Moving save files on Android devices.

[oscan]

A few people have been asking about moving their game data from one Android device to another, as there is currently no form of cloud save available within the game.

In order to access the files, on either device, you would typically need root permissions, as the file are stored in the /data folder, which is typically restricted access.

***A quick word from the Ivory League of Disclaimers***
We're NOT giving directions on how to root your device and accept no responsibility on issues that may arise. Basically if you're not sure what to do, then DON'T do it!


If you have rooted devices then you can find the files at (user may vary):

/data/user/0/air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering/com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering/Local Store/

You'll want any *.sav files. e.g. slot1.sav. Copy those to the similar location on the new device (with the game already installed), then you should be able to resume playing on save slots copied over as normal.

I haven't actually tested it, but in theory this should also work across platforms, i.e. PC to Android, but there may be minor differences in the ways the platforms save those files that could prevent them loading correctly.

There's an easier way, using the "adb backup" feature.

1. Install adb (Android Debugger) on your system and get it working with your old and new Android device. Search online for instructions, it can be somewhat involved.
2. On the old device, backup GoD via "adb backup -noapk air.com.gambrinous.guildofdungeoneering"
3. On the new device, install GoD from the Google Play Store. This is necessary because "adb restore" will not install the game, but merely place some of the files on the device. Note: if GoD is already installed on the new device, you should Force Stop it first. It's probably really bad to restore the game while it's actually running on the device.
4. On the new device, use "adb restore backup.ab" to restore the backup to it. This will override some of the installed files, include the saved game.

When you launch GoD, it should have your progress restored.

Will the android version ever gonna be updated or something? I used to own it on old devices but no longer supported for newer devices.
