We have recently moved to Gitgud!

• Q: How do I do X?
  
• A: Before all else, check the learning helper! The most confusing aspects of apini are listed there! If you can't find what you're looking for still; create and issue on the gitgud page as it should be there!
  
  
• Q: Why am I getting an error/incompatibility?
  
• A: First and foremost make sure that it is actually Apini causing this error. If it is apini note that before release all updates are bugtested quite extensively; so your case is likely very specific. Please make a git issue listing the configuration and nature or the error so this can be fixed.
  
  
• Q: Will there be any development for Ideology, Biotech etc?
  
• A: No, as it stands Apini will only support Core Rimworld and the Royalty DLC. The reasoning behind this is that work available for Apini's development is very limited, and the ever expanding content for rimworld leads to increasing scope for a more or less constant work ability. Thus following the ethic "Do it well or don't do it at all." this is a line being drawn to limit the scope to what can be done well. In addition the Ideology and Biotech expansions do not personally interest development in this case. This mod may still work with these expansions, but they are not going to be actively supported. This is not to say that no work will be done period, if someone wishes to maintain compatability for these expansions I will gladly accept. But I personally cannot.
  
  
• Q: How can I help contribute?
  
• A: You can contact me through steam, make a discussion, even make a fork on gitgud. However you would like to get your code/art to me is great, but the absolute best way is to do it the traditional git way, thanks to version control. Although, reporting bugs or requesting entertaining/universal features is still contributing!
  
  
• Q: How can I donate?
  
• A: I will never ask or accept monetary compensation for my work in Apini. It is admitted that several contributors, primarily artists, have been compensated for their work. However this compensation has always come from myself alone. I do this work because I enjoy Apini. Not as my means of income, hence my often shortness of time. If anyone ever presents a donation method for Apini it is not legitimate.

Posting in the comments is highly discouraged as it's messy and hard to keep track of!
There are discussion threads for feature requests and bug reports, please comment there so it is less likely to get missed.

Making a gitgud issue cannot be forgotten or missed!
