I'm having trouble loading extensions containing items defined in a different extension. For example, I have a weapon in an extension called "Weapons," but when I try to use that weapon in a different extension called "Ships," Trans tells me it's an unknown design type. I think that Trans is loading the "Ships" extension first, because I can move my weapon to the "Ships" extension, load it, remove the weapon definition from "Ships" and then it runs fine. All well and dandy, but since I eventually plan on making this available to other people, I would like to not have to define items multiple times in different extensions. Am I missing something, or is there a workaround?

you can fix that by using modules under a main extension mod.

I thought modules only worked in an adventure extension, not a normal extension.
