City Services · Readability & settings
Bigger text, clearer crew colors
I’ve added a few options to make City Services easier to read: bigger text and menus, a different set of crew colors, and better support for player names.

In development
Make the text a little bigger
There’s now a TEXT AND MENU SIZE option with 100%, 110%, and 120% settings. It applies to both the menus and the HUD.
Making everything bigger also means making sure it still fits. Tall cards adjust to the screen, and the results board refits when the screen size changes. You should be able to turn the size up and still get to everything.
A different set of crew colors
I’ve added a color-blind crew option using the Okabe–Ito palette. It gives you orange, blue, yellow, pink, white, and sky blue in place of the usual colors.
This is a setting for your own screen. You can change how you see the crew without asking everyone else to change theirs. The hard hats update when you switch it, too.
Player names got some attention as well. The game can fall back to fonts on your computer for characters its usual fonts don’t have. That lets names in Cyrillic, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, or Korean show up properly instead of turning into boxes.
These are small changes, but they’re worth doing. There’s enough happening during a shift that you need to be able to read what’s on the screen and tell who’s who.
Thanks for following along.
