Typing + Wormhole =Total Phone Freeze
I've lost valuable time playing VO due to this glitch, and here is the information I have on it and my device. My device is a standard Sansung Galaxy A12, running on the Android 11 OS. I have no plugins or mods installed whatsoever and run the game vanilla mode. Basically, the glitch occurs after this specific set of actions:
Step 1) Find a Wormhole
Step 2) Press activate and switch to chat to type during the jump animation
Step 3) watch as the chat you are typing in closes and it goes back to the Wormhole screen without you closing chat
Step 4) have a mental breakdown because your game has frozen for the Nth time in the past 5 hours.
From what I can tell, the game is set to freeze the usage of all controls in the jump, and the text chat doesn't allow access to them. When the game boots me from chat, it doesn't realize I'm not in chat anymore, or the program thinks I'm still jumping, and refuses to let me use the spaceship controls.
I really hope you can fix the bug with the information provided, because it's pretty much all I have.
Also, please add a tutorial on how to use turrets when the Atlas class cargo ship is unlocked. Thank you.

This is a recurring bug for some mobile pilots.
Per discussion on discord, Avali seems to play on cell data so bad that using this website is a chore, so network issues severely slowing down the system jump process may be neccesary in replication.
Also, it seems ONLY system jumps by wormhole can cause this issue for him? I'd need his input to verify that based on his comments... The only idea I have for this would be I/O load for getting system background, MAYBE, or if its a false data point...

I havnt personally seen this bug as of yet, only thing that happens for me is when coming out of the wormhole the chat keyboard force closes and cant be brought bavk up unless u press the system back button on said device.
Seen this on rpi4 running android 9, samsung s10 (exynos version), samsung a90 5g (snapdragon 855), and samsung tab s7 (snapdragon 865).
Seen same force close of keyboard on all with a range of different chipsets and os versions along with different ui skins for said device (factory default)

I don't think that's true, since I have also experienced this bug, and although I do play on cellular data it's never so bad as to make using the website a chore. My cellular data is stable enough to allow me to do most things in VO, including PvP. In spite of this, the problem has occurred. So I don't think network issues are a prerequisite to replication. They might be a contributing factor, but not a necessary condition.

CuteLittleAvali, the next time this happens, can you send us a screenshot and exact time (and timezone) when it happened?
