# v4.3.0

2018-09-01

  • Upgraded Lua from 5.2 to 5.3.
  • MOST IMPORTANT: Coordinate system of AutoTouch has totally changed. The old coordinate system was irrespective to orientation, (0,0) was always at the left-top of the device relative to the home button, so much convertion was needed in the scripts. Now the new coordinate system is respective to orientation, (0,0) is always at the left-top of the interface of the active app front most. With this feature, no convertion is needed, left-top of the interface is the left-top, AutoTouch will adjust it automatically for you. For example, a script for clash of clans , should just consider landscape, because no portrait for this game. MEANWHILE, the landscape right and left are the same, so just consider the landscape. So, in this new version, you have no need to consider orientation and covertion any more.
