RimDroid 0.3.1

⚠️ RimDroid is still in beta. Device compatibility and performance vary, especially with large colonies, DLC, and heavy mod lists.

RimDroid is made by one person in evenings and weekends. There are no ads and no paywall. If the launcher gave you a colony in your pocket, a coffee on Ko-Fi helps me keep going, so your phone gets fixed faster. Thank you!

🚑 Express release: RimWorld 1.7 build 4995

RimWorld 1.7 updated to build 4995 on the unstable branch around October 31, and that build crashed at startup on RimDroid. This release fixes it.

🆕 What's new on RimWorld 1.7

• Going to the background no longer closes the game. Press Home, switch apps or turn the screen off, then come back to your colony.
• Drag the map with a finger.
• Humanoid Alien Races works.
• IsoRim Waylith works, so you can play RimWorld in 3D on your phone.
• Vanilla Expanded Framework runs.
• Mods with their own shaders work better.
• Older Adreno phones: a startup crash on some Vulkan 1.1 drivers is fixed.

🛠 Also fixed

• News on the home screen opens the right page.
• The cached game zip is removed after a new instance is created, which frees up storage.
• Mods that move the mouse cursor now work.

⚠️ Known issues on RimWorld 1.7

• Adaptive Storage Framework doesn't work yet.
• Prepatcher features aren't available. Mods that need them may not work fully.
• 1.7 is still a test version from Ludeon, so a new build can break things again.
