I have noticed this from some TADS games (never from z-machine games).  In 
particular, I've never seen the Adventions TADS games (Unkuulian etc) have this 
problem. For the games that do have this problem, I can reproduce the error 
using the official tads command line interpreter and restoring a saved game as 
a command line argument rather than from within the game.  Because of this, I 
think its really an issue in either the TADS interpreter or story file.  There 
may be a way I could work around the problem by making the Android app actually 
call a restore command from within the game once it is up and running, rather 
than passing the save file to the interpreter as an argument.  I will do some 
more thinking about the problem, but its likely I will not do any actual work 
on it until after I upgrade TADS to the latest version interpreter.
