Try clearing cache and restart/ reboot your phone. If that doesn't work maybe some one else can help you out. If you don't mind starting over you could always delete and then reinstall the game (but who wants to start over) or you could also wait until they release what ever it is for a hot fix some time later. <those are the only options that come to my mind. By the way I had that message come up in game about the world I created after the last update/fix, all I did was tap okay and kept playing with out any unusual problems. I haven't had that happen yet to a character file, but I only make one character at a time.
 
@Sword Ace I was going off the assumption that the Cultist or Moon Lord wouldn't or take quite a while to be added due to processing issues, but I guess you're right, he does lack quite a bit of difficulty to be harder than Plantera or Golem.

505 games should just...stop trying. Re-logic should hire someone who can actually do the job.

This is not a constructive post, but you are right, this is really hard work and 505 games at least can take some help from relogic. But now there is no reason to 505 games would stop mobile development. They just need some help and also some reliance :)
 
@505BugReporter Quite an ironic name you've got there considering that statement. They've played their part in bringing us these fixes, and if they just left codeglue to work on it then it would be pretty messy.

Hello All!
Makes me feel like a snitch for reporting stuff like this, but I'm pretty sure crystal bullets aren't supposed to stack like this...View attachment 93172
(They were all crafted in one big batch btw)
Also, if I buy more than 2000 musket balls at once the counter weirds out a bit, the first digit doesn't wind up in the same place as the last three digits.

Cheers

Yeah, I've found that glitch too, but with Marshmallows on Sticks. They kept stacking in 5, but when I roasted them, they only gave me one Cooked Marshmallow.

I guess you left them on the fire too long

Another bug, if you craft something then run out of ingredients, the thing you were crafting is no longer at the top of its category (e.g craft a star veil, when you can't craft any more it goes to its original place in the armor/accessory crafting menu) but you follow it to the original place. This means you have to scroll all the way back up after you craft something which is really frustrating.
 
  • You can fly around with the Shroomite set bonus not deactivating if using a Hoverboard with.
  • There should also be a dedicated up/down button while having the board equipped since hovering is impossible with current controls.
  • There used to be an option for switching between fixed joysticks and free-tap ones, could that be reimplemented?

@SteveisNoob I think they're all displayed so you can keep track of what recipes you've learnt not having to remember them and the ones you have the materials and crafting station for are instantly displayed in a lighter hue, plus the Guide wasn't really meant to be all that useful anyway.
 
It has been 5-6 months and other platforms had updates, so what is it that still needs fixing anyway and the more time u waste, the less Amazon players will show up.

Important Note: We will keep these posts updated as further information comes in from the community and/or development team. Please read the fixed and reported bug lists below before posting your own to reduce duplicates!

Hi everyone,

Well, it’s been a crazy week since the 1.2.4 update was launched on mobile, to say the least! :) We’ve been thrilled to see what players have been discovering, but that also means there have been a number of new bugs coming up that our teams need to squash. As part of our mission to communicate as clearly and openly with you as possible, we will be using this thread to keep track of and update issues with the mobile versions of Terraria, so that you can see where we stand on each of them.

We’ll also include general updates at the top about some of the biggest issues affecting each individual platform, and where we currently stand. We all believe it’s just as important for you to know about what’s being fixed as it is to know when we still can’t reproduce a problem or don’t have a solution yet.

Things may seem slightly messy at first as we filter all the data and get everything organized and vetted against our own internal systems, but again, this will serve as a great one-stop place for you to see what’s going on with the current version and future updates.

With that being said, let’s jump in, shall we? Hope you brought your Flippers!


Top Platform-Specific Issues:​

Apple iOS:
  • December 18, 2015: New patch for iOS released. It addresses the iOS 7 cloud save issue below, as well as the "confirmed" list of bug fixes. :)
  • UPDATED! iOS 8+ cloud save issues -- It turns out that recent iOS updates have turned the iCloud Drive setting to "OFF" in Settings > iCloud on some devices. Please check your settings, and if it's Off, turn it On! :) This is for users who were stuck at the endless "updating cloud" message. Thank you very much to user @Zach Wright for bringing this to our attention. Sometimes the solution is right there under your nose!
  • iOS 7 cloud save issues -- Because the new cloud system is only compatible with iOS 8 and above, and iOS 7 devices still received the update, this has caused incompatibility issues resulting in cloud saves not being accessible. Your data should be safe! However, we are currently working on a solution with Re-Logic that will be a good compromise in ensuring you can play with those saves, even if your device doesn’t support iOS 8 and above.
  • Everyplay is currently disabled, so video recording is not possible. We are awaiting a new SDK and will have this re-implemented in a future update.
Google Play (Android):
  • January 4, 2016 Update: Good news! We will be releasing new version of both the free and paid versions of Terraria on the store shortly. This should both fix the in-app purchasing issue as well as contain the bug fixes that were in the last update for iOS. Again, we apologize for the delay, but we are excited to finally bring this to you!
Windows Phone:
  • Crashing at launch -- Unfortunately, try as we may, we have yet to reproduce this issue internally. However, we believe to have narrowed down a root cause, and are working directly with Microsoft on a solution. We know that this has been ongoing for several weeks now, but it has been a difficult bug to isolate and address.
Amazon (Android):
  • Hello, where is our update? -- The latest update was delayed to ensure the new bug fixes make their way into the release. We apologize for the delay, but rest assured that it is coming!

