Hi

I assume the screen utilities prints via the main ui system (creates a screen within the world). But I'd recon it could work within subtle messages by using a long string [[]].
(You don't have to implement this, but I personally think its a cool use of long strings.)

[reef citrus]

screen utilities creates a screen in the world you can send frames to

[nocturne bramble]

Oh fair enough

But do you personally think it could work within subtle messages?

[reef citrus]

why would you need a library for that instead of just giving the rendered frame to the modding API?

[nocturne bramble]

The library already has utilities for managing pixels (which makes everything easier), so the output could be sent to a function that puts it into the subtle message instead of an object in the world...
Additionally this would have better compatibility with any animation/images made for the 'screen utilities' library.
