If you mean stags, when you see it, only move gingerly when it moves. If it stops moving, you stop moving. I've been helping my gf get stuff and this was how I got the golden stag and the horned hercules. Oh yeah, the giraffe one, too. Super slow walking and stopping. You can do it!

Anyone who claims to have caught a giant trevally, you are a liar, I do not believe you.

The thing apparently only sells for 4500 yet I've caught like, a bunch of sharks and a blue marlin, and some other rare stuff without seeing the dang thing. (I'm aware its a large shadow while some other stuff is xl or finned)

Beetles are a pain! I swear I've had some fly when I was both too far, and also walking slowly. Doesn't help there's so many of them, I nearly didn't catch one I was missing cause I thought it was one I caught previously.

ive caught 3

id like a 4th so i could have the model made like i did with the marlin but w/e sharks come first

If you are looking for stags use a nook island ticket and hope you get the spiral river map; cut all the trees but the palm ones and it’s easy stag collecting just running back and forth

The first one I caught I accidentally released before I even made it off the pier. I wanted to die.

The vampire squid lights up so cool, but I wish it didn’t seem to only do that at night.

Also is there any indication so far (like via datamining) that sea creatures will ever get models? Just wondering if I should dump my extras of the cool sea creatures or not...

I have a noob question about the move-out/move-in process. I have 10 villagers, and I approved Gruff to move out today. Is it correct that he'll be in boxes tomorrow, and his plot will be empty on Wednesday? What's my window for recruiting a new villager from a mystery island? (My one previous move-out was replaced automatically, so I must have missed the window.) In case it matters, Cally is in my campsite today, but I'm not interested in her. I would rather do some NMT tripping to see who else I can find.

Yes, you have the timeline correct. Wednesday is the day that villagers will be on NMT Islands and you have from Wednesday 5AM to 4:59AM Thursday to fill the plot - whether that is by NMT Island or talking to a villager in boxes on someone else’s island.

There is such a thing as too many flowers, though. I had so many, it caused glowholes to stop spawning. You also run the risk of not having space to drop items, since drops only check for free squares in a 3x3 space before failing to drop and/or disappearing forever.

I had a balloon present drop into a field of ferally grown flowers and it vanished and I was so angry.

i will never give up. i just spent a few hours uprooting all my non-hybrids aside from the ones i need for blue roses and green mums, neither of which i have yet.

i am also gonna start fencing in areas with flowers so they can't get out of hand ever again, that was a fuckin nightmare. 8 goddamn shovels i blew through.

I will trade you a Green Mum for cloning purposes for a Purple Windflower or a Purple Pansy.

I am to the last step of Blue Rose breeding - having 3 of the special reds required, but it's been raining all week and I have the correct Red Windflowers and the correct Red Pansies, but purples will simply NOT grow.

I have decent enough luck with cloning tho, so maybe if I get ONE, I can clone more.

I think rainwater counts the same as you watering yourself, so a visiting watering still increases the chance of breeding.

man i'll give you like 10 purple pansies for free, i have so goddamn many of those things. pansies are my native flowers and i got three different blue pansy islands, so i've grown a shitload of purples now.

i don't have purple windflowers yet though, i am still working on those.

i had to restart the whole process this morning because things got so out of control that i lost track of which roses were which :negative:

this time they are separated out onto the third level of my island by themselves so that doesn't happen again.

Since the swimming update, people have been able to circumvent airport barriers by jumping off the dock. It doesn't matter on my island, but if you have turnips laying around or rare hybrids you don't want people messing with, you're going to have to reassess your island's security.

Customizing a tool resets the durability. I put a DIY station near where I was working on my field and would periodically refresh the tools. You can also use a transparent custom design to fence in flowers without having a fence - that's what I'm going to need to do in my villager yards.

The visitor watering flag(s) and basic “has been watered today” flag are kept track of separately. Also basic watering is the same regardless of whether it’s from a watering can or rain.

“Dig” as in slang for “enjoy” or “appreciate”. It’s in your pockets.

Yes. Flowers will clone themselves if there's no breeding partner. Though you might want to get someone else to come water it for you to get at least a 25% chance of replication. Watering one lone flower on your own is a 5% chance, or about once every 20 days.
