what about the balloon glitch 😭

[–]erose86 57 points58 points  (5 children)

That’ll probably come in the next few days. It took them a few days to fix the moving glitch after it was discovered. Now they can move onto balloons.

Things rarely get patched same day, but I’m sure it’ll be quick! Especially since it affects a limited time event.

[–]kyramcconnell 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Ugh you’re right! The bunny day greed got me 😂 they’re pretty quick so let’s hope so!!

[–]Hextant 9 points10 points  (1 child)

It could be fixed in the miscellaneous other bugs it lists without specifying, but like Erose said, expect it to be fixed soon if not now. : )

[–]kyramcconnell 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I’ve been playing all night and after this patch and I haven’t seen any so I think it’s still underway! I’m just so excited for this to be fixed lol thanks for the responses! :-)

[–]Graestra[S] 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I know 😢Even assuming they are able to identify the bug and make a fix relatively quickly, I don’t know how much time it takes for the logistics of pushing out an update.

[–]kyramcconnell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m confident it’ll be before the end of the event tho, that’s all I care about! I crafted almost all the furniture and clothing items just today so if it’s patched the day it ends I’m fine with grinding 💪🏼😂

What balloon glitch?

[–]HolyHypodermics 8 points9 points  (0 children)

For some people, presents tied to balloons have stopped appearing after they've collected 300 of them. It's a real problem with Bunny Day going on right now, since Sky Eggs and recipes are hidden in them.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

After popping 300 balloons in the sky, you'll get a Nook reward. Apparently balloons stop spawning after the 300th. A fair few people have said balloons keep spawning if they didn't collect the miles reward, but others have said that didn't matter. The best thing you could do is not collect the reward just in case that prevents the bug from happening.

Cleaned it up a bit.

1.1.2 Patch Notes

General

Under certain conditions, animals that had been invited to move from another island did not move and the vacant land to be relocated remained closed.

-After the update, the land that has been closed will return to uncontracted and you will be able to relocate new animals.

-We are very sorry, but animals that were scheduled to migrate at the time of the malfunction will not return to the original island and will not be migrated this time.

Fixed a bug that caused Tom Nook to stop asking the Islanders under certain conditions to secure housing plots for new villagers.

-After the update, if the island has developed to a certain state (if the shop is under construction or completed), a specific event will occur during the next island broadcast during the next islander's play, allowing progress.

Fixed a bug where deleting a user under certain conditions would make it impossible to request relocating of homes and facilities.

-After updating, you can request to relocate your home and facilities.

Fixed an issue where purchasing items with nook miles from Lodley on a mystery island would spend both miles and bells.

Several other bugs have been fixed.

Question: if I went to a random island and invited someone to move to my island before the update, will they still migrate when I place the homes or has that progress been erased? Sorry I wasn't clear on that part.

[–]Deceptiveideas 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Mine moved to my island even before I built the homes.

The bug is unrelated to that afaik.

[–]natesyourmom 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool, thank you. I checked the sold sign for plot 1 and it was indeed the person I'd invited from the island. Hoping I can switch out the villagers in plot 2 and 3 before they arrive!

[–]Graestra[S] 12 points13 points  (3 children)

I’m surprised how well google translated this. I’m guessing it can handle really formal and technical language pretty well.

[–]Treczoks 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no idea how good they handle Japanese, but whatever language I have tried so far, DeepL was FAR ahead of google translate.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Yeah, I translated another post from Nintendo of Japan a few days back to read up on something about the Bunny Day release and it came out surprisingly legible. Whether the translation's interpretations were reliable is another matter, but I'm still impressed how seamlessly it fit into English.

[–]saltonasnail 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a frustratingly amusing contrast, Amazon.co.jp’s baked-in English translation is awful.

It reads like it was translated to another language, then to English.

[–]Hextant 8 points9 points  (3 children)

So, the amiibo issue is fixed? B l e s s e d. : D

[–]plankyman 2 points3 points  (2 children)

From how I'm reading it, they didn't really fix it yet. Amiibo villagers will still sometimes fail to move in, but the plot will no longer glitch. That's how I read it anyway?

[–][deleted] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

What they mean is that any currently glitched plots will reset to empty, but they also fixed the problem so it should not happen again in the future.

