[QUOTE="jaredmorgs, post: 167928, member: 459"] A separate issue here is one that [MENTION=2280]Baron Rubik[/MENTION] and many others have raised on numerous occasions. That is the saved_data file being in the /system/data/data/com.farsight.../ directory. Unless you are rooted, you can't access this file. What you need to do is move this into /sdcard/Android/data/com.Farsight.../ This is the bit in Post#20 that I was suggesting would need a mv script to be implemented in the build and move the data over. I would suggest a staged approach to this. When installing the beta with this feature implemented, I would suggest moving the data with the appropriate command first, but leaving the old data in the old /data/data/ location. Or at least making a .bak or something we could fall back to. Once you've done that, you could get the app to move the saved_data over to the correct /sdcard/Android/data/com.farsight.../ structure. The other option here is to "just implement" (in scare quotes because I know it's not as simple as "just implement") GPG services and have cloud save sync the data across all your devices. A quick and dirty mv command would probably suffice in the short term though and solve an issue that has been hanging ever since the game was released back in 2012. [/QUOTE]
