Pay your taxes weekly and monthly and accumulate debt! Debt collectors will come after you! Adjustable value!
Tax Me Cowboy
🎯 Module introduction
"Now we own you, Mr. Marston, and we own Mr. Milton. We own your property, but you can buy your freedom every week."
❤️ Original intention of creation
I love this punishment mechanism!
After installing a number of popular mods that make money, I wanted a passive way to spend those hard-earned dollars that fit within the context of the game.
⚡ Core Functions
**📅 Tax System:**
- Pay taxes once a month
- Pay taxes every week on the 7th, 14th, 21st and 28th of each month
**💰 Debt Mechanism:**
- Unpaid taxes and penalties can accumulate into debt
- Debt continues to accumulate each tax cycle if there are not enough funds to pay it
- Debts can be paid in full at any post office
**🎮 Practical functions:**
- Hold L-ALT to see current debt amount and in-game date
- When the debt reaches $500, bounty hunters (debt collectors) will start hunting you
⚙️ Custom settings
Contains INI configuration file, all values can be adjusted:
- **Weekly Base Tax:** $25.00
- **Weekly Penalty 1:** +$25.00 (triggered when spending over $500 during the week)
- **Weekly Penalty 2:** +$50.00 (triggered when spending over $1000 in the week)
- **Monthly Base Tax:** $100.00
- **Monthly Penalty 1:** +$125.00 (triggered when monthly consumption exceeds $1500)
- **Monthly Penalty 2:** +$275.00 (triggered when monthly consumption exceeds $3,000)
🚨 Notes
- Taxes for the month will be charged immediately when the game is first loaded
- If loading for the first time on "Weekly Tax Day", tax for that week will also be collected
- It is recommended to use it in the final chapter of the game. The Arthur chapter has not been tested.
- The auto-save function has not been tested and is recommended to be turned off.
- Remember to back up your saves!

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions
- Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
- There is no universal mod manager for this game: some mods replace game files directly, some go into a game-specific Mods folder, and some need a game-specific community loader or tool first — follow the bundled readme.
- Place the files exactly as the readme says; mods with listed dependencies need those installed too.
- Launch the game to confirm it loaded; some games require enabling mods in settings or an in-game mod menu.
Install locations vary a lot between games and mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
