Shorter Screens? Suggestion from a noob. :P
« on: October 31, 2011, 09:43:23 AM »
Hey people, if this has been suggested before im sorry but i don't really know what to search.

Is it possible to get the Aurora screens shorted to fit within a resolution of 1366 x 700.  IT would help me be able to play and im sure other people would benefit.   ;)

There is a "reduced height windows" option in the "Game Parameters" menu.

I don't know if it will be enough tho.  Aurora is clearly made to be played with a higher resolution.

I hope it menaces with spikes of Duranium and is adorned with hanging rings of Corbomite!

That only brings the vertical resolution down to 900 on selected screens.  I highly doubt Steve will reduce it further.  Non-reduced minimum resolution is 1024.

Reducing it significantly further would require a GUI redesign, which... while I would love that, is unlikely short term before Aurora II.
