Another glitch

[Vocorus]

So I was playing along, doing so well. Got to the space stage, since I have already played it I chose the option to not learn how to fly, all very well and good. However, as a starter mission you must fly to each city and enter those glowing sphere's above them.

Since you're given 100k to start with, I decided to upgrade my cities to the max to produce more spice for me, since I was Trader spec this would increase my spice ten-fold. While doing this, I decided to fly to each city and upgrade while getting the glowing sphere's at the same time, two birds one stone.

When I had finished upgrading my cities and had got all the spheres, the mission log required me to open my Communications Panel. This is there the glitch occurred, no matter how many times I pushed buttons, nothing happened. The ship would fly along happily and entering cities was fine, but I couldn't open the C-Panel, nor could I open the Sporepedia Browser. Options menu worked fine.

Unfortunately, you can't save until you enter space and you can't enter space until you complete the mission. I didn't save in the Civilization stage, stupid of me I know - but I wasn't expecting this to occur and this is the first time it's done it.

Spore Dev Team, any chance of a patch release sometime in the near future? You guys did a great job with Spore, just need to get those bugs ironed out guys (and girls)

Anyway, I'm not here asking for help, just more for general information - and maybe a Spore Dev will notice this and have a look at the problem and hopefully fix it and the other bugs.
