allow fabric api

i just tried installing No Chat Restrictions through prism, which depends on fabric api, so prism automatically installed fabric api for me as well. but fabric api wasnt allowed, resulting in a pretty confusing error

now it doesnt seem to crash without fabric api, as a guess because needed fapi libraries are bundled by other mods? but its still confusing and other mods whitelisted in the future are likely to need it anyway

no?
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
it's explicitly disallowed per speedrun.com rules
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
yeah draftout itself bundles necessary fapi libraries

(because an allowed mod requires it)

is there a reason why orrr?
noura 🜛

it modifies too much vanilla code, and mcsr wants to be as close to vanilla as possible
noura 🜛

so players use speedrunAPI instead

ahh ic
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
it works with draftout
noura 🜛

the only issue is that prism can't detect that
Pythoria

huh?
noura 🜛

did you read the second paragraph of the post

i js dont get it
noura 🜛

the draftout mod comes with parts of fapi in it
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
so it can run mods that depend on those parts
Pythoria

and this needs part of it that isnt in draftout?
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
no
noura 🜛
noura 🜛last month
the no chat restrictions mod works fine with draftout
noura 🜛

oh so the mod doesnt need fapi because its in draftout already but prism doesnt know that so adds it but having the fapi mod in the library doesnt work

but does it work with draftout 🤔

huh really

prism launcher doesn't have a way to know that draftout bundles fapi modules, so when installing no chat restrictions through it, it installs fapi as well, even though it's a disallowed mod
Pythoria

okay yeah
Pythoria
Pythorialast month
i get it

i thought it doesn't modify any code at all, just provides functionality for other mods
Pythoria

im just a wee lil gal

plenty of the modules need to mixin to implement their functionality

idk there's not much to do here

allowing/requiring fabric api as a separate mod would introduce more problems

i guess ppl just have to download it seperately and input it (like me aga)
