This template is created for Rimworld moders who use [Visual Studio Code ](https://code.visualstudio.com/ ) instead od Visual Studio IDE.
* __No virtual folders__. Easy to manage and edit both `xml` and `cs` files.
* __Lightweight__. Visual Studio Code only takes up to 200 MB of storage space and is lighting fast.
* __Automation__. Integrated build, scripting and management tools to perform common tasks making everyday workflows faster.
* __Customization__. Almost every feature can be changed, whenever it is editor UI, keybinds or folder structure.

## Additional notes
By pressing `F5` key VS Code will perform 2 operations: build assembly file and launch Rimworld executable.
Modify `About.xml` and `Mod.csproj` files to match your mod name and version.
All C# intermediate files are kept in `.vscode/obj` folder.
