世界生成

在創建新世界時，玩家可以選擇不同的預設或單獨自定義設置。
建議新玩家檢查他們的第一個世界的自定義選項或從冒險預設開始，因為標準預設的一些難度設置可能非常難受。

對新玩家來說最具有挑戰性的難點主要如下：

• 死亡懲罰（在死亡時保留或掉落物品）
• 時空穩態（時間風暴、地表穩態和裂縫）
• 氣候分布（不同「生物群落」之間的距離，以及是否真實地分布在赤道周圍，還是隨機分布）
• 地表沉積概率（銅和錫，因為它們都是重要的起步金屬）

下方表格顯示了可用的世界預設，建議使用預設選項下方的自定義按鈕來進一步自定義你的世界，因為世界生成和玩家體驗的幾乎所有方面都可以更改。所有自定義選項的詳細列表可以在世界配置頁面上找到。

Preset	Important Aspects
Standard	Despite it's name, this is not necessarily the best starting point for any new players. It comes with the full assortment of difficulty options, meaning temporal stability, hunger, temperatures etc. are all enabled. Without customization, monsters will spawn from the first night on and inventory will be dropped on death.
Exploration	Most direct threats like creature hostility & temporal stability are turned off, natural difficulties like hunger and temperatures are reduced. The player will keep their inventory on death.
Wilderness Survival	Hard Mode - not recommended for new players. Standard Mode with additional challenges - inventory is dropped on death and the player will respawn in a random location in a 5k block radius. Player health points are reduced and creature strength is raised.
Creative Building	As the name implies, this is your typical flat building world with Creative Mode enabled from the start. If you'd rather like to build in a normal map, customize a different preset to start in Creative Mode instead of Survival Mode.

Your first day

Player Spawn

Players appear in the world at the "spawn location". If a player dies in the game, the player will reappear (respawn) at the initial spawn location until the player spawn point is reset (a way to reset player's spawn location can be found later in the game.) It's a good idea to set a marker for this spawn point when a player first appears in the world. Either right mouse click on the world map or through the command /waypoint add [waypointcolor] [title]. This command adds a waypoint with given color (any .NET Color or a Hex Code) and text.

Stone tools

Branches and Stones

Knapping process

In order to start the Stone Age, you will need Stone Tools, the process usually involves the following:

1. Find Flint or Loose Stones (basalt, granite, andesite, obsidian or peridotite).
2. Sneak + Right click on solid ground to create a knapping surface. (Only Flint will immediately create a knapping surface. In order to use the other loose stones, you need to place it once, then Sneak + Right click again with another loose stone.
3. Choose the tool to create from the menu. Axe and a Knife are highly recommended as first tools.
4. Using a stone in the active hand, left click on the orange boxes to remove them from the stone and shape the finished blade or tool head. When the last orange box is removed, the completed tool head will transfer to the player's hotbar.
5. Press E to open the inventory GUI and access the crafting grid. In the grid, combine the stone tool blade with a stick (handle) to create the finished tool.

Note: Sticks can be collected from the ground or by breaking leafy branches using left click.

Player Inventory

Players have access to 3 types of inventory slots.

Off-hand slot that can hold passive items such as torchers or lanterns. Main inventory that holds 10 slots and every slot is linked to a shortcut for quick access (default: keys 1 to 0). Portable containers. Up to 4 containers can be added to expand the inventory even further, the slots are shown in the inventory/crafting window (default: E key). Tip: Hand Baskets are the best first options to expand your inventory. Harvest Reeds, which can usually be found near lakes. The crafting grid can be found here or by pressing H and searching for basket to see its grid crafting recipe.

Food

Food scavenging time!

Here are some of the first day options for food:

• Mushrooms can be harvested with a knife or empty hands. They will regrow at the exact spot, so marking mushroom clusters on the map can be advantageous. Make sure to check the mushroom with the Handbook to check for poisonous variants, as some mushrooms can drain your health or even kill you when consumed raw or cooked
• Ripe Berry Bushes can be harvested without tools, and then broken and replanted anywhere else. After a while they will start to bloom again.
• Cattail roots can be harvested using a knife and cooked over a fire as a source of early game forage.
• Most animals can be killed and harvested with a knife for nutritious meat and fat. Hold Sneak + Hold Right mouse button with a knife in hand to harvest animals. Meat must be cooked in a fire pit.

