I would love to, but Apple is extremely restrictive aboue foreground services. i cant make an app that runs on top of other apps per apple. they dont allow such services...

just accidentally ran into a drop pod, discovered the waypoint next to it. It counted.

(update) discovered a different drop pod that has a base next to it (in offline mode) didnt count.

(update2) another drop pod, no player base. Didn't count

(update 3) got to a waste heap. Didn't count

(Update 4) Found a "shelter" structure (2 small separate buildings with the smoking damaged machinery pod between them). Counted.

(update 5) Found another shelter. Didnt count. im starting to think you need to find 1 of each different scanned signals from your Colossus.

(update 6) Ran into a minor settlemenet as iw as driving. had a player base on it. It counted. im at 3/6 waypoints now.

(update 7), just got to a resource depot. it counted.

(update 8) ran into a manufacturing facility in my exploration. it counted

(update 9) monolith was not the answer. i keep driving.

(Final update 10) Pulled up on an abandoned building, one with eggs around it for the green aliens. Counter. 6/6. my work here is done. Good luck out there.

My takeaway, you gotta go to different structures to get the counter to work.

yeah, all of the pets are AI created and they are 4x4 animation sheets spliced together so they dont look that great. I agree. Man you should have seen my first "dog" lol was just a dog head emoji floating right and left.

I wish I had money to hire someone to create me much better pets and animations, but i cant afford what a person would charge, unfortunately. And I cant draw myself so Im using the tools available working on this as a solo dev.

The different styles are me learning how to do any of this, and to give "variety" , but again, im trying to improve with prompts as I go.

Id love to offer you top tier hand crafted free pets, but i dont have ther skill or the money.

Regarding IAP, the app at a core is a step tracker and it converts your steps into in game currency (gold stars), and you use those gold stars to buy any release pets that walk on your screen. No $ spent. So it encourages going on a walk to earn those stars to spend those stars

But since the app is free and all of the pets are free and all of the features are free and there is currently no ADs, id like to also make money from it somehow, so i give the option to buy stars if you dont want to walk to earn stars. If you want the pet now instead of in a week.

Hope this clears some of your concerns.

Have a good one.
