Entropy Report post Posted January 17, 2017 Download link: http://www.eternal-lands.com/SDLActivity-debug.apk We have a proper app icon now (done by Roja). Fixed some hardware keyboard problems. Added some arrows around the camera rotation boxes. Spaced out the NPC reply options to be easier to hit the right one. Trade from storage works The storage categories are more spaced out The spells and manufacture windows are also closable with the back button. Please delete app data before installing, to benefit from the new arrow keys on the camera rotation areas. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ant Report post Posted January 18, 2017 I've tested the 7th release with my small external keyboard - the space bar problem gone. Thank you. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EatsAllLife Report post Posted January 18, 2017 No noticeable errors within the client so far, other than the loading screen looks a bit buggy, but nothing affecting gameplay. The only thing I'd suggest is what was said in channel 6 last night over right clicking for options, like alphabetical storage.Also, maybe an option for skill bars in the HUD? Not required of course, but maybe the select few we can put in the bottom bar next to EMU. Other than that, I'd say it is ready for the full release to Google Play!

hussam Report post Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) Hi. After clearing data and launching the new client, I cannot see character names. I attached a usb keyboard and tried to alt n but it did nothing. Device is samsung galaxy s7. Edit: Ok, nevermind, I figured out what happened. The name seems to disappear when camera perspective is under 0.40. It still shows at 0.10 on the desktop client. Edited January 18, 2017 by hussam Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caladina Report post Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) ok tested a few things, Space bar issue fixed, thanks disconnecting the bluetooth keyboard when client is live causes crash, (el client not responding message) the camera rotation boxes appear as solid blue rectangles only opaque not transparent, no arrows or other features ass with them, they work as before the player mob dots on mini map still to small, the map scale works fine, but doesnt increase said dots at same time still an excellent client, Google pixel C Tablet Are you able to make use of long press in the el client radu? maybe trade with characters and the opening of mini map could make use of this if able to, the latter being long press on map icon Edited January 18, 2017 by caladina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 18, 2017 I never said I changed anything with the minimap. I don't plan to make more changes to it, it's not a feature that many people are going to use, and it's almost useless on phones. I am trying to keep the interface as minimalistic as possible. As for trading with chars, I am not sure what you mean with long press... Can you be more specific? Why would you need that for trading? Regarding the solid blue bars, I can't reproduce the problem on any of my devices, but redownload the client please, I made some changes that I hope will fix it.

bkc56 Report post Posted January 19, 2017 The name seems to disappear when camera perspective is under 0.40. It still shows at 0.10 on the desktop client. OK, that's what's happening to me also. Names show at .40, vanish at .39. I run 0.05 on main. They also vanish if you enable Isometric-View. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
caladina Report post Posted January 19, 2017 (edited) i now see the arrows on the blue oblongs, personally i prefered the first version, bt i guess these are more obvious to new andy players long press is when you press and hold the screen, like when you pull up widgets in android etc yes i know you never said you were going to change anything in mini map, i was just saying was all. mini map is more likely to be used but tabletiers so it would have the screen space useage, on a phone i can see your point its something of a brussel sprout i like brussel sprouts Edited January 19, 2017 by caladina Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 19, 2017 I know what you meant by long press. I only asked why would that be necessary. It's a bit painful I think, to do it in order to trade (especially if the person moves). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Entropy Report post Posted January 20, 2017 I want to keep it as minimalistic as possible, because the screen space is a valuable resource on phones. You can check your action points in the stats window. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The_Piper Report post Posted January 22, 2017 Works well on my tablet, used it for one hour, no problems and, as usual, it's really fast, compared to the PC EL client. Piper Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EatsAllLife Report post Posted January 23, 2017 Correction; I found a single error so far. When you hit a number i.e. so say "@@1" the numbers will double and make it "@@11" Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maxine Report post Posted January 24, 2017 I asked for the minimap but it is worse than useless with dots of at most one pixel for players and mobs.Right now the minimap is a waste of space, on the main client it is an essential feature and something I always use. I tried playing but cannot fight any mobs or find the NPCs I need to talk to at night. Mixing is a royal nuisance with the one mix/click. At night visibility is poor, changing the gamma had no effect. I keep walking instead of clicking on mobs or trying to close a window. eating items from inv window requires me to switch to "use" mode first. It looks great but usability is poor. I wouldn't dream on fighting anything challenging on there, since you cannot dis/tele or do anything else that requires a coordinated sequence of actions. Event fighting giant spiders on a 10.1" Galaxy Tab 3 is annoying, and they are huge targets. Targeting is awkward, would be much improved if we got the "clicking on the name" option back. trying to hit a small spider is a study in frustration. Is there a way to reduce the size of the bag-window and make it a 1-click pick up of a bag? grabbing creature drops requires several taps, so I just leave stuff lying around. A lot of settings don't seem to do anything and/or don't get saved on exiting. Power consumption is high in spite of reducing settings to a minimum and turning all nice features off. Game has drained my tablet several times now, every time requiring me to open the tablet for a hard reset (disconnect/connect) of the battery so it will charge again. This is a Samsung Galaxy issue, but with EL draining the battery this fast and not stopping the client when I log off, it is currently preventing me from testing any further. I am back to using the limited old client, cant talk to NPCs but mixing and harvesting are much more convenient. If this is the final Android client, then I am not going to test it any further. Seen enough, not compatible with small critter fighting, Lenny, Joker, pear or Ivan hunting, mixing large quantities or making a lot of different items. This pretty much sums up all the things I enjoy doing in EL, so I guess it is just not compatible with my playstyle. Since that playstyle rarely costs a rosto, I assume it is not interesting as a client base. Nice try. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Vanyel Report post Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) I have used it for a bit now. I like the graphics. My concern is generally understood UI. Some parts of it are just too small for me to click (Galaxy S6), eg. menu items - I tried the infamous pinch gesture to scale them (a habit for most of android users by now). Some tweaks from maxine posts, that would make gameplay simplified in comparison to PC would be good. If they work - maybe some them could be introduced to PC client as well? All in all, I like the direction it goes to. I hope to see it develop further. Edited January 25, 2017 by Vanyel Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Entropy Report post Posted January 25, 2017 Which parts of the UI did you have problems with? I already resized some of the menus that people had trouble with, such as the NPC reply window and the storage categories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nathanstenzel Report post Posted January 26, 2017 In release 6, bone eating did not seem to work. Is that fixed now? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.pocketworkstation.pckeyboardmay be somewhat useful. Not like it is convenient, but you can do the turn right, turn left, step forward, tab, ` using that keyboard. You can also do alt-# qnd ctrl-# whih are pointless unless in console.
