SirNukes Mod Support APIs

Description
Collection of APIs for modding support. Components include: Lua Loader API, Time API, Named Pipes API, Hotkey API, Interact Menu API, Simple Menu API.

This extension does nothing on its own, but other mods may depend on it.

Note: the hotkey api requires an external python program which listens to keyboard input while "X4" is the active window. This program is not included in this extension, and must be downloaded elsewhere (provided as standalone exe or runnable python code):
https://github.com/bvbohnen/x4-projects/releases

Named pipes and hotkeys are only supported on Windows currently.

Ok, i found a fix for the disappearing station building menu:
LAND from the SWI community gave me a tip that older station blueprints from around the time when Venture modules could still be built caused that same error in earlier API versions aswell. I deleted all my station blueprints and that did finally fix it! It's working with 1.94 now!

This mod deactivates the station building menu, i was able to trace it back to this mod.

for some reason, was unable to plan station builds, on my old save & news save, tried to desactivate every mods it works again , activating them one by one, i found that desativate this mod and i can plan station build again (the station build ui wasn't starting) .

How do you get the integrated hotkeys to work? I don't see an option to follow target.

For some reason, I am unable to plan station builds. The station build screen just doesn't open.

My issue has gone away, I made no changes to my modlist whatsoever. Please disregard my prior comment

Anyone else having trouble with the settings section being disabled entirely when protection mode is turned off? I can't tell if its because of this mod

You are not able to use the Community Edition AND this original API mod together. Essentially they do the same thing.
Since Sirnukes has returned and is updating the extension there should be no need to use the Community Edition going forward. It was truly just a band-aid until the developer was able to return.

So if you are trying to use this version, regardless of current bugs, unsubscribe from the community edition and only subscribe to this extension.
