Not XXL, its the original classic version from Amiga, from the resolution its close to the iPhone screen (480x320) Amiga had 320x240. we used the extra space for some larger buttons to help with the finger touch and for the 2d simulation.

Wird es eine deutsche Version oder eine Testversion (der englischen) geben?
Ich weiß nicht, ob meine Englischkenntnisse ausreichen um die jetzt erhältliche vernünftig zu spielen.

Gruß, und tolle Arbeit die Ihr macht!

Eine deutsche Version ist geplant, wird aber noch ein wenig dauern, da ich erst mal abwarten will wie es so anlaeuft.

Ich denke man kann es in englisch auch schon ganz gut spielen.

EIne testversion kann man ja hier herunterladen für den PC spielte sich vom Ablauf genauso (die wpoc version) - die test/demo version kann man eine STunde pro Spiel verwenden (Mehrsprachig)

small bugreport:

When a berth points exactly to the left side the tolerance for berthing ist +0 .. +10 degree for the ship instead of -10 .. +10 degree.

that is turn the ship a little bit to starboard.

For all other berths its no problem, you can also berth in the wrong direction (180 degree) which also solves the tolerance.

by the way, the old amiga version only accepted 0..+5 degree tolerance (which we changed already for the iPhone but not completely).

update will come soon, also some other nice enhancements. Smile

Hi!

I am actually wondering if you can play the iPhone edition against the computer? I used to play PoC years ago and now bought it from the AppStore and when I start the game, it asks for the number of players. But when I go for 1, there is no competitor in the game. And if I go for say 2 players, both are human-controlled, so it seems as if there is no AI integrated in the game, which is slightly weird as you most often play alone on the iPhone and you will then want to play against computer-controlled competitors...

Is there any way to bring the computer into play?

Thanks!

at the moment its like on the amiga version and on the poc classic version for pc, all humans there was no AI,

but for the future we can do something on this I have it on the wish list (as pocxxl has such a feature). Its on my update wish list.
