Space Merchants: Arena build 1.256 - profile fix for Mac OS X

In build 1.256 of Space Merchants: Arena game for Mac OS X we have unfortunately introduced a bug which changed internal name of the game (bundle) and thus name of saved player profile.

If you were playing previous version of the game, your profile is still safe, but build 1.256 creates newly named empty profile which you see in your current game. To fix this and load your original profile you can use following steps to overwrite the profile file:

  1. Run Finder
  2. Hold option key (alt) and open "Go" menu. You should see "Library" between Home and Computer. Select it.
  3. In "Library" folder open "Preferences" folder.
  4. Here you should see files with the old profile (unity.Playito.Space Merchants/ Arena.plist) and the new profile (unity.Playito.SMA.plist).

    1. Make sure the game is not running, if it is, close it first.
    2. First of all create a backup of both of these files just to be safe (either select them and copy to other location, e.g. desktop, or select Duplicate on them).
    3. Then delete (move to trash) file unity.Playito.SMA.plist (this is the new empty profile from game build 1.256)
    4. Then rename file unity.Playito.Space Merchants/ Arena.plist (your original old profile) to unity.Playito.SMA.plist
    5. Run the game again. You should see your original profile with your progress.

Sorry for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding. Let us know if you encounter any problems to info@playito.com.

Yours faithfully
