Large / Increased UI Please

Post by slitherfrank »

Hello. I just purchased this game for Xmas. It works fine, but the UI is very small. I have a large tv for a monitor, and 4k. I play the game windowed at 1440p. No matter which res I use the UI is too small. Yes I could play in 1080 fullscreen, yet I feel for everyone, and the future it would be worth making a hi-res UI option. Please, and thank you, and happy holidays to everyone 2020.

Wholeheartedly agree. I have begged for one more level of zoom many times. The details on the counters are almost unreadable; I have to lean close to the screen when I need to read those tiny numbers. Love the game, but haven't had this problem with any other game. Hey Bill and Hubert! Please fix this!

Hi guys,

since this game basically behaves like a windows application, you can use win10's magnify function while playing (assuming you are on win, of course).
This workaround is anything but perfect, but at least you won't ruin your eyes.
Apart from that, yeah hi-res UI option would definitly be a plus.

I'll have to try this. Btw I'm using a 43" TV so it's not like my screen is small, and it's still difficult to see the UI.

Another option would be to go into settings and change the game to run at a lower resolution like 1600 x 900. This makes everything on the screen appear closer in, but unfortunately a bit blurrier.

Yeah, lowering the resolution is definitely the first thing to try (Had to do it too).
Use the magnify tool only if even that is not enough.
