Welcome everybody! In this guide we will talk about how to create your character, how to create your world, basic craftment and survival tips for your first night.
Alright. Let's start with;
Character Creation
Open terraria and click ''Single Player'', then click ''Create Character''. You will see a menu about your character customisation. In this screen, you can customise your characters hair, eyes, skin, clothes, gender and game difficulty. When you are done, click ''Create'' and name your character.Game Difficulty
There are 3 options for game difficulty. They are;
- Softcore: You drop money on death.
- Mediumcore: You drop money and items on death.
- Hardcore: Your character dies for good, you can't revive again.
World
When you are done with character creation, select your character and click ''Create World''. Choose your world's size and name your world. It will take a minute or two. Is it done? Okay then lets start our adventure!
Ready To Play!
So far we've created our character and world. Now it's time to play. Select your character and your world. When the game loads, you will start the game. Okay now we are in Terraria World.
As you start, the guy next to you will attract your attention. He is our ''Guide''. He doesn't fight, doesn't dig, doesn't die doesn't do anything. If you click on him, he will give you random advices.
Now focus on your hotbar. It is at the top of the screen. Wooden Sword in 1, Wooden Pickaxe in 2 and Wooden Axe in 3. As you can guess we use sword to fight the monsters, pickaxe to dig dirts-mugs-stones-mines and the axe to chop trees.
As it is early morning in the game when we start in our new world, there are not strong enemies around. Only small slimes. They don't deal too much damage but still be careful to kill and not to touch them if any of them gets close. They drop ''Gel'' upon death which we use to craft torches. If there are no enemies nearby, start collecting some woods. Get your axe and go near a tree. Press left click and start hitting to the same spot of the tree. When you chop it, acorns and woods will drop. Collect them all and chop some more trees.
When you have like 150 woods, look for a flat place to build your house.
Build Your House!
Building and expanding your house is one of the funniest thing to do in Terraria. Start with the floor. Press ESC and place your woods to your Hotbar. Select woods and left click on the dirt to place your floor. When you are done, build your walls the same way. As you build your framework of the house, press ESC, find ''Work Bench'', left click on it once and place it on your Hotbar. Place it on a appropriate place in your house. If you need to craft basic things, move next to the Work Bench and press ESC. On the left you will see what items you can craft with the resources you have on your character. Go next to the bench, craft some ''Wood Wall'' and place them all over your house so at night zombies and other monsters can't spawn in your house. When you are done with it, craft ''Door''s and chop 3 squares of wood from your door places since doors cost 3 spaces. After that craft some ''Torch''es to light around for night time. For that you will need gels and woods. As you craft and place your torches place a ''Table'' and a ''Chair'' for the house to keep our ''Guide'' in the house when it's night. If the house is too small, not fully covered, not lighted or doesn't have at least 2 furnitures, guide will keep opening the doors at night and won't accept the house.
Okay if you built your house and survived your first night, you are ready for the upcoming adventurers of Terraria. Have Fun!
