Achtung!

Achtung! is a RimWorld control mod focused on better colonist commanding: force work, line formations, multi-colonist orders, and lower-friction moment-to-moment control.

Install

Easiest

1. Install Harmony.
2. Download the latest Achtung! release from: https://github.com/pardeike/Achtung2/releases/latest
3. Unzip the Achtung folder into your RimWorld Mods directory.
4. Enable Harmony and Achtung! in RimWorld.

Steam Workshop is also available: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=730936602

Requirements

• RimWorld 1.6
• Harmony (brrainz.harmony)

The repository still carries compatibility assets for older RimWorld versions, but the current release and test workflow target RimWorld 1.6.

Build From Source

git clone https://github.com/pardeike/Achtung2.git
cd Achtung2
dotnet build Source/Achtung.csproj -c Release -p:RIMWORLD_MOD_DIR=/path/to/RimWorld/Mods

That build copies the mod output directly into your RimWorld Mods folder.

What The Mod Adds

• Force-work commands that keep important jobs moving
• Better multi-colonist command handling
• Formation and line movement tools
• Smarter drafting and undrafting behavior around issued commands
• Utility commands such as room cleaning, firefighting, and sowing workflows

Developer Workflow Used In The Bugfix Session

The reproducible mod-debugging stack used for the Pick Up And Haul interaction bug was:

1. Achtung2 for the mod under test
2. RimBridgeServer for live RimWorld inspection and control
3. GABS for starting RimWorld and exposing the bridge tools cleanly to an AI client
4. DecompilerServer for reading RimWorld's managed assemblies while debugging job flow

If you want the same toolchain, start here:

• RimBridgeServer: https://github.com/pardeike/RimBridgeServer
• GABS: https://github.com/pardeike/GABS
• DecompilerServer: https://github.com/pardeike/DecompilerServer

Notes

• Achtung! is designed to minimize save dependencies, but an active custom Achtung job can still be serialized into a save. If you want to remove the mod cleanly from a save, cancel current Achtung jobs first and save again.
• Force-work jobs are intentionally aggressive. They are meant for priority intervention, not soft scheduling.
