Re: Proof of Concept: Android App Directly Integrated into Existing MUd
Note: As this is posted on the advanced mud concepts forum, I'm assuming you're looking for feedback and discussion.
From the comments about the interface I was expecting something like , but this looks far more like BlowTorch (which has also been , although personally I'd find it annoying to need a separate app for each mud, particularly if - like yours - they have a price tag). Are you planning to extend the graphical support in the future?
Which communication protocol are you using? I couldn't detect GMCP, MSDP, ATCP, ZMP, or indeed any other telnet options except ECHO. Is it something custom that's being initiated on the client side? If so, why not go with one of the established protocols that are already supported by other mud clients?
No MCCP? That would a deal-breaker for me for a mobile client.
One of the screenshots showed orange text, and I certainly agree that a modern client should support more than basic 16-colour ANSI. Do you use xterm 256 colours, MXP 24-bit colour, or something else?
