So where'd that zombie that fell on your head come from? The shaft was blocked. Is it like Minecraft (again) in that monsters will spawn anywhere, and he spawned under your house?

I'm guessing they don't spawn in a house with back walls. That would give the back walls a purpose beyond pure aesthetics.

[captnduck]

@thebigJ1er Yep thats correct. Enemies usually spawn offscreen, in the dark. The top of that shaft was offscreen, and in the dark, and it had no back walls, so there.

<3 the funny accent dude XD It's "care" not pronounced as in ch just as in c :)

[captnduck]

@HandOfCode Yeah yeah i know. I forget at times.

at 25:15 he says the purple stuff is corruption, but I think it might be glowing mushroom grass that the glowing mushrooms sprout from. I could be wrong.

[captnduck]

@tehdelicatepuma It's corruption. I planted a corruption seed there in the tower made by one of my friends.

[reddog22000]

YES! If anyone could do a quality Let's Play / tutorial of Terraria, it's you. Wheeee!

"HTML colour system"

It's proper name is RGB, as in Red, Green, Blue just to let you know...

[noaccount4]

Is it good to plant corruption everywhere? :D

[scootsie119]

u remind me of Dom joley of Trigger happy TV, well u sound like him, especially when he uses his fake accent. its not a bad thing lol

Also great video, and awesome house/castle/whatever.

And i just got terreria and wonder how u play online?? is it the same as minecraft where u have to maek your own server?

@Vingdoloras

This is true, they seem to spawn even from a crack between two different background walls. Also underground spots with dirt background allow enemies to spawn, I learned the same lesson digging shafts straight down.

[ARUCARDFTEPES]

You could also combine alchemy and crafting by simply putting a bottle on a craftbench.

And yeah, the purple grass at the top of that building is corruption, the blueish grass below was a mushroom farm. It also looked to be purposefully stunted?

[Vingdoloras]

Are you playing on a public server? I'd really love to join you and your friends ;-)

[Vingdoloras]

@captnduck Enemies don't spawn "in the dark". You can have pitch black rooms, as long as you built a back wall in the room, no monsters will ever spawn (teleporting enemies can still teleport inside, though!).

I'm sad, my computer says it can handle Terraria's graphics but it can't...
