== Installing Mods ==
 +
Mods can be acquired using the steam workshop page (if using steam version), through Ludeon Forums, or through third party websites (use at your own risk!). When using the steam workshop, all you have to do is to subscribe to a mod, and steam will do the rest. It takes more effort to install mods from other places, however. This is done by downloading mods, then moving the mod files to the "mods" folder in the game files. The game files are accessed through typing "appdata" in the search bar of the file explorer, going to the LocalLow folder, then opening the "Rimworld by Ludeon Studios" folder.

Unless a player is playing “vanilla” (using no mods) it would be unusual for any two players to have exactly the same mix of mods. Each player picks and chooses what they want to “improve” their version of the game, according to their own preferences and play style, and what they think is “fun”. There is no “right/wrong” way to select the mods you want to use, or don't use. Use hundreds of mods, a select few, or none at all!

And if the mod you're looking for doesn't exist, feel free to ''create'' it! In fact, Ludeon has utilities built-in to the game to make using and sharing mods easier, and this wiki hosts a number of [[Modding Tutorials|helpful tutorials]] to help you get started!

* '''Cosmetic''': This category of mods, changes only how the game ''looks'', not how it ''plays''. Examples are hairstyles, clothing colors and styles, existing animals that come in a greater variety of coloration, an adaptation of an existing feature with simply a different appearance, etc. You could have a “vanilla” ''playing'' game that looks far from the vanilla game.

−
* '''User Interface''': There are many utility mods that add new, useful menus, lists and/or commands. These are “quality of life” improvements, which (usually) do not change how the game plays, but make playing the game ''much'' easier. Examples would be an expanded and detailed inventory, medical lists for all colonists/prisoners/animals/hostiles, or a 10-color “planning” overlay.

* '''Game changes''': These actually change the game itself, adding additional items and/or complexities. It might be as subtle as a new lighting item or orange jump-suits you can make for prisoners; a moderate change with a favorite new animal species, dog breed or furniture type. Or might be a mod that adds overpowered weapons that will instantly kill anyone when getting shot with. You can even have a “magical” RimWorld that replaces anything “technological” with spells and potions (although that ''could'' be a purely cosmetic change, depending on the mod). No one (except the authors themselves and player “peer review”) checks these for “game balance”, so anything is fair game, limited only by the creativity (and sanity) of fan coders. Consider before you slap in something like this, then enjoy your decision.

Some mods might not work together, especially if they have overlap or add a lot of content to the game. Be wary of large mod collections from the steam workshop for this reason.

== Installing Mods ==
+
 
−
Mods can be acquired using the Steam workshop page (if using Steam version), through Ludeon Forums, or through third party websites (use at your own risk!). When using the Steam workshop, all you have to do is to “Subscribe” to a mod, and Steam will do the rest. It takes more effort to install mods from other places, however. This is done by downloading mods, then moving the mod files to the “local mods” folder in the game files. You can find the local mods folder in the same directory as where your game is installed. Type in %Appdata% in the search bar of the file explorer, going to the LocalLow folder, then opening the “Rimworld by Ludeon Studios” folder, here you can find the mod config and your save games.
