Improving Mobile TPT

    Have not played TPT mobil in many many years, but if we have a cursor that we could move by touching the screen would be nice to pin point, along with a button to place elements it would make it viable to build intricate things.

    think of it as like a hotkey to turn it on and off, and it puts an arrow on the screen, and moves equally but not directly where you toucht the screen.

    Ah so like, you click somewhere on the screen lets say 100px away, and it moves it 10px?

    @tommers (View Post) The brush circle you see whenever you tap or stroke is the cursor; I don't know about saving the elements you want in one place though. You can see and ask for more information here if you have something to ask but not suggest.

    I see you want a cursor in Android TPT to be visible at all times. I found an Android mod where you can actually have a cursor like a PC; it may satisfy one of your desires.

     you misunderstood them, they meant another cursror where you click places and it moves it more precisely.

    @velsuki (View Post) I edited my post as you replied; I don't know about the "precise movement" but I know an Android mod that enables a user to have a cursor as if the mobile device is a PC. That's all I can do to help.

    I think they meant a cursor offset or sensitivity multiplier. Either the object is placed at a certain offset from the touch point, or dragging the finger results in the cursor moving by only a fraction of the normal amount.

    The bad side is that it isnt like the cursor youd expect to be. You dont get left or right click, nor a proper scroll-ability (that's 2 arrows, up and down which dont work good for powder toy). The cursor itself isnt the most responsive. Afterall, its labeled for 'improving accessibility for users with reduced dexterity'

    i mean like cursor will open at the center of the scree, and you can move it by using the screen anywhere, and it will move in sync, so you can actually see exactly where it is and be precise
