Leif hasn’t come in months!

[mad0211]

Hey! I’ve heard Leif is supposed to come once every two weeks or something like that. I’ve been playing for about 2 months and he’s never shown up to my island at all. My game is fully updated and everything so I was wondering if anyone knows how to fix this issue. Thanks!

Have you used TT at all? Do you have resident services building unlocked? Have you unlocked K.K. ?

I’ve unlocked everything and have had terraforming for a while. I’m also kinda trying to avoid time travel.

Ok. Time Traveling backwards can reset the NPC visitor schedule, so making sure that wasn't in play. I wasn't sure whether Leif could come before the Resident Services building upgrade, so thought I should ask.

Yeah I can’t seem to find any way to fix it or any explanation even.

I had the same problem with Redd. Between the last week of May and mid-November, I couldn't find him. Then, he visited my island twice this month.

Yeah every other visitor has been showing up pretty regularly.

Yikes I’m hoping I don’t have to wait that long cuz I’m mainly trying to get the hedge recipe haha.

I have noticed that Leif isn't that frequent for me either. But the other day I noticed that when I TT back one day, when I come back to the current day the NPC was different. So I had Gulliver, went back one day, did some stuff, went forward one day, and there was Leif. I don't know if this is something new in the update? But anyway if you are having trouble getting a certain NPC that might be a way to work around it.

Yeah I might try that. Thank you!

Did you TT to Sunday? If so, that's known to reset the NPC schedule.

It might have been - I don’t recall. But that’s good to know!
