(And December’s monthly skin is, too)==December’s “Festive Light of the Gods” skin transforms your candelabra into a lovely spinning festive decoration, just in time for the holidays! Available through the month of December in the Marks Shop at any settlement token, this skin can be applied to any candelabra to give it a unique and fancy look! Today’s update introduces the Cartography Skill to the world of Wurm Online, so pack up those range poles and dioptras and get ready to map it all out! To learn more about Cartography, click the image below:Cartography Exploration Update Feature Cartography is a new skill that allows players to create maps of the land around them. Creating a map is started by creating a survey of the land you would like a map of, then using a completed survey on a cartography table to create the map.  Once created, a map can then be combined with other maps, stamped with additional information and icons, copied for trading/distribution, added to an atlas, or displayed in-world as a decoration. There is a new journal available to everyone on login that will guide you though getting started and reward you with some helpful items on your mapping adventures. Once you hit level 10 Cartography you will unlock a second journal walking you through the creation and use of stamps.  SurveyingThe first step in creating a map is surveying the land, which can be started by using a blank paper or papyrus sheet on a placed range pole. The range pole will mark the center of the surveyed area, and a series of actions using a dioptra on the survey will have you explore the area around the range pole to collect information about the land and improve the quality of the survey. Creating & Copying MapsCreation and copying of maps make use of the new Cartography Table and a few items that it can hold. As long as the table contains an ink brush, a blank map, and an ink pot containing ink or dye, using a survey on the table will let you start the Create Map action. If instead of a survey a painted map is used on the table, the Copy Map action will be available instead. Creating a map will consume the survey and both actions will use some of the ink or dye, and slightly damage the ink brush. At the end of the action, a new painted or copied map will be created. Although a painted map can later be combined with other maps and copied, copying will only work on original maps and you cannot make copies of copies. Combining MapsFor creating maps of larger areas, the Cartography Table can be used to combine multiple maps into a single map. The combining window will let you move and resize maps to set them as you see fit before merging the maps into a single map. StampsAfter a map has been created, stamps are used to add more information to the map - with both basic stamps just containing an icon and gemmed stamps that store extra information with the stamp depending on the type of gem used. Hovering over a stamp made with a gemmed stamp can show you information about villages, guard towers and mission structures, timed events, basic annotations, and even apply a hyperlink between maps or the world map - so you can mark a spot on the world map that your map relates to. Other Changes * Ink pots will now act as a backup source for any reed pen action.* Chess boards will now remember the positions of pieces and which turn it is between server transfers and resets.* Fix an issue preventing servers from sending out emails.* Fixed a font size issue on treasure map text.* You can no longer get treasure maps on the haven tutorial server==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/193863-patch-note-25-nov-2022/ 251122]25-NOV-2022==* Bugfix: Resolved an issue preventing some shop purchases from properly crediting to the players account.==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/193799-patch-notes-22-nov-2022/ 221122]Patch Notes 22-NOV-2022==Server Changelog:* Bugfix: Fixed bows losing magical ink rename on string/unstring.* Bugfix: Sermon cooldown timer will no longer reset on server crossing.* Bugfix: Fixed a highway pathfinding issue causing it to stop working.* Change: Made supreme bone fragments rarer to account for how they combine.Client Changelog:* Bugfix: Fixed inconsistencies with land vehicle and mounts turning.* Change: Land vehicles and mounts will now begin turning slower and speed up instead of beginning fast and slowing down.* Change: New maps generated will now use a different colour for sandstone and sand.==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/193662-patch-notes-15-nov-2022/ 151122]Patch Notes 15-NOV-2022==Server Changelog:* Fix: We have corrected the bundle prices to be the same as the web shop inside the steam shop.

This will usually result in slightly higher-quality results when foraging, botanizing, harvesting from trellises, picking pottery planters, and searching for fishing items (grubs, wurms, bark, and twigs).* Change: The “Improve an Armour Piece to 80QL” journal goal can now be completed by improving a shield to 80QL, not just body armour.

