'''Ability to create item removed from game, see here: http://www.wurmonline.com/2014/01/08/slew-of-bugfixes/'''
The '''gift box''' was a player-made [[gift]] that could be addressed to other players. Unfortunately it became widely abused to avoid decay on many items, especially food, which devs found to be undesired behavior.
== Creation/Wrapping Method ==
*First, activate a [[wood scrap]], right-click the item to be wrapped into a present, and select "Wrap". Next, 'rename' the gift box with the name of the recipient. The gift itself will then carry the name: "From [creator] to [receiver]".
*Wrapping Event Text:
You start to wrap the <[[item]]> in a nice package. You will have to destroy the package to retrieve it afterwards.
You create a box side.
You create another box side.
== Additional Notes ==
*To open the gift box, right-click it and select "Open". Opening will destroy the box, while just the contents will remain. Only the named recipient or the creator can open the box in this way.
*Players with long names were reported to have problems opening the box. It wass was therefore suggested that players experiment with the process before wrapping something of considerable value.
*The gift box is created at a quality of 99. It decays slowly, only if left off-deed, and it cannot be repaired or improved.
*The gift box will always say, ''"It is made from birchwood"'', despite the wood scrap type used in creation.
*Items unable to be gift wrapped include: wood scrap, edible items, ores, lumps, rock shards, and leather.
*Gift boxes will not burn if placed in a fire, forge, or oven. Instead, they will glow red, much like a metal lump, not incurring any decay/fire damage. However, players can use a gift box as [[fuel]] by selecting the "burn" option on the burning vessel with the gift box activated. The results of this action are not yet confirmed.*Players can destroy a gift box in a [[trash heap]], along with its contents.
*Gift boxes can no longer cross server borders, either via ship, or through the mail.
*An ''examine'' action performed on some of the gift boxes will then refresh them and allow the intended recipient to open them.
