Android client, 10th release

Recommended Posts

Link as usual: http://www.eternal-lands.com/SDLActivity-debug.apk

 

I think this should be the release version, more or less. Please test it, as usual.

 

Changes:

Added an option in the HUD menu to turn off the camera bars (there will only be an outline)

Fixed a bug where the keyboard would pop up briefly when closing some buttons using the back key.
Improved a bit selecting the creature to attack.
It's easier to select bags now (just click where the bag is, even if covered by a dead mob)

I'm still hoping a simple way to select the server will be added before the final, final release. I'm actually more interested in access to the PK server than I am to the main server.

Now the android keyboard is not called with "Back" button at all. How can I write in the console mode ?

 

And the name/HP tags on the characters still don't showed in Isometric View (sometimes twinkling from another players though). May be this mode must be disabled in the final release ?

You mean the keyboard doesn't come up anymore, or what?

Are you using the on screen keyboard?

Also, try restarting your tablet.

hi, both keyboards work fine, problem kicks in when i do as above and put el into background or what ever its called.

 

on bringing app back to play, i no longer can use either keyboard to type messages,

 

i close app and relogin and it works fine till i but it into bg again

 

restarted tablet problem still there

 

i'm not asking for a fix for myself i can very much live with this,

its more for your info and other people to test

 

if its device related i havent heard of any other pixel c tab useres yet

 

i will be getting a nexus / pixel 7 inch when it comes out later on for testing el

ok i found a resolve for this problem

 

if the either keyboard not responding after the above senario, double tapping the blue camera bar to recall the virtual keyboard resets both,

this may well not even be a problem, just a recall needed to bring keyboards back into play

This is identical behavior on the PC client, not an Android issue

Client works great on my huawei mediapad 8 inch tablet


--A few little issues:


I'm having difficulty selecting options in NPC dialogs, hard to find the right spot to tap. Even using the stylus I have to tap around the option a bit until it registers.


When typing in the history window, I can hardly read what is in the input field due to background text showing through. Maybe make the input field opaque when the keyboard is open, or move it up below the chat window buttons and before the history text starts when the history window is active.


Spell quickbar: hard to see the spell icons on some backgrounds, and awfully close to my home button. Could these have a background like the item quickbar, and move left a little to line up with it?


Double tap: Not sure if it's me, my tablet or the client, but I seem to register double taps far too easily. In fact the only place I find this is on the man window mix all button, and the camera bars. I'm always bringing up the keyboard by accident while turning the camera


--A few features that would be useful:


Swipe down in the 3d window to re-display the last few lines of chat history, like the view all button does in the PC client


A zoom bar. I suck at pinch-zooming. Badly. Tons of room above the camera up-down bar for a vertical zoom in-out bar :)


Long press for right click, to bring up window options and such.


Now, just for shits and giggles, I installed the client on my alcatel pixi 3.5 inch phone. After playing around with settings it is surprisingly playable, getting better fps than my PC or laptop.

It might be a big ask, but a user option for scale on window sizes and their associated fonts would be awesome. I guess this one is not a big deal, probably most users aren't as povvo as me and have bigger phones :P

Thanks for the feedback. I was thinking to move the quick spells to the right of the quick items. Then I can make the HUD a bit larger too, so the spell icons won't go into the compass area.