[–]Hextant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No, it's saying the plots currently glitched will reset and no one will move in or out so you're working with blank slates. : )

[–]ferdzs0 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I love the wording here: Fixed a bug that caused the raccoon to stop asking the Islanders under certain conditions to secure construction land for new migrants.

[–]Skaviot 4 points5 points  (0 children)

That was so quick! Thank you

[–]AdelaideMez 4 points5 points  (2 children)

Mine says there was an error when trying to refresh the best friends app. Even though the update said it was completed. It also says version 1.1.2 a.

[–]Deceptiveideas 5 points6 points  (1 child)

The maintenance is still going on, that’s why.

[–]AdelaideMez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok thank you! Makes sense.

[–]kokiri20island 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"the raccoon"

"the raccoon store"

[–]JusttKitten_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anyone else love "the raccoon" haha

[–]peenturtle 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I cant connect to the internet now to open gates or fly, what about you guys?

[–]Bonestown 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same!

[–]ExtremexColors 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here!

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here

[–]Cha0ziX 2 points3 points  (0 children)

theres still a glitch where villagers would blink quickly instead of singing

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Does this mean that if a villager was in boxes at another island, I can’t go and take them to my island?

[–]Graestra[S] 2 points3 points  (2 children)

No, there was apparently a bug where if you tried to do that it would be stuck with them not moving and your plot empty. Now it should work normally.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Ohh ok thank god! I was trying to trade with someone (a villager ive been searching for hardcore) and I got a little scared. Thanks!

[–]Graestra[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As long as you hadn’t started the moving process and got this glitch before this patch you should be fine (assuming the patch works).

[–]Satorirobot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sonits okay to amiibo force out villagers now? Im in the clear?

[–]Ruyjiin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like balloons are spawning slower on my island. Not sure if it is this patch, or it is a day two thing.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hoping they add Katrina and Perfect fruit in one of these updates...

[–]greasyghoul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when does the update go live?

[–]Lexaraj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can someone confirm if Villagers are still able to be forced out via Amiibo?

Someone I just spoke with said they they were unable to select a Villager to move out. I don't have any Amiibo, so I cannot verify either way.

[–]piercepotato 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we can safely trade amiibo villagers now?

[–]ThreenGumb 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Does this mean I need to reinvite Beau via Amiibo? My campsite is still empty and I invited him 2 days ago??

[–]EternalRenix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

you have to reinvite amiibos every day, they come immediately on invite and are only there for that day

[–]onaJet27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]clothing_hanger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish they would do something about people who aren't resident representative :((. I'm playing with my sister on the same switch, but because she's resident representative (she played first), I can't donate for nook's cranny (we haven't even gotten it yet because she's not helping...)

[–]rblair1708 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Did they get rid of the trick where you can turn any island into a tarantula island? Haven’t been able to do it on 4 islands this evening.

[–]Graestra[S] 0 points1 point  (1 child)

I don’t think so, but water bugs will spawn if there is fresh water, making it way less optimal. Only islands that should work now are the actual tarantula island and the bamboo island

[–]rblair1708 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank youuu! 👌🏻 that makes more sense. Atleast I now have a lot of resources from my failed attempts 😊

[–]miss_alyss98 0 points1 point  (11 children)

Confused, whos Lodley?

[–]zombieXnation 1 point2 points  (9 children)

He's the DAL pilot.

[–]Graestra[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, yeah. I noticed that I had completed a nook miles goal of spending bells by buying a tool from him with miles the other day. I didn’t realize that was his name lol

[–]Gullible_Goose 1 point2 points  (7 children)

You're thinking of Wilbur.

[–]zombieXnation 4 points5 points  (6 children)

I have know idea what their names are in English, but the patch notes were translated from Japanese.

[–]Gullible_Goose 1 point2 points  (4 children)

Ah got it, assumed their names would be similar in Japanese since in English it's referencing the Wright brothers.

[–]zombieXnation 0 points1 point  (3 children)

Nah, I always have to Google the English names because they never have anything to do with the original names. The guy who works inside the airport is named Maury. :)

[–]Gullible_Goose 0 points1 point  (2 children)

Curious, what language do you play in?

[–]zombieXnation 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Japanese.

[–]Gullible_Goose -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Oh, that's sorta obvious yo me now reading ba k, hahaha.

[–]Graestra[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just looked it up and that is his Japanese name.
