This will reveal the correct price in the pop-up confirmation to purchase.• The “Retreat” button has been updated to say “Forfeit” in situations where something is lost for taking that action (ex. Loss of Squad Arena Attempt)• The resolution of an image in the 2x events popup (from Cantina Home) has been increased to make the image clearer.• Raid rewards no longer require a client restart to appear in the inbox.• Fixed an issue where a red screen was flashing during the game loading sequence.• Resolved a problem where battle animations have a slight delay.• Fixed numerous asset download/network errors – which displayed as 104.0 Errors.• Reduced hitching in combat and fleet combat – which was primarily impacting Android users, but will resolve any issues on both platforms.• Fixed a number of crashes on lowend devices (particularly those introduced by Update 8.1).• Fixed crashes that occurred when Emperor Palpatine uses the Power of the Darkside AOE attack.• Optimized memory overhead on iOS and Android.• Resolved a few issues where the game would hang or get stuck in a loading loop after Galactic War.• Fixed an issue where the find for MK4 Arakyd Droid Caller Salvage was sometimes causing a loading loop.• Fixed the bug where the Challenge countdown timer stopped updating in realtime.• The chat hitbox is now dynamic based on the width of the preview rather than a static width. This was particularly problematic with Thrawn as Lead in the Forrest Moon event and with full Ewok squads in Phase two of the Heroic AAT.• Fixed an issue where the Home button on Android dev ices would cause certain screens (like the character skill upgrade window) to overlap. (Note: This will not fix all instances of this issue, but specifically the ones caused by the Home button.)• Fixed an issue where tapping on "SIM" in Challenges when there are no Sim tickets on the account prompted players to purchase Cantina or normal energy and tickets.• Fixed an issue which should prevent the appearance of a negative credit value when trying to upgrade mods.• Resolved an issue where the Galactic War chest icon appears on Hard nodes.• Fixed an issue where the art for the Bounty Hunter Challenge briefly replaces the images for other challenges on the challenge screen.• Fixed an issue where guild icons would appear incorrectly in the “Ally Management” screen.• Fixed an issue where the energy icon is offset on 4:3 devices.• Fixed an issue where the Tip Ticker in the Store will flash rapidly.• Fixed an issue where not all hits, critical and normal, would show on the screen at once.
