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)

HMM! Well I think I've made it better? Framerate seems more stable on this poor laptop?

Not bad for built in graphics.

That's not what I wanted to happen

Thank you all so much for your support, it truly means the world to me and helps out so very much.

Thank you.

That sucks. I spent ages reworking the draw world code to make it better and it made everything slower

Guess drawing and storing the whole land, then only drawing part of it to the screen, is better than generating only part and drawing it constantly.

Mae Borowski is the main character of Night in the Woods! It's an adventure game that tells the story of her return to her hometown of Possum Springs. She was confirmed as canonically pan in a social media post by the game's creator Scott Benson.

Had some spare time yesterday while granny had a friend over, so I spent it catching up on a bunch of Warframe content I never got around to doing.

I've had the Prime version of these frames for years, so this is long overdue.
