When players first unlock Base Camp, there are a lot of debris and weed littering the island. Clearing out weed is simple with your Interact button.

Clearing out debris will be more complicated as most debris will require more residents in your island to clear out depending on its size.

Clearing these objects out from your island lets you gain more access to space to decorate and build more buildings around your island.

Registering Islanders

FANTASY LIFE i - Assigning Residents

Registering islanders is an important step in completing your island. Islanders will not be considered a Resident if they are not assigned a Vacant Home to stay in.

This prohibits them from lodging requests to you, and in turn, unable to build affinity with you.

Buddy Requests

Islanders can put up requests for players to complete. These requests raise said Islander's affinity which unlocks special skills when levelled up enough.
