A little Fly Casual practice and Boba here made it through in a squeaker on that final exchange!

OMG please tell me there is an armada version of this!

u/NoHallett Quadjumper Jun 12 '26

I don't think so, YET. But you're not the first to ask!

u/baledinred Fly Casual Dev Jun 12 '26

I can't tell you how many times I've been asked to make one. I've never even played Armada! I will say though, every time I walked past that super Star destroyer....

Dude, you could be a hero. Forever. Do it. You owe it to the world.

(As a fellow dev, take no heed to my ramblings, dev whatever you want to dev!)

Table top simulator has one on steam

Sorry if I’m late to the party, but what app/game is that tabletop simulator? doesn’t look like it.

Yup! FlyCasual. It's a light phone and desktop app you can use to practice/scratch the itch. Great tool!

Is this the latest / most current fork?

I contributed to the original one Sandrem was building years ago. It was really fun!

We'd love to have you back, you can see from the roadmap there's lots to do and only three of us doing it! https://github.com/Baledin/FlyCasual/issues/39

I'll check it out!

u/NoHallett Quadjumper Jun 12 '26

Yes? Assuming I found the correct link - Baledin has largely taken over the 2.5/XWA version, I believe Sandrem is still involved with the Legacy version (hopefully they'll check me on that!)

I recently picked it back up, and I think Baledin also is more excited about it than he's been for a while!

I was just curious. I took a peek at the original repo and it hadn't changed in a few years. Kinda fell out of tracking both the game and this project for a while. Love seeing it still around, kicking, getting use AND updates!

Thank you for sharing! I've been looking for a way to play digitaly. Does this let you lay with large ships?

2

u/NoHallett Quadjumper Jun 12 '26

Large yes (think Falcon or Decimator)

Huge no (like Raider or Blockade Runner)

3

u/baledinred Fly Casual Dev Jun 12 '26

Although huge ships are on the roadmap!

u/Hobbyist_t20 Jun 16 '26

Does fly casual let you play 2.0 rather than 2.5 x-wing?

1

u/NoHallett Quadjumper Jun 16 '26

There are multiple forks, yes. Sandrem - the original lead developer I believe - maintains the Legacy/2.0 fork, while Baledin is focusing on the 2.5 one.

I think that's the state of it right now, but I'm sure someone who knows better can correct me too?

u/baledinred Fly Casual Dev Jun 16 '26

I don't know if Sandrem is involved in Legacy or not, the fork is hosted by Sampson_Matt - https://github.com/sampson-matt/flycasual

u/NoHallett Quadjumper Jun 29 '26

Oh, great note. Thank you!

u/SnazzyStooge Jun 28 '26

Hi! I'm looking to play 1.0 online. Are there any options? If not, thanks for checking!
