I have been playing this game for a while now, and after losing track in one of my saves, I decided to try some mods. Boy was that a good choice.

Big thanks to all the mod's authors, especially xpazeman for hosting the mod list website from where I found them.

These are the mods which I've found fantastic to use, along with a short description:

  • Ambient Lights: tweaked lighting, useful indoors mostly so you can see at night better
  • Camping Tools: a lot of items for.. camping
  • Fire Pack: new tools for starting fires
  • Indoors Greenery: farm plants indoors!
  • BetterBases: reorganize any interior to your heart's content
  • Crafting Revisions: improved crafting UI
  • Developer console: saving the game quickly if I have to leave (and definitely not cheats..)
  • PlacingAnywhere: adds very powerful functionality while moving items
  • QoL: UI keyboard control, highly useful
  • Things To Do: API for programming custom actions in UI, includes getting paper from books, unloading lanterns for fuel, crudely repair items without tools, etc

These mods also require the following dependencies:

spoilerModData, ExamineActionsAPI, GearSpawner, KeyboardUtilities, LocalizationUtilities, ModComponent, ModSettings,

This game makes me want to live in a hut near a stream in the winter and just plop logs on the fire, listening to that crackling sound and wondering how I'm gonna survive tomorrow. Life seems so simple when you're away from everything and your only worry is what you're gonna eat for breakfast. It just makes me get away from it all.

Hello, I've been playing this game for ages now, but only sparingly, and still struggle with stuff. It's nice, and a good challenge, but what is an actual good way to get into Interloper? It's just brutal, and I can't seem to find my footing. Much appreciated!
