I know it won't make everyone happy, but I have released another update with some more improvements for ICS.
Game size had to increase some and I updated some scoring and refresh settings for the higher-end phones.

As always, thanks for the hard work and timely updates. This is a major reason I purchased Elite in the first place.
Launched from Torpedo Bay 1 of my MetroFLASHed HTC Droid Incredible

I thought you were gonna make that new alien hunter profession discussed in that other thread. Can you put him in the next update? I mean who wouldn't love to be a profession that actually specializes in finding and killing aliens? |

Oh, sorry for my confusion.
No, I won't be able to get a new profession created and tested in the next release.
That will take many days of work and the priorities for v4 and v5 are pretty well set.
However, there are several new class ideas that have been posted and discussed on the forum.
I expect to see those being further investigated and probably doing some investigation regarding how they'll balance into the other character types, special abilities and offer interactions. All of this takes many, many hours of work.
We will definitely get into that research as we move through the v5 roadmap.

Sounds good. Have I ever mentioned that your game is pure genious? Oh I haven't. Okay in that case Id like to tell you I think ST is pure genious, but you probably know that already ;D

Also, I think there is probably a bit more discussion to be had before attempting to add an Alien focused character class. Aliens are definitely not everyone's favorite feature and they're fairly rare, even when you're seeking them out. ST is based on some carefully interrelated systems and from a balance and completeness standpoint we have required that all the character classes satisfy a certain set of equations regarding integration, value, min/max and bonus quantification. I'm not at all ready to give up those requirements which really will require a lot of development work before we can add a character class. Not saying I don't like the idea of a Templar, Alien Hunter, Inquisitor, Harvester, etc ... just that none of the are simple or quick adds. Here is that other thread: startradersrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?action=display&board=wish&thread=2429&page=1I think "Alien Hunter" and "Templar" are pretty similar conceptually but would have very different bonus/penalties in my mind. |

Still can't find contracts  Game just started went to de valtos prime cadar prime syndicate core both syndicate richard planets and that cadar planet under de valtos prime. Even tried steel long planet under syndicate core. All no contracts. Did this all happen because of that resource bug you fixed earlier on? EDIT: Was on impossible difficulty. Tried insane difficulty. Still no contracts. Galaxy Epic 4G |

I will focus in on the Galaxy Epic 4G and read the reviews and look at crash reports to see if I can find out what is up with your device
