To me, at least, saying any method of gaining knowledge is not moral or ethical is at least a bit hypocritical. some time later some guy unpacks your files and peeks at your code (and lets be real here, the only reason to peek at someone else’s code is to gain knowledge you did not earn(commonly referred to as stealing) and use it to adapt “your code”) if he then goes on to make a game with said function you would sue the **** out of him.įirst of all, this whole forum we’re on is built with the objective of sharing knowledge. so you make a game that includes said code and all is well. say you find a greatly efficient way to code some random function, now you could freely share that knowledge, maybe even do a tutorial, or you might want to keep it to yourself.
