I can suggest it to the team but as its such a base interface we hadn't planned on altering it any time soon.

No-- I'm looking for something different. IVEngineServer::ServerCommand() places the command at the _end_ of of the command buffer. I need the same function that the 'exec' command would use to place a command at the _beginning_ of the command buffer. Without an InsertAtFront or something similar, in-line variable expansion is not possible (without lots of command ordering issues). Thanks a lot for considering my request-- it's quite important to the community using the EventScripts plugin, and will likely come in handy for mods down the road.
