(Case 1415919) Platform 0.50 package regression and feedback for mobile platform

Unity Engine

Hi @elliotc-unity . The current 0.50 upgrades suggest to remove platform-specific Platforms packages and only add platform package 0.50 which becomes huge regression to my dots big project.

  1. Version at general settings become major and minor which is unacceptable. It should be major, minor and Build. Last time what I feedback is the previous platform package has major, minor, build and revision which makes iOS build failed to pass testflight that not accept x.x.x.x version but x.x.x version is ok. So I hope next platform package release should change it major, minor and build since just major and minor versioning is not really enough. Or maybe u can make it one input field only and let unity users to decide versioning format themselves.

  1. Missing insane amount of essential Android platform components
    After no longer have android platform-specific Platforms package, a lot of essential android platform components are missing which is also unacceptable. Last time I feedback a lot about this android platform package and receive a couple of unofficial fix and expect those improvements will merge into the new package release but now it’s completely removed from release. Actually I demand more android platform specific components but now u completely remove it. :hushed:
    I hope android platform package will be restored again for the next platform package release. Or maybe integrate the android components into platform package.

  1. There are also some bugs that only happen at Platform 0.50 package since platform package no longer available like cannot build ARM64 only android build and some never working up until now like cannot create symbol.zip, auto connect profiler.

@elliotc-unity Any new update for this issue?

Seems like it now respects the normal Unity build settings in Project Settings. Try those?

Not really. I can’t use android specific feature like create symbols.zip, build app bundle(Google Play) and the list goes on. Moreover I need to have multiple build configurations for all kind of usages. So, android specific package is still required.

@Tomas1856 Sorry for tagging u again. I would like to know what’s the current status of android platform package? I really need it to restore the package back again. Currently I still using android platform 0.11.0-preview 15 and make it compatible with platform 0.50 for now.

I am not working on DOTS project, but I would advise you to submit a bug describing your use case, so DOTS team would have a visibility on your problem.

@jivalenzuela I think u already check the bug report and clearly understand the issue and bug. I would like to ask is that platform android package will merged into platform package or platform android package will be revived? And also when can I get the new package release?

Hi! I have seen your bug, but don’t know yet what version will include a fix. There’s a few build configuration related problems that we’re looking at, it’s likely we’ll want to tackle them at the same time.

@jivalenzuela Can u look at iOS platform too? Recently there is a thread mention about iOS build issue ( https://discussions.unity.com/t/876400 ). Currently I dun have Mac to test it yet.
