so, I have a menu in game that has many pages and just one of the pages is loaded when the player is at sea.
Each page is a separate object that is created or destroyed as the player moves between pages.
when they are not at sea they can scroll through the menu and see the equipment, then weapons then items, etc and the one for at sea is your boat cargo, but when at sea its the only menu available.
I have code that just loads that page when I'm in the room for the sea and press the menu key(space), however the room for sea, is way bigger than the rest of the rooms on land, and so is the view, so the menu is really small!
Im trying to work out how I can have the menu be much bigger to fit the view at sea. I have a load of stuff in the draw event of the boat inventory to tell it where to display the stuff based on x,y coordinates, so if I change the sprite scale of the menu all the menu items will be all squashed up in a tiny box on the top left of the screen still.
is there a way to upscale every thing together?
or
would it be easier to just have a specific, larger and re jigged x,y coordinates, version of the boat inventory, that loads at sea instead. I have a feeling it will look different if I do this however as the pixel density will show and a lot of the text will be smoother?
