🇳🇱
@FredericGuilbault thanks, whats your monitor resolution (pixels) so i can get an idea of size
@freemo 1920X1080 22.5Inch
@freemo 40 lines, 150 columns, 1366x 768. I use Guake as terminal, if it matters.
@arteteco Great, I think thats a good resolution to target, in the middle... I was hoping to get 162 columns but that sound like it wont happen without a bit more resolution.. Thats unfortunate.
@freemo 160x45 terminal with 2560x1080 resolution on linux, same terminal size with varying resolutions on MacOS.
@freemo About 150 columns.
@freemo The average for a TTY/console environment I think is 25x80 out-of-the-box. However, on Debian-based systems, people can run:
sudo dpkg-reconfigure console-setup
to change their TTY/console settings. But for GUI environments, ask people what their output when running "stty size" in a terminal is.
@TheOuterLinux 80x24 actually, its the minimum, not the "average". Unless your at the lowest possible resolution or not in x-windows at all that is unlikely for most people.
@freemo I was referring to TTY/console and not with actual X running. If you're going to make a ncurses/ascii game of sorts then you can expect people to try to run it in a TTY. When in doubt, ask /r/command-line on Reddit. Those people are zealots if there ever where any on the subject.
@TheOuterLinux The game can run at any resolution. I'm just trying to play it locally at a sane resolution so i can see how it feels
@freemo If you need any ideas or help with your command-line project, take a look at my notes: https://gitlab.com/theouterlinux/command-line