Clay

Find clay and take it with you or mark it on the map.

Clay is a required resource to progress through the ages, and in early game it can be used to build comparatively cheap stationary storage options and your first means to preserve food for a bit longer. It is also required to craft a cooking pot, which is necessary for advanced cooking.

Detailed information can be found in the Clay Forming page.

Light / Cooking

Crafting a firepit.

Once the sun sets, a player might want to create a firepit as a source of light and for cooking. Be aware though, rain will extinguish any uncovered fires or torches, so be sure to build a simple roof over any firepits.
Gather the following resources:

• Dry grass: left click with a Knife in hand to gather Tall Grass.
• Firewood: left click with an Axe in hand to cut Trees and harvest logs. Place the axe and logs in the crafting grid to create firewood.

Hold Sneak + Right click on solid ground with the dry grass in hand to place a fire pit. Next, Sneak + Right click with 4 firewood in hand to complete the fire pit. Then, light the fire using a firestarter (or a torch), hold Right click with either item in hand and aim at the base of the firepit. (Optionally check the handbook, opened with H, to find out how to make a firestarter.)

Congratulations, meat can be cooked and new torches created by heating sticks! Be careful though, a torch in your off hand will cause you to take an increased hunger penalty, and torches held while taking a dip in water will get extinguished.

Combat

To defend against hostile creatures, craft stone age weapons by knapping or carving a club from a log. Different weapons have different ranges. Spears are the strongest long range weapon in the stone age, but break quickly. Create a stone spearhead by knapping, and combine with a stick (shaft) in the crafting grid to finish the spear. Wooden clubs are durable but have less damage and less range. Knives, axes, or just plain sticks can all be used as weapons, but these have shorter ranges than the spear. In an emergency, small stones can be thrown at mobs. For more information, see the main article on Combat

Improvised body armor can be crafted from dry grass and firewood for some very basic protection. It will not protect your head or legs, but is better than nothing. Once more established in the world of Vintage Story, more advanced types of armor can be crafted.

Shelter

Once the sun sets, a player might also like a shelter. There are different blocks that you can use to make a shelter using the early resources you have available. Dry grass can be used to make a bed early on, or form hay blocks/cob for early building blocks. Soil is also a good building material, and can be used to form Mud Bricks.

Stationary Storage

See Container's main article for detailed information.

In picture: a chest, a labeled chest, a vessel and a basket.

For more storage, the player can craft two early game containers.

• Baskets have 8 slots for items, however they require a total of 24 cattails and shouldn't be used to store food if possible.
• Storage Vessels have 12 slots. They require clay to craft and have the best spoilage rates in the game, which make them suitable for food storage.
• Chests have 16 slots, but require boards, which also require access to smithing.

Temperature

See Temperature's main article for detailed information.

The player's body temperature needs to be kept around 37°C. Prolonged times with body temperature under this mark will result in freezing animations and even damage taken. Beware that dipping in water or being out in the rain will make your temperature drop faster. Standing near a lit campfire can warm the player up and the body temperature will stay up a while even after stepping away.

Temporal Stability

See Temporal Stability's main article for detailed information.

By now a player might be wondering about the cyan gear between the health and satiety bar. This is the temporal stability meter, the level of color in the gear indicates the player's current temporal stability. As a player's temporal stability reduces, the gear turns counter clockwise and the blue color in the gear decreases. When increasing, the gear's color returns as it turns clockwise. If temporal stability reaches zero, the player's vision will change drastically, and bad things tend to happen.

Draining temporal stability:

• Some surface areas are temporally unstable
• Caves, underground caverns, and places below surface level are generally more unstable than the surface of the world
• Temporal storms (occur at regular intervals)

Recovering temporal stability:

• Move to a location of high stability on the surface or at higher elevations in the world
• Transfer the temporal stability from a temporal gear: hold the gear in the left hand, a knife in the right hand, and hold right mouse button to provide a 30% boost
• Killing drifters recovers small amounts of your own temporal stability
