This repository hosts schemas used to validate XML files for the game RimWorld.

It's intended to be used when creating mods for RimWorld.

1. Setup your IDE, editor, terminal, whatever... to reference the catalog files catalog.xml in this repository.
   (If someone know how to reference a GitHub URL as a catalog in Visual Studio Code, please let me know.)
2. Add the corresponding namespace (xmlns) to the XML node you want to validate.

You can contribute to this project by submitting a pull request.
Please ensure that your pull request follows the guidelines listed below.

1. Schema files should use the .xsd extension:
   To keep things consistent, all schema files should use the .xsd extension.
2. One schema per file:
   Each schema should be in its own file. The filename should match the schema name.
3. One node per schema:
   Each schema should validate one node. The node name should match the schema name.
4. One namespace per schema:
   Each schema should have its own namespace. The namespace should match the schema name.
5. Schema namespaces should be prefixed with rimworld.schemas:
   This is to avoid conflicts with other schemas.
6. Schema files should be placed in the schemas directory:
   This is to avoid cluttering the root directory.
7. Schema files should be added to the catalog.xml file:
   This is to ensure that the schema files are included in the catalog.
8. Keep the catalog file sorted alphabetically:
   This is to make it easier to find a specific schema.
