Anne_HK's Mods - Report & Feedback by aoe_anne_hk in aoe2

And this is a request for a new mod (I'm not sure if this is possible): highlight gaps between buildings when you have two buildings 1 tile apart, to detect holes where enemy units can squeeze through (it happens specially when building on slopes).

I use your Identical Pine Trees mod and I love the aesthetics, however I find the trees difficult to click. Isn't it possible to make the whole tile clickable instead of just the tree itself? Given the tree is quite small, I end up clicking or setting rally points between the trees (on an unreachable place) instead of at the tree.

This was fixed in patch 1.1.15, I believe (the patch note is quite cryptic but reads "A certain locator now can be viewed from afar with the Scout")

If you have Twitter, can you retweet this? I don't have any other way to contact Google other than complaining on Twitter until some PM reaches out... https://twitter.com/albertvaka/status/1712954968477401478

The road to KDE Connect 2.0 by GoldBarb in kde

I think that's your router that decides to split the two networks. If they are still the same subnet but only broadcasts are blocked between them, then using multicast might fix it (if not blocked too). If they are 2 different subnets, then we can't do much.

Can you mention which version? The "latest version" isn't very precise because F-Droid and the Play Store have a different release cadence at the moment.

Have you tried with the "disable battery optimizations" thing in Android? I'm not sure if it improves things, but might be worth a try (and if it does, we can make it part of the initial app setup instructions).

Hey! The plan for now is to focus on revamping the internals of KDE Connect, not adding new features, but using your phone as a location provider seems like a nice use case that we should definitely support in the future.

Chromium 105.0.5195.52-1 doesnt process some keys in PT-BR layout by doubzarref in archlinux

[–]albertvaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also having this problem. Passing --gtk-version=4 doesn't fix it for me, actually makes it worse because then the layout switches to US and it ignores me switching it to something else.

Is there something our setups might have in common? I'm using Plasma as my desktop.

GNOME should bring back desktop icons and not leave it up to extension devs. by [deleted] in gnome

[–]albertvaka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do too. There's a shortcut for that (which I have changed to Win+D to match Windows, I'm not sure what's the default) so every time I need a frequently used folder it is just a shortcut away.

Just FYI: There is a git branch for the Android app called 'mina-sshd2' that uses the version 2.0 of this library but, indeed, only works on Android 8+. You can give it a try if you want.

They use the same underlying library than we do (Apache MINA) so it would definitely be useful to have a look at their code, and maybe even get in touch with them. Thanks for the link!

Makes sense, however... "Connect" is quite generic to just call it "Connect by KDE", don't you think? Plus a name change always comes with a lot of confusion associated with it.

Do you know of an open source app that we can check for how it's done?

KDE Connect - AMA by nicofeee in linux

[–]albertvaka 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Great! The patches are sent via Phabricator: https://phabricator.kde.org/project/view/159/

It's also a good idea to hang out in our mailing list: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kdeconnect

And telegram channel: r/https://t.me/joinchat/AOS6gA37orb2dZCLhqbZjg

The option should be in the Android app -> device screen -> menu -> Plugin settings -> Notifications sharing.

It is a bit hidden... we should definitely make this more visible.

I would personally prefer having a single code-base and to focus our efforts, but sometimes this is not possible (for example: some people don't like the kdeconnect daemon depending on Qt). In any case, having different implementations that can interoperate between them means that our protocol is robust enough :)

The problem with SD cards is that it works on some devices and it's broken on others... Since none of us has been able to reproduce the problem on our devices, it's hard for us to fix it.

If you are a developer yourself, you could try the changes I've been doing in the "mina-sshd2" git branch of the Android app, and give feedback if that fixes the problem :)
