Mods that Owlchemist either made, or forked and continued.

Just an old school gamer and hobbyist programmer. I have some background working on a game in unity for a few years, and I eventually took my know-how to Rimworld to make mods. I used to be part of the Hardcore SK team and have been playing since A11.

I like mods that:

• Don't increase how powerful pawns and the colony can potentially become over vanilla, and instead pad out the content and make it harder to reach the established cap.
  
• Do not introduce new content or mechanics that would allow the player to side step around core obstacles in the game, or if they do, at least substitute new challenges that come as a byproduct.
  
• Improve the graphics and life of the game without changing its style.

I make smaller mods, which begs the question: could I merge them together into larger mods? Maybe I will, but maybe not. It's not that simple.

You see, there's no real technical advantage to merging mods together. Rest assured, there is no notable overhead that comes with using lots of smaller mods. In the end, all content is just merged together internally on game load. The only advantage would be convenience to newcomers having fewer mods to subscribe to. But even that comes with a downside - people should be aware of what it is they're subscribing to, and merging everything together into one would by overwhelming to explain all at once.

Furthermore, I'm only human and sometimes make mistakes. If I make a whoopsy and release a bug into the wild, it's best that it only be isolated to an individual mod rather than impacting an entire collection.
