Hi everyone,

We’d like to take a moment to remind all creators and users about the Steam Workshop rules regarding paid content and external promotion.

Recently, we've noticed some mods that include links or references to paid content or external platforms where paid mods are available. This goes against Steam’s Workshop guidelines, which are in place to ensure the platform remains fair, accessible, and enjoyable for all players—especially those who have already purchased the game.

Mods that promote or direct users to paid content may be set to hidden or removed until such promotion is removed.

1. Even if no money is involved, directing users to external group chats (such as QQ or Discord) for exclusive content, updates, or additional mods is strictly prohibited. This kind of referral promotion is considered off-platform advertising and violates Steam Workshop guidelines.
   
2. Mods must not contain embedded promotional content — including but not limited to group chat numbers, links, or referral messages — even inside in-game visuals (e.g. icons, textures, UI elements).
   
3. All mod content, updates, and downloads must remain freely and fully accessible on the Steam Workshop itself.

We encourage all creators to continue sharing and supporting each other’s work in a way that respects these community standards. If you're unsure whether something in your description or content might be a violation, feel free to reach out—we're happy to help clarify or assist with adjustments.

Thanks for your understanding and for helping us keep the Workshop a welcoming and fair space for everyone.

大家好，

我们想提醒所有创作者和用户注意 Steam 创意工坊有关付费内容和外部推广的规则。

最近我们注意到，一些模组中包含指向付费内容或外部平台（如提供付费模组的网站）的链接或说明。这违反了 Steam 创意工坊的指南。该指南的制定旨在确保平台对所有玩家保持公平、可访问和愉快的使用体验——尤其是对于已经购买游戏的玩家。

推广或引导用户访问付费内容的模组，可能会被设为隐藏或在移除相关内容前暂时下架。

1. 即使不涉及金钱，严禁引导用户加入外部群聊（如 QQ 或 Discord）以获取独家内容、更新或额外模组。这种引流推广被视为平台外广告，违反 Steam 创意工坊指南。
   
2. 模组不得包含任何嵌入式推广内容——包括但不限于群聊号码、链接或引导性信息——即使这些内容出现在游戏内视觉元素（如图标、材质、UI 元素）中。
   
3. 所有模组内容、更新和下载必须完全免费且可在 Steam 创意工坊中直接访问。

我们鼓励所有创作者继续分享并支持彼此的创作，同时尊重这些社区规范。如果您不确定模组描述或内容是否可能违反相关规定，欢迎随时联系工作人员，我们很乐意为您澄清或协助修改。

感谢您的理解和配合，感谢您帮助我们共同维护一个包容、公平的创意工坊环境。
