So, you may wonder is Odynn going nuts again and suggesting something silly?! No, not really, many of us have large alliance, sometimes many deeds and sometimes even love that public deed here and there, be it a market, a social event one or one you like for reasons that are yours alone. Well the idea is simple. Allow the mayor of the deed to show (or not - turned off by default please) the upkeep remaining to their allies or freedom pals (or any specific roles). This would allow an easier management of upkeep and help us know when to drop that extra silver. Depending on devs willingness to work on it, information can be either partial (ie. days left) or complete (just like your mayor/citizen ones) money in coffers / upkeep per month (28 days in fact) / day remaining. (Knowing that informations from the later can be found by doing some maths using the first proposition). Nota. As mentionned bellow (and was not clear enough above), the idea is indeed for a new roles option.

BEEP BEEP - HERE COMES A LIVE UPDATE FROM THE WURM ONLINE TEAM; MACROS ARE STILL NOT ALLOWED. DO NOT MACRO. THAT'S ALL FOR THIS UPDATE. JBERG OUT.

+1 if it's a role option so you can set it to public, person, village etc.

I thought the village message board a great idea, kinda like a mini-forum for people to leave messages for offline players. I don't know about others, but I don't carry a paper and pen when I'm visiting neighbors and friends. Maybe the board can be stocked with them to become useful. I'm all for realism, but communication is hard enough in a global world without adding more barriers. Let alone finding a new player with the skill and tools to make the paper and ink. I know there is the recruitment board, but I'm not looking to recruit, just leave messages to others. On top of this, paper notes can not be edited.

As the title lists I am looking to sell the following Drake Set! Please PM or Post below! -= Looking for 95s obo =-

Meeting a hell hound for the first time...

A couple days ago, my friend asked me if I remembered the first place we settled in. We were there for one night, but it was where I fell in love with the game. So it made me wonder how I thought about the game back when I started, and started reading chat logs I have saved from then. What silly things did you say when you were a newbie? If you still happen to have access to those logs, do you mind sharing? I will start with an event on day 3 of my adventures in Wurm. As we walked from the portal area coming from GV, I encountered this man on a horse who I thought was an NPC. After some confusion, he set both my friend and I with some food, a lump of iron, some tools and two cows to ride... yes, cows. We laughed so much at how silly we looked riding cows, but it was epic. We settled in a water level and horribly wet area and there it was where I cut my first tree. The next day I got a boat from a kind soul and we went elsewhere (Xanadu) where I settled. I took a moment to send our fellow wurmian a chat convo: Logging started 2016-11-10 [23:32:46] <Angelklaine> hi! [23:32:46] <System> Nirav is not currently available, please try again later. [00:22:09] <Angelklaine> Hello! [00:22:20] <Angelklaine> You on? [00:43:23] <Nirav> hello [01:24:11] <Angelklaine> hey [01:24:14] <Angelklaine> sorry to bother you [01:24:36] <Nirav> s cool what's up? i keel gettinmg busy [01:24:54] <Nirav> forget to look at this [01:25:22] <Angelklaine> We got a boat from someone else and moved to another place. Found a great place to settle. We left two cows, a pig and a chicken in a pen where you showed us [01:25:51] <Angelklaine> Didnt feel right killing your cow since it was a fast cow [01:25:59] <Angelklaine> and there is another young one [01:26:22] <Nirav> ok, thank yuo - will go them later. [01:28:58] <Angelklaine> no, thanks for everything you did for us. You have no idea how much it helped [01:29:01] <Angelklaine> especially the iron [01:29:07] <Nirav> awesome [01:30:02] <Angelklaine> I went premium so I will be around! [01:30:08] <Nirav> yay! Do you have any funny stories of your time in Wurm? Share them!

+1 This would sure help me when I do my upkeep rounds for all them deeds of mine!

