How do I find my friends?

[nzeravla]

I just want to know how to find my steam friends once I start the game were just running around and we have no compass map or anything we just want to find each other so we can start building

You can either check the distance in the player list (hold tab), this helps to find out if you're running into the right direction, or alternatively use the console command "goto playername" to teleport to your friend (replace "playername" with the ingame name of your friend) ;)

The spanwpoint should be the same for everyone and changes only if you have slept in a bed or tent somewhere else. If you start in a new world (i.e. via P2P or dedicated Server) you start off on the same spot.

If you are on a server that already exists for some time and some of you played on it already, headed out adventuring, you should go back to the spawn point. An admin can surely help you.
