Spent the past 2 days crawling through the files. There are over 80 changes made in this new version and the most prominent is the addition of a file called Ping server located in
app/Traits/Pingserver.php
This file is called in all Controllers, Traits and Livewire files.
I think they now authenticate all calls on the app with their server and it only goes through if you have a valid license.
I think that's file might have something to do with the script functionality.
At this point I have no choice but to say wow, the dev is really trying to lock people out.
@NullMaster @Syntaxbyte please helllp!
