I died while mining, and can't seem to find my way back home. A lot of good stuff is at my house, but I don't know how to find it. What should I do, make a new home or keep searching?
Use a minecraft mapping program such as Cartograph or MCEdit to find your house, or just keep searching. NEVER GIVE UP! NEVER GIVE IN ! NEVER G.. oh **** it.
Make a new home, or better yet, if your home is near spawn make a compass. If you do make a new home, write down the coordinates by pressing F3 (or if mac, Fn+F3) and write down the X and Z. Next time your lost just travel to those coordinates.
Make a new home?
