Issues with Android App + Upcoming Updates
Added 2024-03-28 14:39:02 +0000 UTCHello! I formatted my chapters the same as I've been doing for two years, and woke up to find that on Android, Patreon has decided paragraphs really didn't need those spaces. The chapters are still readable like normal on browser, iPhone, or PC as far as I've been able to check, so try reading it on the web or through your email if you're having issues! Wish I could fix beyond that.
While I'm making a post to everyone, figured I might as well give a hint of what's to come. I'll be posting 11 parts of Star Crossed on the normal schedule; I have more to tell past that, since those two are a great way to explore the culture and worlds of Aafa and Earth. However, I really want to launch my next miniseries close to Chapter 28. The next content is planned to be a story about Gress' cases on Avor as a hostage negotiator, and it'll take the normal schedule after Star Crossed 11.
Star Crossed to me is a big leap forward from Something About Blue, and there's a lot of plot to unpack. Since I won't leave it undone, I'll be trying to finish it with once-a-week Tuesday updates on top of the standard content. This will be a temporary extra as a passion project, because I really like those two characters and the avenues the story opens up. It could be its own thing easily.
On a final note, we've started Act 2, and it's going to become a barn burner before our real life calendar turns to May. Stay tuned, because everything's about to get crazy...and now that the stage is set, we'll be seeing a lot of returning species such as the Arxur or the Sivkits that you guys have been asking for!

As of April 4th the paragraphs seem to be fixed.

2024-04-02 04:57:18 +0000 UTCThanks for understanding! If it becomes too much, I'll absolutely just finish the story on an as-able basis; I'm 100% doing it because I have to see it through lol

2024-03-30 14:35:39 +0000 UTCDamn! SpacePaladin, you really are the gift that keeps on giving! I'm super excited to see your arxur plans, but don't burn yourself out in our accounts. If 5 posts a week ends up being too much, we completely understand!

2024-03-30 14:04:11 +0000 UTCAlso, if Tellus's contribution to the consortium isn't espionage... I'm gonna be sad, i want my Tellus Intelligence Agency aka TIA

2024-03-30 09:07:11 +0000 UTCPersonally, i just wanna see Gress not treat humanity like some puppy, like maybe he sees the "creative" interrogation methods humanity have or something, just something really
Corporal Chunk
2024-03-30 06:43:41 +0000 UTCI'm still fine with that... I just said i wanna see humanity kick ass, didn't say the ass they kick needs to deserve it ;)
Corporal Chunk
2024-03-30 06:40:34 +0000 UTCA reminder to you that there hasn't exactly been an abundance of ass to kick for 20-smth years. Which means that any ass they *do* kick probably doesn't deserve it

2024-03-29 19:04:17 +0000 UTCI would say all of the next few are dramatic for their own reasons, but the shoe falls in terms of *action* in Chapter 29. Something happens in 29 that changes everything…and not necessarily for the better!
Space Paladin
2024-03-29 16:14:51 +0000 UTCYou’ll be catching up just when the spicy stuff gets going, so good timing!
Space Paladin
2024-03-29 16:13:49 +0000 UTCYES RETURN OF SIVKITS AND ARXUR. I can easily see the sivkits tying in to the ark 3 plot, since they’ve been mentioned before. Hopefully that means Tassi gets to meet an arxur
Alicja Pielichowska
2024-03-29 13:19:20 +0000 UTCQuestion, what episode will the action start picking up? For the ark 3 plot, i wanna see humans start kicking ass again cmon man
Corporal Chunk
2024-03-29 13:04:42 +0000 UTCI was wondering why my ADHD brain wasn't able to parse through recent chapters as well. I didn't even notice the lack of spacing but yeah I've seen this on other apps for android too. Maybe a lot of apps are just using the same API for text.

2024-03-29 12:14:31 +0000 UTCHey, I was wrong earlier. My goober butt jist didnt realise the spacing was scuffed... muh bad

2024-03-29 05:25:29 +0000 UTCPoor Fyron... ;_;
richfiles
2024-03-29 01:21:00 +0000 UTCYeah I don’t use the app but maybe I will if it fixes the issue.

2024-03-29 00:29:48 +0000 UTCCan't wait! I have to catch up on the main story a few chapters
Syne Ardwin
2024-03-29 00:19:44 +0000 UTCYou’ll find out soon: I’m talking next five chapters soon! Might see some cameos too 👀
Space Paladin
2024-03-29 00:07:17 +0000 UTCThat’s weird, they show on mine. Maybe it’s a safari thing, try on the app? They should show up in the email update if worse comes to worst, that’s pretty important for emphasis and italics!
Space Paladin
2024-03-29 00:06:57 +0000 UTCItalics still aren’t showing up on mobile even months later lol. I don’t know if that’s just me or just patreon being shit.
Gumcel
2024-03-28 22:45:01 +0000 UTCSo looking forward to finding out what the Arxur and the Sivkits have been up to all this time!

