Fire Extinguisher Mod adds a practical firefighting tool for your colonists, including extinguishers, foam mechanics, and additional fire-safety equipment to better control and manage fires in your colony.
Fire Extinguisher Features
- Fire extinguisher tool: Adds a usable firefighting item crafted at the machining table using steel and components.
- Research integration: Requires dedicated Fire Extinguisher research available in its own tab.
- Fire foam system: Optional foam mechanic that degrades over time and helps clean filth as an active detergent.
- Cleaning interaction: Foam can be automatically cleaned if within an allowed cleaning zone.
- Dedicated storage: Adds a special shelf for storing extinguishers, built from metal or stone.
- Fire foam belt: Wearable belt that automatically triggers when the pawn is on fire, or can be manually activated near flames.
- Crafting expansion: Belt becomes available after fire foam research.
- AI expansion (planned): Fire Warden behavior for pawns to actively fight fires using extinguishers.
- Simple Sidearms support: Includes compatibility patch to prevent extinguishers from being selected in combat.
- Pacifist interaction: Pawns incapable of violence can use extinguishers unless Simple Sidearms Mod is active.
- Save compatibility: Can be added to existing saves, but all related items must be removed before uninstalling.
- Configurable settings: Changes in mod options require a game restart to take effect.
Compatibility notes
- Save compatibility: Safe to add mid-save. To remove, all mod-related items must be cleared first.
- Simple Sidearms interaction: Alters usage rules and prevents extinguishers from being selected during combat.
- Pacifist limitation: Extinguishers are technically classified as weapons, which may restrict usage depending on mods.
- Settings update note: Restart RimWorld after changing mod options.
- Version upgrade warning: When upgrading from older versions, old config files may cause errors and should be removed.
- Translations: Includes French and updated Traditional Chinese translations.
