Thought ht stated earlier the only flying with the android was for bomber control..

I think newbies will die quicker on a phone screen than they are currently on a pc or in vr..

Right, but that was a P51 taking off, not a bomber. That's why I was asking.

Simple, the code that decides what can be flown or used on phone has not been written, currently I am working on how controls and menu items will work along with graphic detail that a phone would support. The take off was with no controls fully auto pilot.

Understand how far it is to get to this point, first all ah had to be converted to 64 bit, this is fairly extensive because of the twizzling i do to make loading fast. It's why aces high starts so quickly. All user data in call backs that used pointers had to be changed. All builders had to be updated. Next had to complete the vulcan graphics engine this was about 60% complete when work stalled in 2021. Then finally had to port to android.

Is the android version going to be a free tool to try to get them into the real game?

When Vulcan was mentioned years ago I thought it was to improve the pc version..

Didn't realize that. Makes sense now. Thanks for explaining.

PlayStation and Xbox do not include official drivers, software development kits (SDKs), or operating system support for the Vulkan graphics API.

PlayStation consoles use Sony's proprietary APIs (such as GNM/GNM+), while Xbox consoles use Microsoft's Direct3D (DX12).

Game developers who use Vulkan for PC, Linux, or the Nintendo Switch must write a separate rendering backend or port their game's graphics code to use PlayStation's or Xbox's native APIs before releasing on those consoles.

Will the port to Vulkan make it easier to run AH on a Linux PC in future?
