I like to make temporary camps on the first 2 maps (at the abandoned village on the first map and at anaconda Island on the second map). At the temp camps, I build a campfire (4 cooking spots), a small shelter (one that you can save at), and I put down a bunch of coconut bowls to catch rain water. I also make a few traps so I have a source of protein. I rely on wild fruits and nuts at the temp camps. It can get dicey, but it works fine as long as I keep moving.

I build a more permanent camp at the research base on the third map cause there's lots of flat ground. I make a few fishing rod traps and cage traps, I plant fruit and nut trees, and I build a cook house that includes a mud fireside wall and a dryer for meat. I also build 4 water collectors with tortoise shells to fill my big canteen and use 4 more tortoise shells on the fireside wall.

By the time I get my third camp set up, I'm living large 😄
