[LOGGED] Request: Make map tiling resolution configurable (Was: Regression in map resolution)

Post by arbiter787 »

The resolution of map layers was massively improved in B1852, but it seems to have regressed back to B1825 levels sometime between B1868 and B1892 (the last version I played was B1859, which didn't have this issue).

I should have taken comparison screenshots when my game was still on B1859, but the change in clarity should be immediately apparent upon downgrading the game to that version.

Confirmed.

The problem here is that the massive jump in resolution was "paid" with rendering A LOT more tiles on the map at any given time, and this translated to a substantial drop in performance / responsiveness. It may not be noticeable on your specific machine, but it was in others.

This may potentially be worth being made a configurable setting, so that each user can finetune this to his individual machine's capabilities and their personal level of comfort with lag.
