Command line parameter using dsda-doom-0.27.5
"./dsda-doom.exe" -iwad "DOOM2.WAD" -file "10X10.wad"

Onto the issue: My automap looks like this, which makes it borderline unusable. No, this is not a screenshot artifact, it looks like this no matter the zoom level.
Enhance:
Even rotating the map (yuck) does this, but it becomes somewhat more usable:
I think making the lines a pixel or two wider would solve this issue on my end, but I can't find the relevant configuration parameters (if such a thing exists). The artifacting / aliasing issue exists no matter the resolution (3000x2000 is my native resolution though). I thought I'd check a tangentially related source port PrBoomPlus to see if the issue exists there also, and it does not. Really no other video-related or other issues present, the application runs absolutely fine otherwise and I am shocked at the performance of my ancient Surface Book. The issue is also not present on my desktop system, so I'm afraid it might be something about my laptop.
I have tried:
- Different video modes
- Different resolutions
- Fullscreen or windowed
- Deleting my dsda-doom.cfg
- Trying out a fresh install
- Playing a different pwad entirely
If this is a case of PEBKAC feel free to close the issue and I apologize for wasting everyone's time, although I hope the person who read this learned a useful acronym at least. If this is a legitimate issue, I would appreciate any advice to remedy the situation. I have already written half a novel where a picture would have probably sufficed, so if any more details are needed I'd be happy to provide them.
Thank you for your time.
