I'm really loving the game so far, it's the Age of Sail game I have been looking for since I even dreamed of such a game.   I understand server costs can be quite a bit, as well as the usual development costs. I'd like to suggest potential optional funding streams. Such as Patreon with little perks like names in credits somewhere or on a developer blog, newsletter, whatever. Or maybe another optional subscription model. Not one with any in-game performance perks, no pay to win or anything, but
