 ===== Step 1 - Fire up a template =====
-Before you start any world building.. run the game, select Create World, choose a template and have a run about a bit. Then lets try your first command - type :
+Step 1: Fire up the game client, click the little cog icon, select 'Enable Frontend World Builder Menu' and click 'Ok'. This will activate a new option on the front-end labelled 'Create'.
+Select this, then 'Create New World', name it, choose a template (The Blank one will do for now) and have a run about a bit. Then lets try your first command - type :
  ** *say Hello World **
 If red text appears, then woot, You're a god.
-FIXME: The create world option mentioned here exists only in The Universal client, not in A tractor. To get a world started without TU is a different process..
 ===== Step 2 - Try out a few commands =====
