quitting, or does it only appear once the day has changed?

Thank you! When I googled some things were unclear, so maybe I wasn't looking in the right places.
 
How does the game decide where to put villager house plots? I'm planting a LOT of trees and so far they've avoided all of them, and my huge orchard. Do villagers avoid placing their homes on trees/flower patches?
 
If you were going to sleep for the day you would TT to sometime after 6am the same day, so the clock doesn't turn over.

Say you're on October 2nd, and if you're trying to stay on October 2nd, you won't go before 6am October 2nd or past 5:59am October 3rd.

EDIT: Nevermind on my question, she will accept a new bed!

Thank you! :) I have another question regarding TTing backwards and move-ins. So I had to move forward in time to get rid of one of my villagers and I'm going to pick up a villager today. When my new villager moves in, can I TT back in time to the correct time without losing them?
 
@molas: As far as I'm aware, TTing backwards would count as a new day, so yes, it will appear. Grass wear will happen if any character (excepting villagers) walk on grass, and it'll start showing after around a week, I think. Saving and quitting doesn't affect it, only whether you walk on it or not on that day.

If you want to prevent grass wear, do not run at all cost. I've had a few friends over who ran around my town, and a week later some medium-large patches showed up x_x vice versa if you want grass wear!

@Crucifigo: Your map has sweet spots where a villager will most likely place their house there. If you try plot-resetting and they show up on certain places multiple times, then that's the sweet spot.

You're probably lucky since I've heard the opposite happen to other players lol. I had a villager move on top of my perfect peaches, getting rid of it in the process :( They only places they avoid is where a PWP is placed, but that doesn't stop them from placing it near/next to a PWP I think.

It's random. Villagers can place their homes on top of trees and flowers and paths. They only thing that will prevent them are PWP projects and rocks.
This is why many people plot reset.

i am pretty sure that none of those EXCEPT multiple characters contribute to grass wear. if you play with more than one chara, you're still walking on grass for an amount of time. d:

if youre concerned about grasswear, just don't run or walk on places that you want grass, at all. never. and if you want to regrow patches, you can TT ahead and it'll grow back. keep in mind that certain areas in your town have permanent dirt patches which will never grow grass (why they did this, i'll never understand).
 
Thank you guys for the answers! What I'm trying to do ultimately is get my natural paths faster, and what I'm gathering is maybe playing on multiple characters and running over the paths more will help?

Once you have your new villager's plot set, you can safely TT backwards any amount of time, and it'll count as one day, and when you next load up they'll be in their house unpacking.
 
I have a small question: what's the worst that can happen to my town if I travel (only) one hour backwards? Due to winter time I'll be changing the time one hour in a few weeks, but I want to make sure nothing bad will happen to my town. So is it possible anything changes? Every tiny bit counts. :)
 
You won't see any changes, Barbara. As long as you do it in the middle of the day (don't do it near 12AM or 6AM!)

The only side effects I can think of is if you do it at 12PM, Reese may have a different turnip price. If you do it around 10AM, the shops may be closed when you set the time back. If you TT around 5PM, Pete may not have delivered your mail. Also, if you have any house-visits set up for a certain time with your villagers, you may end up missing them.

Otherwise, no big deal to TT back an hour
