Chronon, as long as you make a note into the 'readme' of your mod as to where the idea came from I have no problems what so ever. Even if you are taking the basics and changing the values to suit your own style a simple 'thanks/inspired by' is great. Alot of what I've done has been inspired by others (Fyron and I worked on the TAG mount, the gatling mounts were inspired by SJ, etc), the mounts are pretty much generic (ie, everyone has a Spinal Mount somewhere in their modds) just tweaked to what I want (though I think I was the first to do Engine/Robo-Miner mounts...think....could be totally wrong too...
)
