Holy crap! I didn't even know Chinese would actually show up in the game. How does it look?

Looks pretty fine :) I think unity supports Chinese language quite well.
Although I'm not sure if it is going to work in a computer that does not have chinese fonts installed.

From the July 29th Changelog:
- All GUI text functionality is now cleanly wrapped in the Text class. This allowed huge optimizations on font handling.

So perhaps for the next Alpha?
I like how this game can result in quotes that would be quite unnerving when said in public, out of context. - Myself

The dubious quotes list is now public. See it here

Unfortunately changing font size is extremely difficult and won't happen soon. This is because all the alignment of every GUI layout in the game assumes the current sizes. Some of them might work with a different text size. Others... not so much.

It even runs into problems with things like larger text sizes needing larger windows to show the same info, which means you run into the 1024x768 limit at some point. It's doable, but the work is quite significant.

Hmm...I suppose not all windows can have a scrollbar, huh? Things like tooltip balloons can't have one. I guess this needs more thinking.

Tip balloons can just get bigger. That's one of the easiest cases.

As I say, this is totally possible, but it's difficult. Each interface has to be rethought, one by one.

I'm just curious, but why don't you use the screen.width and screen.height properties from unity? You could have a bool for aspect ratio (16:9 or 4:3 default) and scale for each element inside those cases.

At least in the few things I've made in Unity it's seemed to work fine all the way up from 1024x768-2048x1536/1280x720-1920x1080...they are all RPGs so I have utterly stupid amounts of UI elements.

You can scale the alignment in this manner as well. It takes a bit more than screen.height/width / x, but it's not too bad.

PS: I found your debug menu in the pre-alpha 254, and just googled around, and I don't see any other reference to it. May I ask if it's still there? Thought I'd ask since I found you on here :)

Tynan

You can't just blindly scale everything because lots of things look awful when not pixel-aligned. Like all images and all fonts.
