@flyinghead Not sure about this failing CI Job, I think this is unrelated to my changes? 🤔 |

Yes, unrelated. This is due to a change in github job runners. |

RAOfflineProxy is an Android app that proxies RetroAchievements traffic through
127.0.0.1, enabling offline softcore achievement play through local caching and later sync.On Android, controlling the RetroAchievements host override through a broadcast receiver is a cleaner integration point than relying on external tools to patch runtime config files directly.
This makes the host override controllable by the app at runtime instead of requiring external file edits, which is more brittle and harder to integrate cleanly on Android.
