A friend got the exterior glitch and they don't like it, any fixes for this glitch?
They don't time travel by the way.

Unfortunately, there's no easy fix. The only "fix" is having the villager move out and then re-invite them back,

From what we know, yes, it's from time traveling more than one day forward at a time during the move-in process, or time-traveling backwards before the villager has moved in.
I'm not sure if it can happen naturally too, if you simply don't play the game for a few days and therefore miss the move-in process, though I assume it still could?

No. It seems that it can also occur if you just don't load the save on the "plot sold" day.
Presumably, TTing actually won't cause the glitch if you TT only one day ahead to the plot sold day, save the game, then move one more day to when the villager is in boxes. But I can't say that for certain.
Ah I see, they didn't play while the villager was moving in so that's probably the cause

The plot is "sold" the moment you adopt, though? It would be impossible to not load it.

I think what they mean is that it can happen if you don't play the day the villager actually moves in (as in, the first day the villager is in their house unpacking).
My friend invited via amibo

No, from what I understand, it's actually the day before they move in. The camper move in/move out process works like this:
- Day 1: Camper is able to be invited. (Amiibo will obviously have a few days preceding this day, but those days aren't relevant. All campers can cause this glitch with a forced move out). The villager selected to be forced out is in boxes and moving out.
- Day 2: The plot is empty and specifically says sold to the camper. This is what I mean by the "plot sold" day.
- Day 3: Camper moves in and is in boxes.
- Day 4: Camper is out of boxes and walking around like normal.
I'm not sure if playing Day 2 and skipping Day 3 has any effect. I would imagine no, because the old house is "demolished," but anyone can chime in if I'm wrong on that.
