Keyboard Sux

[giddion]

When naming planets and ships;

Why is it I can use numbers on my MAC (Steam) and not on Android?

Also, fix the keyboard on MAC (Steam) so that when I hold the shift key, it actually works. Typing with the mouse and keyboard sux. Click Shift, hit letter...


To change one letter at the start of a name, requires me to delete the entire text, for real... This is nuts, can I have a cursor and be able to navigate the text please, both with touch on Android (maybe even arrow keys on the keyboard map) or using the arrow keys on MAC (Steam).

giddion - thanks for the feedback. We're in process of making some big improvements to the PC / Mac / Linux keyboard, so you should see those soon.

Sorry that you dislike the keyboard implementation. We are working on adding 0-9 numbers to the mobile keyboard input.

Sorry that you dislike the game. Hope we can keep a positive attitude. We're always trying to improve.

Hi fallen,

Sorry if it sounded like I dont like the game, far from it, I LOVE IT!!!

But that doesn't mean there arn't things in it that urk me.

Why not use the phone/tablet keyboard pop out, rather than an on screen keyboard?

It seems to me that all of the charcters and layout and interface are done for you. You only need to call it for input and allow the character set as valid entries.


BTW I couldn't think of a better title. It may sound harsh, but I assure you it is not intended that way.
I have paid for many of your games and also for this one on two platforms. I am taking the effort to post things here, because I see the potential for improvement for what is a great gaming foundation.

You are welcome to come to our forum and say our product suck, if that is your opinion.

Thank goodness there are refund policies on all our markets. Hopefully this helps people who are unhappy.

You know that's exactly the point of view I had before trying to implement it. It is sad that we are only a two person team, and have one incompetent engineer. I keep telling him to wise up and get with the program but doesn't seem to stick.

hehehe... If I thought your games sucked, I wouldnt be wasting my time posting here.

Keep them updates coming.


BTW; I have never tried to program for Android, but a few of mates have said that the SDK sux when compared to Apple.


Now you are all making me feel bad, maybe I should have said "This game SUX" lol Joke, incase this gets missed.

If the keyboard is the only thing I say SUX, you should take that as an endorsment, I am sure I have said far worse about other software. For example, please never enable some stupid root check in your software, I HATE those people.

I think you should cut his pay and expense account privileges. Maybe, he is sub-consciously mutineering against such an oppressive overlord.

Of course, considering you only have one engineer, and one and a half artists (in your two-person team) ...
