Action button titles too small

This doesn't seem to have been asked before but if it has please point me in the right direction.

 

I am building a cart where each character has a number of actions based on their location which are disabled and enabled when need be.

 

My problem is that is there is more than one action then when I play it on WhereYouGo then buttons are made too small to get any meaningful title in the button.

 

In the emulator the buttons are stacked and so you get more room.

 

Anyone have any thoughts on how to get round this?

 

Thanks

You could make a messagebox or, if you want more buttons, an input. In the text of the messagebox or input you write a longer description of the actions and what the player has to do and choose. On the buttons a short hint, perhaps as shortcut "fwd instead of forward".

Text in an input : "You enter the castle, on the right site you see a torch, in front of you a trapdoor, on the left side a locker. What are you doing now ?" The inputs : Take torch - Open trapdoor - Open locker

I have many actions in my games and the length of text on buttons is always short enough, but nevertheless understandable.
