Quick question, what font does Starcraft use in game?
Starcraft uses the font Tahoma, may I ask why you want to know this question? You cannot modify it in a UMS map, and this is UMS map making assistance.
Probably to insert ASCII characters from character map (so that they dont appear invisible or garbage)
For easy formatting.
Is that also the font for the mission objectives in game?
It actually uses it's own font... I think it would take longer to convert the files to a usable form than to just use trial and error..
