I got crap for vision and a lot of pixels on my monitor. When I set the text font size larger, it only seems to set some of the font larger. A lot of the text stays the same. Is it possible to make it so that ALL game text increases in size? Or I'll provide some examples of what I mean.
These images are a compare between the standard and largest. As you can see, i only changed the title itself. Not the text inside.

Some of the text is controlled also by windows iirc
But yeah we use basically a highly customized version of Irrilict (old game engine). It doesn't have the best UI scaling.

Another post about font size with some comments.

I see I see. I'll have to mess with windows and see if it affects the font. The GUI itself isnt too much a concern for me, though admitedly I never actually look at it cause its so small lmao I just try to memorize hotkeys
ty~
Tho i guess font is part of gui... i just think of gui as the icons

I think mission text actually might be reasonable to make it scale
Ill add a task to investigate..some stuff isn't.

At the very least, this windows setting (Not the font) does zoom expand everything on the monitor so its a decent work around
fossil umbra
Yeah that affects some text ingame
prime dawn
Boy does it absolute wreck the uhh image clarity tho lmao things a lil blurry
fossil umbra
😂

well the good news is I sorted out how to make most text scale now.
normal
Largest
There's various parts of client that get cut off - so I'll have to improve that before I can finish.
prime dawn
Wooo actually larger fonts~ Hope it keeps working out great

Now add resizeable MC and scanner boxes and we're golden

It's actually hilarious that you asked for those things specifically, because Xen was working on that like last week iirc

Will this text scaling work on right click windows as well? Example: Transfer -> Ship Selection

@upper goblet fyi caues I know that was your thing for a bit

Big if true

jecht is still polishing some stuff on this because certain text elements were never designed with scaling in mind and will look REALLY sloppy if we just fire this into the live client. Stuff like dropdown menus and other elements that would just randomly clip half the character if we sized too large.

I would actually consider playing with larger text if dropdowns expanded as well. Would help a lot with the miss-clicks playing on a big screen.
fossil umbra
Which drop downs are you referring to?
upper goblet
Not Nuke but the ones I have difficulty with my screen resolution is the right side menu (leave stasis, show status, etc...) the right click context menus (in ship/base inventory, in possessions tab, in tradebays when changing prices).
very very very rarely the squad tab actions e.g. "promote as leader" and team tab e.g. "promote" actions
fossil umbra
Right click Context menu are not same as drop down menus
But yeah that's the huge one
Drop down menus are like station dock perms
Just so we all using same language. 🙂
I mean they technically are..
I'm also not critiquing you. I'm tired apparently
upper goblet
My brain expands with knowledge, no worries 😛
I was also thinking about nameplates, but tbh, that can get hairy fast
fossil umbra
Yeah... Idk about that one.
river mica
Right click Context menu are not same as drop down menus
Mainly meant context, but agree with all the Yuugh ones as well.
