UI scaling warning
Posted: Sun Dec 22, 2019 6:35 am
I started testing the latest patch and it's beta changes yesterday. All in all it worked well. But some way into the game I decided to change the UI settings. First I tried 1,25 %, found it surprisingly refreshing and went to test it even more. Changing to 1,75 % got me panels covering much of the map, but I found that rather nice too. Somehow it was much easier to order hardware, fiddle with convoys, etcetera.
It was when I were about to save the game that a problem dawned upon me. My latest change had put the rightmost upper buttons outside the screen. Thus I could neither advance the turn, nor save or access the options to alter any settings. I have to leave the game the hard way.
Either the top panel should remain unscaled when the others are changed, or the upper button rows must be made to move closer to each other when the scaling takes place. Or maybe there should be a limiting of how far the scaling can go.
Otherwise, the patch seems nice.
P.S. I play in 1920x1280.
