Build a Sanity-Friendly Base Layout

Design Lighting and Comfort Zones

Your base should actively support sanity recovery and prevent unnecessary drain.

• Light every room thoroughly with torches, lanterns, or other light sources
• Create a dedicated bedroom with a bed as your primary recovery space
• Build a campfire area near your bed for additional mental restoration
• Avoid large dark rooms or underground spaces without lighting

Incorporate Peaceful Activities

Design your base to include spaces for sanity-restoring tasks.

• Build animal pens for breeding livestock and pets
• Create a fishing pond or canal
• Set up a farm with crops and flower pots
• Place a jukebox in a comfortable area and keep music discs nearby
• Designate a trading post near your base for easy access to villagers

Plan for Emergencies

Prepare your base to handle critical sanity situations.

• Keep cooked food stockpiled in chests near your bed
• Ensure your bedroom is always well-lit and easily accessible
• Build multiple campfires throughout your base so you're never far from one
• Create a safe room with no hostile mob spawning to retreat to during mental crises

A well-designed base becomes your sanctuary against sanity loss.
