== Common problems of new players ==
=== What's the difference between equip and activate?===
An active item can be used to interact with the world around you, like cut a [[Terrain:Tree|tree]] down with your [[hatchet]] active. You equip a weapon which is then used automatically while in [[Fighting|combat]].
=== How do I activate an item?===
===Can I starve to death or die of thirst?===
No. If those bars are empty, you won't be able to perform some [[Body stamina|stamina]]-draining actions (like [[mining]]) and your stamina will recharge very slowly. For more information, see [[Basic Knowledge]].
=== Why wont my [[Body stamina|stamina]] regenerate?===This may be caused by lag, having "Hungry" and/or "Thirsty" in the [[Interface and controls#Statusbar|status bar]], swimming, or your [[climbing]] switch is activated. If you are being attacked your stamina bar also will not regenerate and you may not be able to move away fast enough to get away in order to regain stamina which leaves you in a very dangerous situation.
=== How do I make money?===
Unlike other games you may have played, [[Bank of Wurm|money]] is not gained from killing monsters, but rather from the sale of items you have crafted to other players and [[traders]]. You could also convert real-life <strong>€</strong>'s<sup><small>(Euros)</small></sup> into <del><strong>¤W¤</strong></del>'sSilver<sup><small>(Wurm currency/silver)</small></sup> using the [http://store.wurmonline.com/ Wurm store]...
=== Why is it so dark? I can't see===
=== How do I use a large anvil?===
The [[large anvil]] can only be used when dropped on the [[Tile|ground]] <!--or while it is in a [[forge]] or [[campfire]]-->and making a an [[iron lump]] active.
=== How do I change game options/settings? How do I get better frame rates===
=== What weapon should I create first?===
A 10 [[Quality level|quality]] [[short sword]] is good for killing [[Large rat|rat]]s and such.
=== Why am I moving so slowly?===
