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

I restarted my island. Tom Nook was talking about seeing Redd walking around and I didnt talk to Redd. A new day already started and I havent seen Redd since... Was I supposed to talk to Redd while he was walking around that day? will he come back?
I believe he should be wondering about somewhere.
I decided once that I liked him wondering my island so I ignored him and he was on my island every single day after that.
 
He'll come back in a week or two. If you don't want to wait that long, you can TT back to the day he was on your island and he should be there.

I don't remember the date he came the first time, so I'll just wait. Thanks for the reply!
 
an villager asked to move out today when can I go to someone else’s island and ask an new villager to move in?
Does my villager need to be in boxes too?

if they asked to move today, your villager will be in boxes tomorrow, and the day after that you'll have the empty plot and that's when you can go and ask someone else to move in!
 
I want to reset, I havent played since last year and I want a new start now that I'm finally going to have a lot of free time. I have like 9m bells, how do I go about transferring this to my next island? Do i need to find someone else to hold on to it?

yes you do! But there should be a lot of people happy to help on here (incl. me if needed)

Although new leaf had a way of selling your town once the welcome amiibo update came out, new horizons sadly has no such feature.

If you want to keep hold of any of your stuff, you have to drop it off with someone else and come collect it later.

If you dont know anyone who would hold the stuff you want to keep, there are lots of lovely people here who will

Awww you just beat me to it!
That will teach me to ramble
 
I was under the impression that gold roses would only spawn when a black rose was watered by a golden watering can. When I was making my rounds today, though, I noticed some gold rose buds next to a gold rose. I definitely didn't water any plants yesterday, although it did rain. I've actually never had this happen to me before. Is it possible (albeit rare) for gold roses to duplicate in the rain? (for reference: This is my own island on my own Switch; no one else touches it. I was busy irl yesterday and I literally only played long enough to find Daisy Mae to buy turnips.)

When you water a black rose with a gold watering can, it sets a gold rose "flag" that remains on it until it produces a gold rose offspring. So you don't have to water a black rose every day with the gold watering can to produce a gold rose; you just have to water it once with the gold can and then water it regularly (or have rain) after that until you get a gold rose. So that's probably what happened to you. Once a black rose produces a gold rose, you have to water it with the golden can again if you want another gold rose from it.

Here's a guide that explains this in depth: https://aiterusawato.github.io/satogu/acnh/flowers/advanced.html

Ah that might explain it then. I had watered that black rose to make a new gold rose and then just forgot about doing it for a few days when there was rain. I didn't realize the flag stayed in place until the gold rose spawned; I assumed that it was reset at the start of a new day like all the other flower watering flags. Thanks for the info!
 
I remember seeing a picture on this forum that showed a villager house interior model, highlighting which items could be replaced/moved and which would always remain.

Does anyone know where they got that from?

Do you mean images like the one on the right?

Those are from this site, and you'll find a list of all items per interior category in this spreadsheet. As for which items are permanent and which are not: I'm pretty sure all of the items you see can be replaced except for wall and carpet items, as long as the gifted item has the right category. ;)

Yes, that's the one! That's even better, actually, considering how many items I'd like to replace. Thanks!
 
Any mayor updates after mayday?

I’ve been completely ignoring my game.
Then the TBT world championship happened, and I ignored some more. I started playing again, but since I always time travel. I don’t know if I’m missing anything.
 
So far, I've yet to be able to breed pink roses with pink roses. From what I remember, this was possible in ACNL to multiply hybrids... am I just unlucky so far or is it actually not possible?
They will muliply on there own if you water them i played ACNL too and i was confused!

There appears to be items that have variations... but I can't customise them with my customisation kit (at the moment).

Is there any way I can unlock this, or do you just use customisation kits for furniture you've crafted?
just what has been crafted @McRibbie
 
Do acnh amiibo coins work?

If you gift a villager wallpaper or flooring can they put it in their house? Or are they stuck with the ones they have
 
Does anyone know if you give a villager a nuptial doorplate, do they only display it in June?
