android gameplay

hi

Just installed android version which runs fine but ... is it possible the controls in android are currently unusable?

 

- clicking a close X of a window is almost impossible on a tablet because it's too small

 

- how to scroll a park up/down/left/right?

Yes, I said that when I said when you first asked about the Android version. It's hard to play with a touchscreen because the UI is designed for a mouse - therefore, unless you can plug in a mouse, it's not very usable on Android. That's why very few people use it.

why is the game even compiled for android then?
there should specifc 'touch' controls for android made. is this planned?

I scaled up the factor to 3.5 and now it's quite usable

 

It's cool to look at your created parks on a desktop pc!

that's what I useit for now.

Because it can be? It's not too hard to make an Android build for people who might want one. The Android builds have broken for extended periods in the past because they're not really being maintained, it's never been a particularly high priority for the developers, but if you want one you can have one. There's a reason it isn't used much.

Look, we're doing this in our spare time, because we all have day jobs and all kinds of other stuff. We only have limited time to work on OpenRCT2 and we have to set priorities.

You really need to be more patient. Development of open source projects takes time. You also shouldn't keep e-mailing IntelOrca. Ask your questions here and actually *wait* a few days - do not get impatient if your question isn't answered straight away. (Also note that this is basic forum etiquette.)

You think calling the developers "fucking retards" is OK but asking you not to spam them with emails isn't? You know that @Gymnasiast is on the development team right?
