Sorry, took it down to update to 11.2 and forgot to restart it. I will get it back up tonight and post here. Sad thing is I haven't really tried it yet...got side tracked.

Wow, this one is definitely a bit tougher. Between the craft quality mechanics which are cool and some new annoying bugs, survival was pretty challenging. Set up a small platform near some water in the light woodlands? biome. So some things to consider...
1. One, it seems they have an issue with some invisible blocks, trunk tips in particular. If a zombie touches a non-upgraded spike, it disappears, does no damage to anyone, but still occupies space. I am updating the xml file tonight and restarting the server. This will fix the problems with all future spikes but nothing for the ones that are already down.
2. The new bow is a one shot kill to the head of most zombies. It takes a while to get the aim down though and the range is pretty short. It's cheap though.
3. Early tools should be used til destroyed. As you level you will craft better tools so no point in repairing a crappy one.
4. CAVES.
5. Ladders are very dodgy right now, I would advise against their use. On several occasions, I reached the top of a ladder and then flew 50 ft into the air. Also keep in mind right now the shortest of falls will break your leg...so take it easy.
6. Fog has been added in, it looks pretty good and leads to some beautiful sun rises. It is also the first step towards dynamic weather.
7. Blunderbuss is pretty sweet.
8. You can make a stone shovel but no stone pick(sp?). Until you find some iron I think digging in is out of the question. I have thought about fortifying a cave but since I believe zombies can spawn down there it could be an issue.
9. Getting set up for water was pretty simple for me last night but food is a problem. You do have to eat and drink far less in this version but you have to work for food.
All I got right now. I will bring the server down briefly to reset that xml tonight.

There is a cave down by the water that is small but full of iron.

I'm not on 7d as much as before because I'm not on my pc as much. I will probably play some tomorrow night .... Rockets game on tonight. I know snappy has been playing a lot of elite. Maybe we should find a 7ds night?
