How to Setup Kick.com for RICS (Rimworld Interactive Chat Services)

NOTE: Kick.com support is in Beta. Please create an issue and or post on Discord

Important: 2-Factor Authentication (2FA) is REQUIRED
Kick.com only allows developer apps if your account has 2FA enabled.
If you haven't enabled it yet, you will not be able to create the app.

Step-by-Step Guide (2 minutes)

1. Log into Kick.com

Go to https://kick.com and log in with the account you stream with.

2. Open Settings

Click your channel picture (top-left corner) → Settings.

3. Enable 2FA (if not already done)

Go to the Security tab → Enable 2FA.
(This is mandatory — you cannot skip this step.)

4. Go to Developer Tab

Switch to the Developer tab.

5. Create Your App

Click "Create an App" (big green button) and fill it exactly like this:

  • Application Name: RICS
  • App Description:
    Its a mod for the game Rimworld that allows viewers to interact with the game Rimworld directly using commands from chat
  • Redirect URL:
    https://github.com/ekudram/cap-RimworldInteractiveChatServices
  • Enable webhooks: Leave OFF

6. Select the Correct Scopes

Check exactly these boxes (uncheck everything else):

  • ✅ Read user information (including email address)
  • ✅ Write to Chat feed ← Required
  • ✅ Subscribe to events (read chat feed, follows, subscribers, gifts)
  • ✅ Execute moderation actions on chat messages
  • ✅ Execute moderation actions for moderators
  • ✅ Read Channel points rewards information on a channel ← future support

Leave unchecked:

  • Read stream key
  • Update channel information
  • Read, add, edit and delete Channel points rewards
  • Read KICKs related information
  • Read Channel information

Click the green "Create App" button.

7. Copy Your Keys

After creation you will see:

  • Client ID — copy this
  • Client Secret — copy this immediately (shown only once!)

⚠️ Never share your Client Secret. Treat it like a password.

Paste Keys into RICS

  1. Open RimWorld → Mods → [CAP] RICS → Settings
  2. Switch to the Kick tab
  3. Enter:
    • Channel Name (or Channel Slug) = the part after kick.com/
      Example: https://kick.com/captolamia → type captolamia
    • Client ID = paste the long ID
    • Client Secret = click "Paste Client Secret" button
  4. (Optional) Check "Auto-connect on startup"
  5. Click "Connect to Kick"

You should see "Connected to Kick" in green.

Troubleshooting

  • "Cannot Connect" button is gray?
    Make sure Channel Name + Client ID + Client Secret are all filled.

  • "Oops something went wrong" on kick.com?
    This is common with Brave browser. Temporarily turn off Brave Shields (lion icon in address bar) or try Chrome/Edge.

  • Client Secret not working?
    Delete the app in Kick Settings → Developer tab and create it again.

  • Still stuck?
    Open an issue on GitHub or ask in the RICS Discord.

You're done!
Your viewers can now use all RICS commands (!buy, !event, etc.) directly in your Kick chat.

Enjoy the interactive stream! 🎮
