Plot Resetting after deleting a PWP

[toadsworthy]

So I am wondering, can you plot reset into a spot that the day before was blocked by a PWP?

So I want Hamlet to live right next to me, but it was one of those awkward spots that they ALWAYS plot in. So I had a yellow bench there, once I got hamlet to move in for the next day, I went and deleted the yellow bench so that the spot would be open next day. Is it possible to have Hamlet move here? or am I drawing dead?

I feel like I wanted this last time and no one ever moved into the spot I wanted

because so far, he won't go into the post I want him too....

I also wonder if, I wait a whole 24 hours for a second day to start, if then the spot would be cleared and I could move him into the right spot

Are you saying the bench was there the same day you invited him, and you demolished it the same day? If so, he shouldn't have any problem moving in there. By the way, when I was plot resetting for Cheri tonight, she was going into the same spot literally 30+ times. If you keep resetting, he should eventually wind up in the spot you want. That's what happened with Cheri.

yes exactly ^

I had a bench there yesterday, I invited Hamlet that day, deleted the bench, then did plot resetting stuff and have been going for a little bit. no avail yet

There shouldn't be any problem as long as he moves in the day after you set the bench to be demolished. It just might take some time.

I honestly don't know. It would depend on how the game is coded since the plot appears at the same time as the bench is deleted, but when your map is being generated, one has to happen before the other since a computer cannot perform two commands simultaneously as far as I know. If the code is written so the bench is deleted before the plot appears, then you shouldn't have a problem, but if it's the other way around, then the game is forced to plot somewhere else before the bench is deleted. So you could be trying forever and it might not even be possible.

And I don't think waiting two days will help either. If the plot is generated before the bench is deleted, then the plot will still come first when you "generate" your map by creating a new character. The process doesn't change no matter how many days pass.

I feel like you'd have better chances if you waited a full day after demolishing it. Idk, just me though.
