This update introduces Ghanja and brings balance improvements, updated plants, scrapwork tweaks, new survival starts, and even working outhouses.

Please note this mod is "stable" at version 4.0 and NOT currently in development. Please feel free to give feedback, but I am not working on Kenshi modding currently Thanks!

"This mod is a complete overhaul of the Interactive World mod, originally created by Stupendous Man. The original mod is AMAZING and brought significant depth to Kenshi, offering a rich survivalist experience with new resources, crafting options, and immersive gameplay. This patch aligns the mod more closely with vanilla systems and the current mod ecosystem, while preserving the creativity and early-game intent of the original work."

The initial focus of this project was on cleaning up IW, solidifying core features, and working towards a balanced experience aligned with Kenshi's vanilla feel. Tonechild started this work and now I (and Team_on!) have taken up the mantle in expanding this vision. A vision of adding more modern survival gameplay options to Kenshi! Check out the links and notes below, and the mod images above, for information on IWK+ logging, research, buildings, crops, and more.
