screen rotation

edited April 2015 in MPQ Suggestions and Feedback
I would like to humbly request that a GUI is built that will rotate on phones and tablets. I am a long time player of the game that is starting to see burn in where the circles are that contain the characters symbols.

The device I am speaking of is a Galaxy Note 3.

    It will never happen. It's been suggested many times over the past year or more, and when there's been a response from the devs it's that it's too hard. I'd love it to be landscape on my tablet, the landscape Steam version looks so much better.

    From what I've read they'd basically have to recode the game from scratch.

    I'm ok with that.

    Barring the recode mention; which is likely the case...

    The core game board is an 8x8 square of tiles, so rotation there seems like it could be possible. The game board fills the center of the landscape orientation and the teams are given room on either side for portraits and possibly a way to show AP levels and/or power availability. Elements of the Steam UI could be repurposed so some of the resource files could be re-used.
