Structure:

- project/
    - src/
    - tsconfig.json
- wc3-mono/
    - pkgs/
        - wc3-base/
            - src/
                - Game.ts
            - package.json
        - wc3-types/
    - package.json

The package manager is Yarn 2 with PnP, and I have executed yarn link.
so package.json be like:

{
  "devDependencies": {
    "wc3-base": "workspace:^",
  },
  "resolutions": {
    "wc3-base": "portal:../wc3-mono/pkgs/wc3-base",
  }
}

To be able to use import { Game } from 'wc3-base/Game', I should write tsconfig.json as:

{
  "compilerOptions": {
    "baseUrl": "./src",
    "paths": {
      "wc3-base/*": ["../../wc3-mono/pkgs/wc3-base/src/*"]
    },
  },
}

This has made me a little uncomfortable.
Perhaps there is a more elegant solution.

And the import statement will be transpiled as require("wc3-mono.pkgs.wc3-base.src.Game") finally.
It makes me very upset. I expected that I would get a require("wc3-base.Game")

I spent a lot of time reading the source code of TSTL so that I could write a plugin to change the situation.
But I didn't succeed, so I'm looking for some help on where to start.
