Welcome to Repeat SMP!

Whether you're an experienced survival player or completely new to the server, this guide will help you settle in quickly and start building your adventure.


Step 1: Read the Rules#

Before doing anything else, take a few minutes to read the server rules.

Understanding the rules helps keep the community fun and enjoyable for everyone.


Step 2: Leave Spawn#

Spend a little time exploring the world before choosing a place to settle.

Try to find an area where you'll have enough room to build your base and expand later.


Step 3: Gather Resources#

Your first priorities should be:

  • Punch a tree
  • Craft basic tools
  • Collect food
  • Mine stone
  • Build a temporary shelter
  • Find coal and iron

Don't worry about building anything huge yet.


Step 4: Set Your Home#

Once you've found a place you'd like to return to, save your location.

Use:

/sethome

Later, you can return instantly using:

/home
