Not so much a bug as a frustration and a suggested solution. If there's a better place to have posted this, please forgive my inability to find it.
I enjoy this game immensely, but there's one little UI thing that I think could be better off. On my phone, LG-P999, there's no problem. I prefer to play on my asus TF101 though because the screen is bigger (good job with the scaling, btw).
When I'm in the exchange, or repairing my ship, there's only a slide bar to select quantity. On my bigger screen, this is problematic in two ways:
1. There seems to be a sensitivity problem in that sometimes it's really hard for me to "grab" the bar to move it. This is especially pronounced with repairs or at the doctor, when I'm only trying to +1. It takes me sometimes upwards of 5 tries to get the bar to move. That's a pain because...
2. The size of the bar is quite large, and making adjustments takes a lot of movement. Having to slide 4+ inches to increment by one or two is a bit of an annoyance when it has to be done frequently.
I don't want to just complain though, so I'll take a stab at a solution:
Would it be possible to add a "+" and "-" button on each end of the bar, or maybe above or below it, to allow for a tap input rather than a slide?
Again, I really hate to make a critical comment because I do enjoy the game quite a bit.
