Greetings, newbies and noobs of Better Than Adventure!. This page is a guide for your first few days and nights in this beta mod for Minecraft. This guide will assume that you already know the basic details of Minecraft!

Your First Day

1. Chop down some trees.

The first thing you'll want to do is locate around 3 trees and mine all of their logs. Any trees should do for now.

2. Craft some wooden planks.

Craft the logs gathered from the trees into wooden planks. Use the crafting grid in your inventory to do as such.

3. Craft a workbench.

Use 4 of the wooden planks to fill the grid and craft yourself a workbench. The workbench is the same as a crafting table, and is the most useful block you could possibly have!

4. Craft your first wooden pickaxe.

Place down the workbench and use it to craft sticks, by placing two wooden planks in a vertical column. Then, craft a wooden pickaxe by using two sticks and three wooden planks. Viola, now you have your first pickaxe

5. Craft a wooden sword.

It may be worth crafting a wooden sword as well if you prefer to take the game slowly. Otherwise, it's mostly just for the achievement. You can craft a wooden sword by using one stick and two wooden planks.

6. Mine some cobblestone.

Locate any exposed stone and mine at least 17 blocks of stone to get yourself cobblestone, using the newly crafted wooden pickaxe. If there's no exposed stone, just dig through the dirt until you find some. Just remember the golden rule; never dig straight down!

7. Craft some stone tools.

The next tier up from wooden tools are stone tools! Using cobblestone and sticks, craft yourself a stone sword, pickaxe, axe and shovel. You may need to craft yourself more sticks.

8. Gather some more wood.

Now that you have a proper axe, it'd be worth your while to find some more trees and quickly gather some more wooden planks.

9. Find some pigs and kill them for food.

You'll need food to heal yourself if you get injured. Finding some pigs and killing them with your stone sword will supply you with raw porkchops.

10. Find some sheep and gather wool.

Night is likely fast approaching by this point, and if you want a bed to sleep through the night and/or set your checkpoint to somewhere more safe, you'll need to gather some wool. Find any sheep and kill them for wool; you'll only need one.

11. Mine some coal ore.

You'll need some coal ore for both torches and fuel to cook food or smelt ores. Mountainsides will likely have exposed coal ore, but if you can't find any, just dig into the side of a hill or mountain until you find some.

12. Craft torches.

You can craft some torches with sticks and coal. You won't need a workbench for this, as it fits within the crafting grid if your inventory. Make sure to not use up all your coal!

13. Make a shelter for yourself.

Using the opening that you just mined out whilst gathering coal, you can mine yourself a shelter by digging deeper into the terrain. Then, you can place some torches to light up the room, place down your workbench and furnace, and then craft yourself a wooden door using six wooden planks. And viola, your first home!

14. Kill some zombies.

It's likely either approaching night or already night by now. In vanilla Minecraft, you would be able to craft a bed using just wooden planks and wool. However, in BTA, you'll have to face the monsters of the night in order to get the final resource necessary to craft a bed: cloth. If you aren't confident in your skill, you may be better off mining throughout the night to gather better gear. However, if you are confident, find some zombies that have spawned during the night and kill them with your sword to gather cloth!

15. Craft a bed.

Swiftly retreat to your cavern base, and craft yourself a bed using three wooden planks, one wool and two cloth. Viola! You have now survived your first night in Minecraft!
