Syntax
(successful:0/1) InjectUIComponent componentPath:string component:formattedString formatVars(up to 20)
Example
InjectUIComponent "HUDMainMenu" "<_Var1>%g</_Var1> <text name=%qTestText%q> <_Var2> <copy src=%qparent()%q trait=%q_Var1%q/> </_Var2> </text>" intVar

Notes
- component supports format specifiers, and up to 20 variables may be used.
- The new components are injected directly into the game's memory - no files on disk are modified (or even accessed).
- Once injected, all UI functions can be used on the new components.
- Most menus are loaded in memory only while open, and are unloaded when closed. This means:
- New components will be injected successfully only if the target menu is currently loaded.
- New components must be re-injected every time the target menu is re-loaded. The only exceptions are the following menus, which are always loaded (and are never re-loaded): HUDMainMenu, InventoryMenu, MapMenu, RepairMenu, StatsMenu, ItemModMenu.