2024-03-28 22:19:22 +0000 UTCwould you be receptive to consider ideas related to talsk? (in a few days when I can respond after Easter celebrations)

2024-03-28 20:36:15 +0000 UTCI had an idea for HE3 that involved Venlil extremists trying to send Fyron to the Kessler cage “where she belongs”
Space Paladin
2024-03-28 20:09:58 +0000 UTCNova children are living their lives being good friends with Arxur, so says I

2024-03-28 18:23:37 +0000 UTCHype! Hype! Hype!
Tyler Ellis
2024-03-28 17:13:03 +0000 UTCWhat are the chances of a farsul side story after star cross is over? They and talsk have been weighing heavily on my mind ever since the kessler cage went up,
Cartoon dinosaur
2024-03-28 17:08:42 +0000 UTCOh. Between the main series and the bonus, you are at a solid pace, that you add for "Star Crossed" shows that this story has fascinated you and unleashed your creativity, it a pleasur to see. For "Something About Blue", I don't know what your mean. I think the story is very good. So yes, the relationship between Rivlia and Blue worries us... but that's normal, she's an Exterminator, a fanatic of Federation ideology. The result is consistent with the universe. I personaly imagine that they finaly managing to be a true couple, but that will take time, and the 4 chapter was only their introduction, the ice-breaker, the most interresing part of their relation.

2024-03-28 16:01:07 +0000 UTCI'm on android and the paragraphs aren't spaced out, so it looks a little weird, but it's still readable.
Sam Switzer
2024-03-28 15:58:39 +0000 UTCI have no idea what that means lol. Spoiler much lol.
Greg Gougeon
2024-03-28 15:37:30 +0000 UTCIt was fine on my android
BiasMushroom721
2024-03-28 15:29:36 +0000 UTCI'm not seeing the problems with paragraphs that you are, so it's not affecting everyone.

2024-03-28 15:24:49 +0000 UTCI learned a thing today, too! “The term barnburner was derived from a folklore tale about a Dutch farmer who burned down his own barn in order to get rid of a rat infestation. In this case it was applied to men who were thought to be willing to destroy all banks and corporations, in order to root out their abuses.” In modern contexts, though, it’s just a way to refer to something as being exciting.

2024-03-28 15:16:06 +0000 UTCSounds good, SP. Keep up the good work
Michael Olson
2024-03-28 15:12:21 +0000 UTCThank you! Gress’ story will be fun, and get to put a spotlight on certain KC world elements 😅 I’d be more specific, but want you guys to see for yourselves!
Space Paladin
2024-03-28 15:11:33 +0000 UTCBeen reading on Android. I've no idea what everyone else is seeing, but it's working perfectly fine on my phone. Guess mine is literally just built different.
Youre a swedekisser arent you
2024-03-28 15:02:23 +0000 UTCexciting! Very interested in Gress's backstory (and loving the characters in star crossed)
Aured
2024-03-28 15:00:34 +0000 UTCNoted 😌 Barn Burner isn't an expression that I have heard before 👀 But yes, VERY excited to see what's to come 🤌🏻🤌🏻
Janne Riihinen
2024-03-28 14:57:42 +0000 UTCNot sure what’s causing issues for some specific people then. Perhaps it’s a new update that hasn’t hit everyone yet…hope it doesn’t roll out lol 😅
Space Paladin
2024-03-28 14:55:08 +0000 UTCDidn't send the first time for some reason, but I'm on Android and the last 2-24 chapter that just dropped a few hours ago looks good to me, no issues now or ever with the format !
Criss Dumi
2024-03-28 14:53:09 +0000 UTCGlad that it’s working for you! I just had several people mention it on discord and wanted to be sure everyone could enjoy Quana getting chased by a Resket bully 😂

2024-03-28 14:48:56 +0000 UTCIt’s about to get very real and very intense. If you think NOP2 is chill…give it like 4 chapters lol!
Space Paladin
2024-03-28 14:47:00 +0000 UTCI have been hinting that people might see some…interesting cast additions to Chapter 26 👀
Space Paladin
2024-03-28 14:46:00 +0000 UTCThank you, that’s very kind to say! I want to tell fun stories for you guys and see them through 😅
