How to Install Mods on your RimWorld Together Server

Mods can add new mechanics, items, factions, and gameplay systems to RimWorld, allowing you to customize the experience on your server. RimWorld Together handles mods through the in game mod manager, which synchronizes mod settings between the server and connected players.

Before adding mods, it is recommended to start a new save to avoid compatibility issues with existing worlds.
