INTERHUB v2.0.0 - Interplanetary Trade Network
=============================================
InterHub connects your colony to the InterHub Network - a real online marketplace where RimWorld players trade items and colonists across different savegames and planets. Built by the Serverbro community for their fictional Valyra star system.

!! EARLY ACCESS WARNING !!
This Mod is in early access and may have bugs or issues. Please report any problems.
InterHub connects to an online service. Use at your own risk. The mod does not collect personal data, but it does serialize and upload your items and pawns to the InterHub warehouse. Make sure you are comfortable with this before using the mod.
Do NOT use it if you cannot afford to lose pawns or items. The backend may contain errors or may need to be reset at any time. Sent items and colonists could be lost without recovery.
There is a big problem for this project, everybody can generate things in his savegame and upload them to the InterHub warehouse. This can break the economy. At the moment there are no good measures to prevent this, so please be fair. To counteract this to some extent, you can create private marketplaces where you can trade with your community.
WHAT IS INTERHUB?
InterHub is a fictional interplanetary transport company. Using InterHub pods, you can ship items and pawns from your colony to a cloud-based warehouse. From there, you can sell them on the marketplace to other players - or buy what they offer.
Every player has a credits balance. Shipping costs freight fees, listing items costs a marketplace fee, and buying items transfers credits between players. A real player-driven economy.
HOW IT WORKS
1. REGISTER
Go to Mod Settings - InterHub and register with username and password. There is no MFA or email verification. Use strong passwords, but not your bank account password...
2. BUILD AN INTERHUB POD
Build the InterHub Transport Pod (found under Misc). Load it with items and/or colonists, just like a regular transport pod.
3. SEND TO WAREHOUSE
Use the InterHub Dispatch button to launch. Your cargo is serialized and uploaded to the InterHub warehouse in the cloud. Freight cost: 0.5 credits per kg.
4. MANAGE YOUR WAREHOUSE
Open the InterHub Terminal (main tab button at the bottom). The Warehouse tab shows all your stored items. From here you can:
- Create sell offers with custom prices
- Request delivery of items back to your colony
- Track your active listings
5. TRADE ON THE MARKETPLACE
Switch to the Marketplace tab to browse other players offers. Buy items with your credits - they are added to your warehouse instantly. The seller receives the payment.
6. RECEIVE DELIVERIES
When you request a delivery or receive purchased items, an InterHub pod drops from orbit onto your colony - just like a cargo pod event.
