| + | #REDIRECT [[Wurm Server Release Notes 2013]] |
| − | | |
| − | This is a shameless, unofficial copy of the Wurm server release notes as shown by /news. Some people might find it interesting to see what has been changed over the past few months. I hope that people will be able to see just how busy Mojang has been. The section headings are the date the server was updated; YYMMDD. Please note that this page was not created by Mojang, so it is not an official document.

| |
| − | * Fixed a bug with the rock layer. Uncovering rock by digging should be easier now again.
| |
| − | * Alchemy skillgain slowed down since it was too fast given the availability of the new wound covers. Fighting skills were equalled so they gain equally slow/quick in order to prepare for the future fighting system. Overall skillgain was also tweaked a bit.

| |
| − | * Faith gain broke due to the fix and many players were reset to 1. All players with a deity are now set to faith 10. Most players will be capped at 30 anyways later on unless they decide to become priests. Faithgain was crazy before the 'fix' anyways so 10 is probably reasonable.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == 060613 ==
| |
| − | * Bug found with creatures being out of position.
| |
| − | * Religion system fix: At faith 10 anyone receive bonuses in your deity's domain. Only priests can cast spells. Faith 30 needed to become a priest. You do not gain favour by praying any more. Favour slowly rises by time instead. Spells almost always succeed. Priests may NOT perform LOTS of normal actions, like mine, dig, repair, improve, mix alchemy etc. Fo priests may not initiate aggressive actions. A priest may go unfaithful and still perform these actions and loose 0.1 faith. If they go below 30 faith they loose priesthood. You need to be priest for a while if you want to become a champion of a deity and enjoy realdeath. The effects of this system is to make priests and magic very rare, and possibly very powerful. The prayer skill still remain but it does nothing and may be removed or reworked later. The channeling skill still helps if you are good at it, but it is also subject to change soon. Maybe even before anyone gets to use it.
| |
| − | | |
| − | == 060608 ==
| |
| − | * A bug was fixed with the penalty for same-side attacking non-outlaws. The penalty was increased for home servers. In order to get to grips with the amount of thievery going on on the homeserver, the king now declares everyone an outlaw as soon as he or she is found stealing there.

If you step up within two tiles of that creature and say I am a chest, give me my gold. you will receive and be announced as the winner of the Prize. The Prize consists of a fine Teleport Wand, a Bag of Keeping, and 2 gold (all of which you will be able to keep when we go gold). The server history log found on deed tokens will show if a winner has been declared. GMs are not allowed to participate, but chat moderators are. Good luck everyone!
| |
| − | * You now only gain skill from attacking opposing kingdom deed guards.
| |
| − | * Items no longer decay in banks.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060330==
| |
| − | * Various bugfixes, for instance with dough. Kingdom and deed guards should be a bit easier to cope with again.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060328==
| |
| − | * Kingdom guards will only hunt near their tower now.
| |
| − | * Corpses will now fit in new coffins.
| |
| − | * A bug with enchantment effects being lost between reboots fixed.
| |
| − | * A new command, /attackers shows the creatures who attacked you the last 5 minutes. If a player is there should be able to attack him/her without a penalty to skills/faith.
| |
| − | * You now need 20.5 body control to steal things.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060327==

| − | * Removed the bug that crashed the game tonight.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060324==
| |
| − | * Practicing targets work now. We will test the new creature armour rates over the weekend. No time to fix anyways. Feedback after. Good luck!
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060322==
| |
| − | * You may now 'drain coffers' from an enemy village once every 24 hours. If the village has more than one week of upkeep left, you will drain and receive a fraction of the monthly upkeep (drain about 15% and receive 7.5%). In order to prevent that villages always keep less than a weeks upkeep, structure decay will kick in at normal rate if upkeep left is less than one week.
| |
| − | * Bowstrings may now snap, and you may unstring your bow. Bows may only be improved if they have no string.
| |
| − | * Arrows should break less often, and hitting something should be much easier.
| |
| − | * Creatures now have better armour, as they are using armour types.
| |

