FlightControl Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 Is there a way to tabulate text in messages appearing to players in the game? Because of the non-proportional font of the messages appearing, it is very difficult to show a table structure in a nice formatted way. If it would be possible to embed a \t in a message string, that would be great. (\t does not work...)

Grimes Posted February 29, 2016 Posted February 29, 2016 I was actually thinking of putting in a bug report on it. I was trying to figure out how to best get the slmod stats aligned so I was investigating text a bit. Suffice to say this font isn't the best for getting alignment.

FlightControl Posted March 5, 2016 Author Posted March 5, 2016 Have a proportional font or have tab functionality. The advantage of non-proportional fonts is that it allows to have more text on the screen. Tabulation would be better... But this may be harder to implement I guess...
