Newspaper

Description

This mod brings a newspaper to Derail Valley. The newspaper will contain news about the Derail Valley country, such as operations, safety, industry, community, economy, garages, heritage, humor, more, and maybe lore. The newspaper will spawn alongside job overview booklets so the player can read about Derail Valley news.

The news is relevant to you as a player.

If you are a veteran player, you may find out about future plans for the valley.

If you are a new player, you may find some tips and tricks in the news.

Terminology is used for immersion.

DVRT/Government means official news from devs or confirmed things that are planned for B100.

Private companies are modders. I don't yet have modders' permission to feature their mods, except my own, in this.

If you are a modder who wouldn't mind your mods being featured in this newspaper, ping me on Discord. This can help new players discover your mod through the in-game newspaper.

Future work depends on the number of people using it. Some of the future plans include:

Weekly updates: Working with users so their screenshots of doing funny things or derailments can be featured in the newspaper.

Working with modders to showcase their mods in the newspaper.

Weekly updates for news.

Pictures were taken from Altfuture's YouTube channel, Altfuture-posted Discord images, the Derail Valley Wiki, and Fandom websites. Some were taken from my own game with max graphics at 5 fps, lol.
