Hi

I have a couple of users saying that further into it when they are on for a high score the game crashes on them.
I have looked to see if arrays have been cleaned up etc and cant seem to find anything obvious.

Any ideas?

I reset arrays using dim array[0]

without any source, then its can been anything.

its could also been a array out of bounds or downloading of hiscore might crash?

If you cant reproduce the crash on your side, its almost impossible to track it down. What app is it, maybe some of us can get the crash too?

No crash reports seem to be generating for this error - so maybe they hit back button or something...could be silly like that too.

you can try doing that by your own, if its a back button issue. This button can been controlled by AE, etc its only exists if you are in the menu example.

Hi SF,

Is the enable back button only in the newer versions of AE?

Or is it included in the java of the older versions?

Tell you that I had my game crashing on me out of nothing a very few times(kind of 1/100), like it simply closes and usually after a while(3 or 4 minutes) in game.
I blamed the load on my phone, ye many apps running and all that. Sometimes, kind of the same frequency, it starts like 30fps.

I was never able to figure out why both happens, but never happened on PC.
So, again, I think it happens when the phone is really loaded.

spacefractal

this can also look like a memory leak, so its run out of memory and then crash. But im would like to see eventuelly crash report.

30fps is sometimes also happens on Windows as well. So its not a unique Android issue eventuelly.

Also if the device have low in internal memory, then the app might crash out too.
