Android problem

I recently started playing The Mama World on Android and I've noticed a problem with the use of the keyboard. When I type, the Manaplus app isn't recognizing the spacebar inputs making everything typed a long string of words without spaces.

Also, the latest release of the Manaplus app is not available for download. I have downloaded it via the Google Play, Amazon Apps, and directly from the TMW site, but only the 1.9 version seems to be the only one that seems to download for Android.

Other than that, everything else on the Android app appears the working.

Thank You.

I once asked 4144 about that, he said something about "don't use Google Keyboard" and marked it as "won't fix" almost immediately after.

I also vaguely recall some difficulties in the flow to make the Android app. For example, the fact Google no longer accepts APKs. We haven't tried to build the Android version, and if 4144 has not tried to push version 2.1 to Android either, it likely is broken (and with no plans to fix it anytime soon).

The problem seems to be appearing when you type on the Google keyboard, kindly use the default keyboard.

There's no such thing as "default keyboard" in some devices, you know.

Google Keyboard IS the de facto default keyboard for some brands.

There are other keyboard options too like swiftkey and others.

You are using the last known version of that client. There is a fork of it called ManaVerse, our official client, but I'm unaware of any mobile app for it and also doubt it will be made anytime soon, if ever. We're not opposed to it. We just don't have anyone to do it yet. If you're tech savvy, it might be possible to build the android package using the built-in configure options, if you wanted to try compiling. That sounds like a nice ol headache to me. i never tried it, but you would still have the same issues anyway.
