I've brought this up before, but I did a little messing around to see what might have caused it and it seems the save editing nothing to do with it at all. In short, the java version of the game doesn't seem to like the adobe air version. Attached are two save files, one converted from the Adobe Air version and never modified, and one made in the Java version. For whatever reason, the Java version is the only one allowed to leave FIRST-14. The converted file just has the option to fly grayed out, leaving me trapped.
