RimWorld Performance Booster

Description
What this mod does
- Makes RimWorld run smoother and more stable.
- Spreads heavy work over time and uses multiple CPU cores.
- Reduces stutter on large maps and with many pawns/effects.

Key features (all optional in settings)
- Effect budget: Caps new motes/flecks per tick; scales with zoom/time; offscreen culling.
- Sound limiter: Short cooldown for repeated sounds to avoid spam.
- Snow batching: Updates far snow less often; visible tiles update immediately.
- Glow throttle: Offscreen light updates less often; onscreen always immediate.
- Mesh debounce: Bundles repeated offscreen mesh updates briefly to cut spikes.
- Reachability cache (TTL): Short-lived cache for "can reach" checks.
- Repath debounce: Prevents excessive re-pathing within a short window.
- Prewarm caches on load: Precomputes safe hints after loading a save.

Experimental (opt‑in)
- Scanner striding, ThinkTree idle striding, PowerNet batching, faster autosave compression.
- May slightly delay updates in rare cases. Toggle only if needed.

Safe to use
- No new content, no balance changes.
- Can be enabled/disabled any time. Requires Harmony.

Tips
- After changing many settings, restart the game.
- If something looks off, enable Safe Mode and report the issue.
- Diagnostics: This mod does not suppress errors or warnings; logs remain fully visible.

I had to remove this mod from my list, as it caused a error where pawns would just not perform tasks and just stand in place while holding items. Which was a shame, because it really did impact my performance. Will keep eye on for when it's updated though!

Consider integrating an alternative to this mod: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3568990757

Hello, admin here. Your mod does a lot of unwelcome things, including (but not limited to) completely hiding the error logs from users, something that is needed for troubleshooting. If your mod is so broken that you need to hide the error logs, then it is not ready to be published.

I'm removing your mod from the workshop. Please take some time to fix it before uploading it again.

Somwthing strange is that this mod is causing fluid ideology once a year rituals to be infinite and provide max points while not unpleasant i would kinda like this to not be a thing.
