_HeN_  [author] 20 Oct, 2021 @ 12:57pm 
@Soul--Reaver I can add them to this if you want so everyone gets the changes and add you as a contributor?
Soul--Reaver 20 Oct, 2021 @ 9:41am 
I've made some more changes to make it more realistic. Would it be alright if i publish the mod with a link to the original in the steam description?
Soul--Reaver 19 Oct, 2021 @ 11:01pm 
While i think this is a good idea. I found that the payout was too high.
Within very little time i was getting 100M+ per week and buying 100% company stock every week.
So made a slight modification to lower the payout to 1% of the original amount.

Fun strategy I've been using this one for is using investor money to buy competitor stock and the dividends from the stock to pay back investors.... I may be violating a few ethics rules.

@cmd_covid thats a base game feature just buy all the shares and then merge it into your own I believe

how do you buy the hole company
Loupito75 11 Jul, 2020 @ 8:59pm 
oh ok i had the same problem of misunderstanding
_HeN_  [author] 3 Jul, 2020 @ 4:22pm 
@FunkyScotsman thanks for the feedback I have updated the description to better describe what this mod does.
TheeFunkyScotsman 3 Jul, 2020 @ 4:02pm 
wait never mind i thought this mod was something else like i got paid dividends from my own company
_HeN_  [author] 3 Jul, 2020 @ 3:58pm 
@FunkyScotsman when you say you own your whole company you don't earn money from your own only other companies that you buy shares in
TheeFunkyScotsman 3 Jul, 2020 @ 3:52pm 
yeh its not showing anything in any finance areas
TheeFunkyScotsman 3 Jul, 2020 @ 3:51pm 
i own my whole company
_HeN_  [author] 3 Jul, 2020 @ 2:59pm 
@FunkyScotsman do you have shares within a company? Dividends should pay every Sunday and should show a notification and display a gain within the financial list view. Is this not the case?
TheeFunkyScotsman 3 Jul, 2020 @ 11:26am 
the mod there is no dividends anywhere im not making any money
_HeN_  [author] 3 Jul, 2020 @ 9:18am 
@FunkyScotsman what are you finding doesn't work?
TheeFunkyScotsman 2 Jul, 2020 @ 2:37pm

Выплата дивидендов and Недельные дивиденды
_HeN_  [author] 6 Jun, 2020 @ 4:04am 
@Luci I can do, do you have the corrected translations as you describe? I currently have, Vyplata dividendov and Nedel'nyye dividendy
Luci 6 Jun, 2020 @ 3:28am 
Why can't write in Russian letters? It's impossible to read
_HeN_  [author] 6 Jun, 2020 @ 3:11am 
@Luci are you playing in Russian, if the game language is set to Russian it will change the spelling.
Luci 6 Jun, 2020 @ 3:05am 
Why is it written Vyplata dividentov instead of Dividend Payout?
Shiono_the_Shade 19 Apr, 2020 @ 5:21pm 
@_HeN_ I bet since depending on how one grows and how fast those numbers change rapidly.
_HeN_  [author] 19 Apr, 2020 @ 4:39pm 
@Shiono_the_Shade its currently something I am looking at implementing just need to work out best how to predict 30 day profits
Shiono_the_Shade 19 Apr, 2020 @ 1:10pm 
oh it won't show up in the Profits and Expenses Tab? that might be where I go wrong lol, I'll check it out again later on thanks for the tip!
_HeN_  [author] 19 Apr, 2020 @ 12:01pm 
@Shiono_the_Shade have you checked the transaction screen and the notification? I have tried this with the latest version and is working
Shiono_the_Shade 18 Apr, 2020 @ 10:53pm 
I haven't seen anything ingame that would make me think this mod is working so... is it updated to the new Full Release? I have no clue what version that is or if I have to have any minimums for when the dividends end up coming in....?
_HeN_  [author] 15 Jan, 2020 @ 4:45pm 
Update has now been pushed for the latest version of Startup company
Aleytia 28 Dec, 2019 @ 3:58pm 
Version 28 is mow out so hopefully the update is for that version
_HeN_  [author] 23 Dec, 2019 @ 9:14am 
Thanks for the report an update will be out soon
Aleytia 23 Dec, 2019 @ 3:17am 
Doesn't work for version 27
_HeN_  [author] 22 Feb, 2019 @ 2:13pm 
It should work with both new and games in progress. If anyone has any other impressions, please let me know.

I should hopefully be bringing some new features.
KPLoopy 21 Feb, 2019 @ 6:42pm 
Is this safe to add to a game in progress, or should this be used with new games only?
Thaleosaurus 17 Jan, 2019 @ 3:32am 
I also feel that adjusting the dividends a bit, for now it's a simple "sandbox mode".
if you start the game normally, but put most your money in one of the top ten companies you can't go bankrupt unless you expand very fast without gaining income.

I have a test game with dividends, and by day 400 I'm earning more than one million per 7 days in dividends alone.

"Another thing, I think it would be nice to have some sort of "dividend threshold". For example, you start getting dividends when you've bought up to 20~50% of the company. Maybe add it as a difficulty parameter in the options, with a scrollbar, idk"

Although making the game more challenging I wouldn't put this in unless maybe a once in a blue moon challenge...E.G. You receive an email from the Board of the company telling Share holders they want to pause dividend payments to share holders as they want to invest more money into the company" ------------ That happens IRL although not recieving money untill a certain % doesn't.

Great Idea though, if used as a challenge. Or even as an extra option to make the game more challenging.
Luther 10 Jan, 2019 @ 4:13am 
Glad you removed dividend payments after merging. makes much more sence.
Simple mods like this that should of been added originally into the game. It's also people like you that make the game as great as it is because of these mods.

Keep up the great work, Thank you!

Merged Companies Update:
• Merged companies no longer give dividend payments (Suggested by @Firewall, thanks)
• I have also cleaned up the code a little

Please let me know if you think this is the right move or I will revert ASAP.

Thank you for the suggestions and support I really do appreciate it! Please keep them coming.

Thanks, TheGaming_HeN_
_HeN_  [author] 31 Dec, 2018 @ 9:37am 
@Firewall thanks for teh suggestion, this is something that I have thought about after the merge, yeah will have a look into this and see if I can make some slight alterations. Maybe even a new screen with some fancy sliders liek you say. Appreciate the feedback though thanks :steamhappy:
Firewall 30 Dec, 2018 @ 11:34pm 
@_HeN_ I've noticed that after i've bought 100% of a company and have merged it with mine, I still have dividend profit. Not sure if that's how it's suposed to work, but assuming the bought company no longer exists, there's no logic in have profit, do you agree?

Another thing, I think it would be nice to have some sort of "dividend threshold". For example, you start getting dividends when you've bought up to 20~50% of the company. Maybe add it as a difficulty parameter in the options, with a scrollbar, idk.

Great work, btw. Keep it up!

_HeN_  [author] 7 Sep, 2018 @ 9:11am 
@Kongjie as mentioned in my earlier comment you get them on Sunday 00:00 but you have to have shares first. Hope that helps
Koŋ' 6 Sep, 2018 @ 9:17pm
