Hi there,
I have t-engine4 and ToME installed system wide on Linux in /usr/share/games/t-engine4
I know that to install an addon I should add it in /usr/share/games/t-engine4/game/addons, but I would like to have the possibility to let a normal user (and not root) handle the addons, and therefore be able to place addons in the user directory in ~/.t-engine/4.0
I've tried to place the Ashes of Urh'Rok addon in ~/.t-engine/4.0/game/addons, but it doesn't seem to work, so unless I'm guessing the path wrong, I guess t-engine does not support loading addons from the user directory.
I've had a quick look at the source code but could not find an easy way to add the user path to the virtual filesystem (mostly because I don't speak lua that well yet).
I'd like to patch this for Mageia's package, so that I can also advertise the new addon in the description and give installation instructions to the users (without having to ask them to put files in /usr which is not meant to be fiddle with by end users).

Currently working on Elementals. It's a big project, so any help would be appreciated.
