﻿Independent Project Licence (IPL)




This licence governs the use of the following materials: code, mod mechanics, and art assets (collectively "Materials") created by [Sacredanarchy] for Factorio mods. These Materials are provided on an “as is” basis without warranty of any kind.


Section 1: Code & Mod Mechanics – Free Use with Attribution


You are free to use, modify, distribute, and create derivative works based upon this code and mod mechanics (the "Code & Mechanics") for any purpose, including commercial purposes, provided you comply with the following conditions:


Attribution: You must give appropriate credit. This includes, but is not limited to:
- Linking to the original Factorio Mod Portal page for the mod in your project's description or documentation.
- Acknowledging [SacredAnarchy] as the creator of the Code & Mechanics.
- Providing a link to the original source (e.g., Factorio Mod Portal page or GitHub repository) if applicable.
- Indicating if changes were made. You may do so in any reasonable manner, but not in any way that suggests the licensor endorses or supports you or your work.


Share Alike: If you distribute a modified version of this Code & Mechanics, you must licence it under the same terms as this Independent Project Licence (IPL). This ensures continued openness and sharing within the Factorio modding community.


Section 2: Art Assets – Restricted Use


The art assets included in these Materials (the "Art Assets") are subject to separate and more restrictive terms. You may use the Code & Mechanics provided they do not utilize the Art Assets. However, you may not reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works based upon the Art Assets without explicit permission from [SacredAnarchy].

You are permitted to use the Code & Mechanics and Art Assets within videos, streams, or other media formats (e.g., YouTube videos, Twitch streams, tutorials) without requiring explicit permission, provided you give appropriate attribution as outlined in Section 1. This includes showcasing gameplay featuring the mod, creating tutorials demonstrating its functionality, or incorporating it into Let's Play videos.
