Have no clue why, but even in the demo project the "font" used isn't the one specified. Does the font used need to be installed on the operating system that the game's run on?

That was indeed a bug. I fixed it and updated the files. Thanks a lot for notifying me!

Love this!

For ease of use, I'd recommend you update your plugin parameter for BackgroundImage to @type file and your UseInMenu and ShowWhenNoName to @type boolean

Thanks for the suggestion! Updated those, though I went for a normal select for the latter since the boolean selectors feel quite buggy.

Interesting, I haven't had a problem with the booleans!

Sometimes they don't seem to register properly for me. But since you can easily simulate them with a normal select it doesn't really matter I guess.

UPDATE: Never-mind. I reported a bug but the plugin download link had a cached copy, so when I re-saved it, it was still the old version. Had to force clear my browser cache and that let me download the updated version.

I changed some settings on my website (which provides the downloads) to hopefully prevent browsers from caching those links in the future.
