Downloading any of my mods constitutes a complete and unconditional agreement with these terms!
As is necessity, I reserve the right to make changes to these terms at any time and grant exceptions if I so desire.
All permissions and exceptions are non-transferrable and revocable.
The terms only apply so long as you actually use and/or own copies of the mods; if you wish to terminate the agreement with these conditions, you may do so by uninstalling them, such as by unsubscribing on the steam workshop.
In the event that any clause or part thereof of this license proves unenforceable or invalid, it will be replaced by the closest usable variant, or removed if no such possibility exists. Under no circumstances does the failure of one part of this license impact the remainder.
