Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: Is this mod compatible with WorldEdit (RimWorld version 1.1/1.2)?
A: No, because WorldEdit uses an outdated version of Harmony and needs to be updated.

Q: Is this mod compatible with Rim War (RimWorld version 1.2)?
A: This mod prevents Rim War's button from appearing on the generate world page. Fixing this from this mod's end seems infeasible due to code differences.

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
