Ship teleportation

[grzechol]

I've been facing this issue since I've installed AoP Free for the first time.

If you're moving between sectors near the map corner, sometimes your ship is moved to the wrong corner of the target sector. Example:

Go to the lower left corner of World Harbor [3, 3]:


Press arrow left and then immediately arrow down.

Your ship should be moved to the upper right conrer of Deep Sea [2, 4]. Instead it's moved to the lower left corner. Press again arrow left and then arrow down. Ship is moved to the upper left corner of Damask Coast [1, 5]:


Please look at the date - I sailed from [3, 3] to [1, 5] in 12 hours.

I wasn't able to reproduce this issue when taking screenshot at each step. Perhaps you have to keep pressing arrows fairly fast and capturing screenshot takes too much time. Or something else happens, I've got no idea. Also, I'm not sure if it's always reproducible.

I faced some Map errors due to ship grounding when moving between sectors near the corners. I suspect that due to this bug ship is sometimes moved to the wrong corner of target sector, and if there's land instead of sea - ship is grounded.

Lol, stop breaking the game, grzechol

En1gma - do you mean you've been using this bug to travel between sectors very fast? So try to convince fallen or Cory Trese it's a feature, not a bug

Button jamming is always a platform issue on Android, I'm afraid, and very difficult to work around.

This is just one of those factors of Android development -- to make the game highly accessible to blind players, there are some side effects.

I'll look and see if their is a non-jamming cause that we could resolve ... otherwise, I'll log it to the known Android issues list.
