Frances Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 okay so the question is how do we get goon to give us their code woo ideas go
jackfractal Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 Yeah, Goon is pretty solid on the not-giving-away-their-code front. Even goofchem, which sort of copies their chemistry system, is a rewrite from scratch.
Frances Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 can we actually get some ideas going on on how to get goon to give us their code tho
monkeysfist101 Posted September 17, 2015 Posted September 17, 2015 We kidnap their beards and ransom them off.
Japak121 Posted September 18, 2015 Posted September 18, 2015 Has anyone actually tried asking them? They made it pretty clear they won't give out whole sections, BUT they've also said they are willing to give out bits and pieces to other servers who ask. Maybe don't have for the entire genetics code, but ask for certain smaller bits that you could put together to form our own version? They undoubtedly don't want to give out anything that has 'secret's, but they may give us the standard genetics stuff they have and we could build from there? At that point you'd just have to go there...play genetics for awhile... and code in what you notice.
Killerhurtz Posted September 28, 2015 Posted September 28, 2015 The question, for me, is how much we want to respect Goon's decisions. I'm a crafty/shifty person - I am 99% certain that I could find a way to obtain Gooncode without either them knowing, or them needing to interact with us (I already got a few ideas). That would most definitely violate their decision/right to preserve their code, though, and it might create some bad blood between the servers if discovered.

That would also my own code of stealing closed source code without permission. The two options I can see you having here would be to get them to give permission for it or recreate it.
Killerhurtz Posted September 29, 2015 Posted September 29, 2015 I figured as much. Something will be figured out eventually. (PS: While I was willing to do it, I'm still glad our head dev's got that much integrity)
