Font Styles

What are they for?

You can use font styles to give your font a custom outline or drop shadow (with an Underlay) and change the default color (with FaceColor).

How do I use them?

To use font styles, you will need your own font file. The font file that changes the default font for every text element in the game is named "font".

You also need a JSON file for your font. To change a style, add it to the styles variable in the JSON file. If the style changes a color, use the color variable. If the style changes a number, use the value variable. The styles variable is a list of all the styles for your font.

Here are the styles currently available:

Name	Description	Type
UnderlayColor	Renders the text twice, underneath the first render. This determines the color of the second render.	Color
UnderlayDilate	Determines how bloated or shrunken the underlay is.	Number
UnderlaySoftness	Determines how blurred the underlay is.	Number
UnderlayOffsetX	Determines how much the underlay is shifted on the horizontal axis.	Number
UnderlayOffsetY	Determines how much the underlay is shifted on the vertical axis.	Number
FaceColor	Determines the color of the text.	Color

Example

Here's an example that gives the font a red color and a custom drop shadow.

The result:

The font.json file:

{
    "styles": [
        {
            "name": "UnderlayDilate",
            "value": 1.3
        },
        {
            "name": "UnderlayColor",
            "color": "#000000"
        },
        {
            "name": "UnderlaySoftness",
            "value": 1
        },
        {
            "name": "UnderlayOffsetX",
            "value": 1
        },
        {
            "name": "UnderlayOffsetY",
            "value": -1
        },
        {
            "name": "FaceColor",
            "color": "#FF0000"
        }
    ]
}

You don't have to set every style, only the ones you need.
