@cliffski The problem with paying is that we still don't have a good way to do micropayments down to the small scale that is appropriate for a lot of web services (e.g. a forum that charges $0.01 per hour to use).
The payment layer today creates a ton of decision and data entry burden.
There should be a way that a user of a web service can 'pay' for it by contributing CPU cycles and bandwidth.
It would be technically challenging, but this could be a way to run web services without relying on ad or subscription revenue.
Bittorrent is the prototype.
@Snoop787 Thank you! I much appreciate it. It's great to have people loving it.
Proud to spread the mod support ideology
@Genroa You can thank a conversation with @TynanSylvester for tipping the balance on me opening up the system. It's hard to quantify the benefits of the ecosystem but a anecdotally the benefits do seem to outweigh the costs; I think there is also a real artistic argument to be made that
@Thalyd Yep, we're planning to make some adjustments around this

Today in fun RimWorld bugs
Clever system: People will refuse to attend rituals if the temperature in the ritual area is too cold for them.
Result: Prisoner refuses to attend his own execution because he thinks it'll be too chilly.
@MogsPOV It's mentioned in the post!
btw, don't hesitate to put a review on Biotech if you like.
DLCs don't get many reviews on Steam so each one helps.
RimWorld's 1.4 content update is in public beta testing now with cross-expansion integration between Ideology and Biotech.
Let's get those vampire-worshiper colonies going, folks.

@jvdm1984 The "base game plus all expansions" pack is a "complete the set" bundle on Steam.
Its price changes so you only pay for what you don't already have.
In your case, you have it all except Biotech, so its price is the same as Biotech.
@Deismagames It really amuses me to be the most dysfunctional character in the game.
We just a fixed an error we made that broke direct downloads of RimWorld for people who purchased on our site. (The system for giving Steam access was ok).
I'm very sorry about that and I apologize.
We're implementing technical safeties to prevent any kind of re-occurrence.
Latest RimWorld expansion is doing great in the puns department. Beat these:
"My miners who are also minors"
"Biotech: putting the infant in infantry"
Impressions of Biotech from Polygon's @RequineGG - love it
@ForrestPilot This has been fixed, just please restart Steam to get it. Cheers
RimWorld - Biotech is out! Our new RimWorld expansion with babies and children, gene-modding, and mechanoid control. 15 months of work - so good to finally put it out there. Hope you love it.
