Summary0003380: drastic resolution change in .15 and .16
DescriptionThe number of visible tiles has about doubled, and what once was rectangular, is now now square.

This makes it very hard to read text, and rather difficult to locate individual things in the fortress. I've tried zooming in with the mouse wheel, but the squareness remains, and only makes things kinda blurry.
Steps To ReproduceOpen dwarf fortress. Press F11 to fullscreen. It's big.
Additional InformationMy init options are the same as they were in .14 and previous. I'm using the SDL version.
TagsNo tags attached.

I believe the square display is intended. The non-square display before was a bug, see:

To change it to non-square again, you just need to use a different tileset.

Ok, but why is my view so much bigger? Is that part of the same bug?

This is really old and probably not a bug. The view size can be modified in init.txt.
