AGK's editboxes have always had issues. Often on Android, input won't be accepted (usually depends on the Android keyboard being used, for example Swype input isn't accepted). It also lacks real OS UI editbox features like copy, paste, select, etc.

The solution would either be to make your own keyboard (I believe Naphier posted some code for this awhile back) or you could use my AppGameKit mod to utilize Google Play Game Services (which don't use AGK's editboxes) for leaderboards (and achievements) you can find it here http://forum.thegamecreators.com/?m=forum_view&t=211806&b=41

Certainly will be using this in my next game HockeyKid Thank you.
I have posted my small solution as well now.

Kayak Escape! on IndieDB

Kayak Escape! on SlideDB

Hoping to get a little more exposure with IndieDB.

I'm going to take a look at your code and see if it'll be easy enough to put in.

I was also planning to do this with my next project.

Hey! So Kayak Escape has had a decent run on Android, hit 600 downloads and ad revenue is actually pretty steady with over 300 active players(according to google).

So I decided to make the game open source, for fun.

Download the game files HERE

The game has been converted to AGK2 and it will not run out of the box. I've deleted the string addresses for my high score tables and admob. You can either delete those lines or '`' them so you can run the game. Pretty sure you can leave the highscore addresses blank and it'll just show blank scores during gameplay.

The source code and all media is under the Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License.

Hope someone learns something. The code is pretty well broken up into sections with lots of comments, and allot of it could be improved. Deadline = get it done now!

If you have any questions about sections of code or graphics let me know.

Very generous of you, THANKS!
I love looking at example code from cool games.

I see this kind of statement a lot, and I am wondering what that involves exactly.
What do you have to do to convert v1 code to v2 code?

Lol, hit File>Import AppGameKit File. Luckily I didn't have to do anything for it to work. Compiled and ran first try. So I bet it'll work in AGK1 too, but don't hold your breath.

and here I was thinking it was like a chore with 29 things to do or something.
Sounds easy enough that I shouldn't have put off making the move.

Thanks

Not much at all. They changed the way "mod" works, so if you have any instances of that operator it won't compile immediately, but it's very easy to fix and should only take 30 seconds

Ok, I guess I will have to figure that one out then, because I do use "mod" (remainders) in my current project, which is my last in V1.

Thanks
