Just wondering what the size of the gameworld is. I know you play inside a barrier. Is the gameworld still pretty good sized?

It takes appr. 10 minutes to run through the world.

I think itīs big enough. The locations are very different and you have to visit most more than once.

Someone else asked this question before... And someone gave the exact meters squared area of the land, but I don't remeber what it was.

The land is so big that it's a pain in the ass to run anywhere, from anywhere. Literally. Even if you have SouthPark on, or drank some Sprint Potion.

Why do you want to know, anyways?

It's obviously huge, because you will often pick up Teleport scrolls.

Most of them don't work.

Just use the console commands of GOTO.

eg.

Goto Pos = Goto Castle.
Goto Vos = Goto Orc territory.

To use a magic scroll you have to equip it first. Usually the first equipped scroll/rune will be shortcut 4, the second 5 and so on.
Once equipped press the shortcut key(e.g. "4") and use it (action-key + up-key). Keep it pressed until the magic effect takes place.
Some magic can be hold longer for more damage.
For some spells you won't have enough mana to cast.

The difference between scrolls and runes is, runes can be used more often, but you need to learn the magic circle first.
Scrolls can be used only once but as long as you have enough mana you can cast it.
