I explored lua scripts in the game that uses Fox Engine and saw that engine functions are called from there. For example "Fox.GetPlatformName()" , "Fox.SetActMode( "EDIT" )" or "Fox.Log("Gr shader initialized.")".
So are there possible ways to get a list of the engine functions available? Maybe tracing of known functions will help to trace any other? I'm not a senior programmer, but maybe someone have any ideas?

Re: Getting a list of the game engine functions
If you have access to the Lua state, you can dump the entire global space. Everything normally exposed to Lua will be placed into _G in some manner which you can find examples of dumping to file online. In your examples there, you'd probably find the Fox related stuff in the _G.Fox table.
