tldr; the developer of Eve ("CCP") is going to open source their engine

Their engine, not the game or server code? How does the engine help their game live forever?

[–] Dark_Arc@social.packetloss.gg 15 points 4 months ago

Probably hoping to crowd source the engine development to reduce costs, but honestly no idea.

Not just the engine, no.

the company is planning to make its proprietary Carbon Development Platform – which encompasses the studio's Carbon Engine and other technology – an open source property

[–] bionicjoey@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

That's pretty vague. What is "other technology"?
