"My colonist levels up and then almost instantly down again!"
This is caused by a feature in vanilla RimWorld known as skill decay. Skills at lvl 10 and higher lose xp. If xp goes low enough, the skill levels down. The rate of skill decay increases with every level - It is slow at lvl 10, and fast at lvl 20.
This can lead to two problems:

- A colonist on level 10 or higher in a skill she almost never uses will lead to that skill almost always ending up at the very top of lvl 9, because skill decay stops as soon as a skill goes below lvl 10. This means that only a tiny bit of xp is needed to level her up to lvl 10 again, which then goes down to 9 again, and so on.

- A colonist with a high level skill she uses almost all the time will likewise lead to that skill jumping up and down between e.g. lvl 19 and 20.

Level Up! has a cooldown between notifications to make this feel less irritating, but it does not in any way prevent or slow down skill decay.

And found it. Noticed in my config files had another mod that was using the mod settings class "LevelUp.Settings", so tried disabling that one and now this one shows up. It's the Level This! mod, which weirdly enough, I was using together with this no problem in 1.4. So no idea why things stopped working :/

Okay, definitely a mod conflict. Doing that generated the config file and I could access the mod options in game now, when I reloaded the previous mod list, the options no longer show, even though the game shows the mod as loaded. Weird. Now the fun part of trying to figure out *which* mod is doing it

And if you remove all other mods, and only start with Level Up and Harmony? Just to ensure there isnt a conflict with some other mod

Yup, that's correct. Weird issue to be having, I haven't seen it happen on any other mods I'm using, even others I've only just installed. Probably just my PC being weird, nothing to do with the mod itself, given no one else seems to be having that issue of the config not generating >.<

I'm not aware of any issues. When you say you cannot access the config in game, you mean Level Up options doesn't show in the mod options?

Is there any known reason why the mod config file would refuse to generate? Have tried unsubbing and resubbing to Steam multiple times, tried downloading from Github and using it as a local mod instead (while unsubbed from Steam), made sure to delete the old config that I copied over from my old HDD when I was still on 1.4. But every time I launch the game, it still doesn't generate the config file, nor can I access the mod options in game. But the game does say the mod is loaded, which is just weird
