Database selection missing

It's no longer an option within Touch to select a DB size. 

You're joking? That's absolutely ludicrous, especially when the UI quite literally tells you you're starting a game using the Small database (see screengrab attached). Why would that detail be kept in the UI if there was no way to change it? Surely it should just be omitted if that was the case?

Highly disappointing. Basically renders Touch not worth playing if the database limitation is going to be so severe, it was limited enough on High on previous versions.

Just to confirm are you playing via macOS?

Yes, I am playing on MacOS @Desmond Richardson

Why should we play small database on Touch ? Last years there was an option to select database size . Now while there are more powerful devices but no selecting database it is very strange.

Exactly. There's no reason to strictly limit database size. If playing across multiple devices is a consideration, it should be possible to include the same caveats as before – i.e. if you want to play across MacOS, iPad and iPhone, for instance, then I would understand a database limitation. However, if like me you just want to play on a single platform, then why should it be limited? This has been implemented just fine since at least Touch '17.
