To be fair the whole culture of mods being closed-source sucks, I bet if people could learn from actual BMS, SMOD, MMOD and other feature heavy mods' coders we would have way better and way more mods by now, but I guess everyone just holds onto their toys and a good portion of the new guys just starting to mod HL2 have to reinvent the wheel since there are no good source code examples online and not everyone enjoys working with barely documented stuff that ends up creating errors that trace back to valve closedsource engine.dll so most of them leave.
I kinda wish more mod authors open sourced their mods at least after the popularity peak.
