@SimGuruModSquad: Is a default replacement for an object XML required for custom interactions?

Well, it's at least kind of reassuring to hear that this is an *actual* limitation =). (Was a bit worried that we might all be stuck in TS3 thinking patterns and overlooking the obvious).

Anything that allows just one mod is .. not a solution, really (except maybe for people who only mod their own game for themselves) -- but can you perhaps recommend a way to append to that list, or to the affordance lists within objects, by scripting? To me that seemed like the most promising approach, see here.

?

That would also mean those mods have a much better chance at surviving the next patch .. wouldn't they?


Edit, in case this helps (to see why everybody thinks this is a problem), here's a list with threads that all discuss that same issue:
