Tips for Android laptops and Chromebooks

This post is a compilation of the recommended configuration to play the Android version of the game in a PC or laptop able to run Android apps.

While testing the upcoming 0.32 version, I had the chance to try the game in a Chromebook and it was a terrible experience because of input issues. However, I hope the latest fixes will provide the same experience as the other ports of the game.

This is how you configure the Android app to look the same as the other tiles ports with the default configuration.

  1. Disable the virtual keyboard in the launcher

Keyboard: No keyboard

  1. Edit the init file and add these options

tile_use_small_layout = false
tile_viewport_scale = 1.0
tile_map_pixels = 3
tile_font_crt_size = 15
tile_font_stat_size = 16
tile_font_msg_size = 14
tile_font_tip_size = 15
tile_font_lbl_size = 14

Please let me know if this post is useful to you. It may be worth it to make this configuration automatic in the future.

By the way, the Android app registers itself as an app rather than a game. This affects the storage usage of games shown in Android’s Settings app. A minor thing that has annoyed me a little bit because I’m a perfectionist lol
