Special Notes


Note: There is currently no Localization support - only English is supported. Please let me know if you need Localization for your language.

Please note: This requires my Daily Stocks mod which makes the stock market function on a daily basis instead of a weekly basis, it also gives the companies more interesting stock histories with realistic looking graphs and reasonably-random stock movements.

Daily Stocks is only marked as required because the game's current stock history is always either flat, or negative. Never positive. This means if you use this mod without Daily Stocks You will never be paid.
This requirement is temporary until the dev fleshes out a more complete stock system. Thank you for understanding!

More information

Dividends are calculated on a per-day basis based on the change (delta) of the company's stock price over the last two historical periods proportional to the amount of shares owned.

That was a little dense, right? Let me put it more simply: When the company is doing well, you get paid

Every day, if the companies you're invested in make money over the last 24h, you get cold hard cash in your bank account in the morning. You'll see these transactions marked as
Dividends From {company name}


I believe we've struck a decently balanced, relatively realistic balance with this mod. The payouts aren't very big until you own a lot of shares, at which point the payouts will be marginal (hah) compared to your daily income. But it's not nothing!

Please let me know if you notice any imbalance, I can adjust what % of the daily stock change affects your payout.


Thanks so much! Please feel free to ask questions or give feedback - it can't get better without you!

I'll see what I can do about that here in the near future, but no promises.

Hi Luvo! I betcha it's because I haven't updated the mod in awhile!

I don't see any dividend payouts, I have restarted the games a number of times and still nothing. It could be because I have the venture capital mod. Can you assist?:

The description will randomly disappear without me touching anything - I try to update it when I can, but in case it disappears up there for some reason, here's the full description: https://gist.github.com/brandonsturgeon/9c1b05e53050ae2f461bd1f1e6f22ba3

I'm currently seeing some incredibly large payouts making late-game less fun. I'll work on some sort of balance for this.
