Mobile Version
« Topic Start: May 27, 2011, 03:01:23 AM »
Just a suggestion, I tend to check my Battlemaster during the day pretty frequently on my Blackberry.  I'd just like there to be a bit more mobile browser friendly, the status bar generally gets in the way, and the lower portion of the left side menu get's chopped off.

It's minor but would figure I'd see what people thought.

try mobile.battlemaster.org

But even then, the bottom bar gets in the way sometimes. It's fine on my iPod though.

I thought it was m.battlemaster.org.

If you know someone who designs mobile websites, let us know, 'cause we devs aren't really experts in that.

We have plans to improve the mobile version, but they're not high-priority plans.

I use http://m.battlemaster.org from my Android (htc G2) and it works great. The links do tend to be a bit small and close together, but the mini-trackpad really helps with that.

http://m.battlemaster.org has been a great improvement from trying to use the normal site on my iphone.

So, just out of interest, how long have I been plugging away on the phat site needlessly? >.< When did BM go mobile?

It's been quite a while. AJ hacked up the mobile site last year or something like that. So, maybe more than a year that it's been available. It was a quick hack, and there are some issues with it. Still, much better than trying to run the full site on a mobile device. If we had an interface designer that really knew how to do mobile stuff, I'd imagine they could really improve it.

Just to say, now I've had some time with it, I bloody love the BM mobile site. Absolutely no complaints at all. It's beautiful.

I definitely think the fact that BattleMaster has a mobile site should be flagged up somewhere on the main one.

Someone should tell AJ this. ;)
