Our GUIs have different size compared to all vanilla GUIs, its possible that GUIs you have tried are in one dimension bigger than "allowed" vanilla maximum, which results in higher gui_scale not applying as expected (the GUI would simple overflow out of your monitor), if you have latest blockui (1.0.149-BETA) you may press left ctrl+shift+alt to see debug info for our GUIs which also shows Scaling: [scaling mode] (vanilla: [gui_scale in your settings] our: [gui_scale of rendered GUI])

Please elaborate on what you mean here? There is no “allowed” vanilla maximum… max gui_scale setting is calculated based on display resolution.

The vanilla max gui_scale is calculated based on the formula max(1, min(floor(width / 320), floor(height / 240)))

I meant maximum GUI size which you can see in the formula: 320 x 240 px, some of our GUIs are large in one or both dimensions therefore will result in smaller gui_scale than in your settings

My screen is 2880 x 1800. The area that MineColonies takes up is minuscule — I have to strain my eyes to even try and read the text. Why should the MineColonies UI stop scaling at 4 when the vanilla UI does not? This is unrelated to your UI being large in any one dimension. It should continue scaling up as is intended vanilla behavior (to make it usable on large screens).

Name the gui(s) you have problem with - it's quite common someone forgot to give it proper size, otherwise in our code there is no such limitation you're talking about - we take gui_scale from vanilla settings, and do min of "max possible scale of current gui" and "vanilla settings"

Resource scroll, town hall, builders hut, interactions with colonists, residences, etc. — I haven’t come across a MineColonies GUI not affected by this issue.

I can get screenshots later.

I have a strong feeling that another mod is messing with this. I got high res screens and it scales perfectly fine for me.

Hey, I know that this is a few months old but is there a solution? For me, it is vanilla: 5 our: 2, but how do I change that?
