I'm so furious.
Had my gate open for a friend. 2 other people joined. One name I didn't recognize, but assumed it was a goodjer.
I clearly have fences around my rocks at the corners, so that I can hit them 8 times. I crafted and spent time doing this. I destroyed one rock that was in a different place and got 2 rocks within sight of each other, which I f*cking loved for my daily gathering tasks.
THEY BROKE BOTH OF MY ROCKS.
How the f*ck does Nintendo even let this happen? If someone isn't "best friend" they shouldn't be able to pull out a shovel on your island?
I'm ready to never open my gate again. Rocks are random placed, there's no way in hell I get them anywhere as good a spot. And no way to undo it.
Yikes, sorry that happened. You are not supposed to be able pull out your shovel unless you are best friends. Glitch?
That sounds like a crappy glitch. Do you need any stuff that rocks drop for your active missions?
I have been using the dodo code so I can control who is invited.
Sorry that sucks. I was under the impression that only best friends can use tools too.
Yesterday I was slightly annoyed since someone that I didn't recognize came in and jumped across the river without saying anything. I didn't have a pole yet so I couldn't see what they were doing and they left a note on the bulletin board saying thanks for the fruit. I'm totally fine with giving people fruit but ask first please..
Alright, so I actually got my gate open to my friends list now. Yukihama is accepting visitors! I left some pears out by my plaza, you are welcome to take some if you need them.
Just been enjoying having a game to poke around in without any stress about needing to accomplish something. Wish I was better/more creative with the custom designs.
Neighbor just ran up to me and taught me reactions!
So cool. 4 to start, and the one neighbor said the others should teach me some too.
Nice! I was just chatting with Slytin earlier when they visited that I wished there was some emote system. The chat system is extremely cumbersome with just the on-screen keyboard...
Anyone figured out how your neighbour's tents upgrade to houses? Both mine have but a couple friends haven't had theirs do it yet.
I haven't played a lot overall, just a little each day, but I did get Nook to upgrade my house from the tent and it was ready yesterday. Then this afternoon I log in for a bit and both neighbors had upgraded their tents to houses. I'm thinking that either it's a set number of played days, or the neighbors start upgrading right after you do.
Today I managed to get the 5000 nook miles for the pockets expansion. Yay!! I also took the idea that someone had here of crafting and carrying around the workbench, so I'm really liking being able to craft on the go whenever one of my flimsy tools breaks.
Choosing the map vaguely reminded me of choosing the SNES SimCity map
Absolutely loving the game so far.
I was able to visit Tuffalo's & Nimcosi's islands today. Shared some fruit and they shared some with me as well.
I don't know why anyone would either destroy something on an island they're visiting or strip the fruit trees or any other resources; if it's not your island, show some manners!
Day 5 just beginning and my museum and shop are open, and I just got the recipe for a bridge. Finally getting some rocks back too after a friend accidentally smashed mine in the first couple days.
Don't forget to post sale prices for turnips so we can all make big $$$.
Schools aren't closed in Australia yet so I've got a kid free day of bug collecting and fishing ahead of me.
Is there any reason to have regular trees rather than all/mostly fruit trees?

There's still a random item that falls from trees every day. And some 100 bell coins too. I'm not sure on the counts. But those also fall from pine trees too.
In the old games I'd go like 80-90% fruit and a couple rows of pine at the top. Makes it easier to get drops every day that you play.
I thought they had fixed it with the non-fruit trees giving wood, soft, and hard crafting materials. But the fruit trees give those too. So as long as nothing changed on the free item every day, no non-fruit non-pine trees needed.
Thanks. Let the trees shake with fear. I am the lumberjack.
My fruit trees look like the regular trees. Is there a way to tell the difference without digging them up?
I went to a Nook island tonight and found it full of bamboo instead of normal trees. I have not seen anything use bamboo yet though. I brought one full tree and several shoots back and planted them. Interested to see what happens.
Lucky you. I got a bamboo recipe from a bottle that needs 6 something I've never seen.
If you do the 2000 point Nook Miles trip 5 times or so, you should run into that particular island. I've done it 8-10 times and hit that island twice. Got a bunch of bamboo shoots to plant and lots of bamboo to store and sell off.
This morning I finally managed to get enough donations for Blathers the owl, and also enough nook miles to buy the Pretty Good Tools recipe! I still don't have enough iron for Nook and am out of generous rocks at the moment, so that little quest will likely continue tomorrow. I'm holding off on crafting anything that uses iron until I have enough for Nook.
I've also pulled up all the weeds in the parts of my island that are accessible. There are still areas up on cliffs that I can't get to with my current equipment, unless there is a vaulting pole technique that has eluded me, so I figure it will open up later after I've progressed.
I've gotten stung by wasps numerous times now and have stopped bothering with medicine until after I feel done shaking trees. Talked to my neighbors while running around with "wasp face" and one gave me some medicine and the other gave me a recipe for medicine!
I have started clearing room for my fruit orchard. Half of me want aesthetics and the other have wants maximum fruit production. I will try temporarily moving my grown orange trees tonight to see how it feels.

Ha! Going to have to do this next time.
I started running into Nook's tent to get away from the wasps, will have to let them sting me once and see what my villagers say.
Got the store and museum up today and now Nook wants me to build a bridge. Doesn't look too difficult so far.
I would be willing to give/sell you some bamboo if you wanted some Stele. Let me know and we can work something out.
Good info on wasps and medicine! I checked in on my island this morning. All my new trees are starting to get there. The new shop showed up which is neat and the museum is now under construction! I'm having a blast with the game, and I like having to wait till the next day for stuff to progress. There's plenty to work on each day. This is day 3 for me. Got the 2nd tier house which is nice and roomy although I don't quite have the money to pay that one off just yet. Looking forward to playing a bunch this afternoon. Goal is to pay off that house improvement!
