Debug keys broken and can't update api_version

[phasic]

I just published my first mod here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1650880273

I was using some old code as reference and originally published it at api_version=3. I then added some code for debug keys

GLOBAL.CHEATS_ENABLED = true
GLOBAL.require( 'debugkeys' )

and the game started crashing a lot. I forgot I had made these changes before trying updating api_version=6. So the game kept crashing on api_version=6 and after I removed the debug keys code and presumably fixed the mod, the game continues to force disabling my mod even after force enabling in modsettings because it crashed earlier. All of these problems go away when I change api_version back to 3 and 5 (didn't check 4). No idea what's going on after hours of troubleshooting, which is silly for one of the simplest mods that can exist. I'm content now with my mod showing up as outdated due to api_version=5, but I'd like to eventually resolve this. Thanks for the help!
