Tutorials/Menu screen

This tutorial will help you understand and navigate the menus of Minecraft. Although they are mostly self-explanatory, some things may need explaining. If you need help navigating the menu just find the appropriate section of this tutorial.

There are two menu groups in Minecraft: The Main Menu and the Pause Menu.

Main Menu
The main menu is what you see when you first turn on the game. It allows you to choose which game type and world to play as well as access Minecraft Realms and access the game Options. There is also a button that will allow you to quit your game.

Singleplayer
The Singleplayer button, located at the top of the group of buttons on the main menu, leads you to the screen to the right. In this menu you can

Minecraft Realms
The third button on the main menu is labeled Minecraft Realms. This button allows you to, as it says, access Realms and perform all the functions that come with it.

The Main Screen
The Minecraft Realms button will take you to the "Homepage" of Realms. Here you can perform all of the basic actions associated with Realms, which are as follows:


 * See all of the Realms you own / are invited to and information about them
 * Play on a Realm
 * Buy a new Realm
 * Configure your own Realm(s)
 * Leave a Realm
 * See new invitations
 * Find out more about Realms

The majority of these functions can be carried out by clicking on a Realm and using the button group at the bottom of the screen. Invitations can be accessed via the envelope next to the Realms logo. The What is Realms? link in the upper right hand corner takes you to the Realms website where you can learn more about the program.

There is a distinct difference between the server list in the Multiplayer screen and the Realms list. Here you can see all of the basic information about the Realm you may need. The exact layout is shown here:

1. Realm name 2. Realm description 3. Realm owner's name 4. Realm owner's face 5. Realm status 6. Online players count
 * Can be changed by the owner
 * Displays green of you're the owner of that Realm, white if it's someone else's Realm.
 * Can be changed by the owner
 * Shows the current chosen username of the owner (not their UUID)
 * Can be changed by the owner changing the face of his skin
 * Has three states: Green, Red, and Gray
 * Green: Realm is online
 * Red: Realm has been closed
 * Gray: Server trouble
 * Updates constantly to show the number of players currently playing on the Realm

Invitations
Invitations can be accepted or declined via the envelope next to the Realms logo. If you have an invitation you will see a little number dancing on the envelope. If the little number is instead !!! then that means that you have more than five invitations! If you hover over the envelope a tooltip will appear. It will either say No pending invitations! or Pending invitations! If you click on this when you have some invitations, it will take to to a screen where you can accept or decline various invites.
