Okay so i need to ask: do you get sticks only from punching trees or is there a better way?

Yes there is a better way

On the subject of food,

thanks that was very helpful

Well i just went my first 2 nights without seeing a single spider. so I was hoping there would be a way that I could get one before night. I guess my expectations are still stuck in the older versions of the game

have you found a way to get string without spiders?

have you been able to get stone?

The clue he gives about tying things together should help if you can get something to tie with. I also had a zombie come out of a cave with an iron shovel. Still have no idea what I'm doing

Are there new ways of finding/producing string? i seem to be in short supply

Edit
After finding string in the traditional manner, and have obtained an axe and shovel. I need help getting planks and dirt

Well I was going to be productive this weekend, but I guess that's out the window.I'm going to bed now - not worrying about anything.

I have hardercore spawned several times and have not landed in the same place yet.

I just installed this and it does not seem to be working for me. I installed it with mcpatcher 5.0.3 and removed the readme file. Am I missing something?

Don't underestimate the value of spider webs to slow them down.

I have found melon seeds in the mineshaft below my base at spawn

I spawned in view of a live village on 2 separate occasions.

My question now is - I build a nether portal at one of these locations. what happens when I die now?

I have realized that hardercore spawn now encourages you to build up beyond a compass. I know that my base is surround by a lot of water so boat travel is a likely necessity. So I am growing hemp. I will probably build up to a full windmill because I will need to make another sail if I ever spawn he...

So I just had my first death with Hardercore spawn and I'd like to report my experience. I don't understand anything really yet but we may work it out between us. The developments that I believe may be relevant for my progress are: 1. Diamond ingots/pick created 2. Cauldron Created 3. Nether Portal ...

If the first gearbox powered by the windmill is receiving redstone power it will stop and will not break in a storm.

Cant wait!

I like this a lot. can't wait to give it a try.

That would be amazing.

I just ran the sanity check and it worked great. At work now so I can't launch the full game. Thank you so much for this.

EDIT
Just launched the game and the skin loads perfectly.

I am really looking forward to the hardercore spawning. I often play on the same seed so this should freshen things up a bit.

Any objections? I think it sounds fine. is there any chance of including Caevin's fix to put them all on a grid? or something like it? With the boat changes, finding a particular point to create lined up maps is extremely difficult. If not, I understand, I don't want to push the map thing too far

I agree, and I apologize for getting my back up. The crazy thing is, no one(including me) has really said anything about how the new versions have affected this slump that many of us experienced.
