I've created a list of rules as below, they will likely change later, but they are here for the purposes of establishing a base level of social order:
ONE: Do not post Illegal Activity. Also, do not post any manifesto's done by terrorists, active shooters, serial felons rationalizing such things, or promoting such things, even if your content does not endorse the message.
TWO: Do not engage in speech that promotes, advocates, glorifies, or endorses violence.
THREE: Do not threaten, harass, or bully users; and do not encourage others to do so on or off-line; nor make per se defamatory states at users.
FOUR: Do not post ISM. Involuntary Salacious Material means NSFW material of a manner that was not intentionally made public. This is the "upskirt", "revenge porn", and "private intimate photos" rule.
FIVE: Do not post Porn
SIX: Content that contains nudity, pornography, or profanity, which a reasonable viewer may not want to be seen accessing in a public or formal setting such as in a workplace should be tagged as NSFW. Any material of a titillating nature must be marked NSFW.
SEVEN: Do not post Facebook accounts, individuals who's twitters are less than 500 followers, private/personal information that is not publicly available, addresses, or participate, encourage, or engage in any doxxing campaign.
EIGHT: Do not intentionally deceive others by impersonating another. This does not apply to satire.
NINE: No person shall use communities.win sites (including kotakuinaction2.win) to solicit, facilitate any transaction, or gift including: ... ATF defined firearms or ammo as defined by the ATF, Bump-stock type devices, Explosives, 3D printing files to produce the aforementioned, controlled substances, Drugs, Alcohol, Tobacco, Stolen goods, Paid services involving physical sexual contact, Personal Information, Falsified Official Documents, Falsified Currency, Fraudulent Services, Pharmaceuticals
TEN: No vote manipulation. Do not break communities.win's features.
ELEVEN: Do not post spam. If you are self-advertising, you must have sufficiently engaged in the sub prior to your post, and you must engage with the users when they comment in your post. Spam will also include repeated messages and comments that are done with no effort to add to the conversation.
TWELVE: Do not post intentional falsehoods or hoaxes. Yes, the Elders of Zion and other such intentionally fabricated documents fall into this. If your POST is arguably false by the user-base, it may be marked as either misleading or unfounded based on it's factual assertions, particularly in the title.
THIRTEEN: If you have reposted something, it will be removed
FOURTEEN: Do not post more than 5 posts a day to this sub.
FIFTEEN: Do not direct particularly egregious identity based slurs at users. A list will be provided
SIXTEEN: Do not attack entire identity groups as inferior, subhuman, inherently morally deficient, biologically/evolutionary mongrel, or participating in a vast conspiracy to take over the world, ala ZOG-NWO / The Patriarchy.

The 2nd project from the KIA2 volunteer dev team.
Thanks for everyone who tested and gave feedback during our testing releases. And thanks to mods for stickying the posts.
Special thanks to Betterdays who made the amazing environmental art and assets for the game and generally for the game looking as good as it does despite the limitations of a web release.
We are currently planning our next project and will be trying to make our testing process more professional in the future. DM me if you are interested in helping test our future games, no experience necessary.

Rumble is now my primary content farm, I no longer use Odysee.
I've been reminded by people my links and everything are horribly out of date for my main sticky thread. Hope this helps people keep track of what's going on, this should be a lot neater now. I think I will use the comments page to post new videos and I will use this main thread with the development roadmap list and any relevant major release links like the game itself.
When I edit the main post next I will also remember to post the date so that people know exactly when this was last done at a glance.
Current by the gods 0.1 Development Roadmap:
. Reversing all wood and grain pile animations
. Pick up and drop behaviour for grain and wood piles, as well as trees
. Village storehouse grain/wood pile animation and behaviour
. Individual Housing Slots For Villagers to prep for day/night cycles and sleep mechanics - Complete
. Housed Villager population updating - Complete
. Influence sphere scaling with housed villager count - Complete
. God hand influence sphere behaviour - Complete
. Debugging building mechanics in conjunction with breeding behaviour to make sure there are no conflicts - Complete
. Debug villager wandering behaviour to match scale of individual village influence sphere - Complete

This is why I shit on these university students protesting, they are current thing NPCs and nothing more. Also, holy shit they'd be easy to doxx if somebody put their minds to it, those masks are barely covering their features. I never thought I'd write this, but Antifa are more competent at this than they are so these are some low IQ morons even amongst university students.

