When proceeding in a Southerly direction with screen centering on the text box often obscures the view ahead. It seems the stimulus to center the the screen is the edge of the window but this doesn't work when going south. I'm constantly moving the screen manually so I don't blunder into monsters unbeknownst.
The old version (running on an older computer) recenters with every step. It also doesn't have the text box issue. A2 Crystal Souls, latest version does not have this problem so it is obviously solvable in a similar game engine.
