License
|

-------
|
||||
|
||||
ChunkAPI is designed with players in mind, and as such, it uses slightly aggressive licensing to make sure that third
|
||||
party developers cannot break your worlds in an irrecoverable way by changing huge parts of the API.
|
||||
The mod itself is fully licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3.0, with several
|
||||
additional permissions according to Section 7 of the AGPL to make it compatible with Minecraft, while at the same
|
||||
time protecting your save files from getting corrupted by broken commits.
|
||||
|
||||
For this reason, the mod itself is fully licensed under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3.0 or later,
|
||||
with several additional permissions according to Section 7 of the AGPL.
|
||||
You can find these permissions in the full [LICENSE](LICENSE) file. (TL;DR: Yes, you can use ChunkAPI in a modpack
|
||||
without getting trapped by AGPL's viral licensing).
|
||||
|
||||
You can find these permissions in the full [LICENSE](LICENSE) file. (TL;DR: Yes, you can use official releases of
|
||||
ChunkAPI in a modpack without getting trapped by AGPL's requirements).
|
||||
The additional permissions help ensure that no matter what fork of this mod you use, your saves are going to be
|
||||
fully compatible, and your worlds don't get trapped in an abandoned fork of the mod with a different save file format
|
||||
that cannot be loaded by any other fork.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that while these limitations might seem unnecessary, it is essential for protecting your saves from getting
|
||||
"trapped" in a random fork of ChunkAPI without any way to recover to vanilla or the official release of ChunkAPI
|
||||
without world corruption, in case no suitable backups are available.
|
||||
Note that forks of this mod may have bugfixes that the original mod does not, so you should only swap different forks'
|
||||
releases of this mod if you know how those bugfixes affect the other mods you're using it with.
