Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

[Punchyleaf]

TIL That setting down custom paths is hard sometimes

 

[Le Ham]

Okay so this is the second thing that I unfortunately learned. This time, I discovered it while I was searching up animal crossing t-pose gifs. Don't ask me why. I'm gonna put it in a spoiler if you're that curious to know.

Spoiler

Apparently, every single villager's base model lacks clothing according to one image of a tweet. I don't think I'll unsee it now... Thanks, Google.

Hmm, I think you'd really like Clay's poster...

Today I learned Chester has teeth when he talks (lol)

 

[John Wick]

That the villager dialogue after two months isn't improving.

 

[Rubombee]

Today I learned the T. Rex skull is interactable when you press A.

All the fossil skulls are!

 

[zee=^w^=]

I learned that pressing ZR allows you to duplicate the displayed item on Harv's Island's wedding event. This makes farming heart crystals so much less tedious (instead of having to select chic/garden for every item).

 

[Bethboj]

I learned that if there’s a lost item somewhere on your island and you happen to talk to the owner before you are aware of it/pick it up, they will mention they’ve lost something and you can offer to look for it! Erik asked me to find his book today, which was just behind his house

 

[Coolio15]

Today I learned that Julia and Celia (New move-in to replace dear Ava) have almost the exact same house exteriors and I’m trying my best not to let it bug me because Celia is SOOOOO cute!!!

 

[Sharksheep]

Today I learn that there is movein queue and if you try to amiibo a villager that in the movein queue, it's not going to work.

Today I learned that color can keep you from getting the top house rating.

I missed out on the gold S rating for my house today because at least one area had furniture that didn't match a single color (that was the hint given to me in the letter--to make furniture one single color). I'm wondering if it was the ironwood chair holding a lamp in my bathroom. Everything in my bathroom is black and white except that chair. I customized it to oak so it has some white in it now. There was also one other chair of questionable color in my den/basement room that I customized to a more suitable color.

I learned that in the fish section of the museum, the first tank you see when you walk in, the border around it are actually chairs/something you can sit on. This whole time, I thought it was some sort of weird barrier...

 

[Ganucci]

Today I learned you can cast your fishing rod over fences. I'm guessing this only works for shorter ones, but I was pleasantly surprised I can now put fences along rivers.

 

[Shellzilla_515]

So I had two of my villagers sing and I noticed something. Usually, they sing along with the music, right? Apparently, if you take away the music player or turn off the music, they start singing a song that I'm pretty sure does not exist with the songs of K.K. To try and describe the way they're singing, they sing slowly and lasts somewhere around 20 seconds before it loops.

 

[R3i]

You can put items ontop of vending machines & fridges

 

[USN Peter]

Today, I have learned that the villagers take a photo with their phone if they see something interesting.

 

[-Blue-]

You can sit on the monkey bar furniture piece from the Nook Mile rewards.

 

[Madrox6]

TIL that Celeste recipes are based on the host's calendar - not your own. It makes sense now that I think about it, but I was hoping for the Cancer recipe that started dropping today. Does anyone know if the zodiac fragments are also based on the host's calendar, or should they be Cancer fragments? I can see it going either way since they spawn on my beach tomorrow - they aren't gifted on the host's island today

 

[ellienoise]

today I learned that if I don't want my flowers to grow like crazy and take over the town I can use an invisible pattern to surround them! Lifesaver!

 

[Jhine7]

Today I learned that it takes 880 iron nuggets to make all 8 robot heroes. Yikes! Good luck to me.

 

[Xara]

today i learned that you can’t reorganize your reactions like you could in new leaf lmao
