IIRC, Severance looks like it's 90% written in python :-)
(the bladex engine looks like it's been wrapped up as a DLL, I wonder if they
used SWIG? ;-)

Anyway, take a look in the scripts and lib folders of the games install and
you'll find lots of python you can play with. I believe there's even one called
cheats.py...

happy hunting,

Chris
