Gathering Resources Outside the Castle Walls
Planning Your Gathering Routes
The custom terrain surrounding Stonehill Castle provides varied biomes and resources. Before heading out, identify which materials you need most: wood from trees, stone from hillsides, or food from animals. Plan a route that minimizes backtracking and keeps you within sight of the castle so you can retreat quickly if needed.
Efficient Resource Collection
1. Bring a wooden axe for trees and a stone pickaxe for stone blocks
2. Collect wood from nearby forests first—it's essential for tools and fuel
3. Mine stone from exposed hillsides and cliff faces
4. Hunt animals in open grassland areas for food and materials
5. Gather dirt and sand from lower terrain for building projects
6. Return to the castle before nightfall with your supplies
Safety Tips
Always stay aware of your surroundings and listen for hostile mob sounds. The castle's walls are visible from most locations in the custom terrain, so use them as a navigation landmark. If you're caught outside at dusk, sprint back toward the gates rather than building a temporary shelter.
