This is for cybershadow:
How exactly does WormKit find modules to load?
Does it search for files named wk*.dll?
A bit more documentation, especially on making modules, would be greatly appreciated.

The source is included, and really small. It basically does as you told and just loads modules wk*.dll found in the WA dir.
It doesn't do any additional work, so it's basically possible to load any DLL in worms (though that wouldn't be very useful, but it does mean you're not limited to Delphi).
You do all the work in DLLMain or for Delphi in the library initialisation code. (You can find that in the documentation, or take a look at a simple module like AntiKeyboardHook)

But for those of us who don't really know much about delphi editing, or how to look at modules or edit them, uh, could there be some sort of tutorial?

...or how to look at modules or edit them..
How to look at text files and edit them? I suggest notepad.exe.
