How Many Mods Do You Have?

[Cynical Nerdist]

I have something along the lines of what I like to call "Modder's Anxiety" when it comes to modding games because I feel like going overboard on mods will ruin the stability of the game. (Which happens, of course.)

I just would like to know how many mods you guys currently have loaded up in Rimworld, just so that I can get a general understanding of what the vague, acceptable number of mods is according to the community.

I currently have 30. Is that getting to be too many or am I way behind?
Thanks! :D

I have 71, couple of those isnt in use currently.
Those mods really make game even better and still they dont make it easier or spoil it.

So many that when I increase the game spped to 3, it lags.

I have 148. I've run 30+ pawn colonies for 4+ years in A15 and A16 on 250x250 maps and 50% globe revealed like this. No reall problems but some stutter. There's a LOT of quality of life stuff here, not just extra content.

On the flipside, I have a 3 pawn ice sheet colony on a 400x400 map/100% globe revealed that is causing me to run out of memory for the game (3.5gb).

Jesus, man. I'd go insane trying to run 30+ pawns. (That sounds fun tho)

And yea that makes me feel a bit better. I have a lot of room to expand without running into performance problems, I see.

I have around 100 mods activated, and another 40ish that aren't activated or updated. I'd have more, but I don't like to play with alot of mods which add game breaking stuff and there's alot that are incompatible.. so, yeah.

I've never had more than around 20 colonists in one colony, I just simply find late game boring (hence I normally just imprison pawns which fall from the sky to increase my warden's social skill for the Hospitality mod and delete the majority of wanderers with dev mode)

You wont have lag issues generally, but rimworld is 34bit, so you will have to save quite frequently.

I have about 20, yet I lag at 2x speed... It's because my computer is a toaster though, mods make it slightly worse, but worth it imo XD

[Daffy]

just checked i run 27 mods .. no issue atall so far, most of my mods dont change the gameplay atall just adds more options like more things to grow or cook.

[KalkiKrosah]

You all put me to shame. I only have 4:
Plan Carefully
Medieval Times
More factions
Halo ODST

And I have yet to run the Halo one.

Those having problems with lag might want to check out the World Pawn GC mod (yeah, another mod...)

Thanks for the responses, all!

I'm guessing I use around 30 mods as well. I have more subscriptions than that, but actively running, prolly 30ish.

I occasionally have an error message pop up in the log, but I have never actually had a mod related bug or error that was any trouble at all.

Now that there are a couple of mod solutions for the mod-related research window bug, I don't see any reason to not mod up.

I have 37, Due to the Hardcore SK modpack. I'm looking for a modpack with atleast a 100 though xD
