Not sure if this has been asked before but will there be a "Move to SD Card" option in the future? I know it's only 4mb or so but every bit helps (using a Nexus One).

Use Titanium backup to move it, works with some apps that don't support move, does for this

Is there a swiss version of boards? Or a swiss android forum you could post it on?

Yeah there is a small forum, will have to post it there. Already sent the word out on facebook

Congrats on the front page of XDA.
Keep the updates coming.
Really enjoying it, running out of humans to infect tho.

Cheers but it seems that's only for rooted phones, I forgot to mention mine isn't rooted. Not to worry I'll hold out and see if the option appears.

People have posted about seeing users in Melbourne and other places but I'm not seeing markers on my map. I'm only seeing users in Ireland...

Hold you finger down on oz for a couple of seconds, you should see a message saying "Getting remote users". That will load users around the area where you pressed. I can't display all users at once because the phone probably couldn't handle it. I just show the 50 nearest you, and then you can show the 50 nearest any other point by doing a long press.

Can you do a more detailed break down in the Infected tab - ie by country etc. Having to hold your finger down on random places in the world is quite cumbersome.

I'm infected! Fùckers. I'm going to drive around Dublin infecting everyone :cool:

I will be adding this sort of information in the future yes. Beta is a work in progress, adding stuff as I go. Getting the game play done first, then I will be pumping out all sorts of stats.

Class!

So many users now!

BTW, I'm on SE X8 and it's working fine.

Berlin is infection free.

Some ideas OP (I haven't read through the full thread so they may have been suggested already);

1. What if survivors who have a close call with an infected, (ie they get in range of the infected but the guy who is infected doesn't open the app during that time) get more resilient - they're considered a stronger survivor. So if a zombie does try to attack them, they have a chance of fighting off the zombie.

2. You could "hide" supplies in different parts of the map, and a survivor can click to search. This could be weaponry or defenses - defenses could mean they can ward off a zombie attack for a period of time, weaponry means they can shotgun blast some zombies off the map :cool:

3. Two survivors in close range of each other have a better chance of killing one zombie, so a zombie has to take a risk if he wants to pick on closely located survivors. You could scale this up for more zombies/more survivors.

4. Award badges for different achievements. The longest crawl (a zombie infecting someone miles away from where they were first infected). The longest escape (a survivor travelling the furthest distance before being infected. Ryanair anyone?

). Zombie killer - someone who killed the most zombies. Most hungry - the most infectious zombie. etc etc...I'm sure there are loads you could do.

There's a survivor in Tashkent, Uzbekistan. Might organise a trip there to infect him just to piss him off

Was bed-bound all week so I missed out on a few infections! Game seems to be holding up well with all of the XDA influx too!
