Terrarian
As someone who plays on a macbook air I have found some issues in the game that I think should be adressed a in a theoretical 1.4.2 bug fix update. This is mainly 2 features. 1 A change to the resolution and zoom feature and 2, a performance mode.
Firstly the change to resolution. Currently if playing on a standard 1080p screen you can change the resolution however you want up to 1080 x 1920 screen. Unfortunatley if you're not on a screen with a pixel ratio of 16:9 the resolution don't work properly. My laptop has a resolution of 2560 x 1600 (16:10) so the only resolution that works for me is 1440 x 900. if I change my resolution it means my laptop cursor moves at a different speed to my terraria cursor and I cant touch the bottom right of my screen. even If I sacrifice touching the bottom right of my screen for the extra zoom I cant change it back because when I turn my resolution down to 800 x 600 (to go back up to 1440 x 900) my cursor gets stuck in a weird postion and I physically cant move my cursor far enough right to hit t he resolution button again. This leads to a whole lot of hassel to get my. resolution back to normal but to get the point, I think there should be more resolution presets with the option of picking your desired ratio.
My second problem is me having a complete inability to use certain weapons without going into single digit fps. these weapons include the rainbow rod and lunar flare. They create a lot of particles making these weapons unusable for my or anyone else in the world. I also cant have full armour sets that give a shadow/pulsing affect without my game lagging a lot. things like rain and the unicorn sprint mount at full speed all make my fps drop to a point of to an extent unplayability. Performance mode could disable/reduce certain particles affects and idle animations (Eg: skeltron primes eyes moving around ect.) as well as adding a performance lighting style.
Tell me what you think of the ideas
