I recently had to fix my computer 'cos the hard drive died and i got a new hard drive on it now. I just downloaded a new install of skyline but when i go to paste in my license key to start the editor it says that it is already activated and says it will now shut down the skyline editor. After that it says that i can start the free version to start the trial out but it will not start the editor in free trial mode or in any mode ! How do i get this to work ? thanks

Great job guys! Waiting for the lua API for pathfinding.

Questions about licencee:
1) Glad to hear about a new license! It will be available to all or only to beta testers?
2) Is it possible to make so that you yourself can detach the license from your computer?
For example, in Corona SDK is possible in menu engine to disable the license, in order to connect it on another computer.

The free version of Skyline will be basically a version to try out and see if the product is to your liking rather than a time limited trial version. Then if you like the product they would then purchase the £75 indie version. (concessions and regional pricing is still our policy). There will still be a player to see what the end game would look like and how it could perform.

With us being a backroom project( not a corporation or even big team) we have no money to keep developing Skyline without making some form of income from the Skyline project at some point. We could not exist with a free commercial version of Skyline as it would make no sense to us, as there would be no reward or exchange for our years of continuing devotion to the project.

The Beta testers now have the £75 commercial Indie version as a reward for being with us throughout the unstable testing phase of development.
