Auto- scaling ALL sizes (fonts, images, aspect ratios).

[tohtamish]

Hello all,

can anybody remind me how to get system variable of screen size and define all game vars according to that? For example positions of displaying images like 1/3 of screen height and 1/3 of screen width (game window screen both for windowed and fullcreen mode). I mean setting all X's and Y's like: 0.3*max_X, 0.3*max_Y. Where are they, those vars and what are the functions for them?

Thanks!

You can set relative positions like

Code: Select all

pos (0.3, 0.5)
align (0.5, 0.5)

The game resolution is set by config.screen_height and config.screen_width variables (https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/config.h ... een_height), so one can use them like

Code: Select all

$ x = config.screen_height / 2

Also, you can get the phisical size of game window in pixels - https://www.renpy.org/doc/html/other.ht ... sical_size

Thanks, but how about font size? If game runs on big screens - how can I increase it automatically?

Actually, all you need is to set game resolution and use appropriate font size and images - if player runs the game on a big screen it will be automatically scaled up.
