Creating decimal versions of an app eg 1.1? Fusion won't let me

[Simflare]

Hi guys

I'm trying what should seem simple but can't figure it out. When trying to create a new version for my app, I tried making 1.1 under the Android property settings, but it just defaulted back to an integer, 1. So I've been increasing my versions by whole integers rather than decimals.

How do I get the version to be a decimal inside Fusion? How can I now go from 9 to 9.1? I tried building a 9.1, but Google Play said "You've already submitted an App that was version 9". I'm looking at version info, and if I type in 9.1, it changes back to 9.

Thanks in advance

Simflare,


If you already sent a .apk with a version code 1, e.g., you can't send other with the same version code.

Thank you for your reply. Yes, but I should be able to send a 1.1 - Fusion won't let me do a 1.1

no Google playstore will not accept you 1.1 it only accept integer but your version name can be 1.1

To define the version information for your application, you set attributes in the application's manifest file. Two attributes are available, and you should always define values for both of them:

• android:versionCode — An integer value that represents the version of the application code, relative to other versions. The value is an integer so that other applications can programmatically evaluate it, for example to check an upgrade or downgrade relationship. You can set the value to any integer you want, however you should make sure that each successive release of your application uses a greater value. The system does not enforce this behavior, but increasing the value with successive releases is normative.
  Typically, you would release the first version of your application with versionCode set to 1, then monotonically increase the value with each release, regardless whether the release constitutes a major or minor release. This means that the android:versionCode value does not necessarily have a strong resemblance to the application release version that is visible to the user (see android:versionName, below). Applications and publishing services should not display this version value to users.
  
• android:versionName — A string value that represents the release version of the application code, as it should be shown to users. The value is a string so that you can describe the application version as a <major>.<minor>.<point> string, or as any other type of absolute or relative version identifier.
  As with android:versionCode, the system does not use this value for any internal purpose, other than to enable applications to display it to users. Publishing services may also extract the android:versionName value for display to users.

So are you saying that the version code is for your eyes only, and the version name is for the user, so the version name is where you put the decimals?

So version code might be 10
but version name might be 1.5?

[Fernando]

Exactly

that is the way it is, BTW any extra package have to go with the same integer version value to be recognized..

the version name, you may set whatever you want, for example "spring version" and that will appears for all users

[Simflare]

Ah ok, now it makes sense! Thank FVivolo!

But what is an extra package? Do you mean expansion packs? I don't even know how to make those with Fusion..

[Fernando]

yes extra package, not really need it in fusion since all resources are packed in a specific format

[Simflare]

ok cool thanks
