I haven't been able to install the last couple of updates as my phone says it doesn't have enough space. OS monitor reports free space as:
/system: 22,808/250,880K
/data: 18,752/142,848K
/cache: 21,728/65,536K
I'm guessing the app goes on /system, and save files go on /data. Given that there's currently 22k free on system, I assume it tries to do the install before deleting the old version. So, would I be able to install the newest version of ST if I first uninstalled the current version? I don't want to do the uninstall and then not be able to get the old version back if it doesn't work.

Why do not uninstall something else what you can reinstall easily and then try? and I think it goes to Data partition. BTW: My OS claims it takes 35.81MB + 0.5MB game data.
Do you have root access on your phone?

Just delete angry birds. That's so overrated anyway...
But really, if you delete your st, the next time you install it, it'll be the updated version, but I expect that you'll lose all of your current progress and saves. Unless there's some way to protect your data when you uninstall the game. There is a thread on here about transferring saves between phones which may be a similar technique (though I admit I haven't read it myself so I don't know).

Basically, it's a pretty crappy phone with not much space. ST is by far the biggest app on it (about 10 megs or so?). Everything else is about 1.5 megs maximum, so they would all reinstall (or update) fine anyway. I might get the android sdk out later and see if I can pull off the application files so I could reinstall the old version manually if needed but I'm not sure if that's doable or not. If someone who knows android (probably cory) can confirm that uninstalling and reinstalling from the google market will work then that seems like the best option with least potential for fuckups.

Check /data/data also.
I'm tired of customizing sigs every time I flash a ROM. This time it's plain old Torp City!

Save files should be easy enough to back up, although I hadn't actually thought about it (thanks for that!). Basically I want to confirm that when updating it first installs the update, then deletes the old copy. If that's the case, uninstalling then reinstalling should do the job.

That is how it works, during the update two copies of the APK are on the system. it is also possible that a reboot will clear the space. /data/data/com.corytrese.games.startraderselite/databases/ that should be where the saved game files are located. |

A lot of the problems (missing/wrong info) that were in the help section are still there On the plus side, I like the new ships It does not say "all reported issues fixed with help file" I did add your XP guide for new places to the end of the guide's section. There will be MONTHS of releases with improvements to capture all of the suggestions you and many other people have sent via e-mail or posted on the forum. It will not be a one-release or two-release job, it will take a long time to reach a finalized version. |

No rush, sir. I'm just happy to have paid a bargain price for a game with developers who listen and care. Carry on, Captains Cory and Andrew, carry on.

Rather than giving you a giant list of things to change for the professions section of the help, I just made a guide myself including all the info obtained from game observation, info stated in past updates, info stated in the ST Wiki (the parts that were finished), and info stated in the game itself. I have a feeling I'm still missing some stuff though. startradersrpg.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=rules&action=display&thread=2682 |
