Just a quick question, why? Is it because Take2 or Rockstar will come after anyone that they think copied their code, or are there a lot of bad practices used in GTA5’s code?
Because even the possibility that you implemented somebody else’s proprietary code from memory or inspiration opens up a lot of legal issues.
And while you may win there’s no winners when you or your employer has to pay your side of legal fees. It’s best to just avoid it to make that process easier.
Sure if you copy the whole thing. But if you treat it like another resource like Stack Overflow then the only way to get caught is if you put the code on your work machine.
People quit their job and move to a company every week and the knowledge of rockstars engine doesn’t leave their brain.
Didn’t you hear about TakeTwo’s TakeTwo brain implants? They take two chips and put them in emloyees heads. It acts as their work-related memory. When they come into the office it activates and when they go home it turns off (supposedly). There’s no way you could fool such sofisticated TakeHome tech!

If they can prove it. There’s only so many way to do something in code
If this includes the euphoria physics engine and someone copies it… it will be incredibly easy to prove that it’s stolen.

Where I live, the losing side must pay for all legal fees
Ok, that’s what I thought you meant by the original comment but I wanted to make sure.
Thanks