We feel that this is the best short-term solution until we have a chance to rebalance and reintroduce them. We will disable champions for Chaos during the maintenance reset on July 12th. When this happens, any existing champion that logs in will dechamp shortly after, with -5 to all characteristics instead of the normal -6; everything else functions as a normal dechamp. We hope to bring champions back in the future, but in a way that makes them less of a requirement to remain competitive and more of a fun gameplay choice.  ==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/191428-patch-notes-28-jun-2022/ 280622] Patch Notes 28-Jun-2022==* Bugfix: Clarified description of “Create a Set of Cloth Armour” journal goal to mention tabards.* Change: “Create an Animal Skin Rug” goal will now accept mountain lion rugs.* Bugfix: Journal goals that exist in more than one tier, such as creating a chess set, are now triggered immediately in all applicable tiers when completed.* Change: Chess pieces will appear slightly larger now when placed/dropped on the ground.* Bugfix: Forage and Botanize will now give a chance for a rare roll for rare items given mid action.* Change: Changed how maps are generated to fix issues with black splotches extending from the top of some maps. Bugfix: UI Fixes: * Fixed toolbelt not updating as often as it should.* Fixed no target button on the target window being delayed when hovering.* Fixed flashing elements to update as they should when animated (for climbing button and inventory). ==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/191297-patch-notes-21-jun-22/ 210622] Patch Notes 21-Jun-2022==* Bug fix: Corrected description of “Create a Meditation Rug” achievement.* Bug fix: The “Create 10 Masonry Fences” goal will now properly progress upon completion of any fence using the Masonry skill.* Bug fix: Achievements related to foraging cacoa beans now refer to the correct item and will trigger properly.* Bugfix: Fireplaces will now also give warnings about placing burnable items on them.* Bugfix: The cutlass and sabre rewards from treasure hunting are now improvable.* Bugfix: Can no longer cast dispel on items which have no enchants or you do not have permission to dispel.* Bugfix: (PVP) You must now be within range of a chained tower or village token to build or continue a new guard tower.* Change: Removed non combat hard skill requirements from focusing and left it to just the fighting skill roll instead.** This fixes being unable to focus with the new combat UI ==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/191169-patch-notes-14-jun-22-and-june%E2%80%99s-monthly-skin/ 140622] Patch Notes 14-Jun-2022==* Bugfix: Fixed some issues with windows not updating as often as they should.* Bugfix: “Bake a pie, tart, or cake” journal goal will now trigger as intended when baking one of these items.* Bugfix: For journal goals consisting of multiple distinct achievements, such as “Mine Copper and Tin” and “Milk a Cow, Bison, and Sheep”, the journal window will now show which percentage of those tasks you have completed instead of showing the entire task as complete when you have only completed some of them.* Bugfix: Paving a tile underground will now grant credit toward the “Pave 10 Tiles” journal goal.* Bugfix: “Write with Black Ink and a Reed Pen” journal goal will now be awarded properly.* Bugfix: Removed reference to “stone” material in oven and forge descriptions.* Bugfix: Throwing a snowball at a creature outside of combat will now trigger the appropriate Steam achievement.* Bugfix: Runes that adjust the size or volume of an item can no longer be applied or dispelled if the item contains other items, or is contained inside another item.* Bugfix: Treasure map clues will now correctly identify the style of guard towers mentioned in them.* Change: Treasure hunts will now avoid picking a tile inside a structure for treasure hunt locations.* Change: Nearby villages for challenge steps on Treasure hunts will now be closer to the actual location.* Change: Archery Towers will no longer be in the list of Treasure Hunt steps.* New: Newly generated old village maps may have hover text to show what icons are referencing.* New: Added a right-click option to maps to show/hide a colour legend. ==[https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/191094-patch-notes-10-jun-22/ 100722100622] Patch Notes 10-Jun-2022==
