Im playing on my Android tablet. This is my first roguelike but I gotta say that I need this game like I need water. I have added a screenshot to this post showing an issue I have. My game info takes up half of the screen and doesnt leave much for the view area. Is there anyway to fix this? Ive been searching for days…

I don’t play on android and don’t know what your device’s display resolution is,  
but having said that, this might help.

settings -\> options -\> graphics

- terminal width
- terminal height

tweak these to match your display resolution.

also settings -\> options -\> interface -\> sidebar style  
this may help by picking the “narrow” style if it isn’t default.

z and Z for zoom are handy too, though sidebar is probably what your looking for.
