The first thing I want to say is... thank you! Thank you to all the new patreons, people who have continued their patreon and other such things since my post on social media and the discord regarding energy prices. It is very much appreciated, and the amount of new patreons has damn near covered ...

I just got my energy renewal for the year.
The 2 images included are what I've been offered. The cheaper one is the "variable" rate, while the more expensive one is the "fixed for 1 year" rate.
The CHEAPEST one is still £100/month more than we normally pay.
Why am I telling ...

Someone much, much smater than me made a mod which allows you to add paint to the paint brush.
So I added the textures from the bunker. This means players can paint their bases to look like the bunker if they so wish.
However, the next bit is the important bit.

Yes, that is the latest public version of DF running on my Steam Deck. :)
There are some caveats, which I will list.
1) You MUST turn all the options for video down to low, or it'll crash due to lack of RAM.
2) You MUST stick to a 6k map (with or without compo pack) or it'll cras...

So, I know this isn't listed as a benefit... but I have a question.
I was doing early access videos to my testing since I couldn't do early access to the mod (which changed after a public release, as per TFP's rules). The mod is going public on Monday, and you guys have access to it now.
