[Forge 1.20.1] Ideas for improvements to the trivia system

I personally love the system, but found a couple annoyances when making my own trivia entries for custom data models:

  • Text doesn't scroll, so anything past 4 lines gets cut off.
  • The mod doesn't auto-scale lines of text to the Deep Learner's GUI, instead requiring you to add a bunch of new line commands. It's almost a non-issue, but it's a bit annoying to constantly check the spacing and make sure text fits properly.
  • Due to this, text can clip into the statistics on the right, and it's a bit annoying.
  • It'd be nice if we could add some flavour text into Simulation Chambers. I think Deep Mob Learning had that, and I always though it was kinda funny.

36dc40a introduced a new rendering system which supports automatic line wrapping. There's still nothing to do text scrolling, so long trivia lines will bleed into the data elements at the bottom of the screen. Honestly, I think that's fine - the trivia is meant to be short.

For the final suggestion, I'm not sure where you would place flavor text into the simulation chamber. It already uses all the text lines during execution. If you have suggestions to follow up on that idea, feel free to open a new issue.
