[Sk] Hard RimWorld Optimization
Hard RimWorld Optimization (HRWO) is a lightweight performance mod focused on reducing TPS load in large and long-running colonies. I'm making it for myself (for my old save and many others), use it at your own risk. I'm trying to make it safe and useful. If you have any problems/questions or want to suggest new features, please contact me
The goal is simple: keep the game responsive without changing core gameplay balance. All features are configurable and can be enabled or disabled individually.
Features:
• Wildlife Optimization
Throttles factionless neutral animals to significantly reduce idle AI load. Optional exclusions for predators and animals near colonists.
• Turret Optimization
Reduces unnecessary target scans when no threats are present, improving performance in heavily fortified bases.
• Prisoner Optimization
Throttles idle prisoners to reduce AI overhead in prison-heavy colonies while keeping interactions responsive.
• Quest Optimization
Optimizes natural quest selection and normalizes invalid point calls (points ≤ 0) to prevent stutters and scaling issues.
Includes safe fallback logic to preserve vanilla behavior.
• Plant Optimization
Reduces the load from plants by reducing the frequency of their updates depending on their state and importance
(home zone, wild, fully grown). At the same time, missed ticks are compensated, so the growth rate and age of plants
remain completely vanilla — only the frequency of calculations changes, not the gameplay.
• Faction UI Improvement
Compacts hostile faction icons in the Factions tab for cleaner layout and minor UI performance benefits.
(Sry Warachia, i do it before i find your mod, i dont touch your code, but functional same)
This mod is designed to be safe, modular, and compatible with most gameplay mods.
However, as with any optimization mod, use at your own discretion and test in your mod list.
I recommend you try it too:

Good luck, and enjoy smoother colonies.
