Villager leaving after birthday

[JvdB01]

Errr... Somehow pietro decided tomorrow was a good day to move, except today is his birthday, I couldn't care less about pietro, but I just finished my paths and I don't want the next villager to plant a house on it / miles away from it. So... Can I stop him? I heard timetraveling one day back will only make him move faster, so am I doomed, do I just have to hope the next villager won't ruin my path?

You can always plot reset when the next villager comes. If you don't know how, there's guides on YouTube and probably on this site as well. I got Walker the other day and had to plot reset so he didn't mess up any of my trees or pathing.

You can plot reset when the next villager is moving in to your town. About Pietro, I don't think you can stop him from moving since today is his birthday & all day he will be celebrating & all the birthday guy will be talking about on his birthday is his birthday.

Just do plot resetting I have no choice but to do that now every time I get a new villager since there is literally nowhere else they can go other than into the place the last villager left from.
It can take a while sometimes (took me two hours for Rudy) but like I said, I literally only have one space they can go each time and it's got to be exact otherwise it drives me mad....

Ok, thanks! Now on to see if I can sell my nightma- err... I mean pietro to someone.

Hmmm... Plot resetting seems like a pain, oh well, I take it making a save backup and restoring from it if it's in the wrong place would work too?

Lolly was the rumor mover on her birthday last year. The next day she pinged me right away and I stopped her.
If you had a moving request a couple of days or so you should be go. If you want him gone than say yes. Changes he's mind than leave the game without saving and avoid him until he's out.

maybe after midnight tonight you can get a ping from him to stop him?? his birthday will be over by then, as events end at midnight, right; but i'm pretty sure a new day for moving purposes won't come around until 6 am...

 

[JvdB01]

Tried it, I waited next to his house for 50 minutes, he didn't come out...

hmm, did you go inside and confirm the celebrating is over?

i never wait 20 minutes for a ping, i just quit and restart until the villager is outside and pings me...

 

[JvdB01]

I did, I also restarted multiple times.

Oh well, at least it's pietro, and not pekoe (my favorite villager)

Wa- he didn't... Leave... Can villagers lie about others moving? I know Winnie said he'd leave the 20th of this month... Am I going insane...?

 

[JvdB01]

Just spoke to him... He changed it to the 24th, I'm 100% certain Winnie said the 20th... Am I seeing things? Has this rainbow-coloured sheep finally broken my mind?

 

[King Dorado]

that timing is as though Pietro only just decided to move... I hope Winnie wasn't referring to a different villager... *m*

 

[JvdB01]

wait... I thought only one villager could want to move at a time, and everyone is still here in my town, so maybe I just misread the date, I could have sworn she said Pietro. [SUB]I swear that clown is going to drive me insane one day.[/SUB]

other villagers cant tell you the date they can only tell you who wants to move.

 

[JvdB01]

Are you sure? Because Winnie did say a date. But now that you mention it... That does seem a bit odd, usually they don't... Let's just say Pietro made me insane and the date was a hallucination of my delirious mind.
