As some of you may know, I made the Smokeleaf Industry mod.  I was recently notified by a user on Steam that someone else had uploaded a mod that is using all my art and code.  This mod, called "More Smokeleaf", uses my mod as a base and adds a some other stuff on top of it (just strains as far as I can tell). 

For proof check the dates on the uploads and check the pics: 
here's mine:https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1140051385
here is the offending mod:https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1590127548

The pics show my art in this mod, and the same exact research tree (he didn't even change the names).

The "creator" never contacted me for permission to use anything and now I really don't want them using it.  I'm looking for advice on how to deal with this.  Do I report to Steam?  Try and deal with it myself?

It would really suck if Rimworld modding went the way of Fallout and Skyrim with the whole stolen mod controversy.

Edit:  I've downloaded the mod and compared the art files and the code.  This person just changed the prefix of all my xml files, defNames and art files.  Descriptions are the same, all values are the same.  They've added on to my mod a little and taken a few things out but they also left stuff in the files that isn't being used (ie my terrain art, references to custom dll's).  Gotta say, I'm a little about this...

[1.0] Smokeleaf Industry - Lite v1.1b

Description

Smokeleaf Industry - Lite is a mod that adds various new drugs, foods, medicines, building materials and more all based around Smokeleaf cultivation and processing. All items added by the mod are based on real world applications of "smokeleaf" and it's byproducts. Medicinal, recreational and industrial uses are all included. Research must be conducted in order to unlock the various items and their uses. This "Lite" Version was made at the request of many people. It includes a lot less than the original mod, but has all the things that I felt were "Smokeleaf Industry".

Note: Many aspects of the vanilla smokeleaf joint have been changed.
Most importantly, the recipe now requires smokeleaf buds that can be obtained by trimming your plants.
Trimming and rolling are unlocked after researching Smokeleaf Cultivation.

Installation/Updating

Unzip the downloaded archive and place the contents in your RimWorld/Mods folder. Then, activate the mod in the mod menu in-game.

If you want to install mid-game, make sure you have no bills for making Smokeleaf joints set first. If you have Vegetable Garden Project, remove any hemp fabric you might have first, and then activate SI.
Should be ok, but no guarantees and not recommended.

To update, delete the Smokeleaf Industry folder in your RimWorld/Mods folder and unzip and place the updated mod in the folder.

Requirements

None, but, if you have any Vegetable Garden mods installed, put Smokeleaf Industry after it.

Compatibility

Probably not compatible with any other mods that depend on the vanilla smokeleaf joint recipe.  Should be good with everything else. 
If not, please let me know.

Compatibility Patches

All mod compatibility patches are now included in the main mod thanks to ModCheck

I'm trying to add a torch-like object and the flame appears both when it is first built and there is no fuel in it and when it runs out of fuel.  It also doesn't light up when first built.   I basically copied the Core Torch file directly over and changed some stuff around for my object, so I'm at a loss for why it's not working.

Is it possible to have the fire overlay disappear when the "destroyOnNoFuel" tag is set to false?  And have the fire only appear once it is fueled or have it fueled upon construction?

RimTweaks v1.0

RimTweaks is a collection of quality of life patches and additions.  The goal was to reduce some of the mod clutter that was piling up in my list.  I started with a few quality of life changes and, as I read through more of the code and played the game more, I started to make changes here and there.  Bulk recipes were added for stone blocks and smelting slag.  Research and a recipe was added for Glitterworld Medicine.  Cutting Stone blocks skill was returned to Crafting.  Power use was reduced in a lot of things after I got sick of spamming solar panels and batteries everywhere.  Facilities were altered.  Recipes changed.  Things that didn't make sense were fixed (for example, eating human meat was more traumatizing then eating a corpse...not sure about you, but I'd freak out more gnawing on a leg than eating a slice of one).  Raids are increased a bit, as are manhunter packs.

Nothing was removed from the game. All of the annoying things are still there, but some of them are made less annoying.  Other things were made more challenging, and others just fix things I felt weren't right with the game (another example: the penalties for living in a hot environment were more severe than those for living in a cold one. I made them even.).

See the changelog on Github or in the About folder for a full list of changes.

So, I'm working on a companion mod for Smokeleaf Industry that adds a new faction for trading.  I have everything set and made, but when a visitor/caravan enters the map the game freezes for a minute or so and I get this error:

Or, it just freezes then crashes and I get the "Too Many Heaps" warning.  I'm pretty sure that it has something to do with the pawnGroupMaker, but after comparing to other mods and core factions, I can't find anything wrong.  I have the feeling I'm missing something simple...    Just wanted to see if anyone could help me figure this one out.  If anyone wants to see my faction/pawn xml let me know and I'll post it.  Thanks in advance.

So, I've been meaning to ask about this for a bit now.  What is the purpose of the empty list in the <stages> of the addiction HediffDef?

Here's what I mean:


If it gets removed, when a pawns dependency hits zero they freeze and no information is available in the Needs or Health tabs.  I made this mistake with my mod and am now curious as to what it does.  Is it meant to be like that? 

Hey all

So I just posted my first mod, Smokeleaf Industry, and had a user ask for a patch for another mod.  I was able to get a patch working fine with xpathing, so, no problems there, works as intended. 

My question is, is it better to release the patch as a separate download, or can it be left in my main mod?  I tried running my patched mod without the other mod and everything seemed to be working normally.  I'm new at this stuff and just want to make sure I'm following good practices.

Thanks
