== Server border sharks (mechanics) ==
One of Wurm's game features is that of traveling to other [[server]]s which can be connected at mutual [[map]] borders: north, east, south, or west. If you're getting close to a border that is not connected during such attempted travel, you will get orange event messages to warn you:
You see dark shadows moving beneath the waves.
An enourmous shark scouts you from below.
Suddenly, strong winds and waves throw you overboard!
Soon after seeing these messages, you will automatically and repeatedly be disembarked from your [[ship]] or [[boat]]. If you're AFK and sailing with [[Key_bindings#Default_keybindings|Autorun]] enabled, you may be saved from an otherwise certain [[drown|drowning]] death. At this point, you must turn around and try another route.
=== The currents work against you and you get nowhere ===
If you're too close to the border, this will be the final warning message that immediately disembarks you. Boats have to be turned around using the right-click options ''Move > Turn item clockwise'' or ''Move > Turn item counterclockwise'', or being [[drag]]ged. If you can't drag, you might need to pull or push using ''Move > Push'' and ''Move >> Pull'' respectively, to get away from the border.
