Mobile crashes

Post by Fiinchy » Thu Mar 08, 2018 11:04 pm

Whenever I host a raise pups game on mobile and I'm about to spawn in the pups, I always crash and get kicked out of the app. I've updated to the most recent WolfQuest version, and I have 1GB of free storage. Any ideas on what could be causing the crash?

Check the tips here under Mobile http://wolfquest.org/support/

Also reduce the number of players in your game -- your device is limited on RAM memory and that will help.

Thanks, I'll try it out, but if it doesn't work what should I do?

This has been happening to me too, but once I updated it, the crashes stopped. (I DO own a Fire tablet, 8) )
Hope that helps?

iPhone 5S is about the oldest phone that can run the game, but it should work on lowest settings. Did you try the tips I linked to?

Yes, and nothing changed. I still crashed while trying to mark territory.

I play WolfQuest on a cheap Alcatel phone and this happened to me with the first wolf I made, every time after i finished marking it would crash and send me back to the home page. I made a new wolf and completed the game without any more big problems, though it still crashes every now and then. I even out smarted the phone to play on the Fantastic setting.
So maybe try with a different wolf, and I hope that helps

Mobile crashing problem solved!

I've tried it with all my wolves and even made new ones just for this, and nothing worked :( thank for the help, though!
  • Topic Merge
I had the problem of PQ crashing whenever I was trying to mark territory on mobile, but I found a solution. If you set the time to afternoon (day) before you mark, you won't crash. My guess for this is that it would put more strain on the device to switch from night to day along with loading the next part of the game.

I’m having the same problem wiyh multiplayer games, And it’s only started happening within the last 24 hours for me. It fixed for one round with 2/6 players in the game, and, unlike the other round I had, I didn’t have a pile of carcasses. So maybe we’re having the same problem? By the way, I play on an iPhone 6+ and it isn’t a matter of storage as I have 128 gigs and have used 68 of them. Also, I use WiFi a majority of the time, if it would affect anything. I’ll try the link loboLoco linked here and see if any of that helps. I already run the game on the lowest settings.
