Android got screwed over by this too. We have to deal with the app specific plat from now on too.

Anyway if they made it shared and merged if you loged in from an Android it would be too complicated to not share it again when you were on iOS. I think that's why they had to do it for both, because it has to be specific on iOS and would have to ne separated each time.

Of course this makes no sense to those who play ONLY on Android, as our plat could always be shared (What would happen with those whose plat got duped as Justg explained if you charged from the web? Would we get plat from both games merged and end up with more than we started with combined?), but the problem comes from how it would have to be split in the STS iOS database and create problems for the server databases.

Basically lots of math and bookkeeping their server has to do.
