Locked Perspective

Post by Selenus »

Hi! I hope it's not rude to suggest a feature without really contributing, but I would love to request a small addition to the preferences. If there is a simple way to lock the perspective (portrait vs. landscape) it would make playing AT much more comfortable. Thanks for considering this!

Welcome to the forum!
(wait, i just said that)

:lol:

and, no way - that's not rude at all!!!
it's exactly what we are looking for.

:D

there is an easy fix for your problem...
there are settings on your phone that you can toggle on/off.

when i play AT, sometimes i disable the phones ability to rotate the screen with the phone.
Settings -> Display -> Auto-Rotate Screen [x]

i have Beautiful Widgets, and they have toggle switches...
there is a switch for this feature, making it a simple tap to lock / unlock the screen.

(then i turn it back on when im buying massive amounts of potions)
if you flip the screen while in the shop, it restocks the vendor.

Nyktos, you're my hero! I never knew I could lock this globally, I really should have checked first, but this makes using my phone MUCH easier for many things. Funny I never realized the rotate thing works at vendors though, I always just talked to them over and over.

Anyways, thanks a lot!

That's nice, but I'd like to set this once in AT and then forget about it :)

yeah, after giving it some thought... i agree!

especially because the "shop trick" wont work when the interface is changed...

he plans on replenishing stock at timed intervals, as opposed to being able to keep buying things repeatedly.

But then I'd like to be able to buy much greater amounts. The standard amount should be at least 200 for flesh, cooked meat and the like. Replenishing after an hour of playtime ...
