Hi; I work on a simulator project and I am on the very early stage 
, my problem is how can I setup a licensing system for my simulators.
My simulators will be so many and my customers probably will by at least 5 simulator , and they will purchase seperatelly. there will be 10 simulators on my market place and they are related with same topic.
So when my custumers buy a couple simulators I should check their license and so I need some advise for it.
Some of possible solutions which I thought;
-
deploying for html5 and creating a website , so custumers can buy my game and they can use so many simulators under the one account and I can activate their simulators according to their purchase.But some dis advantages of this system ; Html5 deploying capabilities looks not good enough . I wanna use the power of this engine for giving an realistic user experince to my custumers, so they can enjoy with simulators.I just tried to deploy a scene with just a cople box with out no texture and it took almost 20 minutes.So I am scared this will make custumers feel bored.
- I will put my simulator to the steam and I will pay nearly %30 of revenue because of their sevices. But on this system I must upload too many simulator to the steam and probably it will very hard because of their greenlight seystem. However I heard people can buy new levels from steam for their current games . So My solution can be maybe deploying a simulator base With no any simulator so they can download this first without purchasing from steam and they can start to buy which simulator they like from steam.On this way they will download it as a level or something.On this point I cannot imagine more . Maybe as an disadvantages of this some bad guys can crack my game .I am not sure can ue4 work with steam.
Please inform me if you have any idea about that. Thanks
