Is there a way to ZOOM IN on the clipboard?
The writing is so tiny and I can't see very well. We are playing this in the living room on our TV and squinting the whole time just trying to read what's on it. The clipboard appears on the left side of the screen so there must be a way to focus on it and put it up in front of your face and scroll it down maybe?

We love the game please help us

There is currently no way to zoom in but I'm actually gravitating towards giving the ability to display it in plain text on screen when a button is pressed. That way it is nice and large. It's a re-implementation of part of the system and I'm working on adding French translation atm so it wont be in right away.

Oh wow thanks for the reply.

Plain text would be nice of course. I was thinking of something like Far Cry 2 where there are two "levels" of focus. One normal and one where the list zooms even more to the center of the screen and you can scroll up or down. In my mind it would've been less work creating a new position for an existing game asset than an whole new system of plain text but you know you code.

Thank you for the game. Very well done project.

In this case, it's actually better to throw up some UI. I still want the player to be able to see things out of the corner of their eye when the clipboard is up and zooming them in will hinder that. You can see the WIP of what I'm building here:

I started it today after this thread so it's still new but should be done soon!

Oh I see yeah that's actually pretty nicely done and doesn't pull you out of the world too much.

Thank you so much
