lf help moving rocks

[Hyllin]

I'm having problems with my rock garden. I got the first 3 rock to swan alright in it but none of the last 3 haven't spawned anywhere on the island as far I can tell. Is there something wrong with this layout?

i had the same problem with my first attempt and ended up having to move it because the last two rocks just would not spawn i don't know what exactly kept them from spawning? perhaps too close to the cliff even though it was three spaces away idk? i eventually did get them all moved together in a line but i had to completely change their location

(i heard someone say you could only have 3 rocks per one "acre" but thats since been disproved i guess so ive got no answers)

Have you checked any blindspots behind houses/stores/trees? Sometimes they spawn there and they're really hard to find.

They should be able to spawn in those spots. I found that placing items down didn't really help me if I missed a spot where any rock could appear so I ended up pathing my entire island instead of using mannequins or items. Make sure you check around trees and buildings because they may spawn beside there without you knowing!

I’ve looked behind all the trees and buildings and haven’t found even one of the three yet

Only 1 will spawn back per day.

I’ve heard of people forcing spawns after having this happen by opening up a spot somewhere else wherethey don’t want the rock, letting it spawn there, destroying it, then covering the spot back up. And the rock is then supposed to res pawn the next day in one of your plotted spots. No clue if it’s legitimate though.

I’ve also heard tell not all 6 will spawn in the same acre but that is also not definitive.
I personally have all of mine spawned in a circle pattern but it happened to be spaced throughout the corners of 3 acres and I had no problems at all getting them to spawn, so the acre thing may have some more merit to it but as far asi’ve fpund there’s no real solutions to this forced rock spawn issue

I managed to get them all in the garden and on the same acre. It seems like there is a minimum number of open tiles to have rocks swan so I had to remove a few mannequins but it let me black the tiles with items
