#acnl hacking

Hey friend, sorry for the late reply!

As far as I know, you can't prevent a villager from moving out through hacking.

But you have other options.

Option 1: If you find that your beloved villager has moved away, you can always just change another villager to the one you've lost:

Anything can be adjusted here.

Of course, that won't save your friendship you might have built up with them and I know that this actually means a lot to some players.

But there's Option 2:

If you plan to take a break, create a save file of when you last played (put the date in the file name, so you won't forget it). Now when you return and see that your villager is gone, just load up the backed-up file and see if the villager is now there. It might take a few tries until that happens. Please note that the time, that has passed while you were gone will still be recognized by the game.

If that takes too long and you don't mind time-traveling, then there's Option 3: Set the time to when you last played before your break, load up your back-up file and then everything should be as if you've never even left at all.

Option 3 is the one I'm mostly using because it's the most convenient and I also won't have missed out on any seasonal events.

As for there being a MOD for this specifically - never heard of it.

Oat finally has a Dream Address!

Take a stroll in the forest-y town of Oat. A purple sunrise occurs.

I finally kinda finished one of my towns! It’s still a WIP. Took me a week but it was all worth and fun!
