The circle is now complete. I re-found this thread today, surprised I started it, and now have learned the Feb 23 update was already auto-installed on my iPad Pro. This comes at a great time for me in my FTL journey, as I setup my current iPad Pro 11” from scratch (not from an FTL-game containing backup) following an unfortunate incident involving coffee faced by its dearly departed predecessor. I also randomly again pinged Subset Games on twitter Feb 15 just a week before the update finally dropped asking again about when an update might drop!
