Setting Up Your First Base Inside Stonehill Castle
Choosing Your Room
Walk through the castle's interior and explore the available chambers. Look for a room with good natural light from windows and space for a bed, crafting table, and storage chests. Ground-floor rooms near the main hall are convenient for quick access to supplies, while upper tower rooms offer better defense against mobs.
Establishing Your Base
1. Place your bed in your chosen room to set your spawn point
2. Gather wood from outside the castle walls and craft a crafting table
3. Place the crafting table and begin making basic tools and a furnace
4. Stack chests along one wall for organized storage
5. Set up a furnace for smelting ores and cooking food
6. Create a small farm area or storage room for gathered resources
Securing Your Space
Close doors to your room and consider placing torches along hallways to prevent mob spawning. The castle's thick walls already provide excellent protection, but securing your personal chamber ensures mobs won't interrupt your sleep or destroy your supplies. Keep your most valuable items in chests away from windows.
