ALT-tabbing chnages screen size
« on: January 16, 2008, 01:33:00 pm »
ALT-Tabbing back to windows in the game naming screen before map generation changes the visible screen to an ever smaller one (so that text gets bigger) for every ALT-TAB ALT-TAB

Version df_27_169_33g.zip
OS Windows 2000

It doesn't fix the bug, but you'll be able to restore the normal size without having to restart the game.

I assume it isn't supposed to happen, in which case it's a bug.

I remember various other games using ascii display to have the same problem. Which doesn't mean that I didn't hate to see this fixed, but just that I didn't see it as a bug and that's why I never reported it...  :p
