</div>

== Step 1: Leave Spawn ==
Start by heading out into the world and finding a place to begin.

'''Useful commands:'''
* <code>/spawn</code> – Return to spawn
* <code>/rtp</code> – Random teleport
* <code>/travel</code> or <code>/wild</code> – Travel out into the world

Take a little time to explore before settling down.

== Step 2: Find a Place to Live ==
Choose a location where you want to build your base.

A good starter location should be:
* Safe
* Easy to get back to
* Large enough to expand later
* Somewhere you want to protect

Try not to build too close to other players unless you are planning to work together.

== Step 3: Set Your Home ==
Once you find a good spot, set your home right away.

'''Command:'''
* <code>/sethome base</code>

To return later, use:
* <code>/home base</code>

Setting a home early saves a lot of time and helps you avoid getting lost.

== Step 4: Claim Your Land ==
One of the most important things new players should do is protect their base.

GlowCraft uses a land claim system to help prevent griefing and theft.

'''To make a claim:'''
* Use a '''golden shovel'''
* Select two corners of your land
* This creates a protected area around your base

Claims help protect:
* Buildings
* Chests and storage
* Farms
* Animals
* Decoration

If you plan to stay somewhere, claim it as soon as possible.

== Step 5: Gather Resources ==
Once your home is set up, start gathering materials to build and progress.

GlowCraft includes resource worlds so players can collect materials without permanently draining the main world.

These worlds reset regularly, which helps keep resources available for everyone.

Focus on gathering:
* Wood
* Stone
* Food
* Iron
* Coal
* Basic building materials

This will give you a strong start for tools, storage, and expansion.

== Step 6: Start Earning Money ==
Money is useful for many things on GlowCraft, so it’s smart to start earning early.

Common beginner methods include:
* Jobs
* Selling items
* Player shops
* Events and rewards

A great place to start is:
* <code>/jobs</code>

Jobs are one of the easiest and most reliable ways for new players to begin making money.

== Step 7: Earn Glow Crystals ==
'''Glow Crystals''' are one of GlowCraft’s special currencies.

They can be earned from things like:
* Voting
* Events
* Server activities
* Farming and fishing systems
* Other rewards across the server

Glow Crystals are used for special items, shops, and server features.

You can check your balance with:
* <code>/crystals</code>
