1. Start by either hitting a tree for a spear or killing a naked in a rock fight and gathering bones.

14. If you want to log off and you don’t have a base or can’t get to one in time, you can swim out in the ocean and log off and your body will float.

21. If you stand next to a campfire and you have over 100 hunger and thirst, you will heal.
