Just talked to a dev and...
« on: March 20, 2013, 06:58:52 pm »

He told me that everything on PC, every update we get is put on iOS at the same time. So, here is my theory.

The whole reason that updates take so long is because of this step:

1. Team must find EXACTLY how PC update works

2. Team must recode the update for iOS

3. Team must submit to Apple (takes time)

4. Team must update it

5. Team must put it out, it's VERY hard to do in a short period of time

I know it would be alot of hard work just doing all those steps for just one update and they cant make a mistake  or they would have to make a new update.

I'm pretty sure the PC client is running on the same client that the iPad does.

I don't think the iOS version of ROBLOX is a complete remake. It probably runs the same code and the update can be the same for iOS and Desktop without additional modification.

At this rate, I wonder how they're going to make the app compatible with Android   ???
