Basics-Scripting (C#)
This page is in work! - needs code block formatting in particular.

Basics

For now follow the Rimworld setup but instead (at least):

1. Use .NET Framework 4.8 (vs. .NET Framework 4.7.2)
2. In C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\The Colonists\TheColonists_Data\Managed\ (or alternate OS equivalent):
   1. Use Game.dll vs. Rimworld dll
   2. In addition to referencing Assembly-CSharp.dll and UnityEngine.CoreModule.dll, also reference 0Harmony.dll and game.dll.

Framework Sample

This is a basic class which sets up Harmony, registers a custom tech and contains a Harmony prefix for when a player completes a research.

using HarmonyLib;
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Threading.Tasks;
using UnityEngine;

namespace TestMod2 {

    public class TestMod2 {

        static public int CUSTOM_TECH_1_ID = 200;

        [StaticConstructorOnStartup]
        public static int Init() {
            Harmony.DEBUG = true;

            var harmony = new Harmony("testmod2");

            FileLog.Log("testing harmony logging");

            harmony.PatchAll();

            SerialiseFactory.AddCustom(typeof(TechInfo), (byte) CUSTOM_TECH_1_ID, typeof(CustomTechInfo));

            Debug.Log("#TestMod2# Init Complete!");

            return 2;
        }

    }

    [HarmonyPatch(typeof(Player), "OnTechResearched")]
    class Patch {
        static void Prefix(TechID techId) {
            Debug.Log("#TestMod2# OnTechResearched:" + techId);
						if((int) techId == TestMod2.CUSTOM_TECH_1_ID) {
		            FileLog.Log("custom tech researched - myVar: " + techId.ToInfo<CustomTechInfo>().myVar);
						}
        }
    }
}