Confirmed & Potential Bug Fixes:​

Confirmed fixes and potential fixes for the next patch (most of these should already be in on iOS, with other platforms coming soon):

  • Fix for iOS7 scaling and misalignment in menus issues
  • Fix for Arch Demon gore sprite transparency
  • Fix for issue with items being deleted while drag/dropping and switching tabs in some situations

  • Fix for Don't place Demon Altars outside of Crimson biome

  • Potential Fix for Android Try & Buy issue
  • Potential Fix for Amazon certification issues
  • Potential Fix for Windows Phone issue
By Design / Unable to Reproduce:
  • Switches and Levers not working consistently: We need to look at this more closely, but they are working as expected in code.
  • You cannot open a chest when you have a pick in your hand: The game logic tries to mine the chest instead of opening it. Works as designed.
  • Shroomite gloves do not like opening chest: Same as Pickaxe issue above.
  • Builder Potions can be found in chests: This is in the original game code, and is by design.
  • Picksaw doesn't work: Confirmed by QA as working correctly.
  • Asphalt doesn't work: Confirmed by QA as working correctly. Clarification in 12/16/15 update below.
  • Ocram Trophies are converting to Ice Queen Trophies: QA was unable to reproduce this.
  • Looms seem to duplicate rather than disappearing: QA was unable to reproduce this.
  • Angler doesn't give any fish quest: QA was unable to reproduce this.
  • Flame Dyes still don't work: By design, as these complex dyes are not supported on mobile.

