I've been working on modding my switch/setting up my treasure island and i'm finally in the final forms of just placing my items down and mapping it out, but what is the easiest way to reset after people visit island? is it just to reload the save or is there another method I'm not grasping? also, I'm not sure if I missed it but is there an easier way to mass place a bunch of items at once, or is the only easy method going through individually and placing them?

To respawn island you can use poker or mobile spawner to freeze the map and it will auto.refill, i made a post about dropping stuff, i will check and post here

i've been actively trying to work on the island, but whenever I save it seems to not be saving, and just resorting back to original save I made when i started up the game. any suggestions?

Did you select the upper section and select save?
Not just on map editor

I'm going to guess you are saving on the map tab, and not on the main island tab. After making changes, save on the map tab, close map tab, then on the window where it shows your avatar face, save there as well

Yes, i ensured to save on the map editor and in the main screen with the confirmation window several times, but I just loaded up the island and it's still at the before edit state.

I don't see any other saves other than the original one I made last night when I first started.
Lets.go by steps
Make a jksv backup
Send to pc
Edit on nhse
Save on map editor
Save on main nhse page (edit - save i think)
Send to jksv - animal crossing folder on sd
Open jksv on switch
Restore save
Open game to check everything works

Normally you jksv a save, copy that over to pc, edit in nhse, save, copy new save back to sd card, then jksv restore the new save. Using ftp or other solutions can save you time on getting stuff to/from the sd card.
edit - i'm always a second late lol, Xjackio on the ball :)

I think I know where I went wrong. I missed a step and was thinking it was saving to the SD card when I was saving, not to my file on the desktop. I was a step ahead of myself! Thanks so much for the guidance.

Yup i just restored it and its there!

Just did those steps.
I see it on JKSV, under device.
I clicked restore, it made a new auto-device- save.
I closed out of there and went to AC, booted it up and still old island save.
I'm using a digital version of animal crossing, would it be saving elsewhere that I need to over write?