Autism time.
So the biggest obstacle for me when I tried out Linux was installing stuff manually outside of steam and often steam itself wouldn't work which was probably a result of me not understanding how to setup dependencies etc. Maybe it's just because I've got more time to look through all of this but I think they might have changed a bit how Lutris works as well to be a bit more user friendly since I last checked. From my perspective I'd look at the damn interface and it felt like I was dealing with a virtual machine.
If I were sailing the high seas for example, how would I set everything up?
Yes, for the record I know it's not actually a virtual machine before the Linux autists rip me a new one but that's just my windows experience talking. I found it very confusing because I didn't know what files were where, if I wanted to for example put mods into Fallout 4 I wouldn't know where I could do it. How do you guys organise your files? What's your process for keeping track of multiple hard disks and naming conventions etc.?
Yes this is all really basic stuff by Linux user standards, but as a potential end user looking to give it a shot I thought it would be helpful having an up to date thread on this for people to spam information on because as it turns out there's a lot of out of date topics and videos I'm seeing floating around about this.
I realise this is a weird topic to bring up but as people know I'm always advocating people make their own stuff these days to decouple themselves from woke content plus if you find that you enjoy it it's great fun and really rewarding. I would much rather spend hours on this than even paying attention to any of the utter shit popping up on trending pages these days and it will be my primary form of escapism.
One way I have been seriously upping my art game is speed running Ryan King Art tutorials. The best part is his channel isn't dead and he keeps on adding stuff which is nice to see that he's keeping going with it. He has some modelling tutorials but a big part of his focus is on procedural materials and if you go through them you can make some absolutely amazing stuff very much on par with AAA content in terms of texturing. Then of course if you want to add little detail and scratches or make it a bit more unique you could potentially use texture paint which Blender has the capability for.

Currently I've been looking at his greeble stuff and I'm also looking at snow/sand as that would make it relatively straightforward to make some short films without having to model crap tons of vegetation. His tutorials aren't for beginners obviously but if you're looking to 'get gud' the procedural materials in particular are fantastic. Bearing in mind you will be needing cycles because he makes heavy use of bump and displacement to get those shiny details in so make sure you've got the PC for it.
His videos are reminding me I really need to have a look at geometry nodes sometime because I've barely looked at that. He's seriously got every single material you can think of you might need. I want to settle down with the rocky desert tutorial because my scenes have been lacking in colour and are a bit too dark even for space.

He claims that Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the time, and then-Army Secretary Ryan McCarthy, were plotting to disobey any orders handed down by Trump because they 'unreasonably' assumed the then-president was going to break the law and try to use the D.C. National Guard (DCNG) to stop certification of the 2020 presidential election results.
Speaking as a retired veteran, this makes me incoherent with rage. Civilian control of the military, what is that?
Miley should be hung by the neck until he is fucking dead, and so should Ryan McCarthy, that is fucking treason.
I'll tell you what, if Trump rolls into the WH on 20 Jan 2025 and orders whole sale round ups of his political enemies, I am there for it. As far as I can tell, they have all violated every basic tenet of the US system of government already, so if Trump has them summarily stood up against the wall of the WH and shot, that sounds perfectly fine by me.
The author writing Tucker's autobiography has the full copy that up until now only Fox had seen. In reading it, it sounds just like Tucker. It is also very much a polemic against the prevailing narrative of the day.
I'm not surprised it got him fired.

But in the meantime, because the words of our leaders matter, let’s consider the substance of what Sandy Cortes is saying. She’s demanding that our show be canceled because the things we’re saying are quote, “very clearly an incitement to violence.” Is this true? Even accounting for the fact that people tend to hear what they want to hear,
it is not true. It’s a lie, as anyone who watches this show knows. We are opposed to violence, not just philosophically but in practical terms. We’re against violent crime —the strong oppressing the weak. We’re against the horrors of late-term abortion and state-encouraged euthanasia. And above all we’re passionately opposed to the violent and pointless cruelty of the war in Ukraine, which the Biden Administration could end at any moment, thus saving the lives of innocents, but is instead prolonging purely for ideological reasons. Those are the things we dislike the most — the acts of violence our leaders endorse. Ocasio-Cortes is one of those leaders. She supports every one of those indefensible things, from abortion in the ninth month of pregnancy to extending the carnage in Ukraine. Who, honestly, is on the side of violence?
