Hello Willow, goodbye Willow

[Mimi14]

You promised a plot where i wanted you at startup on the screen. Then I load up, your in a HORRIBLE spot.
Now you must go.
So now Soliel is coming in! Good thing I never made a thread asking between them. ACNL decided for me.

Has anyone had this happen before to them?

The loading screen can be misleading. Since you haven't actually started up your town yet, what the loading screen shows is one of the countless possibilities for when you load your town. Usually this doesn't matter, because you pretty much only see a villager walking around outside (while they may actually be inside when you load your file).

Are you familliar with plot resetting?

And yes, I've had it happen to me that I saw a fence plopped down in the perfect spot in the startup screen, but I knew it most likely wouldn't be there when I'd load my file, and I was right. I don't think I ever managed to get them in that perfect spot in the end.

I spent a LONG time plot resetting for Francine and no matter how many times I did it, she just never put her plot where I wanted it. She finally DID have it where I wanted it, but it was on the title screen. You can basically think of the title screen as some sort of "preview" of what you town might be like when you start up your game. For example if you saw the event plaza on the title screen on a new day and it showed maybe you had Redd or Katrina in your town, it doesn't necessarily mean you will have them there when you start your town up.

The title screen is just a big troll, to put it lightly...
I know that feel, though. v.v
