Hi kooky panda

Is there a limit on how many diamond habitats are allowed for android players?
I just bred a mercury dragon and I tried buying a new diamond habitat but the game crashes every time I placed it on my island. It happened 4 times. Why is this happening?


Elsa;1423000']Hrm...can you update once more? There's 2.6.1.2 update that for sure will squish this bug for you.

There should not be a limit. Please try exiting your game and restarting to see if this corrects the issue.
IF not please let me know.

I restarted the phone but the issue is not solved. I tried buying a different habitat but the game closed on me straight away. Note That I am on level 167 and I have 136/161 allowed habitat.

I will report this over, but go ahead and send an email to support@storm8.com.

There are already posted reports of this specific bug for the android players at least here (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?86575-What-s-wrong-with-the-2-3-1-1-g-android-version&p=1213864&viewfull=1#post1213864) and here (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?87395-Gold-habitat-glitch). I think there are some more, but i can't find them now.
[S8] Elsa, also replied once in these posts, but since then we don't know anything new about it.
So, kooky, it you would be kind of you to be reported by your side too :)

Can you check your crash report?
When it crashes, it'll say "Report" or "Cancel". Tap Report > Preview and scroll down. The error message will say 'error exception', 'error', or 'error class exception'.
Can you let me know what the error message states? This can help the team's investigation.

Thanks!

Kooky, are you sure about "crash reports"?
As i already have mentioned, since the last 3 main updates, the game almost always crashes in my devices when i try to buy a habitat and there weren't any "crash reports" till now or any similar message to choose "Report" or "Cancel"... :confused:

The problem exists only on high level accounts!
By the way, have you noticed this interesting post (http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?87469-Idea-to-Fix-Performance-Issues), which seems to explain what's wrong with the performance issue? :)

I started having this issue again today.
Uninstalled DS, downloaded Valentine, same issue. This has happened beofre and switching to a different version helped, but not in this case so far. I managed to purchase 1 habitat in over 20 attempts. The game gives no warning or even freezing, just immediately goes black and drops me on home screen.
Using LG G4. I do have an Android update waiting and will install that and see if that helps and report back.

So, updated Android, was able to purchase 1 habitat so i tried another, crashed again.
Other than;
Reboot
Reinstall
Clear cache
Do all updates (game and device)
Try a different version

What else is there to do so I may continue purchasing needed habitats?

When I go to add any new habitat, my DS app closes without any crash report. I am playing on the DS Sun and Moon app (version 2.4.0.1s54g). This issue happens when playing on both my Google Nexus 5 Smartphone and my Google Nexus 7 tablet. I downloaded the current default Dragon Story app (version 2.4.0.1g) and am experiencing the same issue on this version as well.

Does anyone know if this is a known issue and/or any workarounds? It's a pain not to be able to add new habitats as all my habitats are now too full!

I found an old thread about this issue, but nothing further (ref. http://forums.storm8.com/showthread.php?88456-Application-crashes-on-adding-new-habitat).

I came here looking to see if anyone else has the same problem. I can't put down a habitat. I'm only level 118, only 94 out of a possible 112 habitats. No dice. Black screen crash and closes game. No error message. I'm current on updates- I'll try the recommendation of downloading a different version of the game.

This is a known issue and the team is currently looking into this issue.
Try the Halloween version.

( Try placing your habitat in a different place to see if that helps.)

Also having this issue. Checked to see where I was with habitats, 96/168. I'I've tried several different spots, haven't tried downloading a different version yet, so we'll see how that goes...

Just tried Birthday Bash, it was a no go.

Hi Kooky Panda,

Have been really busy with work, but have now submitted a bug report just now (#) and also submitted a bug report from my KevinW06 account (#).

Have had this issue for some time now and looks like from others posting on this thread, it has been around for a bit. Do you know if this problem will be fixed anytime soon?

I've tried loading other versions of Dragon Story like Halloween and am experiencing this issue there too.

Thanks for your help. :-)

This happens to me frequently when buying habitats, game closes down without a message so I keep the Halloween version icon on my device and log on to it when I can't buy habitat on current version and have never had a problem buying one on there. Hope this works for others until issue is fixed.

I'm at Level 156 with 134/164 habitats. Doesn't that mean I have 134, but i'm allowed 165? So I should be able (theoretically) to buy 31 more? Every time I try to buy one my game shuts down. WTH?

How can we take advantage of the habitats sale, if the game always crashing on Android, when we try to buy a new one?
If from time to time we have to buy only one, we reload several times the game and finally sometime we, accidentally, manage to buy it.
But now, we want to buy many of them and it's like mission impossible!

I am the first one, which mentioned the bug some months ago and after all this time there is no solution yet!
Al least, for some time, we had the Halloween version as a backup for this reason, which was working fine, but unfortunately you decided to suspend it!

Yep, issues here too and I'm very disappointed I can't take advantage of the sale. I've emailed support just a few minutes ago. I wonder if there would be a way we could tell them the ones we want and they could subtract the gold and put the habitats in storage for now so we don't miss out.

I just started having this issue, also have not reached my limit on habitats. Not only can I not purchase a habitat, I cannot purchase any decorations. Makes Bingo challenges impossible too. Like everyone else, I cleared the cache, uninstalled then reinstalled, nothing works. It happened to me right after my 39th floating island expansion. It was like a hidden switch flipped and now no more habitats or decor for me.

This happens to me all the time. When we, your paying customers, say crash, it means tbe game just closes and we wind up on our devices home page. There are no crash reports or anything else. The only thing that works is to uninstall then reinstall the game.

01-01-17, 11:35 AM
So you are saying an uninstall and reinstall will let me place habitats? I'll try that as the issue hasn't been fixed for me.

Still isssue on our three accounts - all get to 39th island expansion some time ago, all have not reached limit in habitats... game just crashes without any crash report.
Also, on my phone sometimes QUIT doesn't work - just stays until I **** it with some task ****er, sometimes quit regular. I started to use habitat buying to quit game - it's safer and quicker :)

Ah yes, version of the game? Newest... holidays.

Also i tried game in android emulator - whe I have two emulators, game starts in second with account from first... so it's some security problem... I must start first tropical island version to get to account on that emulator, and after that holidays version gets back to this account. Then I go to anouther emulator and if I start holidays version - it will start with latest used account, not the one used when installed game... so go to tropical island version again to get back to right account :(

Deleted my other versions and installed the one you linked. Took 2 tries but was able to place a habitat. But the garden of light that was in the space beside new habitat has disappeared. I even moved the new habitat over the spot to see if it just hadn't "loaded visually" but I was able to move it. Meaning garden statue really is gone. All the other statues for boosting coin rates seem to be there. Please help.

EDIT: Statue reappeared after 3rd reload of game.
