Hi. Just an observation. If when starting a NEW Captain, you choose to create a custom ship, and then back out; the game resets all your previously input info, to default settings. In other words, it's better to create a custom ship BEFORE creating Captain's Name, Profession, Faction choice, etc.  This is not a bug report, (yet), just a warning. Maybe it's already been reported? |

I also noticed that ; nothing grave nor urgent, but that is quite disappointing. =|

How are you "backing out" and what Android OS? Probably a bug in the code related to one of the dozen or so Android OS version workarounds. |

Hi Cory Trese. Same result, for either software or hardware, backing out. Both reset the Captain's data. I've also noticed, that the Custom Ship data needs clearing, even if I make no changes, and just back out. Backing out of Custom Ship, sends me back to the Captain's name dialogue, with an empty field, ready for new input. (Keyboard is also active). Hope this helps. Let me know if you need clarification, or more data. |

Update. Hi Cory Trese. Just checked some things out. If I turn keyboard off, in Create ship - keyboard is off when I "back out" of Custom Ship, but still sent back to empty Captain's Name dialogue. The Starting Profession, does NOT reset. It stays at users setting. Starting Faction, resets to De Valto |

Crazy! Sounds like Android is so low on memory it's terminating the previous view state. Not sure what if anything can be done about that.
I logged a bug to investigate
Ticket #2512 (new enhancement)
ST - RFE - Store Incomplete Captains to Interim Saved File?

Seems strange, because I have never knowingly experienced the usual problems attributed to low memory. Not saying it's not memory. It's just odd. What do you think about me re-installing, without the Ship Editor? |

Reinstalling never helps anything with Android.
Never in my entire experience with the platform (before or after making games) has ever been fixed by a reinstall.
