Introducing flexible fonts

The next build introduces a new feature called flexible fonts. In Open Surge, all bitmap fonts (fonts in which characters are extracted from an image) had to be monospaced. Now, different characters can have different sizes, giving bitmap fonts a more aesthetically pleasing look & feel.

To support flexible fonts, the font definition scripts have also gained new parameters - all of them are documented in the wiki.

I tested the new fonts using the HUD. Note that the picture below is just an example (I simply used the HUD to test them).
