Top-left corner question menus made bigger
I like how the text is in the style of the original text. What still isn't big enough is the scroll up and down buttons on all the menus. Out of all the buttons, they appear to me to have the smallest hitbox.
Fixed scrolling.
Now one press corresponds to moving the menu 1 space, which means scrolling through to level 80 magic spells would take forever. What would be useful is if one button corresponded to a full page's worth of scrolling. What I mean is that each press should bring up all new options.
Rewrote touch controls:
-Right clicking happens works more like it would work at PC, Hold and press to open rightclick menu, keep holding down and select option, then release finger to select. As of now there's no way to cancel the click other than selecting Cancel option from the right-click menu.
First off, I like the concept of holding down and releasing to select your option. I think you should keep it like this--BUT, 2 things are currently making it unusable
1. The amount of time you have to wait for the right click is way too long. It was good before, but if anything, the time should be reduced, not increased. I never accidentally right clicked when attempting to left click, which is the only reason for not making it as fast as possible. The faster it is while still being distinct from left clicks it necessary for increased functionality on the android client.
2. Currently, if you drag your finger outside of the menu hitbox, a single click is registered wherever your finger is released. However, intuitively this should cancel the right click menu. Being able to do this would be a huge advantage over the previous clicking system, which didn't offer a consistent way to cancel right clicks.
-Single-tapping should be more responsive.
I can feel the difference. It's nice.
If you plan on increasing the functionality of android further, here are my past opinions about things that could make it better. Most important (to me at least) would be shifting the messages information up when the keyboard is active, and increasing the size of the scroll buttons.
As a 100% android user, here are some things that would make life easier:
- Make the scroll buttons (magic, prayers, quests, and chat) twice as big. I always misclick the edge of the scrolling bar which causes me to jump all the way up or all the way down in the list. Scrolling through chat is currently unfeasible, which demotivates android users from engaging socially in the game.
- Change the scroll buttons so that one press corresponds to a full page's worth of scrolling
- Change the scroll bar so that it is draggable with your finger
- When the keyboard is activated, the message dialogue should be shifted above the keyboard so that you're still being notified of things. This is useful if someone is trying to trade you, or someone just said in chat what you were planning on typing out, or if someone with a complicated username pm'd you and you're trying to add them to your friends list
- Typing "::1" takes a few seconds on android. Is there any easier way we could change our input to global (like typing "global" for example?)
- Several viewing options to choose from would be useful as others have mentioned, as the camera seems very zoomed in. This could be fixed by adding a scroll bar in the settings menu which changes how zoomed in you are, or more easily by having 3 set views that can be toggled by pressing a specific button combination. For example, pressing the power button and the up-volume button at the same time.
- A few months ago the right-click text was increased, which was nice. But the text is shifted up from the translucent background it is supposed to lie on which causes the "Choose Option" to be partially outside of the box. Sometimes the text is also very acutely overlapping. Minor, but it looks unprofessional.
I'll add more if I think of anything.
EDITS:
- Recently the chat has been moving pretty fast with local + global chat. It would be nice to have maybe 6 viewable lines instead of 4.
