Revision as of 21:48, 27 June 2020

Hello! I'm a modder who's trying to clean up the modding tutorials pages, which are quite out-of-date. So far, I've rewritten the classic Plague Gun tutorial.

If you've been helped by my contributions on this site please check out my mods on Github and Steam.

Sandbox

Version Control Into

An introduction to using Github for version control, with an eye toward Rimworld modding. Will go through my particular setup, and various tips and tricks, like:

  • Having a separate dev folder from the Rimworld mods folder
  • Build events copying from the dev folder into the build folder
  • .gitignore settings

&c

Example Comp Project

This project will teach players how to use ThingComps, load textures in C#, and make gizmos.

Introduction to core mods

This project will teach players how to use basic Harmony patches and demonstrate the use of MapComponents (or maybe game/world ones, idk)
