Map Reroll

Mod, 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, 1.3


This mod allows you to quickly randomize your starting map and steam vents locations. Your starting scenario, colonists, items, etc. will all stay the same.
Now includes the map preview generator- rather than trying for random maps, you can pick exactly the map you're looking for from a nearly limitless selection.

Of course, there is a small price to pay- in the form of unmined resources...

The resource cost is optional and can be disabled in the Options > Mod Options dialog.

Important: The HugsLib library mod must also be installed. Make sure both are enabled in the Mods menu and HugsLib is loaded first.

Map Reroll works well with Kiame's Configurable Maps mod.



Warning
Use your best judgment when rerolling, and make sure your game has been saved.
This mod has been designed to work with the vanilla game. Mods that include or affect map generation may not work or behave in unexpected ways.

Is this mod safe to use?

The mods are repacked as is, without any additional software, malware, or bloatware added. To check for viruses, use a reliable antivirus or upload the archive to a website like virustotal.com. Anyway, It's always a good practice to keep backups of your saves in case of mod incompatibility .

There is a folder in the .zip archive. To install the mod, move the entire folder (not just its contents) into 'Mods' folder located under your RimWorld root isntallation folder.
So, for steam version of the game, the path would look like this: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\RimWorld\Mods
For any other distribution, firstly locate your rimworld installation path and then unpack the archive into the 'Mods' folder.
Then enable the mod in the game mods menu by double clicking on its name and restart the game
