Problem:

SSCSM is still not implemented, after years.

Suggestion / plan:

First, implement a SSCSM that has just client-provided (checksumed, to avoid cheating) builtin (SSCSMCPB).

=> We can postpone sandboxing, because code is not untrusted.

Benefits:

  • API is very unstable and incomplete at first anyways, so mods shouldn't really use it right away anyways.
  • Having SSCSMCPB means we can implement hardcoded engine features in lua. => This automatically generates API features.
  • It makes implementing new features easier, and more future-proof. I.e. for a new feature, implement SSCSM API, and a packet for the SSCSMCPB so that you can already use it in SSM.
  • We have something working, and can take time for the sandboxing, now with motivation, because there's immediate benefit.