Issues Reported to QA & Development (Status Pending Further Investigation):​

Newly Collected and Reported to QA/Dev on December 16, 2015:
  • Clarification: The Asphalt bug mentioned in OP is only for asphalt that was placed before the new update, and fixed by replacing the asphalt. This is not really an issue, but a little annoying since some structures have lots of asphalt.
  • The discount card doesn’t work (it doesn’t affect prices). Also, it increases prices for re-forging. (Android/iOS)
  • As soon as a world is loaded, user crashes. They did some testing and figured out that the crash might be due to chests. Their game is having trouble rendering them. They tried the same on an older iPad, and they can open chests, but only with an empty slot.
  • Mech Bosses do not drop their respective drops.
  • Living Loom is not present on living trees.
  • Wiring is not working properly.
  • Spears do not work properly.
  • Corruption's generation isn’t working correctly.
  • Must have Candle and Battle Potion in order to get high spawn rate.
  • Guide does not have Recipe Guide (maybe due to limited memory of mobile devices?)
  • Players and NPC/enemies cannot go down Stair platforms, they are pushed upward.
  • Spawning of critters and even enemies can spawn right in front of you (supposed to be off-screen).
  • Auto-aim feature malfunctioning, only detects closer enemies, unable to detect far enemies.
  • NPC Glitch (spawning in a solid place).
  • Beetle armor: Set bonus reads "Minion damage +"
  • Spectre armor (mask): Set bonus reads "Mana usage -"
  • In MP, items you take from worlds other than the ones in your device disappear when you return to your world. Any changes to the character also appear to not be saved.
  • HP hearts have lines in the middle.
  • Bosses in MP: When the person who the boss is focused on teleports, the boss follows it and de-spawns. Happened with Queen Bee.
  • Pre-Hardmode Crimson does not convert grass or trees to spread. Crimson will only spread on dirt blocks (Galaxy S4, Lollipop 5.0.1). Related, you can try to plant Crimson Seeds on grass, and the seeds will be used, but no Crimson is planted.
  • Wall removal is limited to the PC’s waist. Excavating is tedious when you have to remove the background for your own walls one tile at a time.
  • Immediately following a power off due to battery, game enters a failed download/install loop. (Android)
  • Magic Mirror needs to sometimes be used several times for it to take player home.
  • Fishing: Items in inventory will randomly be considered bait with the tooltip "10% bait power." Seems to happen on stackable items only. User had it happen with a big stack of Cobwebs. Suddenly had 400+ bait to use.
  • Sometimes switching from a Bug Net or Fishing Pole to another item (weapon, pick, etc.) will randomly place a number in the hotbar next to that item, and you will not be able to swing it. Shortly after, the game will crash.
  • I found that when an Arch Demon is killed, the head has a white box around it.
  • Chairs have a horizontal purple line through the middle (chairs placed before update).
  • Created several new worlds, defeated all bosses until Plantera. However, no Plantera Bubble spawns inside the Jungle biome (iPhone 6 128GB iOS 8).
  • When I use the Sonar Potion to save on my bait by seeing what is biting, my bait still dwindles away. Bait isn't supposed to be used until it is reeled in, but while bait is sitting in the water, it will dwindle away every time user gets a bite.
  • All of the new light furniture are not emitting the right color of light (e.g., Boreal Wood Candelabra emitting yellow light instead of blue, Ebonwood Lamp not emitting any light at all, etc.)
  • Bottled butterflies graphical glitch: corrupt graphics sometimes show in place of original animation.
  • Ultrabright Torches from the Traveling Merchant don’t produce light when held, and when you break them, the item doesn’t drop.
  • The NPC heads in the mini-map appear to be too big.
  • Worm Duplication Glitch using Rainbow Bricks.
  • Torches have substandard animation.
  • Tooltips appear to be wrong (e.g. Naugthy Present: “15% bait power. Use as bait.”).
  • Firefly animation bug (light source).
  • Vanity Accessory Slot? (Q1 Update)
  • Worms and Grasshoppers are quite slow to spawn.
  • Enemy Spawn Rate is too low.
  • Sunflowers bloom their light before nightfall.
  • Maps show wrong color when viewed.
  • Traveling Merchant arriving message.
  • Rain becomes fast when using touchscreen on point placing.
  • Destroyer's laser and healing orbs given by the Spectre Armor are too big.
  • Hammer (Joystick Coordination)
  • Terrain Generation (Q1 Update)
Reported to QA/Dev on December 14, 2015:
  • The game decided to consume a bee mount as a potion, and it disappeared (Nickxy)
  • Using Builder Potion and placing bars will cause item to duplicate (dark_lord)
  • The Hardmode dungeon mobs besides the teleporting caster skeletons are not attacking the player. They only seem to do contact damage but they don't aim for the player. Also, the paladin doesn't attack the player and he only do contact damage. (Android)
  • Picksaw doesn't work/disappears after being used (Nickxy)
  • Robes do not appear fully on mannequins
  • Torches sometimes don't appear in hand when selected
  • Enchanted swords seem to appear far more frequently
Reported to QA/Dev on December 13, 2015:
  • “Failed fetching download URL" (Android) - Player crashes after notification.
  • Animal capturing not working properly (iOS) - If host captures animal, animal is still visible on guest devices and able to be killed.
  • Pirate Invasion, Frost Legion, and Goblin Invasion not summoning in world (iOS) - Able to summon the Pirate Invasion and Frost Legion one time in my world, but was able to only once, and the Goblins can't be summoned at all.
  • The top and bottom 20-30 blocks have become inaccessible since the last update (Android) - Stuff is inaccessible at the top of the world and the bottom of the world that was originally fine. Players have chests and items at the bottom of the world.
  • Player can't open any web-covered chests, water chests, shadow chests, sky chests, gold chests, or any if the dungeon biome chests (Android) - Player can only open the wooden ones and the ones they have placed themselves.
  • Game freezes and crashes seemingly at random (Android) - Freezes for about 3 seconds, animation stops, but player can still hear music and fighting/killing/getting hurt sounds, so the game still plays, but they can't see anything because the animation is frozen. After that 3 seconds, instant crash.

Whew! Did you get all of that? :) Apologies for any typos, duplicates, or other errors, but we wanted to make sure to get this out there for everyone ASAP. Additional updates coming soon, although you may very well receive the next patch before we get this mammoth post updated. That's what we're hoping for anyway. :)

Thanks again for your patience and understanding, and Happy Holidays everyone!

I've been waiting for the Amazon update for a month and a half please quickly update Amazon I know about the bugs and stuff and I respect that you're doing your best to exterminate all bugs, but I love terraria and love to play it on my tablet rather than my Samsung phone. After all its a bigger screen so I would really appreciate if the update were to come out sooner.

Your Terrarian,
Optimus
