Time traveling back
- Thread starter kwark
- Start date
Going backwards only counts as one day, no matter how far back you go. It's not likely you'd lose a villager, unless they were going to be moving in one day anyway.
You can go forward in one go, but each day forward is it's own day. So if you go back an entire year, its only one day. But going forward an entire year is 365 days.

As badcrumbs said, when time travelling back, it counts as one day.
When you come back to the present, if you want to do it safely, just keep going forward day by day until a villager pings you to move. Ask them to stay and then you can set your calendar back to the present in one go. Let me know if you need a better explanation or more help about how coming back to the present that way. The only downside is that when you come back to the present, your villagers will be a bit distant and talk about missing you, so if you want to avoid that, playing each day until you catch up is the best idea.
If the date you want to go back to is the last date you played, then don't even start as your mayor now since you might lose villagers unless you denied someone's request to move on the last day you played. Just use a new character to check if anyone's gone, set your calendar back, and then turn down that villager's request to move. I wrote a guide a while ago, about going on hiatus safely, so if this is your case let me know and I'll find it for you.
