I know this has been done before but none of the other methods worked for me. I tried some of the other ways on the forum but my rimworld was in a different location and i couldn't find the mods folder so I had to do this:

1.Download the desired mod via ludeon forums and leave it on your desktop or downloads
2.Open Finder and hit "Command+Shift+G" to open the go tab and put in "~/Library". Otherwise just find an access to the library folder on your own.
3.From there go to Application Support>Steam>SteamApps>common>Rimworld
4.Open the folder and right click on the Rimworld game icon and select "Show package contents"
5.Drag and drop the downloaded mod into the "Mods" folder and it should be downloaded in game

Worked for me and wanted to help anyone else with a similar issue!

Where would I put the folder

I usually use the steam workshop to download mods but i found one on the forums and wanted to try it. Ive followed the install directions but can't seem to find my mod folder. Ive check the rimworld thru applications and downloads swell as library and desktop portals. Im using a mac, but I don't think thats the issue. I can't seem to find any other threads on here about missing mods folders either. Looking for help!

Reinstalled steam and it seemed to fix the issue, thanks for the help Calahan!

Okay so I just tried to run the game and I think steam wasn't connected or something because I got a debug screen saying steam wasn't running or something and that without steam running rim world won't save achievements etc... but the game was working fine, with keys responding in game. I quit out and tried again, but with steam fully running, and the game went back to not responding to keys pressed. Because of this I think something on steams end is prohibiting the game from responding to my pressed keys, because when steam isn't connected to rim world it works fine.
EDIT: Im also getting a popup that says "Updating Steam" "Extracting Package" right before the game starts up.

I haven't changed any steam options or features until after the problem, as I changed options in an attempt to fix it. I was testing to see if the problem was through all steam games or just rim world to pinpoint the issue, so i was changing some steam options, but it wasn't until after the problem occurred, not before. Ill try a full reinstatement of the game to see if that fixes the issue.

Yeah the game was running fine for me in b18, i literally encountered the issue randomly one day, so it didn't have to do with  any update. I've tried the full screen/windowed thing and I've cleaned out all other programs as well. I'll try reinstalling the game I guess,but  how can I reinstall without losing the worlds/games I have saved.

I use the english language in game with a standard US keyboard layout, I can link it to you if you'd like.

For some reason in game, rim world won't respond to any keys pressed on my keyboard. any other application on my computer works fine, but rim world won't respond to any keys pressed. In addition to this, when I press keys in rim world for some reason an error sound occurs upon every press. I run rim world on mac and on the steam version, and I have my log file to the game. I do run some mods, but the game was running fine with all the same mods installed previously, and just started to not work today, without any application or system changes being made.
