May 26, 2013 · Any other way is /give @p wood_planks 64. if you are set on a desert biome, you can also just pick bonus chest, then use what little supplies that gets you to get started. of course this could be called cheating, but really if you want to try to survive in a desert biome, without a bonus chest it's nearly impossible.

You'll need to go mining in caves to find some patches of dirt so that you can plant the saplings, but growing them in the desert won't be a problem. I'm not sure desert villages have much usable wood in the structures if any, but you can get a fair amount of oak planks and and fences if you search around for abandoned mineshafts. 1. Award ...

The Desert biome is one of the most difficult biomes for a player to survive and prosper in, owing to an extreme scarcity of essential resources in the natural environment. Typically no trees are available to make planks for even wooden tools or a crafting table. Without even basic wooden tools there is no obvious way to obtain cobblestone, and so ...
Creation: superflat vs buffet
In Java Edition, to create an infinite, endless desert to survive in, simply create a new world, change the world type to Superflat, select "Customize", select "Presets", and choose the preset “Desert”, then Done. Then, create and start the world. In Java Edition, there is an additional option called Buffet, which can generate a world more like the desert in normal Minecraft games, in which you can more easily mine for ores instead of having to raid villagesfor minerals or dig down to near be...
Creation: Bedrock Edition
In Bedrock Edition, you can select any of the world types (Infinite, Flat, or Old) and use seed templatesto pick a seed called "Desert Village".
Extra challenging options
For (greatly) added challenge, turn off generation of all structures in the world creation customized settings. Another excellent challenge, not quite so difficult, is to turn off generation of just villages and temples, but leave the generation of pillager outposts, mineshafts and strongholds. These structures are much harder to exploit than villages and temples.
Survival options
Normally if you spawn in a desert, you would try to find a more hospitable biome as soon as possible. If you have set yourself the challenge of desert only survival, that's not an option. In a desert only game, the easiest route to making progress is to find a village, desert pyramid, mineshaft, or pillager outpost. These structures have resources that are incredibly precious because they cannot be obtained anywhere else in the desert biome (you can also obtain resources from dungeons and str...
Immediate survival
Very few of the normal survival resources are available in the desert, particularly before you have found a village or temple. A different approach is needed for initial survival. During your first day, collect dirt (if you see any - there is none in a Superflat Desert), some cacti, maybe sticks, and most importantly sand. You get sticks by breaking dead bushes with your hands. This is the only source of wood in the open desert, but unfortunately, you can only obtain sticks, not wood planks....
In a desert survival situation, you generally want to avoid combat unless absolutely necessary, because you are weak compared to a normal game in almost all relevant ways: weapons, armor, equipment, and ability to recover after death. Even when you do acquire weapons, they are likely to have limited ammunition (arrows) or limited durability. Your c...
Quick summary
1. It's a diet of some raw rabbit and mostly rotten flesh (or salmon if you can find a river on a buffet world) until you can find a village 2. Save bones for bone mealto grow flowers to breed rabbits 3. Bones and rotten flesh are the only "renewable" food source outside of a village
The gory details
Thankfully, Minecraft does not consider the need of human beings for water (perhaps all the cactus takes care of hydration). However, from Day 3, if you have not yet found a village, or earlier if you have been injured (from falling or fighting mobs) you need food. In the naked desert there are few options, as most passive mobs, such as pigs and cows, cannot spawn except at villages. While sugar cane can grow in the desert (if there is water), sugar is not edible in Minecraft. You can make pu...
Rabbits
Rabbitscan sometimes be difficult to catch. Early in a Desert survival game, you'll only be able to hit them with your bare hands, but if you are persistent you can eventually kill them. If you are lucky enough to be near water, chase them into water. They lose their speed advantage in water and you catch them more easily. Of course, the loot drops into the water so be prepared to swim after them. Also, don't get lost chasing rabbits and lose your way back to your shelter. That can be fatal....
Even if you get a furnace, the supply of fuel for the furnace is extremely limited. You only have dead bushes, whether collected whole or broken into sticks, and these are non-renewable in a desert biome. Once you have broken or collected all the dead bushes in an area, you get no more fuel. And it takes a lot of sticks to power a furnace even for ...
Your starting weapon in the desert is your fist, or if you prefer, a stick or a chunk of cactus. These all do the same amount of damage and are a slow way to kill any mob. In this way you can kill single mobs, mobs that are stuck behind a defensive obstacle you have created, or maybe a wounded one that breaks through. Almost any mob at full strengt...
The desert is slightly forgiving in that it has higher ambient light levels at night. Nonetheless, monsters still spawn. Obtaining light sources in the desert is challenging. The basic light source is a torch, but these require coal or charcoal. Charcoal requires wood blocks, which are totally absent from the desert. Coal ore does exist, but mining...
The lack of planks and crafting tables prevents you from crafting a bed. As a result, you cannot reset your spawn point and you cannot sleep. As you can't set your spawn point, build a strong defensive base at or near your spawn point. If your main base is not at your spawn point, build a smaller survival shelter exactly centered on your spawn poin...
Unless you find a village or other structure containing chests, barrels, or other storage, you have no form of persistent storage and no way to create any (because there are no planks). Your personal inventory is your only persistent storage. Your personal inventory is actually quite limited. There are some considerations that arise from this: Only...
The desert is an expansive arid biome mainly consisting of sand. The surface is made entirely of sand, with sandstone generating underneath the sand. Deserts are more likely to generate in areas with high erosion values, which means that the terrain in which they generate is generally flat but with occasional hills, similar to the ones found in windswept hills biomes. Deserts can also generate ...

- Trading For Rare Items. Deserts are extremely lackluster when it comes to loot, so players should focus on setting up some trades to get their hands on necessities like leather and paper, which will allow them to build an enchantment table set up and access endgame parts of Minecraft.
- Building A Base In A Desert Biome. Unless players get lucky and find a pillager outpost or manage to get their hands on a sapling through a wandering trader for example and start a tree farm, it's likely that players won't have access to that much wood.
- Finding Bodies Of Water. Speaking of fishing, setting up a fishing farm and a successful crop farm will require players to find water. Once players have their hands on a bucket, they can start looking for water in a few different locations.
- Farm Bunnies And Crops For Food. Another key resource is passive mobs, and there aren't many at all in the desert. The only mob players will find are bunnies, which do yield food when killed.
The desert biome is one of the most difficult to survive and prosper in. If you spawn in a desert biome, you will most likely want to leave that area and relocate to a more hospitable and productive biome. For basic survival steps, so that you can live long enough to attempt to explore your way out of the desert, refer to the Immediate Survival section of this Tutorial. That tutorial is about ...
