Economy · Cash while the land rests

Income Mod

A steady baseline so cash still moves when the fields are quiet.

In the dairy year

Winter fields rest. The barn does not. Bills do not. A small passive cadence keeps the account from freezing while you plan rotation and organic transition.

This is not a replacement for milk and grain. It is the baseline so the year can breathe.

The feel

Hourly or daily pay, scaled by difficulty, touched by season. Every farm on a multiplayer map is paid on the host. No duplicate cheques. A HUD and a history exist if you want to watch it.

How it works

The cheque is:

base amount × income multiplier × seasonal multiplier

Base amount is your custom figure if you set one, otherwise the difficulty preset:

Difficulty Base amount
Easy $5,000
Normal $2,400
Hard $1,100

Multiplier options are 1×, 2×, 5×, and 10×. Hourly and daily pay the same total over time. The rhythm is what changes.

If seasonal effects are on:

Season Multiplier
Spring 0.8×
Summer 1.0×
Autumn 1.2×
Winter 0.7×

Settings and the timer save with the savegame. Ten languages ship. On a dedicated server the host’s settings apply to every farm, and each farm is paid independently.

What you see

Press I for the live HUD: current mode and amount, recent payments, and the seasonal multiplier when it is active. Right-click to drag and resize.

Press U for the full income report: settings summary, total and average earnings, and the payment history with day, time, type, amount, and seasonal modifier.

Settings live under Esc → Settings → Game Settings → Income Mod: enable, pay mode, difficulty, multiplier, custom amount, seasonal effects, notifications, and HUD.

On the Farm Tablet the Income app shows status, payment mode, amount, and an enable / disable toggle.

How you use it

The outs

Tax sees it. Time Guard times it. Workplace Triggers are another way a map spot can earn. Together they are optional cash chapters, not a finance pack you must own as one product.

What you need

This mod alone pays. Time Guard is the nicer clock. Nothing else is required.

How it connects

In the dairy year these sit next to this chapter. None are required.