Is this the official documentation? In case WO and WU are not different in this regard (afaik they shouldn't be) there is an error concerning timed affinities. It says the duration of the affinity is determined by the amount of food eaten, which is not entirely false. Of course the amount is important but more important is something else which I believe to be nutritional value. Food is eaten at a constant rate of about 0.03 units per second. The effect on your food bar still seems to be determined by the quality of the food. I ate exactly 0.15 units of these different meals: * one ql 6.7 canine meal with unknown contents. I'm calling it Dog. * one ql 14.7 insect meal with pea pod, called Pea. * one ql 14.7 insect meal with pea pod and ground paprika, called Paprika. Pea gave me a 5 second affinity buff (roughly). Dog, although lower quality, gave me a 27 second buff. Paprika gave me close to 3 minutes. This leads me to think nutrition is the main factor for affinity duration. The amount eaten is certainly of lesser importance. Additionally, when it says "to get the same affinity, the recipe must be recreated exactly" it is important to understand what is part of the recipe and what is not. The affinity type is only determined by the true name of the ingredient at the time of cooking but not the exact recipe of the ingredients themselves. Take these meals: 1) fried insect + fried pea pod (made from chopped pea pod) 2) fried insect + fried pea pod (made from pea pod) 3) fried insect + pea pod 4) fried insect + chopped pea pod 2, 3 and 4 will all produce different buffs because the name of the ingredients are different. However, 1 and 2 will be the same even though the fried pea pods themselves were different in that they gave different buffs. I think it could be clarified that the "exact recipe" only concerns the name of the ingredients at the time of cooking, not whether they were identically prepared, also that chopped pea pod which is pre-fried is a different ingredient than chopped pea pod. One may think that "fried" is a state that a vegetable passes through before being cooked together with meat, just as if you had fried the veg separately, but this is not the case. This particular little detail gave me the wrong idea about affinity cooking and threw me into a few hours of brain wracking experiments trying to find the missing link.

tbh I just want an oak dredge. I would also like more steel/bronze/copper tools but I'm assuming there is a reason behind it. Anywho, Suggestion here is just to add 1 shaft to a dredge so we can add whatever wood type we want rather than just having birchwood.

They could cheat (think coconuts in cooking), sand+rockshards

I thought I had a very fast cow. Imagine. I think I am going to breed five speed cows now on Chaos.

It was okay before RNG player gods screwed up the balance. I have no problem with player gods, but just giving them random spells really screwed things up.

Auctioning of this rare spear Starting bid: 4s Buyout: 15s Buyer pays COD (will be mailed)

All sorts of things can be made from adamantine and glimmersteel, including rivets, rings and bracelets, but not horseshoes (according to the wurmpedia entries anyway) 'Glimmershoes' could, as well as having a speed boost and a reduction in damage taken, provide a sparkly effect to the horse when it moves. Flaming footprints for hellhorses, rainbow stars (or something equally unicorny) for unicorns, and...ummm...something else for normal horses Disclaimer: this post may or may not be slightly less than entirely serious

I will steal this idea for Celebration, ok!

Pacer was stealthed in a mine you logged out in for ... about 7 hours... waiting for you. lol I had to bring him water like 3 times. It was right next to my deed at the time. ---- IMO it was probably the absolute worst decision rolf ever made. We lost around 1/3 of the playerbase in 3 days iirc, at least 4 or 5 staff members quit, I was a CM at the time and I just about did as well. The deeds on the far west coast were destroyed... some of them long before the people who owned them even knew the change had been made. I happened to be on that day and kicked our deed up to heavy guards and we were fairly far east anyhow, so we didn't get too much hassle. Our off deed areas were all fairly solidly fenced in as well. The worst part was the fact that we had absolutely no real warning... people lost hundreds of hours worth of work, some of it was just destroyed maliciously, places torn apart for absolutely no reason at all, there wasn't even loot, and the tokens were not behind any sort of walls, but decorative trees and orchards were cut, roads destroyed, landscaping (not dirt walls, but simple terraces) dug out and fields ripped apart. The part that was the most annoying to me was people standing on the hill over newtown (the start town)... a completely open plan, no walls, not even many buildings to hide in... shooting players with a bow and a spyglass from beyond sight as they spawned at the token... for some of the players it was the first (and last) time they logged in. Even after rolf decided to remove the raiding ability the damage was done. A lot of people had been forced to make very hasty (and ugly) changes to deeds in order to get walls up for some sort of defenses, and a poll on the forums came back with the decision to remove the old homeservers and start fresh on the freedom isles, so for a few months there was nothing going on at all on the pve servers because we knew everything was going to poof but indy was not ready yet. I will say that moving day was actually pretty awesome tho... a few hundred boats crossing the server border in a massive exodus lasting only a day or two. (there was a week to move iirc, but most people got across within the first 48 hrs)

All the coordinates for items and creatures are stored as floating point world coordinates, not as tile coordinates, so that shouldn't be a problem. The main problem is that currently fences aren't items, they are parts of a tile (border). And everything you can collide with at the moment is either a tile (trees) or tile-aligned (bridges, houses, fences). I don't see anything impossible, but it would require a lot of work to implement for CC, and probably outside the realm of modding.