| |

| |
| − | Notes on archery: Archery is hard to learn. It is supposed only to be usable against creatures with fair skill and good equipment.
| |
| − | To gain skill quickest, practice with hunting arrows that have no penalties.
| |
| − | | |
| − | All bows have a 'best distance'. That distance is 20, 40, and 80 meters (or roughly 5, 10 and 20 tiles) for the bows.
| |
| − | | |
| − | Shooting at shorter or longer ranges will affect the difficulty.
| |
| − | Arrows will be shot in the following order: 1. from quiver worn on body, 2. from quiver in inventory (or if 1 is found but is empty), 3. arrow held in hand, 4. arrow in inventory.
| |
| − | | |
| − | If a quiver is found at 2 but it is empty, no arrow will be shot. This should give you good control over which arrows are shot. Arrows are fired in the following order: 1. War arrows, 2. Hunting arrows, 3. shafts. War arrows do more damage, but are slightly harder to hit with. Shafts do little damage and are hardest to hit with.
| |
| − | | |

| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060303==
| |
| − | * Bug with kingdom guards not attacking fixed. Nobody gains skill from kingdom guards until a better solution is figured out. Reason was that you could gain too easy skill on them since they respawn and are fairly weak.
| |
| − | * IMPORTANT: You are now only invulnerable when logging off in your own kingdom! Outside it also takes 3 minutes to leave the world unless you have fought, in which case it takes 5 minutes. Check /lotime to see how long it takes until you leave the world.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060302==
| |
| − | * Tunneling while in the cave should generate fewer buggy shudders. You will now get a warning if a deep shaft will emerge.
| |
| − | * HOTS now gain no skill fighting kingdom guards, since they theoretically provide endless training with no risk involved.
| |
| − | * Attitude (the red/green/blue aura) has been reprogrammed, and should better reflect whether a creature will attack.

| |
| − | * Drain health now heals wounds if you have any.
| |
| − | * Pets now are tame longer than 24 hours. Sorry.

| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060116==
| |

| |
| − | * Bug fixed where if you used only a weapon in your left hand it increased barehand fighting. Note that your primary weapon should always be in your right hand. You will use your left hand much less often. You now have a small chance to parry with your left hand weapon as well.

| |
| − | * Various other small bugs and improvements.
| |
| − | | |

| − | * Cave decay is now implented. This means: Always bring a pickaxe, food and drink when going underground. You won't get killed by it right now, but items will be destroyed.
| |
| − | The decay rate is fairly slow. Minerals may respawn. Reinforcing walls help. Large chambers decay quicker. Entrances may also cave in.

| − | | |
| − | ==060105==
| |
| − | * FIGHTING SKILL UP AND RUNNING AGAIN. The old skills were not restored, since they were 'dirty' and we want to test skill progress and balance with this system. You now gain no fighting skill if your stamina is at the bottom, or if you or your opponent fight barehanded with a skill over 20.

| − | * You may no longer use catapults to shoot your live bodyparts away.
| |
| − | * New lag code is in place. It should be unnoticable for the most part.
| |
| − | * You who catapulted your bodyparts: login again if you are messed up. It should work.
| |
| − | | |
| − | ==060102==
| |
| − | * Fighting has changed some: Mauls are now slower than axes and swords. Swords are much better at parrying, and take less damage when parrying. Axe and sword damage has been adjusted upwards. You no longer gain skill if either the attacker or the defender is link-less.
| |
| − | * Prices for combined items now correctly affect trader demand. Consecutive teleports due to a lag teleport should not be as common.
| |
| − | * Walking through wall plans should no longer render a teleport. Metal altars no longer require heating to be finished or improved.
| |
| − | * Citizens that may destroy walls and fences now should be able to perform these actions a lot quicker within their own village. Improving walls should be possible again like before but only for finished walls.
