Island Orientation #1 - Beds, Rebirth and Saving.


Welcome Survivalists!

This is your first island orientation, listen closely as this is one of the most important!

Beds!


One of the first things you'll need to set-up to thrive is the humble bed. It's also one of the first things on your crafting tree. On the topic of trees, you will need some palm leaves and grass to craft the most basic 'flimsy bed'. Don't forget to also craft your sheets to go on top, the islands nights are very chilly!



Saving

To save your game in The Survivalists you'll need to first craft one of these beds. Then like any good bed, it likes to be slept in. Once you drift off to sleep for the first time this will then save the game for you. Fancy that!



Rebirth

You'll want to sleep in a bed before you croak in the wilderness - maybe after becoming a tiger's chew toy! Why? Well - when coming around you'll return to the last place you slept and if not you start back where you first shipwrecked on the island. You could have a very long walk, swim or maybe crawl to where you've dropped all your items.



Better Beds!

Upgrading your bed won't just give you a better nights sleep! But those extra winks will make you become stronger, just look at the benefits of a lightweight bed vs a flimsy bed.


Islanders, we hope you've taken in all of these pointers and remember sleep is very important to become a great survivalist.

Sleep to succeed!
