Guides/You Have Just Spawned, Now What??

es, I know it is difficult for you to survive even after reading all those guides and stuff. Here is a detailed guide for you, because I don't want you giving up on Don't Starve.

''Will be posted as guide in the future. THIS IS STILL INCOMPLETE AND DONE WITH AMAZING HASTE FOR A FRIEND. SO BEAR WITH IT   =)''

Travel/ Explore/ Find a suitable base camp for you!:
- go to one direction until you reach the island's edge or ocean

- start traversing the land via the island's edge by going continuous left or right

- you may leave the edge to gather nearby food and resources

- if the area requires that you will be entering an aggressive mob infested region, craft a grass suit.

Food
- gather all seeds and berries you come across

- for carrots, gather only what you can eat for at least one to two days. Since they don't respawn once picked up.

Leave some unpicked for future emergencies.

Resources
- gather full stack of twigs and grass and flint and logs and stone and gold and manure. HEY!!! you don't need to do that in one day. YOU DONT NEED TO COMPLETE THIS IN ONE DAY!!!

- Flint: when you already have at least 25, then you don't need to pick up all the flint that you come across.

Leave some in case of future emergencies.

- Flower: don't immediately pick up flowers just to craft a garland. One flower gives five sanity, therefore,

only start picking when your sanity starts decreasing due to certain factors like night, rain and some mobs.

- Axe or Pick Axe: don't immediately craft an axe or pick axe, you might come across with these tools from boons or set pieces. Only start crafting an axe if night time is getting near and you have not found one. Then start chopping some trees before night falls.

- Log: when you already have an axe, you don't need to complete the full stack of logs. Just enough to constantly have crafting supply of campfire. DO NOT GO LUMBERING AT DAY TIME!

DAY TIME IS BETTER SPENT PICKING UP FOOD AND FINDING YOUR SUITABLE BASE CAMP!!!

You can do wood chopping during night time by camping near a clump of trees. Do not place your campfire too near the tree you will be chopping, because it will light the logs and pine cones it will drop.

- Manure: you may gather a full stack of manure, but twelve pieces is already enough just for prototyping farms.

- ignore the rock mines, go for the gold mines. you don't need those nitres yet.

- You actually just need at least 10 gold nuggets to survive winter

TIPS AND HINTS
- your spawn point usually is at a grassland biome. this area is filled with lootable food and resources.

This is your immediate supplier of flint lying on the ground. other than that, are rockland biomes which usually

is far from your spawn point. if you have not found flint to craft an axe, that is ok.

You can craft a torch for light since you won't be able to craft a campfire or fire pit without chopping trees and gathering logs. Do not worry about cooking food since you will only start starving by DAY TWO.

- NO BATTLE FOR DAY ONE, JUST FLEE AND EXPLORE!!

- your utmost goal of early exploration is to find the best spot for a base camp as soon as possible before winter sets in.

Therefore, time is of the essence. Do not constantly wasting your day time chopping trees, killing spiders, too much grass and twigs gathering, too much stone and gold mining. You should know if what you have is enough. - IF YOU GATHERED ENOUGH FOOD TO LAST FOR TWO DAYS, COOK THEM ALL AT NIGHT. THEN GO TWO DAYS EXPLORING THE WORLD WITHOUT STOPPING EVEN AT NIGHT, JUST USE A TORCH AND AVOID BATTLES!!!
