If this is your first time on the server, start here and complete everything in one pass. This is the default onboarding route we recommend for players, helpers, and staff handoffs.

1 First 10 minutes
Connect
Add play.aowmc.com in your client and connect using Java 21565 or Bedrock 19132.
Get your baseline
Run /guide, then /spawn to confirm your first server load is stable.
Protect early
Set /sethome home and hold a golden shovel before any permanent build activity.
Map sanity
Open map.aowmc.com and memorize a simple route back to spawn.
2 First 60-minute checklist
01) Confirm crossplay identity
If you are on Bedrock, in-game names usually appear with a dot prefix like
.Steve.
02) Build your command memory
Run
/sethome home, /home home, and /claimslist before any major work.
03) Run economy loop
Open
/ah and visit one safe local player market before starting survival trade routines.
04) Recovery setup
Open
/deaths and /backtrack as your default recovery sequence for long trips.
05) Keep things tidy
Keep your base footprint compact until a trust network is in place with safe neighbors.
3 25-minute starter route
| Time | Action | Why this matters |
|---|---|---|
| 0–3 min | Connect and open /guide | Checks core server systems and chat command path. |
| 3–8 min | /spawn then /sethome home | Ensures return path and command baseline. |
| 8–15 min | Scout map + check nearby safe zones | Avoids accidental claim overlap and grief hotspots. |
| 15–25 min | Place one secure temporary base and invite one trusted person | Prevents accidental inventory loss and ownership mistakes. |
