A platform-specific launcher wrapper (a native shell embedding this engine,
owning its own UI around the game window) needs to pause the simulation
while its own UI is on top, live-reload options it wrote outside any Lua
UI, and veto main.lua's "closing the window returns to the Lua launcher"
behavior when it owns that job itself. Implementing this by hand-patching
main.lua's love.update/love.quit directly ties every such integration to
editing the one file every other engine change also touches, guaranteeing
merge conflicts. No existing hook covers "should the per-frame simulation
step run" or "should closing the window return to the Lua launcher."
Adds two generic, additive hooks (src/core/PlatformHooks.lua): core.update
and core.quit_to_launcher, replacing what would otherwise be inline
main.lua special-casing. Also adds Manifest.force_enable_env, letting a
mod that cannot function disabled on the one build where its env var is
set (a platform-bridge mod bundled only with that build) re-enable itself
regardless of a saved disable.
RFC 0006 status: Proposed.
Suite discovery, the extension-point catalog scan, mod test-dir pickup,
and the meta-coverage corpus all shelled out to ls/find/test -d, which do
not exist in cmd.exe. Every listing came back empty on Windows, so tiers
ran 0 suites and still reported ALL TESTS PASSED.
Add portable probes to tests/fs_io.lua (same Unix commands on
Linux/macOS; dir /b and a shell-free rename-self existence check on
Windows) and rewire the four call sites to them. 15/15 engine suites and
2/2 modkit suites now genuinely run and pass on Windows.
