I'm trying to get the exact dimensions I need to make an image to fit the screen on the game perfectly. (Or at least good enough)
Say, for instance, I wanted to draw up a diagram of the crime scene in MS paint or other, how big would I make the dimensions of the drawing? Thanks guys.

Re: Dimensions of the game screen?
is it not possible to implement a system to scale backgrounds down to fit the screen?
manually sizing it isn't really a problem but some might find it a bit tedious

Re: Dimensions of the game screen?
My biggest concern with that is what to do if you're using a place as an examine location. You can examine images larger than 256x192, and it isn't clear to me how we'd handle resizing in such a case. We could add an additional argument for examine locations (and anywhere else where this is a problem) to specify the scaling factor, but that makes this user-friendliness change much less user-friendly.
