Is Alpha testing available?

I'm really interested in alpha testing the new 7.2dev. I don't have a computer to compile the dev pack from git, so I was wondering if anyone had an address online for a current copy that I could access. I am aware this is not ready to do any beta testing, but I think any input about any issues could help the process. IM me with the address or send an email to [email protected] if that's better. Thank you.

We do not distribute the alpha builds, because there are so many rough edges that I'd rather limit access to it to people able to compile it themselves, and potentially able to use the debugger well enough to provide a stack trace.
You can compile on Android using AIDE.

I could however provide specific purpose builds to individuals for special needs (bugfixes test, playtesting your own content...)

Thank you. I have downloaded AIDE and the premium. Are there any changes I need to make to any of the files before compiling?

Just be sure to pull the sources from the correct branch: stoutford_tests

Very important: back up your savegames first. Or at least, don't overwrite them. The savegames from a dev version cannot be loaded in a release version.
