I couldn't care less if others are playing the game through AE and may even do some of it myself. But even if I don't, what they do does not impact my enjoyment of this game. So, the real question is why? Why remove fix something that really has no impact of most of the players?
The code for Tequila is on git (https://github.com/leandrotlz/Tequila) and has been for 5 years so, that's not really accurate.
There has not been a line for line audit demanded of Tequila which is what we are getting for cream soda which is what I was what I meant about knowing less.
AH ok. Sorry. This is true.
Cryptic has not been involved in City of Heroes since 2007 when it sold the rights to the game's publisher, NCSoft. Neither Cryptic nor PWI have a say at all in this really.
The one problem I have here with this announcement is that using Tequila vs Cream Soda does not eliminate this threat vector. They function identically. I'm not saying either author would do this. But, choosing one over the other is not safer from that standpoint.
