Updated Android build toolchain
Also fixed:
Please note that the release notes mention several new or updated extensions are required for use with 2.2.4 - these are downloadable HERE until the Marketplace has been updated.
The Marketplace will not be updated with these new extension versions until 2.2.4 is out fully!
- Added support for building projects using Android API 29
- Added support for building projects using AndroidX (Android Support Library is no longer supported, so you need to update any extensions in your projects which rely on this!)
- Added support for building a Google Play App Bundle package (toggle the file format drop-down in the Explorer/Finder dialog when clicking Create Exe)
- Added support for injecting text into the Android "application tag" during builds (be aware some extensions need you to set android:usesCleartextTraffic="true" for allowing http traffic in Android API 28+)
- Added support for specifying an Amazon TV banner image and have this packaged correctly in-game
- Changed to a current version of Gradle (5.1.1), so now you can use current versions of JDK and more easily implement some of your own extensions
- Removed the change of title to "[Game Name] (as Yoyo runner)" when doing a run (Create exe never did this)
- Please note that our Google Play Services and Google Play Expansion extensions have been updated to match these changes and so won't build with older runtimes!
- Functions: Fixed the OpenGL implementation of gpu_set_texrepeat(true) (0031303)

- Game Options: Added support for injecting text into the Android "application tag" during builds (this allows you to set android:usesCleartextTraffic="true", which some extensions need for allowing http traffic in Android API 28+)
- Game Options: Removed checkboxes to enable Google Play Services, Google Play Licensing and Google Cloud Saving on Android. These have worked for a few releases simply via the extension being in the project or not, and so the checkbox was misleading
