ChosenFate (ID: 00000066cce7be0a) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 10/23/2021 As far as I see many things are dead. I cannot change any settings, recruitment options dont work (aka i cant make a recruitment campaign) etc. Hope this gets fixed

Sorawisit Totharong (ID: 000000ed19e34a92) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 01/19/2021 Nice extension, but it's long dead and no updates

icon

Kurt Tarvis (ID: 00000099cae3f6d8) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 07/14/2020 There are some bugs with it being as old as this is but it still performs an essential service for those who are big into running many nations. It could use updates, for sure, but its still the only thing available out there. It is better as is than it not existing.

Raymond desmeth (ID: 000000b4f306bc35) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 04/16/2020 It's a good program, fantastic for all your NS needs, but do note the development of this extension has stopped and thus features like the newspapers and certain recruitment features are currently not working.
