Pathbuilder 2e IOS Testflight
🕑 Added 2025-03-13 09:05:34 +0000 UTCHello,
As ever thank you for your support.
An "early access" version of Pathbuilder 2e IOS is now available on Testflight (a beta testing app you can install on your IOS devices). The app isn't finished but I thought I'd let you have a play around with it.
You can sign up here: https://testflight.apple.com/join/JCb47qKJ
Please don't share that link to non patrons, I want to keep the number of testers relatively low and also provide a benefit to my supporters.
I'm still working on the base functionality of the app, so at the moment it is just mainly a general test. Please look at out for the following:
Can you make a character (excluding pets which isn't in yet) as you would normally. Please add portraits as I had a couple of crashes around that.
Saving/loading working as expected. Please make copies of any important characters on the web version before opening on IOS. Remember it is test so bad things can happen. Also - you will lose your local database when the app leaves Testflight, so please don't get too attached to anything saved locally.
Restoring app from backstate. In other words, you're working on a character, you go off to watch videos of funny cats, you come back to Pathbuilder. Does it resume normally? It may sometimes take you back to the front page (if the device needs the memory).
Do dialogs open as expected.
Does the purchase/unlock flow work correctly. You won't be charged for anything as it is all in a sandbox.
Basically the big stuff only just now, as I'll just be too overwhelmed otherwise. You can submit feedback via testflight or here. If I don't respond it is because I'm swamped.
Main things still to do:
Pets
Custom weapons/shields/armor/equipment (same limited scope as the android version)
GM Connect
Feat Browser
Database import/export
Campaigns (although I need to fix that in the main apps first as they don't properly work with remaster)
I also need to take a look at Pathbuilder 1e on android urgently as it's not working on recent devices (needs library updates).
Thanks,
Dave
Known v5 issues:
If you open gdrive before saving a character it will not sign you in. Fix coming in v6 (currently in review with apple).
Opening a character with a portrait, exit to front page, opening same character causes a crash. Slow loading of characters with portraits, fixed in v7.
Spells dialog doesn't default to correct list, fixed in v7.
Ancestry Paragon checkbox doing nothing, fixed in v7.
Create custom buff with no effects crash and app lock down, fixed in v7.
Inventor feats all level 1, fixed in v7.

ok got the sort by level fixed for the next release. Sort by traits isn't actually sort by, its a filter which requires text in the attached text field, eg comfort.

When buying armor, sort by level does nothing. Same with sort by traits, etc. Filter by rarity works fine.

Hi David! I’ve got an iPad Air and I’m having a bit of trouble with my characters. When I access the site directly in the browser, like Safari or Chrome, I can open my characters and make changes to them as usual. But when I add the site to my home screen and make it an app or widget, I can still open my characters, but I can’t seem to access my character builds in GDrive, even when I save new builds to it. This only happens when I save the site as an app or widget, not when I open it directly in the browser. I really like the site like this because it has this app-like feel instead of having to open the browser every now and then. I hope you can help me figure this out! Thank you so much for your hardwork!
