UI font too small

The eco numbers in the UI overlay are too small imo. I have a hard time reading them. The font and the transparency are making the problem even worse imo.



Anybody else with this problem?

I agree. Especially the numbers in the lower left are way too small.
I expect this all to change.

Photoshop time!



I would like a simple, clear digital font for all numbers. It's easy to read and has little problems with contrast, especially if you add a little shadow behind it. Extra props if you replace the shadow with a black glow.

Giant extra kudos if you put a little room between hundreds and thousands to make it even easier to read.

i sure the reason for small fonts, there is no full screen mode yet!
most games that i played in window at 1920-1080 always seems the fonts are smaller and blur not sure why! perhaps my GCard or monitor is to blame i dont recall it always being like this until, last pc upgrade..

so bottom line, not sure if its this game or hardware..

For the first few builds, I edited out the "...\Planetary Annihilation\PA\media\ui\alpha\live_game\live_game.css" file to give bigger numbers

Then I got lazy.......... :shock:

It's probably mentioned by oithers elsewhere, but I
also have problems with the whole width of the
slideout box. It obscures the build menu options,
and doesn't always retract without first selecting
a different unit.

I feel that the layout of the box can be improved,
to reduce "screen wastage".

And yes, I DO know that this is Alpha!

According to simple test:

Code:

Uber never changed this file, so you probably only need to keep this file without updating.

Interesting. Everytime it updates though, it obviously downloads the default, but just replacing the whole file each time is easier than finding/replacing all the font values!
