Can t read text and numbers (too small)

[Laboratorium]

Is there a way to get numbers and text to about the double size at which the game is delivered and can there be an easy readable font in order to make it more accessable (or give some accessibilty)?

The selection screen in main campaign where you pick the nation is bugged. When I scroll or zoom for a while the screen gets black for like 5 seconds...

Obviously some memory leak.

Does not happen in the campaign.

Is there a way to avoid defeat in turn 3 vs a stronger neigbour who send more and better troops? Or are weak nations just for show in this game?

How to move vassal armies that just sit and chill out there is war?

Where do I see how authority is gained in my realm?

Why is a decission totally bankrupting my realm? Why is there no clear description that it will cost double the treasury?
Tried to get some information on what vassels do in the help screen, but there is nothing explaining a system here...

My rating so far: please refund...

there is a font.txt in the system subfolder of the game.

About doubaling the sizes make good sence. Most UI elements do not resize to the font.
And many have sliders to read the text.

The worst thing, is that the Legger and Diplomacy windows are not linked to any obvious font group and prevent seeing the statistics like how many Authority is gained.

I have tried making some text groups very small to find out, which one is used. But I can not find out.

What a crap UI...

Also using outher resolutions in the options menu does not have an impact on the scaling.

Ok, the ledger is using the default font hand has no right left sliders. So you either make everything very small to be able to see the Authority stuff and have problems looking at everything else.

Or you make it decently large and can not see half of the Ledger tables

What a crap system. None tested this on laptop? Product rushed out to make some coins...

You're having trouble seeing some of the text, so the product has been rushed out? Unfortunate that the many months of beta testing, with 100s of testers, was so rushed...

You can tweak the text sizes in a number of ways - ingame via the options, using the OPTIONS.TXT file for even more. Or there is an alternate font file generated by one of the users as per here:

Hopefully one of those will make the text large enough for you to read it.

Use the middle mouse button to scroll.

Not obvious given it has not been reported yet by our testers. I would say more a driver or hardware issue. Please contact support@slitherine.co.uk so they can help you.

If you play a small nation, you could be at the mercy of a big one if you are unlucky. Kingdoms does not try to make all nations equal. Some small nations are safe (or safer). It’s not like chess, where each side has an equal chance to win.

How to move vassal armies that just sit and chill out there is war?

You can reach out to them through the Diplomacy Panel and set your policy toward them to "Full Call." Depending on your relations, they might eventually agree to your demand and give you their entire army.

Where do I see how authority is gained in my realm?

The Authority value in the top bar has a tooltip with a breakdown of income and expenses. You can also hover over the icons in your regions to see if you receive a bonus from good stewardship, noble visits, or special events like the Witan for an English faction.

The cost is printed as a temporary message when you play it, it is also indicated in the decisions panel. Vassals get a tooltip about how you control them in the Diplomacy Panel.
