only-stats should never create visual gears. and lua should never rely on visual gears being created. critical is just to help ensure ones important to gameplay don't get lost in fast-forward


#TESTING TIME
include(CheckCCompilerFlag)
#when you need to check for a linker flag, just leave the argument of "check_c_compiler_flag" empty

# CMAKE_C{XX}_FLAGS is for compiler flags (c and c++)
# CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS is for linker flags (also add them to pascal_flags and haskell_flags)
# CMAKE_SHARED_LIBRARY_<lang>_FLAGS same but for shared libraries

#TODO: should there be two different checks for C and CXX?
#TODO: can the various if(platform) be avoided in some way?
