Bigger font size in console - falco - 04-19-2017

The ingame console's font size seems awfully small in comparison to the rest of the UI.
Attached is a screenshot on a resolution of 1366*768 with font sizes set to "large".

You can change the console font size without affecting other text using 'con_textsize <number>' in console. You might need to restart xonotic, otherwise the text might appear blurry.

That worked, thanks.
But I still think the sizes should not be that different.

Can you submit a PR to help address that?

No - a pull request. AKA merge request in Gitlab terms.

Lyberta, right idea, but the execution would affect all games using DarkPlaces as an engine.  As we don't know all their use cases, that's a more difficult MR to get accepted.  To scope it to just Xonotic, use the defaultXonotic.cfg file in Xonotic's data dir: https://gitlab.com/xonotic/xonotic-data.pk3dir/blob/master/defaultXonotic.cfg#L859
