Also might be worth remembering you can ride on 40 slopes. But, this is best not used unless you are very sure you will never need to walk up/down the tunnel or space is very restricted. With a serpentine mine, you can make use of drop shafts to provide a quick route down. This can't be stressed enough - there is reasonable chance that somebody else has already been there before, and there may well be a partly collapsed tunnel system to the top. By joining the surviving sections together you might be able to save yourself a lot of mining. But, you will have to deal with all the veins that have collapsed into the tunnel - probably with no option of mining to the sides if the previous miner created a serpentine mine.

From Etherdrifter, it looks as if there may well be some changes on the horizon...

Back down to the south east for this rift. For your local times - https://niarja.com/rifts

There is a bulk section at Glasshollow market - see

Thank you ?

There is now a highway over Rifter's Pass. This cut some 3.5k tiles off the distance between Rome and the south east of the map - removing the need to go around via Greymead and the Whitefay area. In the west this connects with the highway south of Rome, and in the east is a continuation of the highway to the deeds in the area of the two lakes in N18/19. There is a safe house at the top of the pass. There is some tidying that remains to be done, and the short tunnel is unlit. A short video of the journey over the new section of road, from west to east.

For your local times - https://niarja.com/rifts For those coming from the west, there is a partly completed highway over Rifter's Pass (N21) - the approach to the west side is still being worked on, but the road over the pass is complete, and catseyed from the summit to the east. While setting up for the rift, please try and respect the tundra.

Still the same after today's restart... From inside I get "The cave walls look very unstable. You cannot keep mining here.", and tunnelling in from outside gives "The ground sounds strangely hollow and brittle. You have to abandon the mining operation."

@jackjones- the google api is failing with a 403 error. and the error is back....

It seems like a very long time since I saw my last Fog Spider, though I hear those living in the clouds still see them.

Just popped over there - the eastern entrance had already been reopened. Looks to have been a lot of collapse along the diagonal section, but it goes though to the southern of the western entrances. I prospected some of the iron veins in the eastern section, and dropped named colossus bricks by them. Aside from a few tiles that have collapsed the eastern section looks in quite good condition, though it will need widening, around that source spring building that is in the middle of the tunnel. Only saw the three spiders there, they kindly donated their eyes to the current road project. I guess the others got bored and moved off. And there was no sign of the Champion Troll that was in the area.

Been a few months since I was there last - the eastern entrance is easy to locate, there is path to the cart entrance, and the boat entrance is right alongside. I seem to remember somebody had lava'ed one of the support beams - in preparation of widening the entrance to two tiles?

The server status thingy is available from http://wurmonline.com/status-new/ And https://www.niarja.com/servers gives a nice graph of the last day, as well as other information.

Theses really are a nice addition. Brings back memories of spending time sitting in a boat on the test server, when the current renderer was first introduced, watching the shadows from the trees play across the water.

Had the same issue while making some large crates with a stack of mixed wood types - but the queued actions continued.

Yes - all those involved know the required quality for items to be considered to be decent.

Well, a group of us tried each of the basic metals types, plus brass, bronze and steel, and none of them work for the current needles mission on Xanadu. So, either metal does matter, or the mission is bugged in some way...

It is worth noting that on mac it is more complex than just a openGL support thing, but rather how some of the bits don't fit together nicely. While I got the impression that this is likely to be resolved eventually, it is good know that we will existing renderer will still be around.

Yes, the in game and community map grids are near enough the same.

And ensure the video is posted, so those of us who will be asleep can catch-up later

While we are thinking about trellis, any chance of getting the pick_sprout keybind to pick sprouts from a trellis?

Fixed, thanks.
