Font size

Post by jungelsj_slith »

I have an issue with the font size in some windows of the game - very often the font is large enough that a lot of information is missing as it scrolls off the right side of the window. Didn't seen an option anywhere to change this, and it doesn't look like you can adjust window size?

See attached - in the C3 tab on the upper right, you can see that information is going off the right side of the screen.

Something simple I'm missing?

Well, 2 minutes later and I figure it out. Look's like it's an issue when you choose the larger windows appearance option under screen resolution. (Control panel -> Display) With the medium option, it's fine.

Would be great if the game played nicely with those options, but it's not a showstopper.

Which windows version are you running? Font scaling messes with a few of the controls we use (and others use). We did do adjustments within our ability to address in the code, but some items are within the core code of other components. A number of other designers using other languages hit the same snag with Windows 8. It defaults into a 125% font scale.

Glad you figured it out. [8D]

Enjoy the game.
OTS is looking forward to Southern Storm getting released!
