New Horizons F.A.Q. – Ask Questions Here!

[Sharksheep]

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?

From what I know, you can't delete the Resident Representative. If you want to change it, you'll have to restart your whole island.

I have Papi staying as a campsite villager and Chops moving into a new plot. Is it possible to swap the two and have Papi replace Chops?

I don't think so

EDIT: Do you have any other free plots? If not, do you still get the option to invite Papi into your island?

When did they remove the 20 star fragment per day limit? I just found 23 from my meteor shower yesterday

Can visitors get their own models from Flick or only your island residents? Can people invite villagers from my campsite?

Don’t know about Flick, but visitors can’t adopted your campers.

Unfortunately, Flick and C.J. only do business with the island's residents.

had a scroll through and nobody's asked this recently, sorry for being dumb:

how much have they changed the villagers-moving-out mechanism from nl? can they decide to move out and, if you don't talk to them, will they just up and move anyway? or do you have to tell them to leave during a thoughtbubble conversation?

also, can you get multiples of a villager's photo? i've got pictures for nearly all my islanders now, but no duplicates and idk if they've changed this or i'm unlucky

I’m not sure for the first question, but for the second question: yes. I’ve gotten about three pictures from a couple of my villagers. Here is a good thread to look at. @Sharksheep explains how you have give them gifts at least 64 times before they can give you another one.

This is probably a dumb question but .... I time traveled to September 1st so I could collect some pine cones and acorns. Isabelle made a morning announcement stating that things might be falling from trees and gave out the Tree's Bounty Little Tree recipe. However, when I shook trees, only twigs and bell coins came out. I tried about 20 trees. Is it not possible to get acorns and pine cones when time traveling?

It has to be the regular hardwood and cedar trees. The drop rates for pinecorns and acorns are terrible.

Thanks. Those were the trees I was trying. I guess I need to shake all 220 trees. Sigh.

Okay... so August 22 is my birthday, which happens to be the Bug-Off as well. Then August 23rd is fireworks day so K. K. is not present. He's not even around last Friday. When can I expect the K.K. Birthday?

Is the house expansion after making the room bigger ALWAYS a back room? I don't want a room in the back but it's the only option Tom Nook is giving me. Can we at least remove rooms later on? This is so annoying.

Unfortunately, there's no way to customize your house expansions. There's no way to choose which rooms you gain/expand, and there's no way to remove rooms.

I wasn't sure what search terms to use to optimize finding relevant results, so I'll ask my question.

Let's say that you had invited a villager to your campsite via their Amiibo. Then later on, you ask them to leave your island. Is it possible for that villager to show up naturally at your campsite as a random visitor before cycling through all other villagers of that personality type?

That invited villager won't show up naturally as a random visitor without fully cycling through that personality.

Here's a document all about the campsite mechanics.

Awesome, thanks for sharing that G-Doc with me! <3

Does anyone know if someone can come on your island and donate a fossil/fish/bug/art to blather's for your museum?
