That's why you should dig up, but not STRAIGHT up, ie dig a staircase. Then it will at least be relatively easy to cut off the water or lava, so long as you're quick enough.Kalezian said:
I bring a pre-made workbench, stove, and chest with me when exploring. You never know when you'll need to hunker down for a bit and make an outpost. A favorite thing to do is make super awesome diamond gear, put it in a chest and bury the chest somewhere random. I'm a twisted soul.
Don't forget a stack of unprocessed wood, just in case you run out of sticks for torches and/or pickaxes.MintyNinja said:
I usually just make diamonds into blocks and store them in my home
I might be able to make a small tower out of them soon...
I usually build one thing, then make another world. I wouldnt recommned it, ive lost all my favourite places due to that. I should really stop....just as soon as I fnd a decent snow world
my solution is simple
i travel underground, i have several houses but they are all connected by a set of underground tunnels begining at my giant tower that can be seen from miles away with tons of burning netherack around it as a beacon
i find my way back to I-max Tower, i can get anywhere
i imagine it took a while to dig all those tunnels though so this method isnt recommended for everyone

I have no idea how during my travels across the internet I've never seen that.ClassicJokester said:
But that is awesome.
Which is why I use tunnels in the nether to connect all of my main landmarks, which I usually build far away from each other.I Max95 said:
just use a converter instead of the fail google this guy sent you. also the euro is pretty low now so now is the time to buy games. ^^ClassicJokester said:
oh and i also like having dark portals around places, but mainly i can find my way back by all the towers i've built around.

People always say "what do you like most?"ClassicJokester said:
OT: I always start building my fort centered exactly on my spawn point, so when I do get a compass it will point straight home. Said fort always goes straight up into the sky so I don't need the compass most of the time. The easiest thing to do is make a 2x1 tower of dirt straight up into the air as high as possible, then you can just dig yourself down, leaving a 1x1 tower that's really hard to miss.
I make a 3 stone tall pillar for markers and a L shaped one for a dungeon, usually I top them with a torch for extra visibility.
Also there's cartograph a awesome program that shows you the world you're in.
My world so far:
I haven't played it in a while so all the trees are same-y but I was trying to explore as much as I could on the surface...which is my why world is 35MB...

Used to happen to me quite a bit. I've lost like five homes because I failed to make a lighthouse or some roads or something before I was killed or went out to look for some stuff I might need.
Basically what I do to find my way around is to plant torches and build roads whenever I explore.
Also, as a measure of safety so I can travel amongst my various buildings and outposts at night, I build glass tunnels connecting all my lighthouse towers.

I simply recall everything about the area that I'm digging in/traveling in. Should I be above ground, then I make a straight line for my home afterward; if below ground then I simply retrace my steps to the entrance.
Though, past your first few extended expeditions deep underground you'll find that you'll have acquired many hundred lines of red dust; which, given it's convenient pick up and put down rate, makes useful guidelines should you consistently find yourself disorientated deep underground.

That's quite impressive, you should use cartograph to take a few pics to show off. It can show you the level from the top, oblique, night, day and even the cave systems.
