Hello, I'm brand new to the forums and love this game. When I have a few mods I can more or less figure out the order. Like where HugsLib and JecsTools go, that part I understand.

Core
HugsLib
JecsTools


It's when I have several mods. How am i supposed to organize these mods properly? The errors that pop up aren't always helpful other than something is wrong. Thanks for your assistance.

trading spot 1.0

Hi,
generell the load order doesn't matter if the mod's are designed well.
But some mod's are based on other mods and these are needed to load before.
Like many mod's need hugslib or jecstools, all race mods need the Alien framework....
But you can use a mod sorting tool like

And don't forget, better don't use a mod when it cause error's at rimworld startup then to risk a critical error later during gameplay.

Jecrell has made a mod order guide that you can find on Discord.

This is the error it is giving me when trying to gen a new world. I have no idea what these mean other then something wasn't generated but I have no idea how to figure out why...
