An unofficial community fork of Pawn Editor for RimWorld 1.5 / 1.6.
⚠ IMPORTANT: Use either this version or the original Pawn Editor — not both at the same time.
🔧 WHAT IS THIS?
Pawn Editor Forked is a community-maintained continuation of Pawn Editor, focused on keeping the mod alive, usable, and safer in modern heavily-modded RimWorld setups.
- Stability fixes
- Mod compatibility
- Safer blueprint save/load
- More reliable pawn duplication
- Quality-of-life improvements for pawn editing
This fork is being tested in very large modlists and is being developed with a strong focus on keeping editing features useful without corrupting pawn data.
📌 CURRENT PROJECT STATUS
The project is still under active stabilization.
Right now, the focus is:
- Fixing long-standing bugs from older versions
- Improving compatibility with heavily modded pawn data
- Cleaning up unsafe or outdated editor actions
- Finishing functional work first before attempting a full UI redesign
✅ WHAT ALREADY WORKS WELL
- Blueprint and duplication systems were heavily reworked and are far more reliable than before
- Many modded pawn systems now survive duplication / save-load much better
- Social cleanup and life-stage-related fixes have been improved
- VAspirE aspiration editing is now usable in pre-colony with a searchable editor, current aspiration preselection, and 4–5 aspiration validation
🚧 WHAT IS STILL BEING WORKED ON
- Remaining legacy bugs from older Pawn Editor behavior
- Compatibility gaps in some modded systems
- Edge-case issues such as invalid pawn spawn positions after duplication/load
- Further VAspirE polish
- Future UI cleanup / redesign once the functional layer is more stable
📝 KNOWN LIMITATIONS
- Some older editor paths are still being reviewed and may behave inconsistently
- Starting Preset save/load still uses the old system and may fail in complex modlists
- Some compatibility work is still ongoing for advanced modded pawn systems
