Introduction
August is one magical month.
It's the month where people like to seem like to get angry and defecate onto other people's otherwise peaceful lives for no reason.
No good reason, I should say.
Restart, the creator of Fossil MZ, decided to do just that.
Part 1. Accusations
|
Out of the blue, I got this direct message in Discord one day.
The first thing that comes to mind is how strangely worded this whole thing is.
Why?
- It's extremely vague with what is the actual problem.
- It's extremely vague with who actually "verified" the problem.
- It's extremely vague why I need to be there in person to answer questions.
And for those wondering, he never answered which are the members that "verified" this.

I'm sorry, but when I see people texting and driving, it angers me. It reeks of irresponsibility.

I don't understand why this couldn't have been stated in his initial post. Is it so hard to say "I think there's a potential copyright violation with your Dragonbones Union plugin" to get the point instead of skirting around?
I also don't know why this is even a copyright violation in the first place since the MV plugin is something that both The Green Kel and I have collaborated on. Apparently, I can infringe upon my own copyrighted work?

Do you want to know why I'm so confident that we aren't using the code from the KELYEP_DragonBones.js?
That's because we tried to use it and it wasn't compatible with the new PixiJS version.
This was attempted three times over.
- First attempt was a direct port.
- Second attempt was a modified port.
- Third attempt was a PixiJS function reversion. It "worked" but it also broke everything else. However, that's a story for another day.
Ultimately, we decided the best course of action was to recreate the integration from the ground up.

He shows one function that had an argument (what he calls a "variable") that was unused.
This is what tipped me off to something strange: Any kind of programmer should know full well there are differences between "variables" and "arguments" but I digress.
Furthermore, unused arguments aren't uncommon. Look at RPG Maker MZ's coresripts. There are functions all over the place that have unused arguments.
Like that.
However, at this point, I'm still unsure at what he's trying to get at.
