SO. Couldn't get the shader to work, it kept using the same colour as the font, and wasn't turning any size.
So I edited the font to have an outline. This means I can't scale my font since I have to do each size manually.

Maybe I can scale the UI instead.

Another minor issue is that because the draw colour has to be white (to keep the outline), I need to go through all my draw code and add draw_set_colour(c_white) before any draw text code to fix it being drawn black and defeating the point of the outline.

Also, I really need to set up a way out of the typing menu when not using a joypad X'D
I thought I had it but apparently I've missed a check.

Edit; Oh it was working, f1 was set to exit edit mode, which returns normal control X'D I was trying to leave by JUST pressing f1. (it should be Escape, but that's currently my quick reset button)

Getting this text to scroll and crop should have been super easy but I couldn't get it to work with sin(), so I had to use an extra variable to reverse the movement at the end point. But it DOES work. so *shrug*

Game Dev Progress Post!

This month was more fixes, optimisations and tweaks. Plus more fleshing out of existing things, so not as much to show as I'd have liked.
