Map Dumps 2024

Hey everyone, the map dumps for 2024 are here!

As usual, you can find them together with the map dumps from previous years in the Google Drive folder: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/0B6J_aGQ6URL8UURFN2VadWxtSWs

In case you don’t know what map dumps are, let me explain:
A map dump is a full render of a server map, giving you a good overview of the topography and terrain. Every tile in the game world is represented by a single pixel in the final image. They come in 3 different versions: a classic one to give you a general overview of the server, a terrain version without any depth and a topographic version with contour lines.
We usually release them for all servers at once every year so you can track your own (or others) building progress or so you can use them in community projects, such as server deed maps or map tools.

You may also use them for navigation or to plan your next exploration trip to a landmark or terraforming project that looks interesting to you.

We hope this makes your traveling in Wurm safer and easier or helps you finding some inspiration!

Patch Notes 13-FEB-2024

Server Changelog

  • New: Added the kick action to Christmas parts to toggle their particle effects.
  • Change: If a kingdom ruler is currently a citizen of a village that is creating a PMK, they must now be removed from the village first.
  • Bugfix: Resource nodes are no longer destroyed instantly if the action is stopped prematurely.
    • Instead, the next action that collects resources from that node will have a percentage penalty to the number of items they can get.
    • If a player stops after collecting 3 of 4 possible items for example, the next collect action from that node will have a 75% reduction in the number of items found.
    • To prevent possible abuse, the number of items found by the next player will always be rounded down to the closest whole number.
  • Bugfix: Fixed empty equipped saddles showing the wrong model.
  • Bugfix: Fixed some issues with leading creatures near water and bridges.
  • Bugfix: Items placed on walls should no longer fall to the ground from shockwaves caused by the floor changing.
  • Bugfix: Removed the twist that some items like lamps or carpets had gained when placed on the ground.

Client Changelog

  • Bugfix: Slightly widened the “Quantity” column in the crafting recipe list window to prevent the column header and some material weight texts from getting cut off.
