Weird Viewport Behavior When Changing Resolution

alack-sunrider

Hey there! I'm a canvas item noob, and I can't for the life of me figure out what's going on. I need to be able to change the game resolution, but keep the game centered on the screen. My node setup is the following:

Just to easily see what's happening, I set the ViewportContainer scale to 0.5. Whenever I change the resolution, the viewport seems to move (even though I set the ViewportContainer anchors to Center). Here's the game at the default resolution:

And here's the game at 2x the default resolution (without any camera movement):

This is how the stretch mode is set up in the project settings:

How do I keep the viewport centered? :( Thank you so much to anyone who answers this! <3

Welcome to the forums @"Alack Sunrider"!

Maybe try using a TextureRect and see if that fixes it? I think it may be the margin container is resizing strangely and that could be causing the issue with the character not being centered.

Though I’m not sure how it would change the position of the camera though. If you print the camera’s position before and after, is it the same?

Try replicating the setup found in the 3D Viewport Scaling demo.
