There was a separate thread on Lemmy, where someone found out Devs of CO used leaked source code of the Source Engine from 2017, hence the C&D
I don’t get it. Used it for what? Why would they need leaked source engine code to make a mod for the source engine with the official SDK?
That would make sense, if true.
I’d be curious to see that if you have the link. The mod devs state in their FAQ that they’re not using any leaked code, but of course it’s possible that they’re lying.
