Problematic auto-outlining

[InCreator]

Font auto-outline feature seems to work badly.

I imported a TTF font (Verdana) for 640x480 res at size of 9 and it become weird and crappy. Auto-outline erased some lines (pixelwide) from several letters, and missed outline from several places. When I tried my game in 320x200, font outline was fine!

I tried same thing with different fonts & sizes and most of them experienced problems. Then again, some didn't.
And some fonts looked alot better in 640x480.
Font sizes more than 10 were almost always buggy.

What's wrong?

I belive this has already been spotted... or?

So we have to create different font types for each selectable resolution??? Not really great.

Maybe you need to select "don't scale up fonts"?

But then the font is too small in another resolution. :-(

Yes, this is a known issue in beta 2 and will be fixed for the next one.

Yeah, I was the first one who spotted it... I think

Hm. Hope CJ notices the difference too and keeps that in mind when fixing the problem.
