Starting a tutorial changes the resolution back to defaults

Post by Archange1 »

Just wondering if, for anyone else, when you start a tutorial, the game changes whatever resolution youve got back to the default (my case, 800x600)?
not that its a huge bug/issue, just should it be doing this/is there a reason for this?

Looking at the filenames for the tutorials, I guess that they have only been made for 800x600 and 1024x768 and if you use any other resolution Lomo will switch so it can show them.

maybe because the tutorials work like in ttd, where it seemed to be only commands and precise mouse movements that were 'recorded'. in order for that to work, youd need a set screen res.

you can change the tutorial maps, and the tutorial will try to build in the wrong spot, because on the original map it was the right spot.
