Tools / [Tool] RPM - RimWorld Package Manager
January 18, 2017, 02:57:02 AM

Like CKAN, but for RimWorld.
If you don't know about it, CKAN is a tool that handles dependencies, conflicts and updates for mods.

This is still in a pre-release state, so some features may not be implemented and some bugs may still exist.
Works with Linux under Mono.

Current features:

  • Conflicts, recommendations and dependencies supported
  • Updating installed mods
  • Integration with GitHub (via adapter repository)

Roadmap / planned features:

  • Installation dialog
  • Multiple repo support
  • XML and DLL conflict checking
  • More that i've forgotten

Project: https://github.com/R-RPM/RPM
Current (pre) release: https://github.com/R-RPM/RPM/releases/latest

Note: If you currently wish to run it, you must set the directory that the program is installed in (the path which Rimworld.exe is currently in) to the respective entry in the Settings tab, and restart the program. I currently don't know how to properly auto-scan for this folder (especially for Linux/Mac) so this is manual for now.
