## Paths that are loaded by the base automatically (in load order):
|
|
- `lua/tfa/enums/` - Early enums initialization (only recommended for early global variables declaration)
|
|
- `lua/tfa/modules/` - Base modules (official modules are loaded first; custom modules loading is only kept for backwards compatibility and is unsupported!)
|
|
- `lua/tfa/external/` - External modules (code loaded in there is guaranteed to have `TFA` global variable initalized)
|
|
- `lua/tfa/att/` - Attachments (files with `base` in their name are loaded first)
|
|
### All paths (except attachments) support client and server-side separation by prepending `cl_` or `sv_` to the file name.
