[KV] In-Game Definition Editor
Press [ left bracket (default) to open the window.
A Definition (Def) is what defines almost everything in RimWorld.
Defs that can be edited currently:
-Apparel
-Backstories
-Biomes
-Difficulty
-Hediffs
-Indigestible
-Projectiles
-Recipes (aka bills)
-Story Tellers
-Thoughts
-Traits
-Weapons
This mod will continue to be updated as new definition types are added.
Can be added to and removed from existing saves.
Please let me know if you run into any issues.

Things to be aware of
Traits
Traits are structured in a tiered system. What this means is not all Traits will be initially visible and you’ll have to find the parent Trait-type, select it, then scroll to the child trait.
For instance move speed:
SpeedOffset is the parent TraitDef
slowpoke, fast walker, and jogger are the Traits assigned to pawns
Recipes
When editing a recipe there are a wide range of items that can be selected as "Allowed Defs". Not all will work in all cases though. If editing the club recipe and "Cat" is added as an ingredient, a pawn will use a "Cat" as an ingredient but that will cause an endless number of exceptions because "Cats" are not a compatible ingredient. (as this mod grows it might be possible to label a Cat as a "Stuff" so I am currently not going to change it)
Other notes
-Currently when adding Defs to ingredients the list is very long. I would like to explore ways to make adding defs quicker by adding a search field.
-Do not use both this and Change Equipment Stats together. I highly recommend using this mod over the other as this will continue to be supported and allows editing of more fields.
-This is a powerful mod and disabling the wrong def here or there could cause the game to not work correctly
