Today I Learned: New Horizons Edition

[Romaki]

I thought it would be nice to make a thread in the same vein as the Things you didn't know about forever? thread in the New Leaf forum, where people share little tidbits and tricks that they learned about the game that other people might not know about yet!

Spoiler: For example, today I learned that the camera app allows you to even go further with the top view to the "behind a building" view.

today I learned that nooks cranny sells wallpaper and flooring and that that little symbol was telling me that
see: I'm a idiot

I just learned yesterday thanks to someone here that you can get posters of your current villagers if you invite them while at Harv's island. Thought you could only get posters from amiibo, so that was neat to find out!

don't feel bad. it took me quite awhile to figure that out too. I had no idea there was a second page to the cabinet stock

I didn't know there were filters on the camera in the game until recently. ><

I learnt that some villagers don’t like you watching them sing.

 

[Rosie Moon]

I learned that Zucker looks adorable in a pink jumper.

Really? That's cool to know ♪

Today I learned complaining to Isabelle about a resident's clothes won't remove the outfit from their wardrobe. It will simply make them change into their default outfit for a bit until they decide to change to something else in their wardrobe again.

I complained about Julian's clothes, went to his house, saw he had gone back to his default shirt, checked his wardrobe and saw the shirt I gave him was still there. Within the next hour he was wearing said shirt again as if nothing happened.

Don't know if it's a glitch but it sure does seem like a pointless feature.

Perhaps he's just acting like an ass. You know, the donkey.

Oh good to know. This gives Harv's island a use for me then since all I have are the amiibos for Wolf Link, Epona, and Inkwell.

Diana is doing the same thing, it really seems to be a useless feature .

PSA: use Harv's island to see how villagers would look in certain outfits before actually giving them the clothes!

I learned that if you double tap/mash the a button while crafting you craft faster

 

[Rubombee]

It's more "figured out" than learned, but besides being able to test out anything you want with interior design, Harv's island similarly allows you try on outfits without having to worry about where the clothes are :3 (e.g whether they're already used in wand outfits)

I'm pretty sure the feature only exists because of the multiplayer, because people can give villagers offensive designs to wear.

I learn that losing 500K in turnips is not the end of the world and that I'm proud of myself for sticking to failure as failure only breed success later down the line.

There are three alternate camera angles in the fossil exhibit beyond the one near the Palaeosaurus. There's a spot in front of the meteor impact model, and one behind the T-rex.

And the "human" spot in the lineup ^_^

Today I learned that you can still see shooting stars even if Isabelle didn't announce a meteor shower! I FINALLY GOT STARS! XD

I learned you can plant palm trees on grass if you place a sand path before planting it! I don't know if this is common knowledge or not but I had no idea and I've been running around planting palm trees along the side of the beach all day to smooth the line between beach and grass a little more.

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.
