==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 using a temporal gear.
===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.
===Player Hotbar and Inventory===
Your hotbar contains a single left hand slot, 10 right hand slots and 4 inventory slots. You can hold items in your left hand. It's a good idea to move your torch to your left hand so that you have a light source.
Your inventory can only contain 10 items at any given time (essentially your hotbar is your inventory) until you add containers to your 4 inventory slots.
