[Closed] Map Editor entities-tab doesn't fire onMined/Death/ etc, please have it fire something

The entities-tab in the map editor doesn't seem to fire any of the on_mined() / on_died() functions or anything when removing entities.

Please update the map editor to fire some kind of event when entities are removed, so mods can detect this and delete their hidden entities / etc as appropriate. I'd personally be okay if it was even an entirely new callback.

I did some testing and using LuaBootstrap.register_on_entity_destroyed() has worked for my situation.
