Just a little thing. Support longer names.
« on: January 14, 2010, 06:22 »

The one thing that truly annoys me about this game is that very few of my normal character names (such as my username on this forum) fit. Is it possible to make the name field longer?

It could be possible to make the length of your name longer, but it wouldn't all display, if it's too long. There's only so much space at the bottom of the screen. The full name could be displayed in the mortem...but then we would have the problem of the High Scores list.

Also, AFAIR, there is a really easy way to override the name length limit- set you imagined name as a default name in the .ini file. This will, however, cause issues with displaying the name properly.
