Hi Dacota.
Firstly, Yes I've noticed the combat music issue. Secondly, to be honest
planet's actual coordinates don't really matter in the game, since once
you've selected a planet from the nav screen it'll tell you the distance and
that's really all you need to know, THOUGH i AM LOOKING FORWARD TO THE
POINT THAT THEY FIX THE NAV SCREEN TO SHOW FACTIONS FOR EACH PLANET.
With the sliders, well they're a little different from the ones in Kodp
where you have to slide slowly. Double tap and slide fully to the right for
%100, ie, almost with your finger to the edge of the display, or fully to
the left for %0. The these days I actually use that method with most
things even when I could use the flick gesture flicking seems disabled
when you have less than 4 total items, though as I said double tap and slide
I find quicker.
Regarding their other games, I do believe they plan ios ports and they have
said they'll considder access perhaps for their cyber knights or age of
piracy game, though unfortunately their only other Ios title, heroes of
steel is apparently heavily graphical and real time.
One advantage though is if they're porting to Ios directly they can fix
access at the same time, which also makes fixing star traders access a good
investment and is another reason it'd be good if people could 5 star rate
the game too to give them some encouragement and let them know Vi users
would like games like this accessible, since while there are! Vi users of
android, there are far more on Iphone (lets not get into the debate as to
why or wherefore just acept that is the current state of play), so there is
more potential exposure for a developer in access for Iphone games,
especially Rpgs.
Btw, another interesting fact is apparently a lot of sighted users didn't
like the graphical touch map either and prefer the navigator, which is a
very nice case of access adjustements doing general good for everyone.
Beware the grue!
Dark.

First of all, in the contracts screen, it lists the planets'
locations, but in the nav screen it doesn't.
Second, the music appears to be stuck for me. The android version has
several different music, but the iOS version seems stuck on the combat
music after you begin the game.
Have you guys seen all the games on Android? There are so many by
these guys. Unfortunately, I think only Star Traders really works, but
there are a plenty. I wish they'd port those to iOS for us.
Also, one thing to consider. I have a friend who recently reported
that Voiceover doesn't always let you increment and decrement the
sliders with a swipe gesture. This is true. Just double tap and hold
and slide slowly. It's a VO thing, not a game thing.

Yes, and the music is rather cool as well, though all of the game's
events
take place with text.
All the best,

Cool.
Does this game have music and/or sound effects?

Just had some news back from the developer.
he stated that he will indeed improve the nav screen to show faction
info,
apparently he tried this but it's not been %100 successful with vo, but
he
asks people to bare with him as it's a work in progress. He also will
fix
the conflict screen so it's possible to see what wars are with whom,
since
at the moment while you can see what conflicts are happening, you can't
tell
who they are between.
The one thing he does ask is could people please give 5 * reviews and
ratings to help him make the game more visible in the ap store, which
is
fair enough.
All the best,
Dark.
