[0.15.6] Some font glyphs not rendered

Post by Lezreth »

All of the numbers I set in combinators, inserters, etc disappeared. Ex when connecting an inserter to a chest with a red/green wire and setting it's enabled condition to iron ore < 2k, the '2k' no longer shows up in the box. The inserter still operates as it is expected to and the number appears in the select a signal box, it's just not displayed in the inserter, or combinator or anything else.

I am currently using the steam version with no mods.

When I went back into the game today to take a screenshot, the numbers returned. I took a screenshot anyway for reference, posted below. Last night they had disappeared sometime in the middle of the game running. I attached both the current and previous log files just in case.
The space with the number had went blank about halfway through last nights session
The box the number was in was also darker in color when the number had disappeared.

It's a known issue with our fonts and not related to the circuit network.

I renamed the topic for easier sorting.

hi guys,

I see the followup that it's a known issue, but I'll post this pic in case you might need in any way.

I'm afraid it isn't. Just had this for the "4" character in my game. A restart fixed it.
Initially it might be related to me switching a second screen on (win+p to extended screen) during the game load screen (the one directly after starting, not loading of a save game).

Hi,
I believe it's to do with the UI scaling and the UI not using subpixel rendering. The screenshot was taken at 70% UI scaling at the image resolution and is missing the hyphen.

It took me a very long time to find out that you could have negative numbers in a combinator because of this.
You are even able to find UI scaling values & resolutions where the hyphen appears and disappears as you move the window around the screen.

We increased the minimum UI scale to 80%.
When the game is being loaded and weird things are done, like screen switching etc. Weird results can happen.
