1. Finish the exact pack setup
Install the official ATMons profile linked from the AshRun join guide. Let the pack finish loading before connecting; assembling a partial mod list by hand will not match the server.
2. Open the in-game starter route
Run /start. AshRun’s live onboarding flow walks through travel, a camp home, a claim, and a next objective. You can reopen it later, so there is no need to memorize the whole pack at spawn.
3. Pick a responsible base area
The starter route offers /rtp for overworld travel. Before building, check the map for nearby claims and leave sensible space around another player’s project. Avoid treating the resource world as permanent storage or a long-term home.
4. Set a return point
Stand at your camp and use /sethome camp. The onboarding route then gives you a direct /home camp return path while you explore.
5. Claim before you invest
Open the FTB Chunks map with M and claim the chunks covering your first camp. Claims protect block editing and interaction by default; the claims and chunk-loading guide explains the exact current limits.
6. Choose one next objective
Pick the part of ATMons you actually want to learn first: quests and trainer progression, Pokémon collecting, a small technology line, a build, or the player economy. For trading and rewards, read the GTS, hunts, and economy guide. For species-specific routes, use the AshRun Pokémon database.
A sensible first-hour checklist
- Connect with the exact current ATMons profile.
- Run
/start. - Choose a base area away from existing claims.
- Set
/sethome camp. - Claim the camp in FTB Chunks.
- Pick one quest, build, Pokémon, or economy goal.
