Settling in a Ruined City
Finding a Ruined City
Ruined Cities are larger variants of Moss Ruins, containing multiple small ruins clustered together. Use the same locate command to find structures:
`
/locate moss_ruins:moss_ruins
`
When you arrive at coordinates, explore the area—if you see several connected ruins instead of just one, you've found a Ruined City.
Using It as a Base
Ruined Cities are ideal for early-game bases because:
- Multiple chests provide abundant loot spread across the site
- Existing structures offer partial walls and roofs to build upon
- Better loot quality, including potential iron finds
Clear out hostile mobs, secure the perimeter with torches, and use the existing ruins as a foundation. You can expand from here or repurpose the structures for storage, crafting, and sleeping areas.
