The game's licensing is a mess
The game is freeware, not free software. Huge difference.

Indeed, missing webpages and no permission to distribute mods.
Yes, some of the links that section points to which list other relevant licensing details don't work, the links point to page not found errors.
What we can see says this game is actually non-free software because you get no permission to distribute modified code ("you may freely distribute the AssaultCube installer/archive unmodified").
I hope the developers can relicense the game to qualify as free software.
