Programming & Scripting

Hello, everyone. so for my game, I wanted to allow user to write script and play test in game. So they do not have test everything by running a standalong game. And, we do not want user to download a delicated Unreal Engine 5 and install all the required plugin and stuff. So, I have came across multiple topic talks about shipping editor with game.

Integration of unreal editor into game and shipment of source code for full modding - Programming & Scripting / C++ - Epic Developer Community Forums (unrealengine.com)
Does this mean that games cant be moddable? - Development / Cinematics & Media - Epic Developer Community Forums (unrealengine.com)

So the main problem here is basically the EULA that we do not allow to ship any Unreal Engine Tool. However, when UEFN comes out, I believe it might change a little bit. As well as the Insurgency: Sandstorm - Mod Tools & Editor that allow user to make custom map in the editor. I also found tutorial about UGC release by epic.

So my question is, am i allow to release my version of editor and ship it with my game? Can I make something like UEFN?
