v4.5 — Panel removal

  • Removed standalone CanvasLayer panel and on_tick polling (Callable bridge crash)
  • All functionality now via console commands only (press ~ to open)

v4.0 — Zero-overhead rewrite

Architecture

  • REMOVED on_player_input — eliminates per-frame pcall/GC memory pressure
  • All functionality via console commands and automatic lifecycle hooks
  • Lifecycle callback tracker shows exact init order and timing

All Lifecycle Callbacks

  • New sections: player_messages, link_controller, acquired_techs
  • File write via ModFileSystem + log fallback
  • Auto-export on day end (configurable)

API Test Suite

  • Tests all control modules: networkctl, routectl, firewallctl, vlanctl, dhcpctl, filesysctl, packetctl
  • Tests GameWorld methods, Programs API, Merchants API
  • NETWORK_STORAGE (class 20) device support

Console Commands

  • reinspect_all_users() — re-inspect tracked users
  • export_to_json() — export full game state
  • run_api_test_suite() — test all API endpoints
