e.g. loader.exe -e target.exe -- -other -args -to -target

This would be slightly useful for @induktio's thinker mod which accepts a commandline flag for choosing smac or smacx mode.

Could you go into a little detail on how the injected dll reduces cpu use?

Hello,

Thanks for your work, at first i was very happy with the smac cpu fix because it very noticably reduce the cpu usage on my modern window 10 system.

But then i noticed when playing SMAX on that modern system that the AI was -noticably- taking more time to do anything (moving units, "thinking", etc...) during gameplay in comparison to when i was playing the game on my older potato computer that had window XP.

After testing around i found out that the reason is the smac cpu fix as if i play terranx.exe (and with the loader.exe and loader.dll deleted from the smax directory) the game AI play at the same fast speed as it was supposed to be.

But if i re-add loader.exe and loader.dll (and so launch the game with loader.exe -e terranx.exe as instructed, i observe again the AI being much slower.

Microsoft Defender ATP has recently begun to flag loader.exe as a potential instance of Trojan:Win32/Fuery.B!cl
