1.2.1 breaks Droid TTY? #49

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago
How can you reproduce the bug?
1. Open the game on a Droid 
2. One example, open the inventory, you'll see it is replicated twice on the 
screen, with the second list being cut off.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Scenario 1 - Inventory list: Expect to see an inventory list appear on top of 
the dungeon map. Instead, two inventory lists appear side by side covering the 
whole screen.

Scenario 2 - Messages: Messages that appear in the upper left of the screen no 
long seem to be overwriting themselves. Press 'w' and you shold get messages 
like this:

What do you want to wield? [- a or ?*] x
You don't have that object.--More--
What do you want to wield? [- a or ?*]

Instead it appears as:
What do you want to wield? [- a or ?*] You don't have that object. What do you 
want to
wield? [- a or ?*]
Note: x was pressed, but was overwritten by "You don't have that object."

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
1.2.1 on Android 2.1 for Droid

Please provide any additional information below.

The two inventory list thing I believe is some bug, I've seen some stuff like 
it but it generally doesn't happen on my Nexus. But, the facts that the menus 
are full screen and that the message updates use two lines with word wrapping 
are features, not bugs - this is done to make the game much more usable for 
people that like to use a large font, or have a phone without a physical 
keyboard, who may want to play the game in portrait mode where they can't see 
the whole TTY display. If you have a physical keyboard and want to play in 
landscape orientation, you can find a "UI Mode" option in the Menu, and change 
it from "Android TTY" to "Pure TTY". This should make the UI work like it did 
before 1.2.1. Hopefully this helps you.

Maybe I'll still keep this bug open though, as perhaps the "x" in your 
description above should be displayed, and there is that occasional 
side-by-side issue that I need to track down.
