yep, i sent it to apple and then realized it was crashing on some iphones... so i had to cancel and wait for unity
in any case, don't blame the fox or the horse, as amazing as it sounds, it helped me figure out those weird random bomb explosions because i had to go all over the physics system to add them

hi zup last night i played a player i know is on pc after much chat in our own forum (various squads) i was told it wasnt the pc player rather than the device they use to control the game IE joystick or game pad some of these players have huge turn advantage .also i was told by a few players that when they are dogfighting me i seem so slow in turns and its seems to be for android devices. i tested this and went in on my ipad mini wow its like night and day seems android is very slow why is this?

Yeah he seems not to be much of a fan of unity... seems the simplicity in programming Unity make it more compicated in the long run if not know exactly how doing it... as i read it...


Great link to follow the patch releases.. hope they release the right patch soon.

unity3d.com/unity/qa/patch-releases


Yeah and I even have access to alpha and beta releases that are not public. So i get them ahead of almost everyone else. But they just haven't done anything for 2 or 3 weeks already. And some serious stuff I reported at the beginning of december, they did not fix on the patch release of december 22nd. So i'm basically stuck waiting.

probably specific to your android device. the code is exactly the same for android and apple so there is nothing different on my end. But the device has different hardware and sometimes it's faster/slower or even broken. I have no control over any of that. I even remember someone that had an android device that turned at double the speed that everyone else. The gyroscope was messed up for anything related to the GPS but for the game it was wonderful to him. And nope, i cannot fix that. Otherwise every hardware manufacturer would buy me with a few millions if i can solve hardware by software remotely. And I accept millions happily. Just in case you make an offer.

The problem with zebraup was he got a new device that they don't sell on spain yet: Amazon Kindle 10''. For whatever reason, the graphic chip on that kindle is different than in all others, so it wasn't that it worked differently or slower... it just didn't load at all. Luckily I was travelling to the USA that week and got one to figure out what was going on. Again, Unity had to fix it but I was able to do a workaround myself for that one.

Something went wrong with windows 10 update.

Freezing of screen and planes jumping from one place to another are occurring frequently. Kindly look into the matter and if possible, make new update mandatory for all as different version may also be the issue.

Just for your info, Microsoft has recently issued an update too.

does the crashes happen on windows 10 from the windows store, or is it the version from steam?
the steam version has always been more stable as far as i know, due to not been affected by windows updates so much

I am flying with the .78 update from google play on an samsung galaxy tab a

On capture the carrier missions when i land on carrier there is no brake and my plane gets swept overboard or into part of ship crashing me. On 2 occasions the tip of my wing caught on corner and countdown would start,my movement bounced wheels up enough to restart timer, eventually tho u get swept off lol

Controls seem different now. It takes very large arm and body movement to get any plane movement that once could be done in a chair with minor movement .

Bullets and aiming seems different i cant elaborate since im a bad shot on this game but some rounds that clearly look like hits dont register at all, on planes,zep r bombers, and rounds that look and feel like misses score hits.

I know its new update and all this will happen just lettin ya know

oh the joy of Unity updates... they fix 10, break 20...
working through all reports little by little, right now trying to figure out what's up with win10 (steam seems to be ok so if you have a chance, get it from there)
android: try to calibrate again on the settings, maybe that fixes it
ipad: unity issue, reported it to them. on iPhone seems ok so far

Iphone, game opens upside down from the way it always has, now have to learn new way to take screenshots,etc. no big deal, eyes are too old to play on that anyway.
Ipad, game opens upside down, putting volume controls on bottom where thet are constantly being bumped causing volume bar yo appear in middle of screen. Really really bad for dogfighting, bombing, anything. Also have the same screen as walleye when bombing. That goes away after bomb hits but that is a variable amount of time depending on altitude.
Kindle, seems ok but also upside down.

the game was rotated at the request of Apple since the iPhone x has that top bar that blocks vision. Now the "throttle" bar is on that side, so it had to be rotated 180. It just takes a bit getting used to but it's the same. The only other option is to have apple putting that thing on the bottom of the phone or not having it, like every other phone on earth.

Well if it keeps happening i won't be able to play because I am constantly bumping the volume as it is now, and then I have to try and find the other one to fix it back.

How many iphone x are playing? Not many i bet. How many ipads? A lot i bet. Rotate if and when iPhone x makes a big enough appearance. Fix it back for ipads.

As I said, Apple asked or the update doesn’t go through. It’s not my choice. I couldn’t care less if it’s played landscape left or right or upside down while watching tv and holding a finger spinner. And since iPads are Apple devices that’s what it is right now. I was also happy the way I originally designed it.

i have an idea. I'm going to ask Apple if it would be ok if I allow you guys to switch controls. So the throttle goes to the left and the chat box to the right if you want to (on iPhone x). That way for people on the new phone it will still look ok. I don't see why they would say no to that.
