Epic to Freedom Skill Transfers
A one time transfer for all Epic accounts skills as of the 2nd of November to Freedom will be performed during this update.
We will be applying a calculation to remove the 2x skillgain and reduce Epic skills to an estimated Freedom equivilent. Freedom skills will then have their highest value set to equal to the original Epic skill and give a 3x multiplier until that is reached on Freedom.
NOTE: THIS ONLY APPLIES IF YOUR PRE-ADJUSTED EPIC SKILL IS HIGHER THAN YOUR FREEDOM SKILL. IF YOUR FREEDOM SKILL IS HIGHER THAN YOUR PRE-ADJUSTED EPIC SKILL IT WILL NOT CROSS.
*Characteristics and Meditation skills will cross at a 1:1 ratio.
*Faith, Favour, and Alignment will not cross at all.
For more information on the process behind the transfers, please read:
https://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/158305-some-epic-things/
Additionally, all premium accounts affected by this transfer will have their premium extended by 10 days to account for the delay in processing this transfer.

New Highway System
*Overview
**The new highway system has been enabled on PvE servers.
**Paved highways of 2 or 3 tiles can be protected by the use of catseyes and waystones
**Protected paved tiles cannot be destroyed, but can be terraformed with a limit of 20 slope (28 diagonally).
*Catseyes and Waystones
**Blind catseyes are created with rock shards and a stone chisel, and then turned into catseyes with the addition of an eye.
**Waystones are made with a chisel on a rock shard, and completed with a compass and a shaft.
**Paved tiles that are two or three tiles wide can be protected by placing catseyes or waystones on adjacent tile corners.
**A catseye may only connect to 2 catseyes or waystones and must be connected to one to allow planting.
**Waystones will create junctions for multiple highway routes to connect and will require being connected to at least one catseye to allow planting off deed. Note: On deed a waystone may be planted without any connections.
*Viewing Protection
**Possible protected tiles and links can be viewed before planting a catseye or waystone by activating the item and right clicking an eligible tile corner (one with a planted catseye or waystone on an adjacent tile).
**Once planted, the protected tiles and links can be viewed by right clicking on the object and selecting it in the menu.
**It is advised to use this to ensure the correct tiles will be protected when joining highway junctions.
*Finding Deeds
**Deeds that have a waystone on deed may be found via the “find route” option on a waystone that is connected to the same highway.
**If opted in, they may be found in the drop down menu, if they have not opted in they may still be found by inputting the exact deed name
*Village Settings
**Village settings will be used for several purposes
**Allowing highways to be built or connected on deed or within 3 tiles of the deed (in village perimeter).
**KoS may not be used if the village is set to allow highways being built through the deed or within 3 tiles of the perimeter.
**Allowing highways to be found via the drop down menu on any waystone connected to the same highway
***Note, even if this is disabled, the village may be found by typing the exact name into the text box.
Existing highway rules will remain in effect until notice of their removal and reliance on highway mechanics is given.
