RimWorld Mod List Autosort

# ModdingTools.com - RimWorld Support Added

Hello everyone,

I've recently added **RimWorld support** to ModdingTools.com and wanted to share it with the community.

Before I go any further, I want to acknowledge that **RimWorld already has established load order tools and community resources available**, and I'm not claiming to replace them. Many of those projects have helped countless players build stable mod lists and deserve a lot of credit.

My goal with ModdingTools.com has always been a little different.

Rather than focusing on a single game, I'm trying to build a platform that can analyze and organize mod lists across multiple heavily modded games. RimWorld is now supported alongside:

* Bannerlord
* Crusader Kings III
* Stellaris
* Project Zomboid
* Hearts of Iron IV

The RimWorld analyzer scans installed mods, reads mod metadata, and generates a recommended load order using community load order conventions, dependency information, and custom sorting rules.

The project is still evolving and there are undoubtedly edge cases and unusual mod combinations I haven't encountered yet. RimWorld's modding scene is enormous, and real-world mod lists are the best way for me to improve the analyzer over time.

If you decide to give it a try, I'd greatly appreciate any feedback, bug reports, unusual mod setups, or examples where the recommended order can be improved.

Thank you to everyone who takes the time to test it and provide feedback. Every analyzed mod list helps improve the analyzer and make future recommendations more accurate for the community.
