The new Version 2018.06.22 of AppGameKit (aka AGK2) focuses this time primarly on bugfixing. The Changelog for the current version:
AppGameKit Update! Version 2018.06.22 Released This new version of AppGameKit brings all these new features and tweaks: Translations The IDE now supports Google translated texts for Simplified Chinese, Japanese and Russian languages. Android Fixed Android apps that set ARCore as required being rejected by Google due to missing AndroidManifest.xml feature Fixed tapping on notifications from the app whilst the app is open on Android causing a blank screen or image corruption Android expansion files can now be used to store 3D objects, OGG and WAV files, and any file opened with OpenToRead Use the prefix “expansion:” to load files from expansion files, e.g. OpenToRead(“expansion:MyFile.txt”), the file will be extracted from the expansion file to the write folder then opened as normal Subsequent requests to open “expansion:MyFile.txt” will read the file directly from the write folder without re-extracting it, unless the file has been deleted iOS iOS will now automatically change the app orientation if SetOrientationAllowed is used when the device is in an orientation that is no longer allowed IDE Added check box in the IDE preference to produce 64-bit executables on Windows instead of 32-bit executables Fixed an error about a missing games_app_id entry in the values.xml file when exporting for Amazon if the Google Play App ID field has a value even if it is greyed out Steam Windows users can now post their projects to the Steam Workshop and download shared projects with these new menu items.
