Question About Why W. Link Won’t Move In Properly

[Lapras58555]

I have this 3x3 land open for W. Link to move in and the rest of my town is filled with patterns.. but he won’t move onto my 3x3, he goes somewhere where patterns are.. so I was wondering if someone could help me out

i think there's something where you can't have too many villagers in a single area or there's some other anti-crowding thing. i would try moving your 3x3 grid somewhere else and see if that works

Can you maybe show us a picture of where exactly you want W.Link and maybe a pic of your map?

I tried, but none of my files are uploading

That would make it easier to pinpoint why he isn't choosing that spot. I guess the only thing I can suggest is it's too close to something. A pwp, a river bed, a cliff, someone's house...there are already three houses in the spot. Something of that sort.

did you leave a few extra squares in front, for the door?

 

[Lapras58555]

Yeah there is one house to the left from his spot and three to the right

you need two spaces between houses bc each house needs its own space here's a diagram from gamefaqs where H is part of a house and S is an empty space

"Two house as close as possible would look like this.

Since each house needs it's own space you can't ever have a layout like this.
