2019-07-12 10:50:16 UTC @ralph had silly thought but mayhaps even op idea. Controller support for SN? Cuz there are controllers that you can connect to phone. And I got one today.
I am mainly curious how much you’d be up to that idea, that way I could also work on UI redesign with idea for controller support as well as how users could animate using controller.
Stick Nodes®
A stickfigure animation app created for mobile devices!
Create your own stickman animations on your Android or iOS device!
Ps. helps animating on small screens also relieves that cramping feeling of using such phones.
or even better, mouse support for ipadOS 🤑🤑🤑🤑
*illuminati*
Im sorry, what?
Ok ok fair point where you are saying about how apps have controller support so stick nodes should, but its an animation app not a game, navigating around with a controller sounds very tedious and gey.
I actually have concept in mind that can work better and be less tedious. It depends how the UI would be done etc.
Thats all well and good but whats the point of controller support, why not something more sensical and effective like keyboard, I just think it’s not worth the time.
Cuz keyboard isn’t gonna be sensical and effective-
how do you want to animate with keyboard-
You can press buttons to select certain options, with a controller it’s more difficult, have you ever navigated around somewhere like youtube with a controller? Its tedious and slow, keyboard is quick and has multiple buttons, also a mouse available.
You need keyboard AND mouse then. That’s the issue. Tho, if UI is designed with idea for mobile devices, consoles and so on it becomes actually good. Hecc, some things are better with controller than touch screen.
Remember I was trying to design new UI thingy?
If controller support was a possibility I could design it in a way it would be also comfortable to use on touchscreen and controller.
Well ok than
👍
GameCube Controller support
So… Is that a maybe-
*Waiting with pen and paper in hand entire time waiting for anwser to work on layout*
boi don’t make me feel bad where you sketch out an entire design document and I have to politely nod and smile while I casually place it into the paper shredder
ain’t don’t nobody wanna move stickfigures with controllers
don’t get me wrong it’s interesting but
I have so many more things with greater priority you know?
you know
ye i know.
but we also need new UI, especially begginer friendly. I have people not knowing how to use the app on daily basis and imagine how many people there are that don’t even use social media.
So trying to come up with design that would just work. And controller thing is basically additional thing I would take into consideration.
nah you right
last updated i wanted to add a tutorial – either some kind of interactive thing in the app, or a short youtube video
probs gonna do a video
gotta be really short and to the point, quick simple “here’s how to add a figure”, “add a frame”, “make a new figure”, etc
Speaking of tutorials wanted to ask if during beta when there’s enough stable bulid I could do movieclip tutorials so people wouldn’t be as confused when it gets released-
yeah sure, that would actually be a great help
you and heckray are gonna get the update once MCs are done (I have more to do before the update is done) so you can ruin my life with the bugs and whatnot
“ralph can i pls beta test too”
nah, love you tho
