Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

[MrPicard]

i always noticed that everything got darker when the rain or snow made it wet, but i never realized that holding an umbrella actually keeps your character dry lol

Wait what? TIL... lol.

Today I learned that you cannot customize the rim part of the simple panel... Which I know is something silly but it's frustrating for me! because I transferred stuff over from my previous catalog to my new island when I restarted, and I was running with the assumption that just taking one simple panel over would let me be able to access all the other rim color variants haha! I guess not.

today i learnt that the tools with designs that are sold at nook’s (outdoorsy, colourful, etc) can be customized.

I learned you can "scare" away cherry blossom petals if you miss with the net. Makes you wonder if they're actually sentient.

 

[Dunquixote]

I learned this awhile ago (not necessarily today but fairly recently) that we can order more yule logs.

I'm well aware of how incredibly dumb this is, but somehow despite playing since launch, I've only just realised that you can 'release' manila clams back into the holes you dig them out of. I guess I just always filled in the holes so fast that it never occurred to me! Whenever I was looking for Gulliver's communicator parts, I'd always get annoyed when I dug up a clam instead, because then I had to make another trip to the store just to sell them. I even tried several times to release them into the sea (I also tried the trash, don't judge me) but for some reason I never thought to just throw them back from where they came!

probably everyone knows about this since ages ago...but today i've learnt that villagers have their own unique taste that is not random and that it goes by color and categories and that's why sometimes they wear something i gift them all the time, because it matches their taste! im so happy about this little detail, i decided to pay attention to that and try to gift them things they love from now on! ^^

Yeah I learned about that last year and it makes me SO mad that Gold Tools cannot be customized!

Til the Sanrio clothes have a slightly different sound when you put them on!

 

[Bluebellie]

I zoomed in on a window and I noticed there were raindrops on the glass. It was a rainy day today in my island. Such a small detail. I really loved it.

 

[Bloodflowers]

I've played since launch but TIL we could customise the Mom's items.

 

[Shellzilla_515]

I recently learned that if Mable is partially obstructing the dressing room and you want to check out additional clothing items, she will move out of the way.

 

[Rosch]

I learned that only male villagers can send you art in mail.

 

[Bluebellie]

I just learned the skull wall glows in the dark. I just kept looking at it and was wondering why it was turning green.

 

[Imbri]

I'm not sure if it's really an "I learned something new" or not, but last night while listening to K.K. Slider, it looks like they revamped the animation. Has anyone else seen this?

This is maybe one of the few things the printed guide is still helpful for-- it shows you villagers' preferred colors in a grid sorted by animal type!

[zilong67]

TIL you could easily farm balloons by putting jail bars!
I've been running up and down the beaches for hours before

Someone on here said you can also just transfer a palm tree from the beach to the grass, but I have no idea if the tree would survive that.

I remember seeing someone do that in a tropical island build video on yt. You put down a sand path with the terraforming tool, and then place a palm tree on top.

I learned that you can remove the camera guide by pressing down on the right red joycon stick. It's super useful for taking nice pictures of my villagers in ACNH.

 

[PugLovex]
