    Hi at all
    I have a silly question:
    What so i get for 250 coins?
    A Download -Link that works for 1 Werk?
    Or does the program just work for one Werk?
    Best

    The download access works for one week, the plugins will continue to work for as long as the game developers do not make changes to the game, which sometimes breaks the plugins.

    Games under active development like Star Citizen, Elite Dangerous and War Thunder are examples of some where the actual development of the game can break plugin support, though @value1 has been quick to fix and re-release the plugins in those circumstances.

    @Martin.Berger , I will give you enough coins so you can "buy" a weekly pack, so you can download the plugins and have them stored.
    As @noorbeast pointed out, the simtools software works all the time.
    So do not buy a gold membership as the proceeds are NOT going to the right place. If you need coins, there are quite a few people here with MORE than enough to share. Just ask them.
    Otherwise, once you start a new thread with your planned project, you will gather enough in no time for updates to plugins.

    No worries @Martin.Berger , I am happy to share coins even though some people here have 20,000 more coins than me and would rather direct you to paying for something you do not have to

    As I am the only person with over 20,000 coins please don't confuse my giving information and generosity @bsft, I regularly give away coins with the most recent being last night when a member PM me and asked, I just don't make a fuss about it.

    you said"You can purchase one week access with 250 activity coins here: http://www.xsimulator.net/community/shop/"
    Weve had this discussion already about where the money is going. Be assured, next version of Simtools will NOT be purchased with coins.

    You remember me a Guerilla fighter who fights a never ending war. BTW @noorbeast has shared many coins and he is not the only one.

    I and others are well aware of your frustrations with the coins system @bsft. I have somewhat similar concerns regarding SimTools licensing being easily circumvented by commercial entities. But in both cases it is the devs who really need to take an active lead role in resolving such concerns.

    As recently as last week I have PM the dev team about a road map for change, including asking if it would include community consultation. I am looking forward to the dev team taking a lead role in addressing a range of concerns and challenges to further advance SimTools and the community.

    Just to make it clear, despite some crappy and idiotic and fukced-up bullshit some well-known member is vomiting here, nobody is becoming rich by running this site. And many, many people are benefiting from it.
    I have not earned one single cent with the work here like many others have not either. However I think it's fun and people have fun here. And I have no intention at all to move away from xsimulator.net.

    I welcome your clear words, Thomas!

    I am currently in vacation in greece and this reminds me on the following:

    One of the dogs here who is living in a pack of 9 other dogs is growling to one specific dog whenever he passes his way. The other dog has a very friendly mind and is well-integrated in his pack. He is also very friendly to me. So one day the friendly dog passes again the other dog and he is barking again. The friendly dog has enough and is biting the barking dog nearly to death.

    Unfortunately, the barking dog has a psychological deficit and is still barking...

    Ok, I have stirred enough of this pot, one thing I will add is this.
    The next official version of Simtools will NOT NEED coins to get, you will have to pay for it properly. Thats the only way the funds will be correctly disbursed among those whom are progressing with the Simtools development. They are not trying to get rich, just make it clear and simple, "this is what you have to do to have the software"
    Enjoy your coins , because soon, they will be worthless.

    You mean the next version of simtools will not be free any longer? You are knowing more than me obviously...
