Description
What is this? and Why?
This is a common library package that must be subscribed to in order to properly use add-ons created by Manacat.

Previously, every each addons i made contained the common script parts. but, as the number of addons increased, it became difficult and occur issues to manage by updating every addons whenever the common script was modified, so i separate the common part like this.

Notes
This library aims to maximize the performance assurance of products made by Manacat. And among them are our Extended Stuffs Skin Packs. Even if you don't use our skin packs anything, this library randomly sets item skins for skin pack users who might join your lobby, and handles some of the functionality related to item acquisition. As such, it may conflict with other scripting functions, and if a conflict is found, I will try to resolve it by primarily, but if it can't, I will do nothing unfortunately. So if you reach mods conflict deadlock, you may need to consider giving up on one side.

Is it just me, or all of your Local Server Support Tools add-ons (including your Common Library) doesn't work for me?

I'm just wondering, because I think I deleted all of the add-on files in the ems files. I think.

I guess there isn't any reason for conflict. (but not sure because I don't use left 4 bots)

"I'm emailing Gaben" 🤣🤣

Anyway, pardon me for the possibly dumb question, but I'd like to ask if this is compatible with the "Left 4 Bots 2" mod, or should I expect some conflict between the two?

To be honest, I don't know much about how script mods work, but I'm trying to keep everything conflict-free on my end :)

LoL It's clear you don't even know what you're talking about. you're complaining hastily without even knowing what you know or don't know. Please emailing to Gaben as you want. But probably one or two letters won't be enough. Because Gaben surely won't want to explain to you what steam official servers are.

why is this showing up in my games on official steam servers? are other addons advertising this? seems like malware at this point, I'm emailing gaben

For some reason the expressions of survivors don't move in cutscenes... and the reason was this script.. any idea what is causing this?

It's a pity, but I value providing a wider range of performance to those who use my stuff more than to those who don't. My goal is to provide broad guarantees on rng features, so I will not be isolating rng to reduce its operating environment.

I second the suggestion of making rng skins as separate, having a requirement for all your addons with that as mandatory even for non rng skin users is very upsetting
