What are the rules about planting bushes? The first one I ever planted was, I guess, too close to my house, and it wilted. I'm wondering if they work the same way as trees in that respect.

They can be tree or bush adjacent, but need at least one space from anything else, I think.

From my experience they work as trees in regard to how close they can be in relation to houses, PWPs etc but they can be planted directly next to each other unlike trees.

So while I was still a girl, I made a sweet dress. Which had nothing to do with the default flag.

Goes great with light-green hair and a clover.

Also: it was a real pain in the ass uploading those without removing my SD card.

Yes.

But there's also different rules for maximum numbers. I think I'm beginning to figure those, at last. A tree will only grow if there's 7 trees or less whose distance is 3 or lower. There's probably a limitation of bushes AND trees (I'm guessing 14), but I've yet to test it.

For bushes, it's mostly the same. You need something like 14 trees+bushes or less at a distance of 3 or lower for it to grow.

I'm pretty sure now that the density is only computed when the tree tries to grow, so you could have 9 trees in a 7x7 area, depending on your planning. But if you cut the tree in the center and try to plant a new one, it'll failed. I'm trying to verify this, but since I'm after the golden can, I must be cautious...

Haha wow. Can't say I do enough planting to worry too much about this or even realise this kind of system exists haha. Probably need to start doing a bit more landscaping.

I shot people I like more for less.
This is likely common knowledge, but I was curious about the "furniture replacement" request, so I decided to test it out a bit. If the villager is in their house, I believe they will always give you the item they are replacing back as your "gift." Just tried it with Rhonda around 20 times, and each time she gave me a stepladder back. So if you want something that likely isn't junk you've already given them, you probably should wait until they're outside :)

I'm beginning to wonder what happen when a villager try to move in and there's no space available in town...

30 PWPs doesn't seem a really big amount, but with houses (4 human and 9 animals), special buildings and natural landscape, you can pretty much fill the map.

Sometimes... Stalking animals for hours hoping they'll start talking to each other just pays off:

My red* roses just spawned another blue rose which wasn't even near my first one. Whelp, nothing is stopping this train now.

Already got 4 orange tulips (and a stray black one) and 3 red* pansies. Here we go!

The Black tulip comes from orange X orange?

If that's right I miscounted my own amount of days I have the game now :p

Still can't sit, got it on june 13th. It's late, better go to bed now :p

I've had the game since June 16th, and I was just able to sit on it today.

So is there any reason to keep your silver tools one you get the gold ones? so far I have the gold slingshot and gold watering can, but I don't know if I should keep their silver varieties.

At least have one silver tool as backup? That's what I plan on doing.
 
So, I'm pretty sure my Marina has literally disappeared off the face of the Earth. I have checked EVERYWHERE for her and nada.

I think she's hanging out with Resetti.

Wow, it looks cool at night!



Half-inclined to just keep this room like this as a Church of the Default Tree or something.

EDIT: I need pews.

Those are red* pansies bred from blue x red parents. Took less than 10 days

Now working on purple tulips.
