🧵#license confusion

Happy to clarify and adjust as needed.

The idea is simple but putting it into words isn't: for non-commercial work and if you're entitled to Unity Free this is free For everything else or if you're not entitled to Unity Free you'll need an AssetStore license

Also, similar to many Needle packages this is "additive by design" - nothing breaks if at any point someone removes it from a project. E.g. if you want to fully open source your project you can totally use SG Markdown to create the shaders etc, but not re-publish the package itself.

Would there be something I can change in the license to make the above more clear? We're planning on releasing most things on this kind of "trust" model, so defining it better is good

Ah right, I remember... the issue was that ironically AssetStore doesn't understand this concept of "it's the same license style as Unity Free/Pro" and had an issue with a license that's not the AssetStore license 🙃 I'll see if I can distribute with separate licenses

Also, we're working on other options to support development. Shouldn't change how existing things can be used though
