Dialog options behaviour

[Mayweed]

Dialog options look like radio buttons, but don't behave as such:
If I select one option first and then another, I'd expect the first option being unselected.
Instead the first option remains in it's state, so that two options are selected then.
If I finally press the continue button, the topmost selected option will be executed.

No big deal, if you know about that behaviour and pay attention to it.
But if you don't, there's a risk that you select an option you didn't want.
Especially when you are new to the game, it could be fatal.

The radio buttons for dialog selection work correctly for me. Please post what device and what version of the operating system you are using, so the dev team can check it out.

Currently I use an Asus Aspire netbook with android 2.1.
I noticed the same behaviour on several other devices with 2.x versions of android.

Lots of folks including me have no trouble with 2.x (I have 2.3.4),, but I'm not the expert.

What were the other devices you tried this on?

Also, what version of the game?

[Antison]

do you have any other applications Installed on your device that utilizes radio buttons? Do they work correctly?

[Mayweed]

The radiobuttons in the settings dialogs of AT work correctly.
Perhaps there is a misunderstanding in which dialogs I meant.
Here is a screenshot illustrating my problem: all three options are selected
The screenshot is produced by running AT under Bluestacks App Player.
So it seems not to be an 2.x problem only.

Yes, I understand what you meant. This exact dialog box (in English) works fine for me .. No multiple selection is possible. I don't know why your devices behave incorrectly. I'll have to defer to the real android experts to figure this out.

I'm thinking this is an issue with the device or operating system or possibly a combination of the 2?

I went back to Mikhail's house for the sac of an accurate QA test on my 4.1.1 tablet and was not able to reproduce this.
I have been playing this game for 2 years and started playing on a 2.x O.S. and don't recall seeing this.

Can anybody else running a 2.x.x.x device reproduce this?

Just tested on my 2.3 mini tablet - and it works. Never noticed that.
So I see two possibilities now: It's an android 2.1 issue or it depends on the input method:
My netbook has no touchscreen but operates by mouse and keyboard (as Bluestacks does).

The second possiblity I can check out on weekend with two different 2.2 devices, one touchscreen
and one pointer driven (I will force my nephews to install AT ).

Glad you have at least one device working properly now! My guess would be the input method, but only because I think we'd have heard about this before if 2.1 had problems with the dialog boxes in general. Either way, definitely let us know how your experiment comes out!
