# Rimworld Mod Template 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. ## Setup 1. Download and install [.NET Core SDK](https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-core) and [.Net Framework 4.7.2 Developer Pack]( https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet-framework/net472). This step can be skipped if you already have C# packages from Visual Studio. 2. Instal [C# extension](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ms-dotnettools.csharp). 3. Clone or pull this template into your Rimworld `Mods` folder. ## 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.
