As I've been using mods for Tears of the Kingdom game there were 2 versions of the DS4 UI prompts mod.

The first one almost never worked and was slowly getting updated so another dude just remade a new one and made it better and for all layouts.

The dude that created the first mod then started sending cringe messages to the new modder about how they look awfully similar and why did he choose to do that.

Dude, you made a mod that changes the letter A icon to the letter O icon. What creative freedom do you think there is to make a unique mod?

  • it admits that it's not your code (at least the former)
  • it provides a reference to go back and see the reasoning (if understanding the code is the issue)
