ABOUT
Do your colonists have secrets too scandalous for RimGPT? Choose RimWorldAI, a privacy-first AI mod that doesn't need an internet connection or an expensive online service to work. The Core mod is the essential framework that bridges RimWorld with the latest AI technology. On its own, it allows a one-click install of an AI model balanced for your hardware, supports any language, and works anywhere you can install RimWorld mods (still negotiating peace with Macs). As long as your computer was built in the last 10 years and won’t make you pedal a bike to keep it running, you're good to go. Don’t forget to try one of the expansions, like RimWorldAI Items, a mod which enhances art with AI descriptions, to show what RimWorldAI is capable of.
CONTENT
As this is the base framework, there isn't much content other than some nice UI. Please check out the other RimWorldAI additions:

FAQ
[b]Q: What is RimWorldAI?[/b]
A: RimWorldAI is a framework that allows AI to interact with various parts of your colony, similar to RimGPT. The difference being that RimWorldAI runs COMPLETELY OFFLINE, no fiddly setup required!
[b]Q: How do I install RimWorldAI?[/b]
A: Just subscribe to this mod, which contains the content necessary to interact with the AI from in-game. The welcome message will prompt you to download the AI itself. No need to wait for it though! RimWorldAI will activate on its own once it's ready.
[b]Q: Can I run this on my Windows/Linux/Mac computer?[/b]
A: Yes! A lot of time was spent making sure the mod runs anywhere. Even on unexpected platforms, such as handheld PCs like the Steam Deck or ROG Ally. *(may have issues on mac, looking into this)
[b]Q: Why does the initial setup require downloading large files?[/b]
A: RimWorldAI adapts to your computer hardware. If you have a beefy graphics card, we want to put it to good use! This means a larger AI, for better quality interactions in-game. See the table below for details on how the AI is chosen and how much you can expect to download (subject to change).

[b]Q: Can RimWorldAI run without an internet connection?[/b]
A: RimWorldAI runs completely offline and can be updated through Steam. However, the AI bundle may experience important bug fixes and improvements. RimWorldAI will automatically update these files for you. At any time, you may opt to turn off this feature by disabling "Check for Updates Automatically." For convenience, I've included a way for you to manually check for updates whenever you like!
[b]Q: How performance-friendly is this mod?[/b]
A: RimWorldAI itself is very performant thanks to modern coding techniques. However, you may notice an impact in FPS while the AI is running. I have done my best to choose the smallest and most capable AI models that work for most hardware.
[b]Q: Help! I'm using the bigger model, but it's running slower![/b]
A: Counter-intuitively, the bigger models will sometimes run slower than the smaller ones, even when using a big GPU. If you believe yours is running *too* slow, or you have feedback on which models should be chosen for your hardware, please reach out in [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2F2myVTZerTV]Discord[/url][discord.gg].
[b]Q: I want to remove this mod! Will it mess up my save?[/b]
A: All my RimWorldAI mods are safe to add or remove mid-save.
[b]Q: Do you accept suggestions?[/b]
A: Yes! I'm always interested in hearing new ideas on how AI could interact with RimWorld. Feel free to drop a message in #suggestions in [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fdiscord.gg%2F2myVTZerTV]Discord[/url][discord.gg].
[b]Q: RimWorldAI is amazing! Can I help contribute?[/b]
A: Thank you. Absolutely! RimWorldAI was only possible due to the many recent technical advancements that it relies on. Therefore, it's as much of a research project as it is a mod. That doesn't mean it's hard to help though! If you're ready to jump in, go ahead and check out the [url=https://steamcommunity.com/linkfilter/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Figoforth%2FRWAILib]GitHub[/url][github.com]. Otherwise, please reach out to me in Discord and I'd be happy to get you started.
