It's pretty simple: players should only be able to lay 2-3 bombs at a time.
He said 4 directions. If it's actually diagonal like the PC is, I don't see the problem.

The problem is that it runs like **** even without bombs or arrows cluttering the (adjacent levels) on the GMap. With only like 5 other players you get extreme slowdowns, even if none of them are doing anything. It's very annoying.

I ponder if the slowdown is caused by lack of polygon-pumping or CPU power.

On G1 or G3?

In between, lol.

The iPod 2G.

That might be the problem. The difference in graphic rendering between G3 and the older generations is pretty large, and in fact a lot of apps are being developed exclusively for the G3 because of that... or so I remember reading. Graal just might be one of those apps.

The 2G runs very well on it, until you introduce a mass amount of players on maps. Even insides run pretty well with 10 people or so in it.

I see no reason why the screen should have to render beyond it's limits at all, so the inside vs outside thing is null.

It has to do calculations, though, for adjacent levels, but players sitting alone, unmoving, shouldn't require any.

The iPhone virtual keyboard is exactly that: a virtual keyboard. When you put your finger on the up button, it is sending virtual keyboard events that emulate a physical keyboard button. When you sit your finger between two direction buttons and both of them are highlighted, it is sending virtual keyboard events for both buttons.

Thanks to the multi touch technology, which allows touches at more then 1 point.

Don't like updating your apps, huh? :p

I have a problem, I'm trying to purchase the Player Customization, but it says I cannot purchase it and that I have to create a new account in the Sandbox environnement...

I have no idea what to do :(

I am a layman, but I guess they do the update serverside, so they don't need to upload new versions when they update something.

delete this if you want
I think he means the notifications that are in the bottom right corner :p

Aww sure. I'm sooo stupid



....sometimes... Thx. :D

Graal holds 2 levels in each direction from the player, and I don't know if they render all that or not - if you notice, drag the screen and you see more. I don't know if they render all of that at once - but either way, lag exists when you're on the map with a lot of players near you.
