What's New: Added background image and tailored the history buttons to be more appealing. Description: I've been playing this game off and on for about a year to play with a friend of mine, and he was commenting to me how annoying it was to have to alt-tab to a browser to check the wiki for info and risk being exposed and vulnerable while the game was not the active window, and then the lag and reload when alt-tabbing back. He wanted an app to browse the wiki, so I took up the challenge. It took me a while to figure it out, but here it is. This app makes your wiki experience easier by taking it off the computer so you won't have to alt-tab every time you want to read a wiki page. All you have to do is look it up in the app and carry out the necessary action in the game without ever having to reallocate your computer's resources. I hope this app is found useful. Please download it and try it out. The only permission required is Full Internet Access in order to access the wurmwiki website. Screenshots!: The two logo images in this app are directly from the wurmwiki webpage, and thus are not mine. The history buttons and background I made by modifying screenshots I took ingame. Here's the original post: http://forum.wurmonl...-wurm-wiki-app/ I have been in communication with a GM about my app in regards to the closing of the original thread. I have resolved the major issues with this app that caused the original thread to be locked and the link removed, but it still is not on the Play Store because that costs money. This means you still have to enable unknown sources. To enable "Unknown Sources", goto... Settings -> Applications -> Unknown Sources or Settings -> Security -> Unknown Sources To ease the concerns of the user Archaegeo from the original thread (and others who share a similar apprehension), there are no viruses, the app has no permissions to modify any files, and it is written to only access the wurmwiki page. Bugs: The only one that I know of is when you tap a link on a wiki page to load another wiki page, it momentarily shows a "page not found" page. This has something to do with the Asynctask process where the page is downloaded and processed in the background while the web browsing activity happens in the foreground. The page loads about a second or two later. File: If I haven't scared you away by saying the words Issues, Unknown, Viruses, Permissions, Modify, and The, then click on the link and check out my app and let me know if it helps you out! https://dl.dropbox.c...80/WurmWiki.apk If you are reading this in your browser on your computer, you can use a barcode scanner on this image to download to your phone!

I've been playing this game off and on for about a year to play with a friend of mine, and he was commenting to me how annoying it was to have to alt-tab to a browser to check the wiki for info and risk being exposed and vulnerable while the game was not the active window, and then the lag and reload when alt-tabbing back. He wanted an app to browse the wiki, so I took up the challenge. It took me a while to figure it out, but here it is. The app is in beta right now as I am not overly well-versed in Java. There are still many bugs, and I had to decrease some android security to allow me to parse a webpage without making an asynchronous task (android doesn't like doing two things at once, but it's at such a small scale that it's not too big a deal). The app will be in beta until I figure out asyncing. Also, the app is not on the play store yet for a couple reasons: 1. It costs money, and I don't have $25 lying around to spend on it. 2. The reduced security. I'm pretty sure this won't be allowed on the market. In order to install, you have to enable "Unknown Sources". Settings -> Applications -> Unknown Sources or Settings -> Security -> Unknown Sources I hope this app is found useful. Please download it and try it out. The current permissions required are Full Internet Access and Modify SD Card Contents. The first is obvious, and the second is obsolete. I no longer store data on the sdcard, but I just forgot to remove the permission request for it. I will remove it in the next update.
