The Microworld mod provides a simple playground for mod developers to test their changes. It replaces the standard world creation process with one which creates very trivial, very tiny worlds. The mod comes with two worlds to choose from: "mini_game" which mimics the start of a regular game and "harvest_test" which creates two workers, a stockpile, and some harvestable entities.

The mod should be installed in the "microworld" folder of your mods" directory. If you are using Git, you can simply run 'git clone https://github.com/radent/microworld.git' from inside your mods directory.
If you're downloading the zip file, make sure you rename the folder from "microworld-<branch>" to "microworld"!
To run Microworld, run stonehearth with the following options:
Stonehearth.exe --game.main_mod=microworld
You may optionally specify the flag:
--mods.microworld.world=<world> (default:mini_game)
To run one of the different worlds packed with the mod. If you leave off the world parameter, the mini_game world get be loaded.
You can also modify the user_settings.json file above the mods directory to set commonly used flags. For example, the following user_settings.json file will run the harvest_test game world every time you run Stonehearth:
{
