Spawn

The spawn is where new players appear, and where you reappear after dying. It is located deep under Junetown, and built mostly by scuti.

There you can encounter:

• the FAQ in French, English and Spanish
• ovens and machines for making wheat, flour, wood, leaves and lemons
• shops for obtaining basic stuff from the items you can get from the machines
• tutorials about farming, animals, hostiles and mesecon
• teleporters to Junetown and Olive Town

Light Levels and Underground Farming

In the red hall, the first room on the right demonstrates an underground farm. There is also a glass door to a pictographic explanation of light levels and the amount of light plants need in order to grow.

in-game, light intensity is represented with a number from 0 (complete darkness) to 16 (direct sunlight). Artificial sources of light can be used to raise crops underground. Typically, crops from farming: require a light level of 13 in order to grow while rhubarb and wheat can tolerate light levels of 12. At a light level of 14, a Dirt node can be converted into a Dirt With Grass node.
