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

Hey All!

So, I'm slowly trying to get myself back into working on my island. Something that I'd like a bit more clarification on, when you place a path, if you download and replace the path (with a new path, with a similar design style, but different season), would it replace the path that's already laid down?

Or, is there an easier way to replace your paths (when it comes to different seasons (eg: spring or winter)?
It would!

If you save a new custom design over another it does replace any already laid down path using the old pattern with the new.
 
I have a quick question about Pocket Camp items. If you restart your island you're still able to order them on the new island right? I think they're tied to Nintendo account but I'm not 100% sure.

I found out when I reset: yes you can.

I am so confused and can't fimd any answers online!

Tucker is crafting at home and he won't guve me the DIY ! I keep talking to him and having a normal conversation where he doesn't even mwntion the fact that he is crafting.

Has this happened to anu of you? I have seen a couple threads on reddit about it but no one knew the reason behind it
 
So, when I am dreaming, how do I pick up the town's custom designs?

Edit, NVM: I got it.

I hope someone can answer this question for me because I'm very frustrated right now.

For 2 days, I've been villager hunting for my first original Peppy plot. I've already completed the other two plots so ONLY Peppies can spawn on Nook islands (1/53 odds). I've used over 150 NMT and my villager did not show up. Savescumming the plot for hours has not produced the villager I want either. My question is, Is the first original Peppy plot affected by the move-in queue? I've only travelled to one island so far. I'd hate to think I may have ruined my chances for an early dreamie.

I did eventually get Merry through save scumming the Peppy plot but it took a ridiculously long time.

I recently uploaded my first dream, and I've read you can see how many visitors you've had by checking your passport in the Nintendo Online app. Mine doesn't show this, though, even though I'm looking in the right place (recent dreams etc.) It shows my island name and "Dream updated: 5 day(s) ago". The text "Number of visitors your dream has had" isn't there at all.

Is this still a thing? Am I doing something wrong? Please help. Thank you :)

I believe you're in the right place, but you have to click on your island name. If you click on your island name it should bring up another box that shows your dream address and number of visits. Hope that works for you! 😊

Hey, thanks for responding so fast! Unfortunately that doesn't work either: again, it shows when I uploaded the dream, but nothing about visitors. :(

ETA: Before anyone asks, yes I did make the dream public when I uploaded it!

I will visit your dream address when I get home and let you know when I do. Unfortunately won’t be home for a few hours. Maybe if I go visit it will show up for you.

This is what mine shows when I go into it

If you're a fan of the Aliens movies - and if you have time of course - you might enjoy looking around (including inside residents' houses). The whole island is a tribute to the Aliens series.

I'll check again in a few hours and see if I have the visitor info yet. Thank you so much!

Your welcome, walking around your island now. I love that you have mostly penguin villagers. I had Serenity as an all penguin villager for awhile.

Yeah, penguins seemed appropriate for an island that's supposed to be in Antarctica. I couldn't dump Olaf, though; he's the first villager I ever invited to live there and I love him.

In other news, you made it work! It now says I have had 1 visitor. Thank you so much for your help!!

That’s great so glad it worked . Your welcome.
 
I had a friend recently restart their island and now their old profile is stuck in my Best Friends app list. I looked up this issue and apparently there's no way to remove the old profile, even if you delete and readd them on the Switch. Has this been fixed by now, or are we stuck with duplicate profiles?
 
Question about TT! If you TT within the same day, does it count as traveling a day?

nope! as long as you don't move beyond 5am when the animal crossing new day happens, you can move around freely within the day of 5:01am to 4:49am (set the clock back 12 hours, revisit a time you missed with shooting stars, etc.) and the game will see it as the same day.

TYSM! :D
 
When do orders from the resident services machine and/or Wendell arrive? Is it only once a day at the beginning of a new day or is it like NL where there are two mail deliveries a day? I'm confused rn

They come in the mail the next day, and you only get mail once a day in New Horizons. c:
 
Do old villagers come visit The Roost (without an Amiibo)? Or is it just special characters & villagers that live on the island that visit?
