Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

[Druidsleep]

When you go to the island, you need to go into decorate mode, then storage and one of the options is villagers. You can invite from there

Yeh now I'll get a Francine photo!!!

TIL that you have to tell Mabel to put your designs on the back wall. I thought they would just show up there once you put them in the kiosk. So here I was wondering how many more designs I had to add before they would start showing up when all I had to do was ask.

Today I learned that Flick will pay you 90.000 bells for 30 giant water bug, which can be grinded in like 5 minutes on a river mystery island.

Just found out flower stems sell for the same amount as fully bloomed flowers at Nook's! So if you want a bit of extra bells, you can pick the flowers and sell those and the stems rather than just the whole flower.

Just clicked on my blinds and they open and close.

Didn't know that.

Not today, but I found out couple weeks ago you can cancel the “Show Off” animation for a bug or fish if you press another button (I usually press ‘b’)

I learned yesterday when I found a lost item that you could ‘investigate’ it, in my case it was a book my jock lost as the game described it as warped, dunno if this works for other lost items

today i learned that the frogs walk in the rain without an umbrella and/or raincoat, unlike other villagers! i thought that was such a cute little detail i can't remember if it was like that in the previous games

edit: apparently it was! can't believe i never noticed

I remember them doing that in ACGC. It was cute.

If your snack/drink machines are situated where you can rise above them (like on a different level looking down), at night the reflections reveal the machine is smeared like it has fingerprints all over it and has never been cleaned

The fountain changes on the hour. When I first saw this, I thought that it was a glitch. When the bells are ringing to mark the hours changing the fountain has a bigger stream of water. It only lasts for as long as the clock's chimes do.

TIL that my water fountain shoots a different pattern of water when the town hall clock strikes on the hour!

i was today’s year old when i found out that using the cleanup service within the construction app gets rids of trees for you automatically!

Whaaaaaat, I've been grinding away eating & digging to clear the area first God damn it!

Today I learnt that villagers invited to your campsite through an Amiibo have a predetermined DIY they’ll ask for when they visit. I tried to cheat the system to find a garden bench. But nope, they’ll request the same item every time even if you reset. They’ll also ask for the same item if they leave without you completing the request and you invite them back on another day. There was no way getting round Violet - she wanted her golden plate set!

That can't be true. I've invited in amiibo villagers, got them to request a DIY, didn't complete it, asked them in another day and they asked for a different DIY.

You're both right, but I'm not sure of what determines it. When I invited an amiibo villager and couldn't do their recipe, I invited them back in the next day and they still had the same quest. Maybe it changes when there's a day inbetween? For me it changed after using another amiibo.

It could just be a random RNG thing.

Today i learned i have way to many flowers...

 

[BeezyBee]

I learned that you could buy flooring and wallpaper at Nook's Cranny all along...brb crying in a corner.

 

[Romaki]

Today I learned that cockroaches are still a thing.

You can fall into a hole you dug! I was trying to hit one of my rocks and ended up falling into the hole behind me. Did I just have bad luck that day? Does luck still exist in ACNH?

 

[RhinoK]

That the spotlight item in Nook's Cranny as a black nametag, instead of white!

I'm sure feng shui is still a feature in the game, so I'm gonna guess yes!
