| description | FARSPACE original IP policy for content creation — what is allowed, what is forbidden, and how to invent original names and flavour text |
FARSPACE uses entirely original content. The policy exists to avoid copyright and trademark issues with published 4X titles.
Never copy or closely paraphrase from:
"Closely paraphrase" means: changing one word, translating to a synonym, or using the same flavour concept with a different skin.
All of the following must be invented:
Factions: Greek/Latin roots, invented prefixes, evocative concepts (e.g. "Valdhari Collective", "Serentine Accord"). Avoid real-world nation names.
Ships: Material + role pattern (e.g. "Obsidian-class Frigate"), abstract concepts, or invented words. Avoid "Destroyer", "Cruiser" preceded by proper names from known titles.
Technologies: Process or concept names (e.g. "Void Lattice Drive", "Fractal Synthesis"). Avoid copying the tech-tree structure directly from any title.
Planet traits: Descriptive geology/ecology (e.g. "Crystalline Mantle", "Sulphur Bloom"). Avoid direct copies of Stellaris or MoO trait names.
Invent something new rather than risk a near-copy. Originality is preferable to accuracy relative to any existing title.
