Bug Reports & Support / Re: Hostile incompatibility not informing players are mod author's rights?
« on: June 04, 2022, 11:47:59 AM »
Ok so it's an incompatibility but I don't see (in part because you didn't show) in what ways it was hostile. Maybe the mods had conflicts in their code or modified the same vanilla file, so Originem put the incompat there to stop weird bugs.
Regardless, let's just say it indeed is hostile. Even then, if I were you I'd go ask Originem first about why it's there, and inform him that this info is missing on his mod pages. But I don't see you trying that at all. Now you just made a post accusing the entire team behind the forum, and Starsector the game. you said and I quote
And interestingly enough you had just quoted the Twitter post of Alex saying that Originem is a legitimate reseller of the game keys. I don't think being a reseller implies any relationship or affiliation, etc. For example, you can find tons of Steam keys resellers online. Are these related to steam? And being legitimate just means that he doesn't just take your money and run away, that you actually can get a key from him. Like I could go ahead and buy 100 Starsector keys and resell them now, and what does that have to do with the Devs? Not too sure why you have worded it like this.
A third point. By now you'll be tired of reading the wall of text so I promise this will be the last point. On the Chinese forum, Originem had indeed listed fairyempire as incompatible with his mods, on the Apporolight mod page. If anything, I think he forgot to, or just didn't think it was necessary to, list the same here, because fairyempire does not seem to have a relevant English version at all. Use the search bar and you'll find almost nothing past ~2016. The one post here, https://fractalsoftworks.com/forum/index.php?topic=6155.0, is for 0.54. You'll recall that UNGP, Valk, Approlight, and FOB are all, at their current stage, maintained by Chinese modders (Originem, that is), their new versions first released in Chinese, and then translated and reposted onto the Fractal Softworks Forum. A search on Nexus Mods gives total emptiness. Which means, whoever trying to get the English version here, likely will never even get to play fairyempire together with Apporolight for themselves. So why the warning? If I were Originem I'd have omitted that as well. Plus, you seem to be able to read Chinese just fine, so why did you not mention the Chinese Apporolight mod page at all?
While I was writing this reply, it seems Originem has already added the (useful to no none) imcompat warning to the English UNGP post. Why take the extra mile and post it like this, instead of sending him a DM?...
You say you don't want the question to be treated with malicious intent. But as it stands I can't help but think you are the malicious one, either towards Originem or towards the Forum or towards the Game.

Due to the identity of the MODDER (Originem), it cannot be ruled out that this behavior is the behavior of fractalsoftworks staff until fractalsoftworks specifically explains the identity of the person concerned
