Thanks!

Another quick question: do we need to set up all future villager houses (like with the first 3 villagers) or do they just move in normally?

You need to buy the plots from Nook for 10k each and place them. Villagers won't randomly move to your island unless you have an open plot.

Let this be a warning for everyone who uses MeteoNook to figure out your weather seed -- write it down somewhere else once you find it! Don't be an idiot like me and clear your cache, thus losing your weather data in the process.

When I talk to my first 2 villagers, I have the option to give them gifts, but not with the others. Is this normal? Am I supposed to give them something in particular? I'm confused

You have the option to give gifts to villagers once you've reached a certain level of friendship with them. Here's a guide.

i did the campsite method and i finally found the villager that i wanted. my island is full so one of the villagers is currently in boxes. and here is my question: if i'm in the future can i get back to today's date without having the said villager voided? or should wait until someone comes to pick them up and then i can get back in time?

If you don't want the villager to be voided, you'll have to wait until someone adopts them. TTing to any different day (whether forwards or backwards), will count as a "new day" and will move the villager out.

Can we place villager houses on higher terrain? I don't have any ramps yet if that makes a difference.

You can place a villager's house on higher terrain if you have a way to get up there (a ladder works) and there is enough space for the house.

Ok so every where I look, no article mentions the third "update" to nooks cranny where they start selling a piece of furniture on that empty space by the entrance. It just appeared in my game one day and it only seems to rotate between 3 or 4 items. I was just wondering if the items ever change /:

That's not an upgrade. Nooks sells seasonal items in the summer and winter and you only get the 1 variant of that item.

Can we invite villagers to Photopia without amiibo? I thought we could invite our own villagers but I can't find that option anywhere. :c

Yes. When you open up the menu to place furniture, villagers are on the rightmost tab.

I can't believe I missed that, thank you!

Thank you!! I could not find any information about it lol

How do people make those style collage things? Those pictures where there's a picture of your rep in the middle and then around it there's all the clothing items they're wearing.

If we're thinking of the same thing, that picture is just a screenshot of the in-game screen when you switch clothes using a dresser. You just use a dresser-type item, confirm your outfit, and then that collage appears for a second for you to screenshot.

So I have a kind of difficult question to answer.
If you create a save file, add another villager resident to the save, then delete the Resident Representative, what will happen? Will the other Villager become the Resident Representative, or will the entire save just erase?
