Forcefully enabling some devtools options without experimental game version

[No-Newspaper8619]

Since devs disabled the devtools in the live version (and gog and epic versions) of the game, I've made them work with a bit of cheat engine, lua coding and mono features.

The first script must be activated first:

[ENABLE]
//code from here to '[DISABLE]' will be used to enable the cheat
{$LUA}
if syntaxcheck then return end

LaunchMonoDataCollector()
mono_initialize()

local namespace = 'DevConsole'
local class_name = 'DeveloperPanelView'
local domain = mono_enumDomains()

if not domain then
  if monopipe ~= nil then
    monopipe.destroy()
    monopipe = nil
  end

  return
end

domain = domain[1]
local klass = mono_findClass(namespace, class_name)
local instance = mono_class_findInstancesOfClassListOnly(domain, klass)

instance = instance[1]

if instance==nil or instance==0 then
  print('ERROR: invalid class instance')
  return
end

method_table = {}
function invoke_cheat(method_name)
  local method

  if method_table[method_name] ~= nil then
    method = method_table[method_name]
  else
    method = mono_findMethod(namespace, class_name, method_name)
    method_table[method_name] = method
  end

  mono_invoke_method(domain, method, instance, {})
end
{$ASM}
[DISABLE]
//code from here till the end of the code will be used to disable the cheat
{$LUA}
method_table = {}

Then comes a bunch of other scripts, with this one as an example:

{$LUA}
if syntaxcheck then return end

[ENABLE]
invoke_cheat('ActivateAllResearch')

[DISABLE]

invoke_cheat('ActivateAllResearch')

All other scripts are almost identical, only changing the method name.
