So you just bought OHOL and want to know how to git gud? Good thing this guide is here!
First things first do you have discord? If you do great! Here is a link to the official OHOL discord they are more active than the forums and usually helpful! https://discord.gg/hpJcTtBsA4
Secondly, onetech is incredibly useful for crafting recipes find it here! https://onetech.info/
Okay now for the important stuff!
Feel like the fov is really small? Same! Thankfully there are plenty of mod options to help you! Ask in the discord for the links! I personally use hetuw but wondible's is amazing too!
Now onto my list of basic advice!!!
1. Learn about yum! If you pick up food it will either say meh or yum depending on if you've ate it before or not! Only eat foods that say yum unless you are starving! Yum food give you way more food
2. Ask for help!!! We would much rather you ask us for help than try to do something you don't know by yourself! Some things can be really hard to figure out and you can usually always find someone willing to help!
3. Basic communication! When you are a baby and starving say "F" to be fed! The amount of letters you can type depends on your age! "Y" is yes "N" is no trying to communicate beyond those 3 as a baby is kind of pointless. Please be mindful before you turn 1 every time you talk you cry so say if you were trying to say "Hi I'm new" you would cry for every individual letter and that can be a teensy bit grating on peoples nerves when every baby does it in a nursery full of bbs! (Might just be me though)
4. Don't click on bear caves! You do not want to have a picnic with Yogi you will become the main course!
5. The best tasks you can do as a new player are farming, making clothes, cooking, and tending animals!
How do I do that?
Farming:
1. Find a bowl
2. Fill it with soil or water
3. For soil find a hardened row and click on it while holding the bowl for water find a dry seeded row and click on it while holding the bowl
4. For soil find a hoe and click on the row you put soil on then add seeds
Clothing:
Cotton clothes
1. Find a bowl
2. Fill a bowl with berries and 1 carrot
3. Find a sheared domestic sheep
4. Click on the sheep
5. Wait until the sheep grows wool
6. Find shears and click on sheep with them
7. Pick up wool and use spindel on it to turn it into balls of thread
8. Combine balls of thread into balls of yarn
9. If you have a loom put balls of yarn onto it until its full then use shears
10. Depending on what type of clothes you want to make use shears or needle and thread
Fur clothes
1. Find a snare, sharp rock, burdock, and flat rock
2. Put burdock on flat rock use the sharp rock on it
3. Put snare on rabbit hole (Only the ones where you can see rabbits)
4. Use the flat rock on snared hole
5. Wait for a rabbit to get trapped and die
6. Pick up rabbit skin it with flint chip
7. Combine multiple furs to make different types of clothes
8. Use a needle and thread to turn the furs into clothes
Cooking:
Pies are the most basic cooking to learn and also one of the most important. It uses a combination of carrots, berries, rabbit, and mutton depending on what type of pie you want to make
1. Find 3-6 bowls, a bucket of water, threshed wheat, a sharp stone, a round stone, 4 plates, kindling, a long straight shaft, and your choice of pie fillings listed above
2. Put wheat into a bowl and use round stone on it
3. Get a bowl of water and combine it with a bowl of flour
4. Place onto plates
5. Fill other bowls with filling choices and use sharp stone on them
6. Place fillings in pies
7. Place kindling in an adobe oven
8. Use a long straight shaft on fire then the oven to light it
9. After fire in oven goes out use the uncooked pies on the oven to cook them
Animals:
The most basic animal you will find is sheep so I'll only be covering those for now
1. Find a bowl
2. Fill a bowl with berries and 1 carrot
3. Find a sheared domestic sheep
4. Click on the sheep
And with all those things learned you've completed your introduction make sure to be nice to each other!
(Vets feel free to add any advice remember to be nice though we don't wanna scare these guys away!)
(I'll be adding more to the guide eventually whenever I get motivation)

In new towns its important to feed as many mouths as possible each cook
Pies, as joe pointed out, are important because they create three food units per pie and there are multiple pies for yum multiplier
Pies are as follows:
berry
carrot
rabbit
mutton
berry carrot
berry rabbit
berry carrot rabbit
rabbit carrot
Other high yield foods include:
popcorn (grow corn, use sharp stone or flint on it to shuck, let it dry, put in bowl, use on fire)
green beans (plant beans and then use a bowl on them before they go dry)
turkey (shoot turkey, use flint on turkey, put on plate, put in oven [always last cause it takes forever] slice with knife)
turkey broth crock (after a turkey is done you put all the bones on the bone plate, put in a crock, fill with bowl of water, light kindling, wait for coals, place crock on coals)
stew crock (plant squash, put squash on plate, smash with axe, put chunks in crock
add dried corn kernels by putting a dried corn in a bowl and using flint on it then add to crock
soaked beans -- you fill a bowl with dried beans picked individually
use round stone on it to crush, use crushed bean bowl on a plate, use bean plate on bowl now they are cleaned
now fill another bowl with water and use water bowl on bean bowl, then use an empty bowl on the water-bean bowl now they are soaked
add soaked beans to crock
add water bowl to crock
put stew crock onto hot coals just like soup
Turkey is easily the best thing making hunting very high yield
You can also shoot and butcher wild mouflon and wild boar for pork and mutton (butchering requires a knife)
Mutton is used for pies and can be cooked directly in the oven, pork can be put in a bowl and cooked over coals to make carnitas
You can also use mouflon hides as clothing
You can also shoot and skin wolves to make wolf hats, which are apparently the best hats for warmth (warmth makes your hunger go slower)
You can also shoot canada geese which can be skinned and cooked directly in the oven for two bites which is also high yield
You can gather canada goose eggs which can be made into omelets by putting a flat stone on coals then placing the egg on the hot stone and using a plate on the egg after
While out you can gather clay or make a stone hatchet and chop different branches into kindling
Bows and arrows can all be made from wild ingredients
You can also gather rope
Thread = milk weed used on milk weed
Rope = thread used on thread
Bow = grab yew branch, use sharp stone on yew branch, add rope
Arrow = cut sapling with sharp stone, use thread on sapling, click a canada goose to get feather, use flint on feather, add cut feather to tied shaft, use sharp stone on flint=arrowhead add that
Finally, another critical role is rabbit hunting
stakes = sharp stone use on straight branch from maple tree three times
snare = rope + stakes
baited stone = Find burdock root, use sharp stone on burdock root, put burdock root on a flat stone, use sharp stone on baited stone
rabbit = use snare on rabbit hole with rabbit, use baited stone on snared rabbit hole, wait
you skin rabbit with flint
rabbit meat can be put on a skewer and cooked over coals and is used for pies and the fur is used to make clothing, backpacks, pouches, and arrow quivers

This is exactly what we need to expand player base. Maybe also make a guide on how to use the in game recipe helper. The one where you can hold an item and press tab to cycle possible uses, and the one where you can use /snare and then game hovers in game arrows over items you need for that item next to make a snare. Then a plain / to end the helper. Jason does not explain this very well in the tutorial. We can use a guide on these powerful in game learn as you go learning tools.
This site is also one of my favorites for learning about the game. It explains in more detail then the onetech in many areas.
