So if you've been playing in one basic area for a rather long time and you have depleted all your ore resources, well, this is for you!
Step one: Preparing for the inevitable
The first item you need to survive is wood, but this is for experienced users who have depleted the area around them of most of their resources. You first need to make sure you have the following items:
- 1 or 2 iron buckets
- at least one sapling of some type
- access to at least one source lava & water
- melon or wheat seeds
- a farm of some type
Now the first thing you need to do is create a 'safe zone' (i.e., somewhere lava cannot set things on fire) and a tree farm. With your iron buckets place lava on one side of a hole around 3 or 5 meter wide, now on the opposite side place water this will create cobblestone which can be used to make axes or hoes. A tree farm should be set up so as to gain maximum yield harvest so place your saplings depending on your tree type around 3–5 meters apart. You now have a rather steady source of wood for repairs and pickaxes or other needful things. Now (assuming you are not on peaceful) you need to have a farm of some sort. If this is a wheat farm the best way to go about doing this is to make an infinite water supply.
If it is a wheat farm it should be set up as large as you care to take it so as to have max yield. If it is a melon farm the following should be used:
With these you should be living indefinitely. Good luck.
