Thanks PyTom for the awesome new version!!!
I was able to update to 7.1.0 and build an apk file to release on Android successfully =)
One big issue I still have is... on Android OS 8.0.0 Galaxy devices, enter key still doesn't work.
(I was hoping it to be resolved with the latest Android update)
I'm using renpy.input() to get players' name, and players are able to type their names but can't hit enter.
There is no other way to get around this, so the players are stuck at this screen and can't proceed any further.
If it happened on a random Android device, it would've been ok but Samsung Galaxy devices are over 30-40% of Android devices I believe..
It's also OS specific - it didn't happen for me on OS 7.X, but happened as soon as I updated to 8.0.0. And I believe Oreo is getting pushed out to a lot of people starting this year.
@Pytom: Could you please address this issue in the next release? Is there anything I can do in this release to make the 'enter' button work?
