    You should add to this to never have any cobwebs, its really annoying to get knocked into one.

    Nice guide! These seem like pretty good maps, it would be nice if you or someone taught me how to make trees, because I absolutely suck at making dem... I know there's some in the pictures, but step by step guides could spice some things up.
