GTA 5 source code leaks online

If it's a closed source release, how could anyone prove which code/framework they reused ?

I'd imagine a complex game engine has some bugs or weird behaviours in specific conditions. If it can be proven that the closed source game has a lot of the same bugs/behaviours, that is likely enough to win a lawsuit.

Finding this would be pretty trivial depending on how much was stolen. And proving this would be more of a matter for Rockstar lawyers

Decompile it and see things work exactly the way the original game does, bugs and all
