Convoy Trucking App

[Supreme]

Hi all,


Soon I am gonna buy a (hopefully) nice Android phone; Samsung Galaxy Plus or Samsung Galaxy S2
I am planning to make a Convoy Trucking App(lication).

First it will be an Android-app, i still haz a iPod so later i could make a IPhone-app.

Please let me know what you think.
And what could be nice features; don't make it to hard!

players online list (idk if it's possible) and search engine (u can search player, his score, missions etc.) but i think u need some files from Mick for that

Better try to make a desktop gadget that can show you the server status. That would be more useful than an iPhone app.

So simple, it could even be associated to the point of where it's just 3 lines

Ping blah blah convoytrucking
If response < 600 then print("Its up")
Else Print(" Its down")

Besides, the app would be pointless, nobody would use it unless you're completely addicted to CVT, And even if it did exist, it's just pointless.

Also, you need a mac to create apps for the iOS

Need a mac... Sounds like a job for Deputy!

Not really needed, don't see how it could be used.

I have no problem checking CVT with my S2, using standard web browser, so no app needed..

[Supreme]

I see people say it's useless. So I decided I won't waste my time for an app.
I will make some other apps, but I will post that later!

Don't let a few people deter you from making a Convoy Trucking App, they're are quite a few who would use it I bet.

But yeah, feel free to try and make the app, its always a learning experience, but don't bother with iOS apps, since you need a mac to build the .ipa... (Also, I think it's like 50 dollars for the developer package every year or so)

[RaceRX]

id use it. If its free :X

[deejayy2k]

i would do it just to say you have done it, use it as experience, i would probably use it if i had one of these fancy phones. you could maybe put stuff in like account transfers, houses for sale and things like that.

Yes indeed, the only way you can make applications for apple devices is with OSX, because you need Xcode. It is impossible to code an application for iOS on Windows. But you can always download a virtual machine if your pc can handle that.

But you can create Android applications on Windows with the Android SDK. I've tried it, but my knowledge of C# wasn't good enough.
