Hello, I was thinking how cool it would be if agk had a core function within it to detect what device it is running on and then changing it's performance based on that device. An example of what I am saying is...

if you have agk on a PC it will run on the highest graphics, multi threading, 64-bit, allocate more memory, etc. while on my iphone it will do less of the major functions for better performance.

I do not really know if agk has this type of feature in it or not, but I think it would be useful for agk to have it for future reference.

sov the game creator!

There is a GetDeviceName command which is pretty self explanatory. Lee will soon be giving us the ability to specify the number of threads for AppGameKit to use (or it will choose based on the device). Check the App Game Kit facebook page for more details.

Quite right Mr V! If we're lucky, the multithreading will spread to other areas of AGK.
