Because I intend to update this mod more often, and dont want quality control out of my hands. This is one of the simplest mods on the workshop, conflicts are going to be rare.

Stall risks

None found

No file I/O on hot paths, no timers created per event, no per-player-per-frame hooks.

Compatibility

Chain-safe

Every server-visible override preserves its chain.

Structural footprint 1.1

clean

No server script overrides, so nothing to rank.

No server-side script overrides. Counts hook dispatch and timers only, not what the hooks do inside. Methodology.

What this report can tell you

Which vanilla methods the mod hooks, which of them drop the chain, how often each hook fires, and which risky calls sit inside hot hooks.

What it cannot

How long hook bodies take, network cost, or engine-side load. Measured across live fleets, most server lag comes from the engine and world state, not mod script chains — a light footprint does not clear a mod of lag, and a heavy one does not convict it. Methodology.

Everything else

Load-order constraints (CfgPatches)

What each PBO declares: its addon identity and the addons it requires to be loaded first (requiredAddons). A partial load-order signal from the mod's own metadata.
