RimWorld Mods

A collection of seven mods for RimWorld, mostly C# with Harmony patches alongside plain XML def patches, built to smooth the rough edges of the Biotech mechanoid systems and to fix interactions between other people's mods. Advanced Mech Upgrades rebuilds a mech into its advanced variant in place for half the gestating cost, or lets the mech upgrade itself over time. Mechs Never Die diverts lethal damage on non-hostile mechanoids into the vanilla downed and repair path, while Archotech: Unbreakable Implants caps damage on archotech parts so they break and self-repair instead of being destroyed. Mech Work Types moves mech repair, birthing and subcore encoding out of Smithing into work types of their own. Mech Carrier Fix restores vanilla hauling so resources reach a mech carrier instead of the mech's own inventory, Quarry Drone Patch lets the Drone Factory miner drone work at Quarry plots, and Yayo Auto-Reload repairs the auto-reload trigger in Yayo's Combat 3. Each mod ships as a self-contained folder with its own About.xml, patches and, where needed, defs and language keys, all written against RimWorld 1.6 and 1.7.

What it shows: Targeted runtime patching: every mod hooks the smallest part of the pipeline it needs, keeps vanilla behaviour intact where it should be, and stays independent of the mods it interoperates with.
