Description

Recoil Engine's lua script uses VFS.Include as require, I want use "runtime.special": {"VFS.Include":"require"}, but VFS.Include uses path with suffix (e,g, VFS.Include("LuaRules/Configs/modCommandsDefs.lua")) which currently not supported by luals.
Can you make it possible? let require detection accepts lua path with .lua suffix

Research direction

Start by locating the runtime.special require-detection entry point and the handling of VFS.Include mappings. Reproduce the configuration with a path such as LuaRules/Configs/modCommandsDefs.lua, then verify that require detection accepts the .lua suffix without breaking unsuffixed paths.
