I have a 2560x1440 monitor and have my game resolution set the same, yet there is a gap at the bottom of my monitor. I have windows scaling set to default. Ideas why this isn't working correctly? Essentially, it looks like the game is up too high on the top as I can't even see the window on top.

Ok, I found a work around online by hitting the Windows key + up arrow. Still not sure why the game doesn't load it properly though.

I can reproduce the symptom you're showing and have tapped Bill on the shoulder to look at it.

If you click on the H button to the botton left of the Hex Command Display ( The bar in the botton where you have the selected hex info displayed) you can see there are the keys I, J, K and L to move the game screen around. I am playing in 1920, 1080 resolution and I can have either the upper border of the game screen ( the one that says “WiS windowed”) or the botton border of the game screen ( the one reserved for the hidden task bar) but not both of the same time. I need to use keys I and K to move game screen up or down. Someone of the developers told me that maybe id need to set the game window screen size in the setup.ini cause maybe the 1920x1080 doesn’t fit precisely in my monitor, I haven’t tried cause it is not a big issue.
