Thanks to
Jedi Master Ailan
for his direction and inspiration in the creation of this mod. Without his help and support this would have never happened.

Quick start notes:
Lightsabers can be constructed at the component assembly bench.
Crystals can be refined from rocks at the electric smelter.
Rare crystals can be found out in RimWorld for sale from merchants or at enemy bases.
Legendary crystals can be found similarly to artifacts as well as in the clutches of Star Wars faction leaders.

Technical Details Information
Lightsabers could be the most extensive C# coded weapons available in RimWorld.
Included on a lightsaber are the following C# libraries:
  • Extra sounds Component
  • Activatable visual effect component
  • Crystal slot loadable component
  • Oversized weapon component
  • Deflection and reflection component
  • Customized lightsaber C# library

Most of these elements can be used by other modders by relocating the assemblies to their own mod folder to make their own mods using these components. So if you'd like to make a gun with different kinds of loadable ammunition, or a different sort of laser sword, now is a good time.
