Clarify Please!

[flint bough]

So i have this muti player server i want to use axiom on. and one day it will be a public minecraft gameing server im not selling any builds just making them for my own server. would that still be considerd a Commurial use. becuase i wouldnt be making any money off of axiom itself.

[brittle dagger]

If you make money from the server that uses the build its commercial

[flint bough]

so i would have to get a Commercial License. /25$/month?/server.

[neon summit]

only if you or the server monetizes their builds

[flint bough]

But i wont be making money from the builds. here's a situation like lets say i have ranks for sale on my public server nothing at all to do with building or axiom at all. would i still have to get a commercial license. im not selling the builds or anything i do with axiom. axiom will only just be on that server. not making money from it.

[neon summit]

ranks and sales would make money for the server > commercial use > server needs to organize commercial licenses for their players

[flint bough]

So i would still need a License for this?

[neon summit]

if the server sells ranks, yes
but the server should do this for you
does the server even support axiom?

Is axiom installed on their end?

[flint bough]

its my server i haven't added it because i want to make sure if i truly want it or not first that's why I'm asking these questions.

[neon summit]

as long as you are not selling ranks or earning money in other ways with axiom you are fine

[flint bough]

im not selling ranks or anything with axiom axiom might just be a plugin for OPs that build. im not making any profit off of the builds.

[flint bough]

so this brings another question i have if i got a license for axiom and added the plugin and did some builds and edits with it and removed the plugin would what changed stayed? and if so then would it be wrong to get the license for it build and then before i go public remove it? I'm just wanting to clarify because i do think its an amazing thing i just want to see what's right and wrong here.

[neon summit]

after removing the plugin/mod everything you have build before persists bc axiom just simplifies vanilla mechanics
getting the license and canceling the subscription on launch is fine iirc

you should get the license first if you intent to earn money through the server tho

[flint bough]

i do plan on it but it would be alright to buy it use axiom then cancel before launch?

[neon summit]

yes, as I said
iirc

[flint bough]

Okay well one is axiom a mod and is there a plugin? or is it just a mod?

Paper Plugin

The Paper Pugin can be downloaded on the Axiom Paper Plugin Modrinth Page.
Ensure that you have the right version of the plugin to match with the protocol version of the mod (Mentioned in the changelog). Preferably you should always be on the latest versions.

[flint bough]

is there another plugin i need to get it to work?

[neon summit]

no

[flint bough]

becuase i tried adding it to a privet build server but its not working?

[neon summit]

run /whynoaxiom
dou you have permission plugins?

[flint bough]

yes

also its not showing that as a command

[neon summit]

then its not installed correctly

is it a paper server?

or spigot/bukkit?

[flint bough]

paper

[neon summit]

you need to have it on your client as well btw

[flint bough]

oh?

[neon summit]

the fabric version for the client
paper version for the server

[flint bough]

so if i use modrinth just add it to it?

[neon summit]

yes it should automatically install fabricApi with it this way

[flint bough]

ok so i added axiom to my minecraft itself and the plugin to the server. so it should work?

[neon summit]

yes

with permission plugin you might need to add the axiom.* permission
dunno the exact wording

[flint bough]

mm alrighty

ill see what i can do.

[plush roost]

Yes, if the server is monetised by selling ranks you need a license to use Axiom

You get a trial that lasts 30 days when you install it, so you only need to look into it after you get the notification

[neon summit]

tried to simplify

[plush roost]

Oh okay maybe I misunderstood

Yes you can remove Axiom once you're done with it

[neon summit]

doesn't matter
removing axiom wont affect your world files that's the point @flint bough

[flint bough]

Thanks I have a better understanding of what I needed I’m going to see how it goes with me and my build team and I’ll see about after that

[flint bough]

Also wonderful job.

[plush roost]

Than you, hopefully it's useful in your project

[glad burrow]

I thought I'd ask here instead of creating a new topic since this is pretty recent, does showing axiom builds that are on a server on YouTube count as commercial use? Even if the video isn't monetised?
