Notes:
1. Please post in the thread below if you have any questions about installing .dll mods into your game.
2. Please note, some .dll mods are not made in a fashion that is compatible with the use of other .dll mods that overwrite the same Humankind game .dll. If you install a mod that was not made to be compatible with the BepInEx system, it could overwrite the entire game .dll, which will remove all other mods that modify that .dll.
