Support for Modders

I think about that Modders can add new Types for Technology Unlock or Items creating. And that we can add to the Vanilla Items Wire support etc.
Coding is awesome!
Animes are love!

There is actualy a subforum where modders can make requests for these things.

The issue with just saying "Let modders be able to define their own things" is that there's likely a reason why modders can't just define new things... The main reason is time and effort. It's easier just to add in a few extra hooks when they're requested. Also, where do you start to program a system for modders to dynamically create new things?

The game is already quite modder friendly.
