Question about inviting amiibos to live in your town?

[fefe0617]

If you invite someone from the campsite to move in and have to kick out another villager, will the new character plot in the exact same location as the villager leaving? Or will they plot somewhere random like the other villagers?

It is still random, though they may show a preference for the kicked-out villager's general area in some cases.

Okay, perfect! I felt like I remembered reading somewhere that they would move into the same place, but I was unsure if that was confirmed. Thank you!

I think there's more to it actually. It should be random, but I think if an amiibo villager takes the place of an amiibo villager, yu can plot them in the exact spot of the last amiibo villager. I needed Wolf Link out of a bad spot. I kicked him out and moved in Cyrano through an amiibo card. Cyrano chose a random spot. Kicked out Cyrano, and when Wolf Link began to plot again, he chose to plot in the exact spot where Cyrano once lived. He did this 85-90% of the time I plot reset with him. I think there may be some method to it, but we haven't figured it out yet. That, or I was just incredibly unlucky since I hated that spot.

Not one square off, W.Link was determined to live where Cyrano did.
