Increase width of map screen edge texture overlay for 4K resolution

Post by Usul »

Hi!

I have transitioned to playing Factorio on a large 32" 4K monitor and have noticed the following problem: When working on the zoomed-in map view, I now more frequently "forget" or get confused that I am in map view, because the subtle grid overlay texture at the edge of the screen, that is supposed to remind me that I am in map view (formerly the film grain effect) is so far out of my field of view, that it becomes hard for the eye to still register it. It's width should increase proportionally to the resolution in order to preserve it's intended purpose. This might become more important in the future, for the role of remote building in Space Age and when by trend more and more players transition to larger monitors.

Thanks!

Kind regards,
Nick 8-)
