what is team edition?
does it mean that i can buy the commercial team edition for 3+ users, and not publish games, but put the program on fellow developers computers?
Then if i buy the student edition of commercial, can i then publish games?
this sounds perfect, since the 3+ users version is very cheap. i could finish a game with friends, (and if its any good) buy the students edition and publish it. would this work? or do i have the wrong idea?

i guess student edition is only for colleges or something. And for team +3 editions,first you need a valid license(not a team license, a normal one), tehn you can add 3 more by purchasing team edition. Only the original license can publish games, the other licenses can run the engine and editors without day/feature limits but cant publish.

this is what i know, maybe it's wrong.


(btw, this thread is for "Ask Develepors" section i guess.)

then what is the price-reduced student commercial edition? it says you must have team edition to purchase it. could you purchase just the team edition, then the price-reduced student full edition?

it says:
"Gamestudio team editions are multi-seat licenses for developer teams or educational purposes. All users of a team edition must use the software for the same project or for educational purposes, and may not use it for separate projects or outside the team or classroom. The Team Edition does not include the license to publish and distribute projects - for this an additional normal edition is required.

Team Editions are available for 3 or more seats at a fraction of the normal edition price. For ordering, please click [Add to Card] and then enter the desired number of seats under 'Quantity'."
this means you don't have to buy anything beforehand, you just have to buy at least 3 licenses.i understand it now. thanks for your help.
