Changelog:
*** Vendetta 1.8.244
- Initial mission list updates are much faster now.
- Error message when attempting to create a guild on a Lite Mode account.
- Fixed some UI issues with large fonts.
- Faction logo in station menu is now clickable. The faction's description
in the faction standings menu is displayed.
- Fixed Australian Lite Mode purchase price.
- Revamped virtual keyboard. It looks different and should allow for
faster typing.
- Increased the polygon count of background planets
- Improved checkbox, radio button, and access key item UI images.
- Planet textures now get unloaded when they're not used to conserve
memory unless Cache Resources setting is enabled.
- Added an option (disabled by default) to alert about npcs entering/
leaving the station bar.
- New characters are automatically joined to chat channels 11 and 100 and
keep their active channel as 1 when they leave the training sector.
- Improved long-press for touch devices to drag-drop addons between your
ship ports and inventory in the Ship Configuration menu.
- Moved some Options menu items into an Advanced Options menu for mobile
devices.
- Signup button in Advanced Options menu now goes to the account
conversion menu if your auto-generated account hasn't been converted
yet. This removes some confusion by new players.
- Selecting 'Route' on a non-local mission sets it up to automatically pop
up the mission dialog when you dock to that station. If you change your
navroute or log off, the info is currently lost. If you dock to a
different station and take another mission, the info is lost. If the
mission becomes unavailable while you are en-route, when you dock, you
will be notified that the mission is not available at that time.
- A username history is now available in the login menu. Select the arrow
to the right of the username entry field to see the list and select a
previous one. Because this is a new feature, the history will initially
be blank. To edit/clear the history, you must edit your config.ini file
with a text editor. The history can be used to recover a new auto-
generated account before it is converted if an existing account is used
to log in.
- Changed the in-station camera views that are seen behind the station
menu. The training sector's camera is placed in a better position.
- Changed the message that is displayed when docking with a capship.
- Fixed a bug with Lua/IUP that was causing some invalid IUP handle errors.
- Fixed a rare Android crash on certain devices when attempting to
initialize the audio system.

nice, big update feels good man.

Whoa. Nice.

*** Vendetta 1.8.244.1/2
- Reverted Lite Mode subscription due to problems with Google Play.
- Fixed bug where chatting on touch screen devices while in space
caused the HUD to become unresponsive.

Holy crap thank you for fixing drag and drop on touchscreens!
The new checkboxes and radio buttons are a lot more visible on small screens now too. :)

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this, but the radio button/checkbox update seems to have broken my skin. i'm seeing white squares where they should be. See screenshot here: http://i.imgur.com/Br1QZ8f.jpg

i'm guessing I'm missing the files. What would I have to name the files for the skin? Or better yet where could I find the original graphics to use as a template?

Meatspin: We'll take a look, once we're sure things are relatively stable and solid.

The checkbox image names:
check_bg_hires.png
check_hires.png
check_disabled_hires.png

radio buttons:
radio_bg_hires.png
radio_hires.png
radio_disabled_hires.png

The button on the side of the username:
arrow_down.png

Like Incarnate said, we'll update our skins info when things are solid.

Also, I'd like to point out that while there are a number of mentions of planets in the changelog, this update does not include the high-resolution planet textures I've mentioned previously.

I'm being a little more rigorous on testing those, as I want there to be one and only one patch related to them.

Yay, an update, feels much better.

Wow, thanks for the quick replies! Helped me fix my problem

i'll get on fixing my skins sometime tomorrow, plus ive tweaked/polished some stuff for grey_plastic too

awesome! thanks man. really love your skins (actually put together what i'm using from a couple of yours)

It looks like the game might also be using 28x28 images now instead of the old 16x16 ones.
