Just giving you all a warning to avoid purchasing plugins from Foundat.io

http://yanfly.moe/2019/04/16/avoid-purchasing-plugins-from-foundat-io/

To sum it up, they've been found stealing code/plugins from the Yanfly Engine Plugins library and from Galv's library, too. Details and evidence are found in the link above. We haven't confirmed their paywalled plugins nor do we intend to (since they cost $40 USD each), but given the track record so far, it's not unreasonable to assume that they're stolen as well.

I will never pay for a plugin that I can get for free from another dev. Seriously, if you're thinking of buying a plugin for $40 and you don't even know about Yanfly plugins, you need to do more research. If you're reading this right now, you've probably done enough research.

The problem with a lot of free plugins is that they stop being supported by their creators at some point, and eventually they break. An implied promise of maintenance and support is very appealing, particularly if the plugin is central to your game. There absolutely should be an ecosystem of paid/Patreon plugins, but lifting code from other devs obviously isn't the way to do it.

I'm only a 41 month patron of Yanfly's because he was giving away his plugins for free, even for commercial use, for so long before even having the option to offer a gratuity for it. As such, that people are taking them, doctoring them up, then reselling it for a pretty sizeable pricetag is simply offensive.
