A Dead Man's Collection - NPC's The Dead Man's Switch Collection

dead man switch

dead * man * switch | /dɛd mæn swɪt͡ʃ/

1. A switch that automatically triggers an action (for instance, to stop a machine or vehicle) if a specified input from the operator is not made or is altered.

Millennia earlier, the threat of archotech war machines, pirates and awry bio-organic weapons arose. Nara, an Interstellar Industries Complex, initiated the project of semi-automated war-machines, which aimed at creating a legion of war-machines with low technology and maintenance requirements to aid humans in all galaxies in the war against all those threats.

It was a quite successful project, and as countless fleets of unknown generations of ships marched toward the borders of human civilization, the production technology of these weapons also spread in the edge world... until today.

- Intro to The Dead Man's Switch by AOBA

THIS COLLECTION FEATURES:

MULTIPLAYER COMPATABILITY



All mods checked with the Multiplayer Modlist Spreadsheet to guarantee compatability in 1.5 Multiplayer. All of these mods have been manually checked to ensure compatability with multiplayer for the smoothest experience with others.

BASIC QUALITY OF LIFE MODS



Every mod has already been sorted in the collection! Simply copy the order of which the mods appear in this collection for the optimal load order via RimPy.

Simple quality of life mods that almost every RimWorld player has. From Common Sense, RimHUD and RPG Style Inventory, anything to make RimWorld a little less daunting (and frustrating) for the average and even experienced player.

BECOME THE ULTIMATE BADASS



Incredibly powerful addons such as Quality Bionics and Yet another prosthetic expansion mod - Core. With uncapped skills, peak human lethality and combat prowess is at your fingertips. Become a psychic mechanitor, the ultimate Dragoon pilot, or an unstoppable super soldier. The choices are endless.

END NOTE



Thank you to my girlfriend for inspiring me to create this collection and this much effort.

Thank you to AOBA for their amazing universe of The Dead Man's Switch.

Thank you for taking your time to read this.
