"Port Navigators... Assemble." Couldn't resist.
Works on RG503/ArkOS full screen. Nice.

Wow.. Buttons are a bit wacky as crap indeed ππ₯
Analog works fine
β RG353M arkos
.. Touch screen works btw

<@576856879586738206> nice!! You solved the server/mouse issue!
It's what kloptops managed to find out
a year or so ago π
I just packaged it now lol
the server issue was a typo π

Awful on rg351p amberelec- boots but hard to read print and cursor only moves in mid to upper screen
Unplayable

yep same on OGA unsuprisingly. I guess that one is out for that resolution.
Looks absolutely fine on 353VS.. its just so far I havnt been able to find out how to end a first turn π
oh it needs to bind the Shift key, nvm π
nova ridge
oh it needs to bind the Shift key, nvm π
Only shift? On which button should we do it?
Idk which other keys are handy
torpid solar
not just shift, it needs Shift + Enter, so two buttons
you could always bind it on select + start, to properly.. ahem... end the turn! π
torpid solar
We can do key combos in gptk, right?
valid musk

select + something
BUT
you can do a = shift, then a + b will be shift + whatever b is
torpid solar
yeah, I put it for now on l1, I mean if we are able to assign 2 keys to one button press
torpid solar
anyway I placed those 2 keys on y + x, those should be always next to each other on various front buttons layouts. And F9 to L2, so I can close the annoying message window
inner burrow
Starts a new local match fine on JELOS RGB30
defaults to 640x480 stretched to 720x720. Even with an empty saves folder (probably should ship empty?)
To change resolution: Options -> Local options -> Interface -> Screen resolution (scroll all the way down). Click green checkmark at the top, restart game.
don't know this game and game is too complicated for me to play on handheld, so I'm not going attempt to understand the controls tbh...

exactly
Somehow i feel we could get a lot more testers and contributors for such thinhs
but not sure how yet
bronze hemlock
Not sure why, but people always seem interested in testing, then leave
bronze hemlock
That guy that asked me to be a tester for new ports in dm's, havent seen him
valid musk
100 ports tested makes you a <@&1171201908615168001>, like our one true @torpid solar
gleaming rampart
That guy that asked me to be a tester for new ports in dm's, havent seen him
Because they think testing means free games
nova ridge
Yeah maybe ranks or something

About the controls, steam has a setting for Steam Controller, made by the developers to use it. It's the only way to play with a controller. I have both the Steam game and the controller. Gonna see how they map it, and report back to you guys. Maybe i'll try to make the gptk file. π
earnest timber
But from what I remember playing with the controller, what's really needed to be mapped is mouse inputs and the "pass the turn" button.
bronze hemlock
Doesnt that have a trackpad?
earnest timber
Yes, It does. π
bronze hemlock
Gonna be hard to replicate all the functions then haha
earnest timber
I don't think we need all the shortkey, since this a turn based game. If we can get te mouse input working and the pass the turn button going (it's probably enter) that's more then enough. The rest are just a bunch of screens anyways.
earnest timber
So this is the official steam controller mapings.

its not in english
so sounds like you're up buddy

mouse is working
remember we have gptokeyb
its about mapping not getting mouse to work lol
earnest timber
Well, this one worked for me.
Just couldn't get the pass the turn to work. It's shift+enter. I don't know if key combinations are possible.
Also, tested on RockNix, x55. The game is really small on this device, but I think it might be a RockNix issue.
nova ridge
Well, this one worked for me.
i know we had this already
we've been looking to set all the advanced commands into the game
like 20 commands with hotkeys and all
nova ridge
yeah but we want to map it so it can be played efficient π
There are certain things you want to access faster
like resaerch window, diplomatics menu
you don't want to go with the mouse to everything
and some things are rather painful without a keyboard
like banding / unbanding roups
or we just release it with basic controls until someone comes along who wants to perfect it π
Someone who actually plays games
earnest timber
I think we just release and wait for that CIV player to map what's really missing. Because I'm good on what he got now.
I'm sure a expert player might have some thoughts on it.

Is this playable on muos?
next crow

As soon as i can i will
next crow
