Description

🏠 Beginner's Delight - A Safe Start for New Adventurers

Survive your first night with a ready-made starter base!

Beginner's Delight automatically generates a small starter house at the world spawn point, giving new players a safe shelter with essential supplies to begin their Minecraft adventure.


✨ Features

🏡 Starter House at Spawn

  • Automatic Generation: A small wooden house appears at the world spawn point when a new world is created
  • Survival Essentials: Includes a bed, chest with starter items, and torch lighting
  • Multiple Designs: Randomly selects from several house variants for variety
  • Terrain Adaptive: Placement adjusts to the local terrain surface

📦 Starter Supplies

The chest in the starter house contains helpful items for early game:

  • Food (bread, apples)
  • Basic wooden tools
  • Torches for lighting

🎮 Multiplayer Ready

  • Works on both singleplayer and multiplayer servers
  • All players spawn at the same location near the starter house
  • The house is generated only once — no duplicates

🏘️ Village Mode (Optional)

  • Grows as players join: Enable with /beginnersdelight village enable and a village forms around the world spawn
  • A house per player: Each new player gets their own house, connected to the village by dirt paths
  • Decoration buildings: Wells, sheds, storehouses, and farms appear as the village grows
  • Respawn at home: Players can respawn at their own house
  • Configurable: Adjust plot size, path generation, and respawn behavior in a config/beginnersdelight.toml file, reloadable in-game with /beginnersdelight config reload

🔧 Safe to Remove

  • Built entirely with vanilla blocks (oak wood, cobblestone, etc.)
  • The structure remains intact even after removing the mod
  • No custom blocks or items that would cause issues

📖 How It Works

  1. Create a New World: Start a new world with the mod installed
  2. Spawn Safely: You'll spawn next to a small house with supplies
  3. Get Started: Open the chest for starter items and sleep in the bed to set your spawn
  4. Adventure Awaits: Head out to explore with a safe base to return to!
