Quiting out of GS files

HawtSawce

Hi,

I am pretty new to GS but not interactive softwares. I can't seem to find some way to quit out of GS using some type of behavior on a button. Was unable to find any search functions on the forum to see if this was already posted. I also noted when I compile and run my program on the iphone, quit, and then restart it, it continues from where it was last. Seems like it never quit, sort of alt-tabbed. Is there a way to add code for the home key on the iphone to ensure this is quiting?

Thanks,
Hawt

Apple changed the way the Home button works in iOS4. Now it always 'pauses' whatever app you are currently using. You have no control over it.

If you want to 'force quit' an app, you have to double-click the Home button to show all of your running apps, then press the icon until it shakes, and then click the minus button.

Thanks that sheds some light. Is there anyway we can 'quit' from within the software via button press?

There is no way to do it through the software.

Apparently you can do it if the 'UIApplicationExitsOnSuspend' key is specified and set to true in the app's info.plist file.

I am not sure we are able to edit the info.plist file? I have never done so.

Thanks for the info

If you can, thats cool, but I'm not sure you'd want to.. Most people would assume theres something wrong with your app and give you bad reviews.. Look at some of EA's games that don't have multitasking..
