=Introduction/Starter Tips=
After starting Wurm you see the Login Screen, where one can enter his Username and Password. Below it is a checkbox, labelled labeled "Play as Guest" which is enabled by default. You should uncheck it and enter a password to create a new "real" Account, because guest Accounts are not stored after you logoff.
Upon logging in, your avatar will spawn (see [[Spawning]]) in a village called [[Newtown]] (NT), you spawn here the first time you play, and also when you die (there are some exceptions).
=Movement=
<p>To move in the world of Wurm, simply use the {{key|W}} {{key|A}} {{key|S}} {{key|D}} keys on your keyboard.</p>To look around, leftclick left-click and hold in the 3D-view, and move your mouse.<p>To center the view, press {{key|C}} on your keyboard.</p>
<p>To Autorun press the {{key|X}} key, or the {{key|Page up}} key.</p>
Steep slopes require you to climb. To climb a surface, click on the '''Climb''' button in your Event window. If you carry a lot of items, your stamina will drop like a stone while climbing, and fairly fast while walking. And you can not climb trees, sorry.
=Equipping & Inventory=
To equip an item (you can only hold one at a time), simply doubleclick an item in the inventory. 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 right-click on a log in your inventory, to create new items with it. '''Note:''' If you carry too much, speed at which you walk is reduced. You can also become encumbered, and walk extremely slowly, by carrying very heavy items such as felled trees. Improve your strength skill to carry more.<br>
Remember you can also use your bodyparts for certain things, like molding clay, by activating one of your hands by expanding the Body-category and doubleclick a hand, and then rightclicking the clay in your inventory, to work with it.
Rightclick on objects, tiles, people, anything, to interact with it. A popup menu appears saying "''Requesting...''" which means the game is fetching 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 right-click a tree.
<br><small><em>(Cutting down trees does not work with herrings!).</em></small><br><br>
Note that a menu that appears in <span style="color: #999999">dark grey</span> is cached. Not all options may work. It will be automatically replaced with the real menu when the data from the server is recievedreceived.
=The Bars=
This shows up when you are in combat. See [[Fighting]] for more detail.<br>
''Defensive, AgressiveAggressive:''<br>
This shows up when you select one of these modes on the 'right click menu'. See [[Fighting]] for more detail.<br>
''Tired, Exhausted:<br>
These are states relating to your green Stamina bar. When you are Exhausted, you will walk slower. You will also be far more vurnerable vulnerable to attacks. <br>
=Death and Dying=
While you have no deed, or are not an [[Alliance|ally]] of one, you will only be able to spawn at [[Newtown]] or start (also [[Newtown]]). When you are on a deed, you will be able to [[Spawning|spawn]] there, if that deed has any [[Alliance|allies]] you will be able to [[Spawning|spawn]] there also.
