2020-06-13 00:36:45 +02:00
(3-clause) license. You can find the license as
< a class = "reference external" href = "https://github.com/evennia/evennia/blob/master/LICENSE.txt" > LICENSE.txt< / a > in the Evennia
repository’ s root.< / p >
< p > < strong > Q: When creating a game using Evennia, what does the license permit me to do with it?< / strong > < / p >
< p > < strong > A:< / strong > It’ s your own game world to do with as you please! Keep it to yourself or re-distribute it
under another license of your choice - or sell it and become filthy rich for all we care.< / p >
< p > < strong > Q: I have modified the Evennia library itself, what does the license say about that?< / strong > < / p >
< p > < strong > A:< / strong > Our license allows you to do whatever you want with your modified Evennia, including
re-distributing or selling it, as long as you include our license and copyright info found in
< code class = "docutils literal notranslate" > < span class = "pre" > LICENSE.txt< / span > < / code > along with your distribution.< / p >
< p > … Of course, if you fix bugs or add some new snazzy feature we < em > softly nudge< / em > you to make those
changes available so they can be added to the core Evennia package for everyone’ s benefit. The
license doesn’ t < em > require< / em > you to do it, but that doesn’ t mean we won’ t still greatly appreciate it
if you do!< / p >
< p > < strong > Q: Can I re-distribute the Evennia server package along with my custom game implementation?< / strong > < / p >
< p > < strong > A:< / strong > Sure. As long as the text in < code class = "docutils literal notranslate" > < span class = "pre" > LICENSE.txt< / span > < / code > is included.< / p >
< p > < strong > Q: What about Contributions?< / strong > < / p >
< p > The contributions in < code class = "docutils literal notranslate" > < span class = "pre" > evennia/evennia/contrib< / span > < / code > are considered to be released under the same license
as Evennia itself, unless the individual contributor has specifically defined otherwise.< / p >
