Well, in response to my own original post on this thread, I would like to state that the suggestion made by user zdj DOES actually work.
I made the error of attempting to breath while ducked behind cover. By the time I had plugged in the keyboard (via otg), the original ctrl settings had booted up (from my earlier gemini rue save)
So, to clarify for anyone else who wishes to 'breath' in Gemini Rue on an android device (mine specifically being a samsung galaxy S4), I suggest using zdj's advice of doing the following (my own additions included)
1. Open the game menu (by hitting the back button
2. Hit the keyboard button in the menu (assuming your copy of Gemini rue has that feature, earlier copies lacked keyboard key remapping)
3. Reassign the 'breath' fuction from ctrl to the number 6
4. Return to the game and when prompted to breath during the game, step out of cover (so that you are now aiming at your target) and tap the 'F' key to breath, not 6!
And that is your (current) solution. So far, I guess neither zdj or myself know the reason why this works.
Additional note: This is confirmed working on zdj's Galaxy S3 and on my Galaxy S4.
Enjoy friends and I look forward to AGS developing further for Android.

Hi everyone, particularly JJS and co.
My question concerns the 'breath' feature in Gemini Rue.
As this issue has been put forward in the past, I wonder if there has been any resolution for it: Being able to breath during the gunfight sequences.
I have looked at the bug log on mantis bug tracker, listing similar experiences with other users when attempting to play Gemini rue on their respective android devices.
I also took into consideration the following post on this forum by user zdj:
"Found a work around for those stuck on the gun training part of Gemini Rue due to the ctrl key issue:
1. Open the game menu by pressing back button
2. Press "keyboard" button.
3. reassign breathe action to the '6' key
4. Resume the game and you can now perform breathe by pressing the 'f' key on the on screen keyboard.
I stumbled upon this by accident and have no idea why it works but it does on my Galaxy S3. I don't know if it works on other phones. "
So far, I have attempted this on my Galaxy S4 but no success.
I have also attempted to map the breath key from 'ctrl' to other letters of the alphabet but am experiencing no success.
My last attempt was with a usb keyboard plugged through an otg cable to my S4. No success.
If there has been a resolution, I would love to hear about. If work is pending then great.
Many thanks
