Bug #25470
UI Scaling bugs breaks map view
50%
Description
There are actually two issues here.
1. UI scaling settings don't automatically take effect even when saved. You have to open up the settings, then click "Apply" each time the game launches (saved settings changes not being applied properly when the game launches has been a reoccurring issue on Linux).
2. When the UI scale is adjusted, map icons, and nav point markers end up being drawn way off from where they should be. See attached image. This is extremely consistent, and incredibly annoying on a 4k display with UI scaling set to 200%.

The 150% UI scale default doesn't have this floating UI element effect, but anything above 150% does.

The UI scaling is fixed, however all the graphics settings aren't being loaded when KSP starts up. The only thing that is loading is the screen resolution and full screen options. Detail levels, and UI scaling isn't being applied on startup (going to settings and hitting "Apply" right after startup will apply all saved settings).

While UI scaling no longer borks mapview, said UI scaling is not being applied at startup. As such I consider this very much not fixed.
See #24306, #24810 & #24907.
Game settings have been broken since 1.8.0, and the problem was reported ~9 months ago. Are you actually going to do something about this or what?

Are these graphic settings you are mentioning in Linux? We have other reports of game settings in Linux not being persisted.

This was just happening in Linux. the issue was that game settings were being saved, they just weren't all being applied after they were loaded again. Clicking "apply" fixed it. So far this seems to be fixed in 1.11

This can be closed. This seems to work now.
