But i can't recommend to change the function by your mod. This function is critical for the whole tooltip stuff and will be changed in the future from FAF Developer side.
If you decide to hook the file and change the function, have in mind to check this after each FAF update.

In case you want this to be implemented into the FAF maingame, you can start an issue on github:
https://github.com/FAForever/fa/issues

Name it something like "Tooltip enhancement for big numbers"

Do you mean something like this:
ShieldNo1.png
ShieldNo2.png

Well you have to change the function "Show()" inside "unitviewDetail.lua"
Search for this code:

Code:: local showShield = false if bp.Defense.Shield and bp.Defense.Shield.ShieldMaxHealth then showShield = true View.ShieldStat.Value:SetText(bp.Defense.Shield.ShieldMaxHealth) end

then add this line to set the fontsize to 10:

Code:: View.ShieldStat.Value:SetFont(UIUtil.bodyFont, 10)

should look like this now:

Code:: local showShield = false if bp.Defense.Shield and bp.Defense.Shield.ShieldMaxHealth then showShield = true View.ShieldStat.Value:SetFont(UIUtil.bodyFont, 10) View.ShieldStat.Value:SetText(bp.Defense.Shield.ShieldMaxHealth) end

This is the only way to make the text smaller.
