Android bug

posted May 10, 2013 20:03:36 by jim.baur
First off, this game is GREAT to be able to play on my Android tablet! I am using a Lenovo Thinkpad Tablet.

Found a bug though: Science station won't allow you to select a new target to scan if a target is destroyed while you have it selected. It simply shows nothing selected but won't respond when clicking a new object.

Please fix and keep up the great work!

I can verify this. I had the same experience last night.

I had the same thing happen. It seemed to fix itself if the server completed the current game and I then uninstalled/reinstalled, but not reliably.

The following things did not fix the problem, during the game:
- Clearing the appdata/cache
- Uninstalling and reinstalling the app
- Power cycling the android device

I can verify this bug on Galaxy Tab 2.0 as well.

yeah, I've had this happen consistently on Galaxy Note 8.0

Still love the game, just would be nice if this got fixed

Same problem! It's really hard to play when Science can't select or scan enemies!

I've had this issue on every Android device I've tried, which includes the following:

Nexus 4
Nexus 7
LG G2X
ViewSonic VSD220
Acer Iconia Tab A210

Yes, I have a lot of Android devices.

Any official acknowledgement of this bug? It's been reported for two months and makes the science station unplayable on android.

I got the same thing last night on my first playthrough. It's a game-breaking bug for Science on Android, but the other stations work fine, and I have other hardware I can use until this gets fixed. Still, I hope it gets fixed soon!

I still ran into this with the latest apk over the weekend, even though the What's New section mentioned that this was fixed. I was still able to swap devices with someone else, but I'd love to be able to use mine!

(Side note: THANK YOU for embiggening the Android UI buttons. It makes a huge difference)
