A tool that indicates the cardinal points relative to the position of the player.
== Usage ==
The compass must be in the inventory (or a container within) of the player in order to use it. Then, it can be placed wherever you like in the [[HUD]].
The GUI window may be placed anywhere on the [[HUD]] by dragging it around. By right-clicking it may also be made smaller (and back to large again), as well as be hidden completely. To get it back from being hidden the console - {{key|F1}} - command '''toggle compass''' may be used, or toggled from the [[Main menu]].== Method Notes ==:*Activate The compass gradually becomes unstable while moving and stabilizes again while standing still. While the compass is unstable the direction cannot be seen.* The quality of the compass affects stability.* A fully unstable compass will become readable in about 2 seconds at QL 70, 10 seconds at QL 30, and 20 seconds at QL 1. Starter compasses are at 10 ql, so they take 16 seconds to become readable.* Stopping just after the compass becomes unstable will allow it to recover quicker (the compass was not fully unstable).* [[WoA]] affects the olive oil then right click on speed of recovery.* A finished compass cannot be improved, use high quality components to craft to get better quality end products. Additionally they can't be repaired, other than with the [[Pottery Jarmend]] spell.* Compasses decay very rapidly, so should always be stored in inventory.* Upon adding a new compass to the inventory, even with the previous one removed, the old GUI may remain. To correct this remove all compasses from the inventory and select Create re-> Compasstake the intended one.<!-- :*Activate the needle and rightWurm has a magnetic west. --click on the ''Unfinished compass'' and select continue>
