New UI - Scaling and Scrolling problems (PS4 / Console general)

[Yoshi88]

Hi there devs,

first of all: I love the new expansion and updates and especially the lok of the new UI. Having said that, there are a few points regarding UI i hope you can fix in a Hotfix or at least the next update:


Foreword: On PS4 and on my 55" TV the UI is only really usable (readable) when putting the scaling factor at max or one/ two steps before max. Everthing else is basically ignorable. These are my settings while experiencing the problems (although i already tried tinkering with the UI scaling here and didn't have a noticeable improvement):

1. Scaling: I get, that you tried to fix info windows that have been a bit too big before in the old UI when displaying lots of variable infos, like with dome info windows regarding comfort etc. So it seems you have scaled them down considerably but also uncoupled them from the UI-scaling option. Example dome info window: now you can see everything they display at once, but they are also extreeemely tiny! Like Min-UI-Scaling bar tiny and barely (!) readable on TV. There is still almost half a screen space underneath them, so i'd ask you to scale them up a little again or couple them with the scaling option. Same thing with the colonist info window, which is also veery tiny while still having space left underneath. I think you might've gone overboard a bit here
2. Scrolling: There are two points in the redesigned command center where scrolling seems to be not activated/ doable on consoles
   1. In the overview with the six big squares on the right, i'm unable to see the lower two ones. Keep in mind, i have the UI scaled very high (see above, it's necessary). There seems to be a vertical scrolling bar, but nothing works to scroll down on the right to see the info (sticks, shoulder buttons etc.). This is rectified when scaling the UI considerably down in the options, but as i mentioned this makes the rest of the game barely readable.
   2. While in any of the submenues i can't scroll the left column with the single indicators/ filters down, although -again- there is a vertical scrolling bar visible, but nothing works to scroll (sticks, buttons etc.). I can move the cursor selection down and it activates/ selects the filters/indicators further down, but the column doesn't scroll along, so it's bascially going blind here. I can scroll the right column where all the buildings and colonists etc. are listed without problems, just going further down and it scrolls along automatically.

I hope you can keep those things in mind for your avid console fans. Keep up the great work devs!!!
