api_game_methods.[ch] nullptr patch has not yet been made, so feel free to make this patch first.

#1399 is currently targeted to S3_3, related to my comment there that we might want to have lua api for regular specialists also in the older branch. This ticket is now targeted to S3_4. Which one we should change?

This patch would well go to S3_3 and editing API from #1399 may be left for S3_4. It's not much useful without superspecialists.

Made a patch that should apply to both. Let's make granular and single-target patches. This one only defines the class and makes find/name/id basics. I think we can then make a bit of API accessible for S3_3, just to auto-toggle the specialists that fall out of their reqs if the ruleset author wants so. Then #1399 will add API related to superspecialists.

Based over #1458.

Please use nullptr instead of NULL, especially in api_game_find.c that is already otherwise unified to nullptr.

nullptr can be used in code that is not going to branches older than S3_3. For patches that are going also to older branches, we still have to use NULL (or to make separate patch for newer branches)

Understood. Have you applied api_game_find patch to the repo?
