This topic covers the most basic things you should, as a new player in Wurm Online, know about.

Movement

To move in the world of Wurm, simply use the WASD-keys on your keyboard. To look around, leftclick and hold in the 3D-view, and move your mouse. To center the view, press C on your keyboard.

Important Hotkeys

The F-keys on your keyboard holds important access to things in Wurm.

F1 : Brings up the console, for debugging and generic information.
F2 : Skills. In this dialog you keep track of your body, religion, and skills. New skills are added as you learn them (i.e: Hot Cooking). Increament of skills in this game are slow and takes time.
F3 : Probably the most important hotkey in the game. This brings up the Inventory, where you keep all your items. F12 : Quit the game. You are presented to a Yes/No-dialog before you can quit the game.

Equipping & Inventory

To equip an item (you can only hold one at a time), simply doubleclick an item. You can work with items within the inventory, there is no need to drop them on the ground. As an example, you activate/equip the carving knife, and rightclick on a log in your inventory, to create new items out of it. Note: If you carry too much, your walkspeed is slowed down.

Interaction

Rightclick on objects, tiles, people, anything, to interact with it. A popupmenu appears saying "Requesting..." which means it fetches data from the server about the specific object you are trying to interact with. When it's done (which is fairly quickly), you are given several options in the menu of what to do with the object. There are different options for different objects. You get more options depending on what item you have active. For example, you are presented with another option called "Cut down" if you have the Small Axe active and rightclick a tree.

The Bars

  • Green : Stamina/Energy
  • Blue : Thirst
  • Orange : Hunger

Refilling the bars


Stamina : Rest. The less thirst and hunger you have, the faster it regenerates. If you are low on stamina, you can not walk as fast as normal, and not climb very far.
Thirst : Rightclick water and select Taste to see if it's alright. If it is, rightclick the water again and select Drink.
Hunger : Forage for food by rightclicking on grass and select Nature > Forage. This type of food can only be eaten when your character is starving. You are going to need to cook the food in order to eat it when you are hungry. This will be explained later.
