At the momoment players that use the pc are able to use their keyboard to nudge pieces around all axis in small increments, allowing them to fine-tune object placement to a degree at which mobile users simply can not achieve.
For me this is a literal game changer. I think that it really limits the degree to which a mobile player can build in this game. Having a ui that allows us to essentially quick edit the position in the xml without having to go through the process would be invaluable.
On a personal issue... could we get Samsung s-pen support? That benefits mostly me as pertaining to this post. But it sure would be nice.
What do you guys think?
@TheLatentImage I used to be able to email Jundroo directly but now they don't respond -_- so I'll just button mash when I get free.
@Nickasaurus you could do that, or you could just try for yourself? I know that's how you do it. I'm just not sure what button presses yield certain results.
@TheLatentImage huh. I'll ask around
@Nickasaurus I'm not sure to be honest, you'll just have to play with it. I know it involves placing a piece and having it highlighted, then using the number pad to move it around. It's like quick xml edit without having to xml edit. Give it a shot and let me know if it works for you.
@TheLatentImage no! I didn't know there was one! XD what buttons
@Nickasaurus well do you use the nudge feature using the keypad on the keyboard?
@TheLatentImage both
@Nickasaurus do you use pc or mobile?
i have been looking at this for days and still don't see how pc is better than mobile in the editor
Yes, I'd like to have this very much indeed. Working on an iPad is sometimes challenging.
@JMicah4 if you try it out and think that it would be useful on mobile be sure to upvote!
@JMicah4 I'm not entirely sure as I don't have a computer. But I think that it might have something to do with the number pad.
@TheLatentImage How do you move things around with a keyboard? I have hit every letter.
@TheLatentImage jokes on you I have a spare sub im using lol
@Puredeath yes... but you still don't have anywhere to set your drink.
@TheLatentImage lol its fine I can edit xml with out having to restart my game lol
@Puredeath I agree, if I can't have it... no one can! Lol
@AndrewGarrison
I think PC should have nudgeing removed to make it equal with mobile... /sarcasm
@Rohan Yep, that's me.
I think it's from the monster god image I saw in a Star Trek movie. @Rohan
Absolutely. Mobile UI change may take a while. On my Fire HD android I could build entire AC carriers, which I cannot duplicate on my iPad Air. Graphics UI is one of Jundroo's expertise areas.
never mind, btw is that you in the picture? @TheLatentImage
@Rohan I'm not sure that I understand your reasoning buddy. Could you explain what you mean? Being able to nudge on mobile would only enhance the experience in my opinion. I don't see how adding that would ruin it, plus if someone doesn't want to use it they could ignore that it's there and continue to do things like everyone on mobile does now.
I agree with this. I'm working on an F-15C and it's taken a long time to get the front 1/3 finishef.
