    First off, great work!
    Secondly, I wanted to say that I do actually use the undo button quite regularly, and was wondering whether or not it would be possible to make the back button act as undo.

    Thirdly, I was wondering whether it would be possible to make it configurable somehow so that the user can fill the empty space at the sides of the screen with perhaps larger buttons. I understand that this may not be possible.

    Anyways, keep up the good work.

    Cool. Would be great if somebody just posted the already compiled copy (the APK file) rather than just linking to source and telling those who want to use it to compile it themselves.

    Awesome. I always wanted to see TPT on Android. Great work!

     

    By the way, how did you guys measure the performance? Just with a blank screen? I am wondering because my Nexus 5 drops down to 14 fps with 3 solids taking about 1/3 of the screen. I guess it's time to overclock to 2.8 GHz again. ;)

     You can side load on iOS (without jailbreak), I believe:

    I used the screen recorder quite a bit.

    Add stickman controls. That is all.

    >: how would stickman controls work.

    Maybe you would have to click on the stickman to activate something, I don't know.

     Possibly some kind of menu button to bring up a pair of joysticks

    A new update to the android port is now released (version 0.3, build 102)
    Download link: The-Powder-Toy-0.3.apk

    Changelog:
    Update to the latest source (a little newer than version 32.3 of my mod)
    Checks http://starcatcher.us/TPT for updates on startup. You can turn this off in settings. If there is an update, it will open the browser so you can download a new apk.
    You can hold down on the open browser / save buttons to use local saves instead (so, local saves are actually usable now)
    The scrolly menu icons are now each 3 pixels taller.
    You can now easily use the element search, just scroll all the way down to the bottom, past the deco menu, and the search is there.
    Fix "OK" button in simulation options, you can stop reporting this bug now >:
    Add clipboard copy/paste, you can now actually use the save ID copy buttons.
    Signs are editable again (this was a bug in my mod at the time of the last release)
    Fix mouse drawing sometimes not working inside the zoom window (seemed to fix itself after some drawing rewrites)


    I probably won't be able to compile a new version of this for a while. Hopefully no major bugs come up :P. I didn't have time to try and make Newtonian Gravity work again, but a lot of other bugs were fixed at least.
