Overview
This Guide will tell you the things needed to survive the world of Nomad
Getting started
First what you’ll want to do is find somewhere close to something like a small town or some where, where you will be able to find axes for wood, pickaxes for mining nodes and food and water for yourself.
If you already have an axe and a pickaxe skip to the next section but if you dont keep or reading
where can I find an Axe and a Pickaxe ?
You can find Axes and Pickaxes in a few places but the best place to find them is in a construction site. In the construction site you will also be able to find Hard hats, Clothing, Weapons and sometimes wood.
Gathering Materials and Starting to build
Now that you have the axe or pickaxe equip the axe and walk up to a tree and begin hitting it with the axe (Left-Click). If you are using the axe you should be able to see logs of wood coming from the tree once you have stopped hitting the tree look around the area where you were collecting wood and press E to pick up the Logs.
Now you have all of the wood you can hold press the TAB key to open up your inventory. Look at the top and you should see a little section next to Character that says something along the lines of ‘Crafting’. When you have clicked onto the crafting menu, find where you wish to build then go back into your crafting menu and craft a foundation. Then when you have found you ‘perfect building location’ press E to place the foundation. Once you’ve placed the foundation go back into the crafting menu and begin places walls around the foundation buit make sure to leave a gap to place the doorframe. Now Yet again go into the crafting menu and place a door in the foor frame and create yourself a door code. Don’t worry you don’t have to remember the code you can simply type it in once and you can just walk upto the door and press E to open it.
Now that you have your basic frame you can walk up to your walls and doorframe press E and click the upgrade tab and aslong as you have extra wood it will upgrade what you select except the door as thatt can only be upgraded with metal.
Upgrading and Expanding
If you are happy with you build layout, you can begin to upgrade you wooden walls to stone.
To get stone you will need to find a rock like shape called a Mining Node. This is where your Pickaxe you aquired earlier will come into use.
You should notice that like the tree things will fly out of the Node but with the Node there is a chance you will get Metal Ore as well. You will need a Furnace to smelt the ore, It usually takes around two minutes for the Ore to smelt.
When you have your stone Like you did earlier, go upto whatever you want to upgrade press E on it and click the Upgrade tab and aslong as you have the stone, it should upgrade.
If you chose to smelt the ore like the walls you can walk upto the door and click the upgarde tab to turn it to Metal.
Now if you choose to expand before you upgarde i recomend keeping what you have built so far but insted of breaking down your walls, build around what you have built to not only add more protection for yourself and your items but this will also expand your base very quickly. Also try to add more doorways and doors where ever you can so that it takes longer for who ever is trying to steal your ‘hard-earned goodies’. This could also give you a better chance of killing them depending on how you have chosen to build you base.
Adding Defences
Adding defences like barbed wire and explosive traps is another good way to keep people out and away from your base. Like everything else you can craft these through the crafting menu that you were using earlier.
Another good idea would be to add a sleaping bag somewhere safe in your house so if you die you will respawn back inside of your base instead of having to run back or find your base.
Raiding Bases
if you’re the kind of person who gets bored easily or just wants to annoy people why not try your hand at raiding people.
If you are lucky enough to have found explosives when looting millitary bases then go into your crafting tab and build some explosives to quicken up the process of getting through the walls of enemy or your friends bases.
Another good idea when raiding bases is to bring along some friends so that your chance of succsessfully raiding your desired base will go up.
If you have raided the base of your choosing you will want to have a backpack with you so you can carry as much loot as possible but also be aware that, that place will be wanting revenge on whoever just raided him so keep a look out for suspicious players or just be that guy and kill every player you see
