From Dean Hall on Discord:

You can see the SDF font gauge is working great and there is almost no aliasing whether the gauge is large or small. Might be hard to wrap your head around, but in drawing these gauges no mesh or texture* is involved at all. (technically, a texture is used for the SDF font but not in a traditional texture sense). This has a lot of benefits I covered earlier. You can see animated mechanical rollers for representing numbers in this demonstration as well. These gauges are generated entirely from runtime “mod data” meaning the way we make them is the same way modders do. The shader itself is able to access a global shader binding that is very efficient when it comes to transfering data. Individual shaders/gauges don’t need special bindings for data, they have access to all the data. Allowing gauges of incredible complexity, for only the per-pixel cost of the shader itself.
