Battery use when screen is off

[shallowthought]

Not a bug per se, more a performance issue.

On my phone, if I start playing the game and press the power button (to turn the screen off), the battery use is higher than when actually playing.

Samsung galaxy s2, android 4.2.2 (cyanogenmod 10.1.3)

shallowthought - interesting claim, we will take a look at this. May have to do with your device and mod.

#HOS-2281.

Thanks. This is going by the battery charge graph under settings - it's pretty much flat if I play while plugged in but discharges with the screen off. If it's to do with the fact it's a custom rom don't spend too much time looking into it - it's too hard to put down when playing so not a major issue.

shallowthought - we are definitely continuing to work on performance and battery usage on Heroes. Now that the game is out and working, we can spend time optimizing

We will take a look!

Could be bugs in that ROM with how it suspends native GL application surfaces when the screen sleeps.

I will do some searching and see if I can find anything in the cyanogenmod settings that might help.

Thanks. I don't really have enough time to play for long enough that this is an issue (discharge rate is really low) so don't spend too much time looking, I'm sure you've got more interesting features you could be working on.
