Here's why and what you can do instead:
* Designs are saved to your profile: Designs are linked to your individual player profile, not specific towns.
* Sharing Designs: You can share designs with other players in a few ways:
* QR Codes: You can get QR codes for designs from others online (like on websites or social media) and scan them in-game.
* Custom Design Portal: The in-game Custom Design Portal allows you to share and download designs created by others. You can also share your own designs this way.
* Visiting Friends/Villagers: You can visit other players' towns and view/download designs from their custom design stands.
Steps to Get and Use Designs from Others:
1. Find a Design: Look for designs you like online, from friends, or while visiting other players' towns.
2. Get the Code: If it's a QR Code, scan it using your NookPhone in-game. If it's from the Custom Design Portal, download it.
3. Save the Design: The design will be saved to your Custom Designs app on your NookPhone.
4. Place on a Stand: Create a new custom design stand and use the "Edit" option to choose the saved design you want to display.
Note: You can only place designs you've downloaded on custom design stands, you can't directly import designs from other towns.
