is there a way you could facilitate creating custom thing types? e.g. an api
i would like to add the ability to register some other types of things in my mod.

also, github has a wiki tab you could use instead of a folder in the source root

I know there's a wiki tab, but it's easier for me to update the documentation as I code, in the same repository, vs trying to remember later, and failing because my memory is shit.

There's a way to register parsers for new thing types, but the timings of it may not work for other mods, I have to look into it properly. The API may not be fully complete, though, and I welcome people to try to use it and report any issues they find.

Well then
I'll try yo set it up and will come back with patches if it doesn't work.
