$20 (Deadline: Friday, June 7th) - Fix Bren's reload for multiplayer

This will be ran on a private server only, and not redistributed.
That is not a valid attempt to bypass a license

#

Especially since it's ARR

#

Unless SniffVillage has explicitly stated that this is okay

Feel free to correct that statement

Okay then

sweet drum
#

anyway

#

to go back to the point of the issue it sure needs some work to be ported to 1.20.6 due to the changes in networking

#

wait for what version do you want it ?

#

oh so you mean it just work in solo but it doesn't sync properly

#

yeah it's gonna be quite bad to try to debug and fix...

I managed to get it working on a server. I just want to be sure I wouldn't break any rules or whatever giving the code/jar to someone else

sweet drum
#

the solution probably isn't to remove the line, but to separate client and server 1st and then to adjust them to sync

#

yeah reloading works

echo quarry
#

I just moved a few lines of code from common to client to not crash servers

#

so it most likely isn't fixed

Yes, you can fork it, but that doesn't give you the right to do.. anything with it. So the narrative of not tinkering with such mods (respecting their licenses) still stands.

#

And sure, you can always argue that you're only doing it "for private use", but that wouldn't make a difference regardless of whether the mod has a Github repo or not

Usually content that is VSS is only there for educational purposes and the likes. You could fork it for "private use", but with how strict the guidelines for it are you're pretty much better off just looking through and doing your own thing IMO

#

You could, for example, create your own version of the mod that achieves the same goal, but in your own way. Recall the fact that you can't Copyright general ideas

#

And I don't mean to assume bad intentions

#

However, the Internet demands cautionary sense

#

So me personally, if I was asked to work on an ARR mod without explicit permission from the original author, I'd just create my own version instead

Anyway

#

It might be wise to PM Sniffvillage or add them as a pr reviewer to actually get it to merge, they also need to enable github actions for it to build
