Start hosting your Wurm Unlimited world today with AA Game Hosting
Wurm servers rely on a variety of command-line arguments to control how they start, operate, and interact with the world files and configurations that define your server environment. These arguments allow administrators to fine‑tune server behavior, enable or disable features, troubleshoot issues, and manage advanced startup conditions that aren’t exposed through the graphical control panel. This reference provides a complete, organized list of all available Wurm command line arguments, along with clear explanations of what each one does and when you might use it. Whether you're configuring a custom server setup, running multiple worlds, or simply want a deeper understanding of how Wurm handles its startup parameters, this list serves as a comprehensive resource for both new and experienced server administrators.
