=== Player Spawn === | |||
Where you appear in the world is your "spawn location". If you die in the game, you will reappear at your spawn location until you find a way to reset your spawn point later in the game. Please note that sleeping in a bed does not reset your spawn location. | |||
=== Map === | |||
You can open your large world map by pressing M. Press M to close the map again. You can track your location in the world on your minimap and using your X, Y, Z coordinates (Display by pressing V) You can set a waypoint to mark any place of interest you find while exploring. The command to set a waypoint is "/waypoint add color name. It may be a good idea to set a marker for your spawn point when you first appear in the world. For example: /waypoint add red spawn. A red dot will appear on your large map and your minimap when you are close to the location. | |||

Use the knapping system to craft a spearhead or two. Combine the stone spear head with sticks to craft the spear. Spears are the strongest long range weapon in the stone age, but break quickly. In an emergency you can use knives, axes, or just plain sticks as weapons. You can also throw stones at mobs. | ||
