General

Something doesn't work!

Please consult the Troubleshooting FAQ.

How do I play online?

See Using WormNET.

What are the signs next to people's nicknames?

How do I get a higher rank?

Initially WormNET had working ranks, however due to some hacking they were disabled. Currently anyone can change their rank using certain programs, but this practice is frowned upon. Secure logins and ranks may be re-added at some point in the future.

How do I activate BattyRope / TestStuff / 150% speed?

When hosting, type /batty, /ts or /150 respectively. If you're hosting with HostingBuddy, you need to use the !version command.

Playing

What are the basics?

You should really read the manual. If you're in a hurry, you can just read about the controls. You can read detailed information about each weapon on the Weapons page.

How do I play [insert scheme here]?

Consult the corresponding scheme page.

What are "rules"?

Some schemes have rules which must be followed by all players. Some players won't allow you to play with them unless you can prove that you know the rules. Click here for details, or consult the corresponding scheme page for rules specific to certain schemes.

Files

Where do I get more maps?

You can download colour maps from the Worms Map Database. Don't forget that you can also extract maps from replays of played games using the Extract map command (right-click on the replay file).

How do I play on downloaded or extracted maps?

See here: Using colour maps

How do I make my own map?

See here: Colour map authoring instructions

How do I make my own flag/grave/fanfare/soundbank?

See the appropriate page in File formats.
