KCSE_PLUGIN_INFO("MyPlugin", "Author", 1);

KCSE_PLUGIN_LOAD(kcse)
{
    kcse->GetMessagingInterface()->RegisterListener([](KCSE::Message* msg) {
        if (msg->type == KCSE::IMessagingInterface::kMessage_DataLoaded) {
            // Game data loaded

Notes

• KCSE auto-calls KCSE::Init() when using the KCSE_PLUGIN_LOAD macro.
• Available lifecycle messages: PreDataLoaded (before main.lua / mod init scripts — publish Lua globals here), DataLoaded, LoadGame, SaveGame, NewGame, AllPluginsLoaded.
• Per-frame tasks via KCSE::GetTaskInterface()->AddTask(fn).
• Trampoline hooking via KCSE::GetTrampoline().
