What Is Good Island Etiquette?
When visiting other people’s islands, you should follow some polite rules. Here’s a brief overview.
Don’t linger for too long. Like in real life, know when to leave. Don’t outstay your welcome. If you’ve come solely to exchange goods, go once you’ve done so. Respect the island. Don’t trash another player’s island by chopping down trees or picking all their flowers. Leave it in as good condition as you found it.Never ’leave quietly.’ It’s possible to leave an island ‘quietly’ by pressing the - button to leave, but this can be buggy and cause issues for players, especially if you’ve just traded items. Leave via the airport to ensure this does not happen.Communicate with the other player. It’s friendly to say ‘hey’ and talk to the other player, as well as potentially leave a gift. After all, you’re a visitor to their home!
To get iron in Animal Crossing, your best bet is to use a shovel or axe to strike rocks you find on your island and hope an iron nugget appears as a resource.
