Editing Version/1.1.0

RimWorld versions 1.1, a major update from version 1.0, is now available for public testing and modding on Steam’s unstable beta branch. That’s right everyone – RimWorld is done, but that doesn’t mean we’re done with it!

You can find a full change log for this update at the bottom of this post. This update will be released to the default branch soon. We’ve placed it on the unstable branch now to get in some final testing, and to smooth out the transition for mods.

If you want to help test, right-click RimWorld in your Steam library list, click Properties, then select the ‘betas’ tab. Select ‘unstable’ from the drop-down list. Note that this version is unstable and might break.

We will be carefully watching for critical bugs and fixing them! If you find anything, please post about it on the Bugs forum.

===About compatibility===

If you’re playing without mods: You’ll be able to update and continue playing on the new version without interruption.
If you’re playing with mods: Simple data-only mods, like new hairstyles, will probably work on the new version without changes. Complex mods will break. If you’re using complex mods, I recommend that you set your Steam branch to version-1.0. Then, set it back to default after your mods have been updated in a few weeks. Anyone can keep playing on version 1.0 as long as they wish, using the version-1.0 branch.
For modders: We did a lot of work before 1.0 and in this version to make updating as painless as possible. There’s a guide to updating mods to 1.1 included in the game files, called ModUpdating.txt. Modder Brrainz has also written a separate online guide here – thanks to him! You can also get live help with modding on the RimWorld Discord server.

The game now includes a system for handling multi-version mods, so there is no need to make multiple Workshop items or break old mod uploads by updating them in-place. (Mods which gain support for 1.1 will create an error on the log in version 1.0, but this error is harmless. It’s just because there is some new XML data in the About.xml file which 1.0 can’t interpret.)

Big thanks to Oskar Potocki for donating his Vanilla Animals mod to become part of the core game.

* Optimizations to many systems. Performance should be significantly better, especially in complex game situations with many pawns.
* Faction icons are now differentiated by shape as well as color, to help out colorblind players.
