Unity Build License (*not* Build Server) information?

[JesseSTG_1]

I was looking through the Unity Software Additional Terms and found something interesting in Section 1.5 for users of Unity Pro:

1.5 Build License.
Notwithstanding these Software Terms, the following applies if you purchase Unity’s “Build License” subscription:

Your Build License subscription includes one (1) subscription to use Unity Pro. Subject to your continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Unity grants you a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right during the applicable subscription term to install that copy of Unity Pro on up to ten (10) internal build machines, and you may use that copy for the sole purposes of publishing and distributing, but not creating, your Project Content. Your use of Unity Pro as part of your Build License subscription is subject to all rights and restrictions set forth herein with respect to Unity Pro, unless explicitly modified by this Section 1.5.

For clarity, you must purchase a separate “Unity Build Server” subscription in order to use Unity Build Server, subject to the Unity Build Server Terms. These Software Terms do not apply to your use of Unity Build Server.

This appears to be an offering that’s distinct from Unity Build Server. However, I can’t find any public information about the Unity Build License subscription; where can I find out more information about it?

No, it’s all part of the same thing. The wording is maybe a little confusing - I’ve pinged legal to see if they can get it clarified - but the Build License subscriptions that the terms are referring to are the individual ‘seats’ you buy in your Unity Build Server subscription.

EDIT: Not accurate - see my post below…

So if I subscribe to the minimal plan for Unity Build Server, how many machines can I use?

[superpig]

The minimum package is for 3 licenses, so that would let you have three machines running Unity simultaneously.

How does that square away with this sentence?

Subject to your continued compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, Unity grants you a limited, worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right during the applicable subscription term to install that copy of Unity Pro on up to ten (10) internal build machines, and you may use that copy for the sole purposes of publishing and distributing, but not creating, your Project Content.

Hmm. I think that might be an overlooked remnant of a previous incarnation of the product… let me ping the folks about it and get back to you.

Thank you. I appreciate the clarity and quick responses, especially on a weekend.

My apologies - it seems I had this wrong, and you were right in your first post.

“Build License” is the old product, the precursor to Unity Build Server. It was only ever available to Enterprise customers through direct sales channels - that’s why you don’t see public mention of it - and now that Unity Build Server is available, Build License is no longer available to new customers.

This is useful information, thank you!
