Share Your Island Map

[Carina]

Starters: Plucky and Bud
Airport: yellow
Native fruit: apples

I chose this layout because I like the location of the resident service center and airport. Also, I'm very happy with my starting villagers.
As you can see, I've already prepared three new house spots (Apple, Drago and Gayle are moving in).

What are the chances that both of your starting villagers have unibrows?

my map! my starting villagers are Flip and Hazel and my native fruit are cherries - I might change buildings around still but this is a good start I think c:

Got peaches and I kinda like this map for now. Hopefully I don't regret it, this "tutorial" phase is ridiculously long.

Found my map twin! <3

Only bits that're different are the rocks and secret beach, lmaooo.

^__^ Blue airport and peaches!

my island...the only thing that i don't have is a pond on the main land

Here's my map. I really wanted the plaza to be as close to the river entrance on the side of town as possible. Learned that this almost never happens on the mirrored maps, and then this turned up defying everything I thought I knew on how far north the plaza can be. The back of the plaza would be 1 square into the river if it went straight to the ocean.

Cherries and Yellow colour, which is my 2nd choice of fruit, and first choice of colour too.
As a bonus I also got my preferred location for the airport - central. And 2 villagers that I liked and haven't had before.

Only thing I can fault this from my dream island was I wanted the secret beach to be in a corner. But that was a minor preference.

I decided on this map! Still unsure about it. I am liking my yellow airport & native oranges though!

I reset for two hours and ended up going with this. I'm still not totally onboard with the dual south rivers, but every map has its downsides and this came pretty close to ticking all the boxes for me. The town plaza and airport are almost exactly where I wanted them, and I got my preference of native fruit (oranges). I even started with a villager I like (Agnes). I'll have to be doing some extensive terraforming later to widen up the narrow tracts of land close to the ocean, but all in all I'm pretty happy with it.

Pretty much everything I've placed so far is in a temporary spot until I unlock terraforming.

I've got Coco moving in tomorrow. <3

I got cherries as my native fruit, a green airport, and Phoebe, Tybalt as my starters.

I reset after playing that last map for about an hour. It took me 7 resets and I settled on this map. I love it. The minute I stepped off the plane, I knew it was the map I'm sticking with.

My native fruit is peaches and I don't know what color my airport is, I think it's red or blue. One of those. I didn't pay attention. But I'm very satisfied with this map. I love the shape of the river.

Edit: My airport is red. The placement of the villagers houses aren't permanent. They will be moved once I get the option to do so. I'm not sure if I'm going to move my house or not. I'll have to see.

Peaches are my fruit. Airport is green, but no can do. I won't reset this game because of that. This is more fun this way.

My first ac game I haven’t had to reset! Couldn’t be happier

I got peaches and a blue airport. Also my own mini island!

Oh wow almost identical to my map:


BTW you see that small "C" curve at the bottom of the river? I found out it's short enough for my villager to hop over the river! I thought I was stuck on the other side at first and was about to make a thread but figured it out XD

Anyways, not very spacey, but lot's of secret spots are cool! Plus pathway between the two right cliffs are pretty neat! Gonna relocate my tent to the small island in the middle when I get the chance!

 

[Splinter]

I went with this one:

I got Pears as usual, which is what I wanted, cos I hate them.

I will replace them with higher value more colourful fruits.

That also sounds like a metaphor for what I'm planning to do with my starting villagers too.

This is mine!

Day 2. Didn't have to reset. The strip north of resident services is getting heavily landscaped eventually, so keeping that area clear.

I'd love to share a pic of my island map but after I take the screenshot, I have no idea how you share it on here. Is it easy? Would someone mind telling me how you do it please, I'd appreciate it a lot

 

[HappyTails]

@Bentore: We have the exact same island layout. XD

@kindakooky: after you take a screenshot you can save it to Twitter or Facebook, then either share it directly from there with the image link.

Here's my map:

The planned building is Nook's Cranny. I just went with the first map that had apples and the residential area in the middle. There are some awkward corners, but I like how it looks overall. I didn't notice that the bright green area is the upper area, so I'm very happy I got one that's as uniform as it is.

You can either get the screenshot from your microSD to your computer, or more easily you can just go to your gallery and post them to either Twitter or Facebook. If you don't have one, just make a private throwaway Twitter account where you can post your screenshots to and keep track of them. On Twitter you can just open a picture and save it to your computer.

Orange Airport with Oranges.

 

[HoennMaster]

Took me a little bit of resetting, but finally got the map I wanted. Eventually I will move my house onto the river island and place Molly and Poppy with me. Apples is native Fruit. Original villagers are Ursula and Sheldon. Wanted Blue and Green airport but got Orange, but ultimately not a huge deal.

Only thing I don't really care for is the plaza being so close to the airport and the beach in general, but considering the type of map I wanted, it was to be expected I suppose. I'm sure once I am able to fully explore the island I won't even think about it.
