ModKit: Add Game Action Hooks for ModKit use #21772

Open thetestgame opened 3 years ago

This is something several members of the modding community have requested and implemented in their own ways. Usually through 3rd party modding apis for Eco. Having a native interface for sending/receiving game actions on the server with an optional deny option for blocking actions outright would be the ideal way of going about this

A straight forward implementation would be to add callbacks to GameActionManager before and after processing inside TryPerformActions (eg PrePerformActions, PostPerformActions)

Also note it looks like there is something similar with ActionUtil that uses IGameActionAware though that is only a notification and happens after everything in the game action pack has been processed.
