Author of the Prepare Carefully Mod: EdB
The Prepare Carefully mod allows you to customize your RimWorld colonists, choose your gear and prepare for your crash landing! Use the optional point limits to try to create a balanced start or keep points disabled to build the starting group that you always wanted to try. Save your setup as a preset so that you can start your game the same way later.
Once you enable the mod, start a game normally and you will see a new button named “Prepare Carefully”. The new window will allow you to customize your colonists appearance, clothes, backstory, traits and skills. You can also customize the starting resources and equipment.
Quick tip: Shift+Click to increase the amount of resources by 10 at a time.
Prepare Carefully Mod Review
Summary
The Prepare Carefully Mod is one you can’t play without once you’ve tried it. Customize your starting pawns to until they fit the story you have in mind. Allowing you to fully customize your starting characters seems like something that should be included with the base game. Definitely a must have!
