I'm having an issue: 

Unhandled exception. System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: The new console window size would force the console buffer size to be too large. (Parameter 'height')

Actual value was 50.

this is what i got before the window closed itself

Hi, assuming you're running on Windows, this problem should be fixable by doing the following:

  1. Open cmd.exe (from Windows Start/Search/Run)
  2. Right click the title bar of the window
  3. Click defaults from the context menu
  4. Under the font tab, change the font size to something lower than it is right now (typically I find font size 16 looks the best)

This is all dependant on your monitor resolution though as Startron works best at resolutions above 1280x1024.


Alternatively, see the support section here for how to set the "squished" property in the startron.cfg file if this is not already happening by default.


Let me know if you get it sorted :)

i have a startron.runtimeconfig file, is it the same thing as starton.cfg? as it keeps mentioning that, but i dont have that file if it isnt the same

It's not the same file

startron.cfg either needs to be added manually, or is modified with the in-game options menu
