Dust & Steam – German-speaking RedM Roleplay in 1900

Please note: the language on this server is German.

In the big cities, a new age is arriving: railroads, factories, telegraphs. Out in the countryside, the old West lives on.

Dust & Steam is still in development, but we are moving towards our alpha. We are making that journey in public, and anyone who wants to can help shape it now.

Our Vision

We want to deliberately slow roleplay down and make it enjoyable for everyone, including people who can’t log in every day but still want to be part of something. Whether you want to rise as a newly rich industrial mogul or scrape by in the dirty Wild West, everyone should be able to find a home here.

The world should be carried by its players and keep running even when no staff member is online. That is why we built almost everything ourselves.

What Makes Us Different

Businesses created during live play
New businesses appear without a server restart and without touching any server files. Mayors are players and manage the businesses of their own town.

Stock exchange
Prices change every hour, news moves the market, and every player has their own portfolio.

A bank in every town
Each bank keeps its own accounts. Transfers to another town take two hours and still arrive if you are offline or the server restarts.

Trade and imports
Businesses order imported goods themselves and collect them at the harbor half a day later. Players run their own staff, accounts and storage.

A world that keeps going
Crops grow and animals age, even while you are offline.

Writing and communication
You can write books and booklets and sell them through the bookshop. Telegrams can only be read at the station.

Hi Blaze, your approach to player-managed businesses and town banks caught my attention, especially transfers that survive restarts and the delayed import deliveries. Those connected workflows give the economy a clear role in everyday RP.

I saw that you have built most systems yourselves. As you prepare for alpha, would you consider paid external help with a focused extension, integration or management NUI? I develop custom Lua backend, MySQL persistence and in-game interfaces for RedM. My work overview is here.

If there is a particular workflow you want to extend, I’d be happy to discuss your framework, existing APIs and requirements before proposing a scope and quote. Feel free to message me on Discord: smxpusha.
