hi @nyabinary , made some progress on this today. thing is I have no idea what rimworld is so you'll have to help me determine what breaks.

Right now the app builds and the gui pops up... but does it do anything what it's supposed to? probably not

My draft pr is here: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/304943

You should be able to run it in its current state with nix run github:vinnymeller/nixpkgs\?ref=init-rimsort#rimsort

@vinnymeller To clarify, Rimworld is a video game and this is a separate mod manager application for said game. You're intended to point it to all relevant game/mod/config directories and it allows you to sort your modlist (mod order affects performance, game ui for this is not great) as well as launch the game directly from the app.

I'll give your pr a test later today and report back.

Well I ran it, and it's almost working. Autodetect for relevant directories worked fine and it sees my installed mods but it's complaining it cant find the linux executable.

"RimWorldLinux" being the name of the executable, which is present in that dir and can be used to launch the game.

you're saying the file is there but rimsort says its not?

i.e running ls /home/dan/.local/share/Steam/steamapps/common/RimWorld says RimWorldLinux ?

[FERNANDOHYDE]

That is correct. I can even double click it to launch the game with steam.

Worked with Gog version installed through heroic. I had to update the game path to RimWorld/Game