You must use the external IP in the external IP field for both servers. Your router should be set up to forward each port to the right machine. In some OSes you will not be able to start the server if the external IP does not exist on the interface in the OS, if you run into that issue you can use my bind to all interfaces mod from here: Here's an example setup from my cluster: External ip on all servers = 46.4.83.199 Cradle - Login/Entry server - Internal IP = 10.5.0.2 27016 - Steam Query (Forwarded from router, UDP) 18000 - External port (Forwarded from router) 18001 - Serverpacks (Forwarded from router, if you use that mod) 18002 - Internal (Blocked on router) 18003 - RMI (Blocked on router) 18004 - RMI Registration (Blocked on router) Otherland - Internal IP = 10.5.0.3 Steam query set 0 (disabled) 18010 - External port (Forwarded from router) 18011 - Serverpacks (Forwarded from router, if you use that mod) 18012 - Internal (Blocked on router) 18013 - RMI (Blocked on router) 18014 - RMI Registration (Blocked on router) Walden - Internal IP = 10.5.0.4 Steam query set 0 (disabled) 18020 - External port (Forwarded from router) 18021 - Serverpacks (Forwarded from router, if you use that mod) 18022 - Internal (Blocked on router) 18023 - RMI (Blocked on router) 18024 - RMI Registration (Blocked on router)

I'll take the sculpting wand, PM me ingame or here (same name) for availibility.

Would love to be able to see alliance upkeep.

ill take the Valentines planter. Gavias

A good suggestion! This would help much for those with multiple deeds or alliance members. A setting to its display as Aeryck mentioned should be added as well. =Ayes=

To those of us who do not like or want PVP... This was not a blast, it was terrible. mean spirited players just destroying everything and stealing because they could. We did not sign up for that and we had little warning to prepare to even try to defend ourselves. Because you see the PVP servers had an advantage with higher fight skils and some things that were not available to us lowly PVE people. The majority of the population is PVE and still is. When we all got outraged and went looking for other games that respected us, Freedom was announced. I never want to see another PVP scenario again. Many may be respectful however those who are not give everyone who plays PVP a bad reputation.

http://wurmdev.blogspot.com.ee/2009/04/moving-forward-with-server-setup.html EDIT I wasn't there and don't have any firsthand experience, but it was interesting experiment.. so I did bit research a while ago.. I can't find the forum post any more, where he announced it.. in that thread Rolf was pretty cocky with "this is my game, i do what i want" attitude.

butchering is capped at corpse ql, if the corpse ql is damaged the effective cap on ql on butchered products is brought down. It's pretty simple, it's just tied to corpse ql, like lockmaking is tied to iron ql, shafts are tied to log ql and so on. skill, tool ql and runes increase success chances and ql output higher to the cap.

there are some very simple things that you do not think of if anyone new asks questions...one of my first questions was how to cut down a tree, and they said that i should activate my hatchet and rightclick the tree. tried for 5minutes without success till i got the answer...click the TILE, not the tree XD

my steel staff Do I get a commission for asking you to make me one then you turned it rare ?

Is this what healthy discussion feels like? I think I'm getting an ulcer.

Sorry to necro an old thread, but hey Again, I'd like to apologise for any conceived disregard we had for Horde players regarding this issue, our intention was to address it with the priest and god overhaul planned for a little later in the year. Having been made aware it limited the Horde more severely than we first thought (as you all pointed out), it was of course pushed forward and the fix will now be in the next update, pending any major issues in testing.

I always thought, why don't they just make another type of boat that lets you load animals. Like a barge or something.

+1 for animal transport +1 for cross server -1 for trying to link the two.

How could you not want one of these?

we made a deal

Tsk, you must have pissed someone off so badly that they removed the necessary crafting recipes from your accounts only. 'cos I can make glass smelters, glass glasses, glass bowls, glass windows, glass boxes, glass swords, glass armour, glass oblivion gates... No glass candlesticks, tho, which seems like a real lack. Someone should make a suggestion thread for that or something.

Hasn't got a unique examine string, but has got a unique name.

2207297627489538L That one is my steel shovel, and has a unique name of "Ace of Spades" Rolf gave team members a chance, some time ago, on having a unique name and description given to one of the items. I cannot remember all of those, or who asked for them.

Another preview fresh out of the pixel factory:

Its something i may look at, but it would have to exclude uniques. And i'd like to have a new boat type for transporting animals..

Discord is a lot like TS in that you can join a channel with other people and actively use voice/text comms with them, but you can also be joined to the discord server and leave messages for others to read later, much like other IM services. Its kind of better than most commonly used VOIP programs even though its still in development, but as it's still in development, can occasionally cause issues for its users. For example, HOTS-Epic tried migrating from teamspeak to discord at one point but we found that we were receiving about 5 second latency on our voice comms. This isn't the norm for discord, but since we were experiencing it in pvp, we opted to go back to using teamspeak instead. I think once discord is fully developed and all the kinks worked out, it will probably become the most popular VOIP/communications program, surpassing teamspeak/skype/mumble/ventrillo/etc
