Database corruption on load and save

I have noticed a lot of database corruption in the load and save process. Unfortunately so far I haven’t been able to find ways to recreate the issues I have seen. Perhaps you should / could double check that area of code looking for issues. Look for an array out of bounds (o based versus 1 based arrays) since slot 4 seems to have such a high rate of failure I stopped using that slot.

Things I have seen:
-Loading slot X gets data that appears to be from slot Y or Z.
-Loading slot X gets stats from slot X and equipment from slot Y.
-Loading slot X gets location of slot Y and a combination of equipment and stats from another slot.
-Almost all use of slot 4 results in some sort of corruption

What do you play the game on? I use all 4 slots and I never have that problem

I am using a Droid X. This doesn't sound like a hardware issue. Perhaps you haven't been saving and loading as often as I do.

I save to all 4 slots every time I save. I have not had any issues on any of the version of the game. Running stock Vibrant and Cyanogen 7 Nook Color. I dont even have trouble when sharing saved files between the 2.

I play on a Droid-X and I haven't ever had a problem. I mainly save to Slot1, quite often.

My Slot one save is at Level 58, Slots 3 & 4 are at 14 and 12...

I'm using a Droid1, and never noticed this problem, but to be honest, I've never thought to check if the stats were getting mixed up between the 2 games I've got going.

I save after every kill or before entering a new area, so several times a day.
