Source code of the Project Factory Skyline

[cepheidqq]

Hi everyone,
I just upload my source code of this mod. You can download it at: https://github.com/cepheidqq/FactorySkyline/blob/main/FactorySkylineSourceCode.zip

I know it does not work in the lastest version of the Satisfactory. But I think it will be helpful to other modders. It uses some hack methods to call the API of the FactoryGame Library, and the .h files in /FactoryGame are also be modified by this mod. Well, it does not mean this mod hacked the game, it just hacks the compiler. I'm not sure it also works in the lastest version of the game, this is why I can't maintain a branch of this project at github, but I can show you all my source code.

I love this game, it gives me lots of fun, and I love this mod too, I didn't make it to be a business project. But I found that I cannot used the discord due to the great firewall, and the community almost completly works on it. It was a heavy blow to me, and sometimes I even can not open the github. I hope it can be changed in a few years. ​

I'm still a player of the Satisfactory Game. Hopes everybody have a good time:)

Hi, thanks for providing the source code and thanks for the mod, it was super useful and i really miss it. But nobody is entitled to use something that others created in their free time and maybe someone can build on your code (unfortunately i'm a java/kotlin guy and getting back into C++ seems exhausting)

Hi @cepheidqq !
First off thanks for making your mod open-source and hopefully with some effort from the community a chance for it to live again!
Ive decided to try to make this happen by drumming up some noise and hopefully drafting some of the community to make this happen. ive forked this repo and set up a discord server to allow people to come together to talk about the feasibility of this (links in the forked repo).
I was wondering if i could have your written permission to try to continue the project on in its current name in this community and open-sourced spirit?
a few members from the community would like you to give the go-ahead for this to happen. personally, I would like to continue it on as under the same title as an hommage to the hard work you have put in to get it to this pont but that is up to you ofcourse.
we would also love it if you would like to be apart of this in any way you like, even if thats taking a back seat and just calling in to chat when you can. any contribution from yourself would be awesome :)

kind regards, The1

Hello,
I have successfully patched your code for working with update 4 of the game @cepheidqq . I'm ready to upload/publish, but I need a license file to work with. Or at least a written consent to republish the mod. Of course, leaving credit to you. Github has a function for generating a licence file. Your mod is awesome. I do not intend to maintain the mod, but I have made the initial upgrade work.
Either I can upload it to @The1NdNly's rep, or I can upload it here. But I need permissions for either. If you have issues accessing github, it might be easier with @The1NdNly's rep. But its your call.

I am working together with @The1NdNly

Hi, i would ask if there's some progress on the Work and if Yes, are there any progress on the task with @cepheidqq in licensing. Or if there's any other way i would like to hear from you. Thanks in advance for all your work

Judging from this reply, the author seem to be okay with re-publishing the mod with a GPL or MIT license.
Are there any further difficulties in publishing it?
