Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

Last night I learned Wisp and Celeste can spawn at the same night. (wish I would have known that earlier)
 
Today I Learned that now when we visit villagers houses, sometimes they’ll ask if there’s anything I like and let me buy it!! This reminds me a bit of the flea market in WW (possibly NL too, I forget??) and I love it so much! When did this even start - with the 2.0 update or after?! Love it!
That’s a thing? That’s so cool. It must have been post update. I missed the flea market. The only annoying thing about it was villagers randomly coming into your house when you’re trying to decorate. Otherwise, it was a great feature!!
 
I learned that if you transfer your character from your main switch to the 2nd switch to a new island they still keep all the progress of the Happy Home Paradise DLC.
 
If you have a villager that you invited to the resort with Souvenir Cookies and they are moving out on your island you cannot visit their home at the resort:

Cherry blossom is officially here and I just learned that Money Trees also turn to pink. I never happened to grow money trees during this season so I never knew. I've just always assumed that they were green similar to fruit trees.
 
So if you didn't finish working on a Vacation Home at Happy Home Paradise and you saved your game, you can actually come back and finish it. Which means that when you arrive at the Resort you will be automatically be put into your work outfit and resume back to working on the Vacation home for the villager.
 
So I learned about after restarting several times on the 2nd island that there is a pattern villager personality you get at the beginning. So if you want to find specific villagers this is going to be helpful. I learned the starter villagers you get always start with Jock and Sisterly, the 3 starter homes are Lazy, Peppy, and Normal, and lastly the 6th villager to move in from the campsite is smug and sometimes snooty. I should note that whoever you get will always stay in this case I got Shep which I already had him on Twilight before it was deleted and I got his photo so I wasn't too keen.

Then of course you have the last 4 plots you can put down when you want to start villager hunting. It makes it easier to plan out when you want to villager hunt and when to get that one villager you still want to find. One last thing I learned that you can use your nook mile tickets by day one when the airport opens, so I was able to use 10 nmts I sent over to the new user. You can pick out 3 villagers you want before you place down their home plots. Just thought I would put this out there for those who still are trying to look for villagers that are from the personality you are looking for.
 
This is probably going to sound really dumb, but I just realized that there’s a bridge and incline limit on your island. Before it was 8, and now they raised it up to 10 of each. I’m pulling my hair out right now because I started re-terraforming my island around my new ideal build and it’s not going to work because I’m 2 inclines and 2 bridges over. It can easily be redone but I’m annoyed because it makes a few parts of my build not really work. I wish the limit was a bit higher. I wonder what the reason is for having a limit? Does it take too much data, or they just don’t want islands to look ridiculous if someone goes overboard?
 
Do you know how the animal resident's name bubbles are based on their color?
Like Marshal's here for example.

Well, I just realize ours (when talking to a player character in a dream address) is based on the color of our passport.
(mines for example)

I learned today that Timmy and Tommy don't have stalker 'they about to steal' vibes when you are in their store when your island gates are open.

Maybe i should have my gates open more often even if no one is visiting, just so I can shop in peace. XD
oh yeah, this one's probably so they don't have a hard time deciding on who to follow when multiple players are inside x)
 
Just found out that if you have a additional user living on your island you can get both paintings/statues from Redd at Harv's Island.
 
Today, I learned that villagers will sing their song according to whatever stereo you have playing outside, regardless of where it’s placed. I just put a stereo outside yesterday, and before that villgers always sang that random high-pitched song. I always thought that they would only sing a song if they were close to, or next to, a stereo. But I placed a stereo way out on my beach playing K.K. Lament, and my villagers all the way over at my town square were singing it. I am a bit relieved because I was tired of hearing that one song they always sing, lol.
 
If you ask to move a villager’s home and they’re sick, Tom Nook will tell you that they haven’t been feeling the best and it isn’t a good time to ask them. You have to give them medicine for them to feel better before they agree. It makes me respect Tom Nook a bit more, haha
Also if you have any visitors on your island the villager who is "sick" will put out a warning saying "I am not allowing visitors at this point" if they try to enter their home.
