Title: Android Modding? Post by: timezone34 on January 28, 2013, 04:02:59 pm Hello.
I am a new player of UQM. I am really loving the game, until I learned that this game has a time limit. While browsing, I learned of a mod that pushes the time limit 200 years. I want to use it, but I am playing on my android phone. Would it be possible to mod the android version? If not I was thinking to hook my savegame to the pc version where I have the mod installed, and place the save on my phone, hopefully retaining the mod's script. Thanks :) Title: Re: Android Modding?

You probably want to ask the maintainers of the Android port for help if you can't figure it out yourself.
I'm not familiar with the source code, but I don't think the year of the death march is determined by a save file, so your backup plan wouldn't work. Title: Re: Android Modding?

It isn't unfortunately, it will be necessary to apply the de-cleansing mod patch (http://sourceforge.net/projects/uqm-mods/files/De-Cleansing%20Mod/0.7.0/uqm-0.7.0-dcm.diff/download) and recompile the game. The de-cleansing mod isn't all that big, so it would probably apply cleanly to the Android source code. Title: Re: Android Modding?

Thanks anyway for responding :) |
