You should add a dialogue asking how the software will be licensed during install.

This is necessary because there's currently no way of activating a network license for Maple 2020 after the install is complete.

My current workaround for this was to edit PKGBUILD line 27 to:

"${srcdir}/Maple2020.1LinuxX64Installer.run" --mode unattended --installdir "${srcdir}/maple2020" --desktopshortcut 0 --defaultapp 0 --licenseType network --singleOrRedundant single --serverName MyServerName --portNumber 27000

I don't think it is acceptable to take user input in a PKGBUILD. You can't install this with an aur helper anyway so it's not really a problem to edit the PKGBUILD for your specific needs. I could add a comment in the PKGBUILD on how to install with a network license.
