Good luck to them if they make it work like CM does, although they'll still be imperfect people playing an imperfect game
As a note I have already improved the legacy base far beyond what it used to be boot times are kept to around 1~ minute with 3 500x500 maps runtime cpu usage sits around 1~ I did quite a few improvements to both the MC and subsystems associated with the base of /TG/ and no I have no intention of sharing said improvements and optimization with /TG/ due to the massive amounts of drama /TG/ has caused for our development group and community. I feel /TG/ has went out of their way to make an example of the Official Fallout 13 project at the expense of those who worked on the project. I also implemented a nice new donation and whitelist system from scratch which works quite nicely for adding many special features for both donators and whitelist applicants.
The leadership here had no regard to how this would personally effect the project or anyone on the team and had nothing to gain by trying to force our group to release. I have lost much respect for /TG/ although I doubt they care. My intentions are to continue to project and give full support to my community and to whatever they want in the game at this time that does include an 18+ only community and ERP.
I would also like to note before ever hosting our new build I personally came to contact MrStonedOne telling him that we wouldnt be fully open sourcing but offering him all of our core code that he may or may not be able to use. He did not respond and instead directly contacted BYOND with a DMCA. We originally had no problem sharing our code whatsoever our problem was sharing the sprites.
As for being less then sane it is certainly possible I run two communities fallout 13's official English community and have been doing so without an active headmin as well as Dungeon Master not to mention I am the sole and head developer for the English side of the project. I also contribute to PCSX2 and am in the middle of a custody battle with my gf having had to file to ex parte orders against her to protect my son from abuse and neglect. So at this current point im also a single parent. I believe yes it might make me less then sane... maybe?
As a note $1500 retainer so my budget this month has been quite "tight". This also adds to the stress of this whole situation. I went to court on the 22nd and now have to go back on the 6th as my lawyer suggested to the judge an extension to allow my ex to get a lawyer.
As for features in /TG/ I have a far more in-depth dismemberment system in dungeon master which was quite simple to write we will soon have that added as well once I get more time to work on the project. After adding in that, colored & dynamic lighting, 3d sounds, gun impact effects, and a new loadout system we will be back on track.
