If encountering blurry fonts, add r.DepthOfFieldQuality=0 in Engine.ini to disable depth of field, or adjust resolution to integer multiples.

๐Ÿ—ƒ๏ธ Information Recording

Important passwords and coordinates should be screenshot-saved, as some information updates or disappears during game progression.
