Wasteland dwellers - game freezing

Post » Sat Feb 13, 2016 10:13 pm

After I downloaded the update, my game now freezes upon selecting dwellers from the wasteland (waiting outside the vault or dweller list). One time I was able to collect dwellers after a deathclaw attack -- but only once. I'm no longer able to play at this point.



DETAILS:


iPad 4th Gen (A1460)


Updated from App Store upon notification

Game freezes when bringing in dwellers from wasteland. Have 5 high level, fully outfitted dwellers waiting to die.


No direct way to log issues with Bethesda - wasn't easy to find link in game (help/report button is buried), then have to sign in after finding appropriate thread. There are easier ways of doing this if updates are going to be riddled with bugs.


Details: iPhone 6, iOS 9.0.2, manual update from AppStore,

Someone in another thread pointing out that you can click on the mountain area (not on a dweller) to bring up the list of dwellers. This is the only workaround, but it lets your dwellers back in.

Clicked on far left edge, on Boulder pile with dead tree. This brought up the wasteland dwellers details, and contents they have, scrolled through dwellers to get to one's standing outside vault door and hit collect. Got through the 8 of mine and left only the three new ones. I was at 200 already, and killed off 3 low stat dwellers, then brought the 3 noobs in. Seems to have fixed the issue for now. Just waiting for the next set of dwellers to return from the wasteland, in 10 hours

Ok, next wasteland dweller showed up. Selected dweller by clicking on him, and got the wasteland dweller screen, starting with the longest one out, then it switched to the one I selected. This might be the issue, something with the call / select of the dweller.

My game is frozen. Tried leaving the game, tried turning off my ipad, nothing helps. Can't go to main menu. It is stuck on the corner of the screen where I tried to collect from one of my wasteland explorers. This is really annoying. Before it kept crashing now it does absolutely nothing !!!!! >.<
