Definition Extension API

API mod to add a custom Tag to any SBC file. Definitions can then be loaded by any mod using DefinitionExtensionsAPI.cs (included in this mod) and adding this mod as a dependency.

Block mods do not need to add this mod as a dependency, just have a text file named DefinitionExtensions.txt in the root of the Data directory listing every sbc or xml file that contains definition extensions.

Supported definitions: CubeBlock Components PhysicalItems PlanetGeneratorDefinitions EnvironmentDefinition

Example tag and tag types below: Multiple tags of the same type are supported, tags with the same "Name" and type will override each other, mods can mod other mod's tags, mod load order determines what is precedent.

Mod now also supports custom gamelogic loading. This still is in the experimental stage, so please report any issues on my discord. Format is below. Mods can register a gamelogic component to the name and it will be loaded for any block that includes the SBC tag with the same name.

API also provides an easy method for deploying terminal controls with your MyTSSCommon script! See the API files for details or ask on my discord or in the Keen discord in #modding-programming.

Mods looking to implement this mod and read the assigned values via script can copy Steam\steamapps\workshop\content\244850\2756894170\Data\Scripts\DefinitionExtensions\DefinitionExtensionsAPI.cs into their mod.
