As the title suggests, this adds support for auto-hotswapping.
The way I made it is so that, at a five second interval, for all the assemblies in the
HotSwapMain.AssemblyFilesdictionary, look for files named [PathToAssembly.dll].hotswap. If such a file exists, delete it, and then callHotSwapMain.ScheduleHotSwap(). This lets you easily add a step to your build script to create such a file after having built, thus saving you from even having to go into RimWorld and hit Home or click the hotswap button. Here's a small demo of it in action:I also added a settings dialog to turn the feature on or off. (It is off by default)
I have not updated the dlls because I don't think it's sensible to rely on external contributors providing safe ones in PRs.
