The way ddlc detects processes is by process name (obs32.exe, monikai.exe...). The shimeji pack is a jar, so its run by java and shows up as java.exe. For us to detect shimejis, we would need another way to do that. We can look into it, but its low priority.

what is @subnatica talking about?

Disregard him, he was about to derail this issue so I os.removed his comment.

Shimejis all run off of Java.exe. Because of this, the idea (although a brilliant one) seems like a real pain in the ass to make happen. I don't know a lot about Python or Java, but I wonder if it'd be possible to have MAS try and identify the Java Scripts currently running on the user's computer? That might be a way to identify it, but I don't know if that's how Shimejis work. Even that would be difficult. I'm not even sure if Shimejis work like that, and even if they did, I doubt they'd have series/character specific names for the actual process (Or script, Idk how Java works). If I remember correctly, all Shimejis are just identified by Java as "Shimeji" in Japanese or something like that. So even if there could be a kind of function to search for Java Scripts currently running, the "Same name" problem still persists. And I'm not even sure if Python could be made to do this, and even if it could, I imagine that'd take a hell of a lot of Programming. And then there's the question of whether or not it would be too intrusive, due to how many things rely on Java and how much Java runs (I think, I'm not sure if Java works like that). Take what I said here with a great of salt though, because as I said I know absolutely nothing about Java, Python, or coding in general.
