The version 1.9.14 corrects background music resuming for certain Android & lock-screen mixes. Further an interrupted game will resume direct to the battle screen (if the game will not be killed by Android in the background).

Finally Google has managed to re-publish the CosmicPatrol app in the US market, but not the CosmicPatrol LITE version. I have no idea why the LITE version is still blocked.
Hope this will be clarified in the next days (or weeks -- the Google-support way).

Today I have got an email from Google. They say, that they have to remove the Battleship Sci-Fi games from the Google Play market (as all other games, which have the word Battleship in their name) because of the trademark infringement. Looks like the Hasbro company has a registered trademark for the word "Battleship".

Most important fix is the reactivation of destroyer insignia awarding, which went broken during the refactoring in previous version. Other nice change is the visualization of enemy ships after game end (especially, if you have lost the game). And additional minor fixes were done as well. I hope you enjoy the game.
