Q: There are missing features in Add-on API, where can I report at?

A: Please use the ticket system to make the request feature. And do be aware of one manned programmer with mid-skilled of reverse engineering will take time. Along with other Add-ons, he has to develop support mainly for the role-playing. Although, he is now focusing on 0.x's version plan task.

Q: What if I found the location for the missing feature to be hook at?

A: Please do provide the information so we can make the missing event/feature more quicker instead of much longer delays or likely unable to provide the feature to you and others. We can use that information to verified it is at the correct location and gather the correct information for all PC game versions supportive.

A: Absolutely! This is one part of our goal to resolve the conflict of multiple third party required to listen for user's command.

Q: I want to override a command, is this possible?

A: Depending on the command that has registered with the command system. Some would allow to be overriden, some wouldn't permit. However, only one overriden command is permitted per command.

Q: I want to make an Add-on other than C/C++ language, is this possible?

A: As of Add-on API v4.0 and newer, it is now supported for C, C++, D, C#, and Visual Basic languages. If any of supported languages is not one of your language you want to use. Please verify your language has ability to compile into Windows dll module. Otherwise it is not compatible. If it, then please create a ticket. Or recreate Add-on API in your code language then make a pull request to include support. (You must verify each APIs are fully functional before we can merge your pull request.)'
