SS14 Porting And Licensing
Before Porting
- Identify source repository, commit, original author, and license.
- Check whether code/assets are MIT, AGPL, MPL, CC-BY-SA, CC-BY-NC-SA, or another license.
- Do not import incompatible assets or hidden-source-incompatible code.
- Preserve attribution in metadata, comments, or license files as appropriate.
Fork Isolation
- Put new SS14-ART-CORE code/assets under
_Art.
- Namespace serialized types and prototype IDs with a SS14-ART-CORE prefix.
- Avoid changing upstream files. If required, use tight
Art-Edit markers.
- Preserve path similarity under
_Art so upstream equivalents are easy to compare.
Database Porting
- Avoid modifying upstream tables.
- Prefer one-to-one fork-owned tables for SS14-ART-CORE-only data.
- Namespace migrations.
- Test SQLite and Postgres paths when persistence changes.
