Engine executable. Settings and tools of the game program (CivilizationVI.exe), usable without a mod. Mostly undocumented debug and configuration functionality; descriptions come from analysis of the executable and have not all been tried in the running game.

TextControl

ForgeUI control type (ForgeUI::TextControl). 19 methods, called on an instance with a colon: Controls.SomeName:Method(...).

C++ base classes (from the exe RTTI, see engine classes): ForgeUI::ControlBase. Whether the Lua type also exposes the base class methods was not checked; the methods below are those registered on this type itself.
