VFS::map_common(): failed to map "common"

not too sure what this means if it can't find an actual map or the common folder but haven't found anything on it


It means it cannot find the 'common' folder.

Uninstall and install should help.

Greetings.
Today one of the Russian-speaking users pointed out a small problem with the Android version.  Only OpenXcom UFO Patch is present in apk OXCE.  Whereas there is no OpenXcom TFTD Patch and it must be installed by the user himself.
Therefore, please - add OpenXcom TFTD Patch in the next version of OXCE on Android.

It requires changes in the Java code of the Android wrapper.
(or in other words, it's not part of the openxcom source code)

I could probably make the changes, I have decent experience with Java, but I have no experience with Android development... no idea what IDE could be used, or how to test my changes.

I'd recommend asking sfalexrog, if he would be willing to make the changes.
Or if anyone else can make a PR, I'd merge it...

Unfortunately sfalexrog hasn’t visited the Russian forum for a year, but he hasn’t been here even longer.  Therefore, all hope is for someone else's help.

Copying the data files directly into openxcom/UFO(in my phone) from computer instead of using the app fixed it for me.
Thank you.

There does not appear to be a way to enable Debug mode in Geoscape, once the config file is changed. There is no way to send Ctrl-D, or similar, nor is there a button that I can locate.

yes, it is not available, all openxcom devs do the debugging on PCs

Inconvenient, but understandable. I was planning to use my phone as a separate ufopedia reference tool

Hello.  I'm probably not the first to talk about this, but the android version really lacks the ability to emulate right click and middle click in non-combat mode.  should we expect such a feature?

hi

likely not... I don't feel like adding the emulation buttons to every single GUI in openxcom

first of all, there's 100+ GUIs, that's a lot of work... secondly, the emulation buttons take up a lot of space, it would look bad on many GUIs

what about a long press or a second finger press?  a long press works on the base screen, which means it is possible.  I really miss the middle click on the science screen and the middle and right click on the buy/sell screen
