Windows Phone 8? about craft.net HOT 6 CLOSED

It'd be pretty difficult. As far as I know, Windows Phone 8 doesn't have the same kind of socket support or threading support that Craft.Net needs.

Closing this issue, but feel free to continue the discussion.

I know this post is a bit old, but MineChat is now available for Windows Phone 8. http://www.windowsphone.com/en-us/store/app/minechat/3ef1ef4c-3159-4e4b-8303-fa1aaf0467c4

Is it based on C.N? I didn't think C.N would run well on WP8.

Awesome to know, I bought it earlier today. Would be nice, though, to have an option for it not to automatically disconnect just because I go to another app for a minute. Also, the notification that is done when one connects ("{user} has connected via MineChat for Windows Phone), is that a once-per-app-start occurrence, or is that every time you connect to a server?

Yes, I am going to look at backgrounding. The problem is if you forget about it and it eats up your battery and data usage. The message that shows is once a day per server. That will go away in the paid version once the free version of MineChat comes out (maybe a week or two).

Well, easiest thing to do is make it not background by default, and have a maximum timeout of like 10 minutes or something (most servers have timeout kick long before that anyway).
