Beginners' Technical Questions / Re: GUI not resizing after cha...

Last post by heltenjon - Thu 16/11/2023 04:48:53

I'm primarily noting this because you seemed to want to upscale the GUI graphics automatically. There's no good reason I can think of to ever want to do this.

I think the point may be that the option seems to indicate that the GUIs will just work if you upscale.   As a new user, you want the inventory window, options menu etc. to just be there and work properly without having to make them from scratch. (Frankly, I wish the option would work that way, too. But you have explained adequately why it doesn't.)

Generally the host doesn't enter. Occasionally they might still post a story but declare it as not an official entry.

In this occasion though, considering the three of you had been discussing the themes in PM, it's not as though Rootbound has had much more of a head start than the others, so I don't really mind if the host enters in this case.

In fact I'm not particularly against it anyway, especially if it means more entries.

Love this understanding of our hallowed rules.  Cue further debate! 

I mean, if I'm wrong that's totally fine--I would sort of feel weird about entering while hosting anyway.    I'm hoping we get enough participation that I won't need to enter. 

Spoiler

I actually did just sit down and write something short, though. Because I wanted to.    We'll see whether it's necessary to enter it.

My understanding is that the hosts may also write entries....

There is already a fix for the keyboard shortcuts that will be in the next 3.6.1 release! (now the issue is understood more in depth we are evaluating some details around this)

The background still isn't finished (and I haven't even started the interior) but little by little I am making progress. Here's a detail from it, just because I'm happy about this little 13x9 pixel frog.

Thanks! I'll use that method for now, then. Right-clicking and selecting "paste" also works.
