Getting started
First of all, wooden tools and golden tools are removed.
So how can you survive without wooden tools?
Fear not, a new bunch of new items have been added within this plugin.
Understand the usage of tools
- Punching wood? Nope. You must use a Hatcher or an Axe for breaking any wooden blocks.
- Digging dirt with your bare hands? Nope. You must use a Shovel for breaking any dirt/sandy blocks.
- Breaking stone? You must use a Mattock or Pickaxe for breaking any hard blocks.
- Gathering fruits or vegetables? You must use a Sickle for harvesting crops.
- Cut strings or disarm TnT? You must use Shears for cutting.
- Placing artificial blocks? You must use a Hammer in your offhand for placing blocks.
Survive and thrive
First, find some trees. Gather some
sticks by breaking the
leaves.
- Leaves have a 25% chance to drop 1 stick, otherwise no drop.
Sticks are also obtainable from
Saplings.
Next, find some
gravel. Gather some
flints by breaking them.
- Gravel has a 50% chance to drop 1 flint, otherwise no drop, by breaking with bare hands.
Gravel is usually found near
lakes, rivers, extreme hills, caves, and cliffs.
Hmm, if you can't find any gravel in your area, try the following method if it's available:
Now you can make a
Hatchet with these two items.
Break down some logs with your Hatchet, convert some logs into planks and sticks.
Now you can make a
Mattock.
Next, find some
stones. No, you can't break dirt straight down to find stones yet, you will need a
shovel.
Hence, find a cave, or a mountain. Gather stones, and if you're lucky, get some
coal too.
To make a workbench, you need the last tool,
Hammer.
It is used to make
workbenches and
build artificial blocks.(See below)
Get a weapon
You can choose either using a Stone Sword or
Shiv as your basic weapon.
Shiv adds poison effect on hit, but with less damage.
Harvest
cows and
sheep to obtain
Leather and
String(from Wool)
Hydration
If you are thirsty, craft a
Bowl to obtain water. Simply throw
1 Bowl into a water source, it will become a
Water Bowl.
Drinking it will quench the thirst, but
purified water is recommended when cauldrons are affordable.
Plan and craft
Then, you craft a
Workbench like so:
With your workbench, you can upgrade your tools to stone tools.
With a shovel, digging Gravel is less risky to get flint.
We need to go deeper
Need to discover the underground? You'll need
Torches.
But you need to make a
Firestriker for igniting.
Firestriker can also be used like
flint and steel,
cook some meat,
smelt some simple items.
It has a
durability of 8. Right-click on the ground to set it on fire.
To use the
smelting option of a firestriker, right-click while sneaking.
Controls:
- Put unsmelted/uncooked items in the smelting slot.
- Click on the result slot to smelt/cook one item.
- To exit, either click on the Firestriker or press Escape.
Firestriker Recipes:
Any cookable
Food
Charcoal
Glass
Brick
To make a
Furnace, further works are required.
Start gathering some
Clay by breaking clay blocks, or:
Turn clay balls into
Brick with Firestriker, it's an essential material for making furnaces.
Make your own
Furnace in the workbench.
Now you can smelt ores with Furnace.
Settle down before sunset
Time to settle, make sure you bring the workbench with you, it's important.
Make some
Chests to store your items.
Build your house This is where the hammer comes in handy. All
artificially crafted blocks (eg. planks) can only be
placed when with the use of a
hammer.
Put a
hammer on the
off-hand, your
blocks on the
main hand, start building your house!
Each
placed block has a
10% chance to reduce the hammer's
durability by
1.
