We obtain This table shows the following table (angle for slopes spanning a single tile):
* The 7 days in a Wurm week are called:
**1. day: Day of the Ant
**2. day: Day of Luck
**3. day: Day of the Wurm
**4. day: Day of Wrath
**5. day: Day of Tears
**6. day: Day of Sleep
**7. day: Day of Awakening
*''Please note: The actual season for harvest can be -/+ 2 weeks. Also any day (and any min in that day) in that week.''

'''This page provides a rundown of the physics of the Wurm world. Below are sections individually designated to the various elements of these physics.'''
== Quick References ==
=== Measurements ===
* 1 tile = 4 meter x 4 meter square.
* 10 dirts (dropped or dug) = 1 meter of slope
=== Time === * 1 RL hour = 8 Wurm hours * 1 real RL day = 8 Wurm days ~ALSO~ * 1 Wurm day = 3 real-life hours ~ALSO~ 1 real-life hour = 8 Wurm hours ~ALSO~ * 1 Wurm hour = 7.5 real minutes (0.125 real-life hours (7.5 real minutes)
* 1 Wurm year = 336 Wurm days = 42 real days

* Finally, talking about measuring heights, we must look at another basic unit of measurement used in the Wurm world: “dirts”. Whenever we see sloped tiles defining the 3D landscape, the elevation of slopes is given in terms of the amount of “dirts" dropped. When terraforming the land you use a shovel to dig or drop dirt - you add or subtract one “unit of dirt” with each action of the shovel.

* Liquids happen to be 1kg to 1L (weight to volume), and because of this, are often referenced in liters (L). Many solid items have different kg to L relationships. Examples:
** A small bucket can hold 12 L. A full bucket of water containers contains 12 L of water weighting 12 kg. ** A pottery bowl can hold 9 L and weights 0.50 kg. A filet fillet of fish is 0.20 L and weights 0.30 kg. Thus, a pottery bowl can hold 45 filets fillets (9 / 0.2 = 45) and will weight 14 kg (13.50 kg filetfillet, 0.50 kg bowl).
* Volume puts limits on how much of something can fit in a container. All containers themselves consume slightly more volume then they hold. Hypothetically then, players can carry infinite volume and containers can hold infinite weight.
* The Wurm world also experiences 4 different seasons called “winter”, “spring”, “summer”, and “autumn”. These seasons reoccur regularly after during 336 Wurm days. As such:
'''1 Wurm year = 336 Wurm days = 42 real days.'''
1 Wurm week = 7 Wurm days = 21 real hours.'''

==Weather/Meteorology==
Having 4 seasons (as noted above) means a lot of weather changes. There is no patterns to the weather other than snow is only during winter. Wind is also unpredictable but seems to follow the same direction on multiple servers. The time span for wind changes also varies.
*'''[[Wind]]''' only affects the speed of boats, and can help or hurt the speed depending on whether the boat is sailing with or against the current [[wind]] direction.
:* To find the current [[wind]] direction '''in-game''', type /weather into a chat window. This current [[wind]] is also displayed in [https://discord.com/channels/202801255024689153/845376777278717972/1189613830679052308 this perpetual message] in the server-status channel of the '''official Wurm Online Discord server'''
*'''[[Rain]]''' does not impact the water level, but can result in rainbows.
:* With [[Sorcery]], [[rain]] can be summoned using the Lightning spell
:* Burn times of outdoor furnaces are reduced when it rains, but the exact amount is unknown.
*'''Lightning''' can strike during rain and also has unique effects if a player is struck by it:
:* The following message appears in the player's event tab: ''YOU ARE HIT BY LIGHTNING! OUCH! A strange dizziness runs through your head, eventually sharpening your senses.''
:* Mind speed increases drastically (3.0+), but all equipped armor/weapons take 20 damage.
:* The chance of getting hit is very low.
::*0.000024% chance on 2k servers (Deliverance, Exodus, Pristine, Release)
::*0.000006% chance on 4k servers (Independence)
::*0.0000015% chance on 8k servers (Xanadu)
*'''Snow''' changes the visual terrain to white. Its main purpose is to make [[snowball]]s to throw or use in a [[larder]] to keep food from decaying as fast.
*'''[[Fog]]''' was rumored to be predicted by [[fog spider]]s, but they do spawn during this time. [[Fog]] levels, unlike wind, is specific to each server.
*'''Day/Night''' only affects visual brightness, not potential weather effects.
