Resolution/Full Screen settings?
Unless I'm missing them, there don't seem to be any in the demo... the window won't actually fit on my screen and there seems to be nothing to be done about it.

Is this a thing that's going to get addressed in a patch?
Already implemented in the full version?
Is there a toggle or key command I just don't know about?

I can't see the bottom of the screen to a point the game doesn't seem playable (I can't find an "End turn" button, and am just going to assume it's lost down there somewhere). I've a more than passing interest in the game's stated concept, but just trying to gauge if I should be waiting for this to be addressed, or move on

Heya, you should be able to adjust the resolution in the Graphics Options accessible from the Main menu.

In your case you would select "Full Screen" mode then select one of the resolution options.

It should work the same in demo and full game.

Side note: if the resolution options don't seem to work for you, you can try enabling the "widescreen scaling" mode. I recommend only using it if you can get a ratio width/height of at least 1.7 or some of the buttons won't be visible.

Edit: added the side note about widescreen

I am experiencing this issue, but because the game displays at a much higher resolution than my small laptop screen, I can't click the confirmation button in the Graphic options menu to change the display settings. Is there a workaround for this, or a command line parameter to set resolution mode before launching the game?

Ah I understand, you should be able to override the screen resolution info using these command line arguments
https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/PlayerCommandLineArguments.html

try setting the fullscreen command line argument, that should be sufficient, if not also set the screen-width and height.

I will also add another confirm button in the top left corner in case others get stuck as well.

Let me know

Update:

I've changed the default launch parameters for the game on Steam to start in Fullscreen mode (the first time). If you uninstall and re-install the game it should work.

If this still doesn't work for your monitor resolution, you can try the following command line arguments after re-installing the game. On Steam select "Browse Local Files" (right click on game name, in the tiny menu). and launch the game with the following parameters:
```
-screen-fullscreen 1 -screen-width 1920 -screen-height 1080
```

You can set the width/height to something else as long as the ratio is 1.7 and above. For example a width of 1366 and height of 768

You only need to do this once so can access then save those graphic options in the game settings afterwards.

If this still doesn't work, you can tweak the graphics settings outside of the game, make sure to close the game first.

on Windows, edit game settings with regedit, path
```
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Unity\UnityEditor\Fire Biscuit Games\Paladin Oath
```

on Mac, settings should be in this plist file:
```
~/Library/Preferences/com.FireBiscuit.PaladinOath.plist (or similar)
```

on Linux, settings should be in this xml file:
~/.config/unity3d/Fire Biscuit Games/Paladin Oath/prefs

Keys (there might be some extra digits at the end of the key):
game.settings.resolution.fullscreen -> set value 0
game.settings.resolution.width -> set value that you want (ex: 1366 or 1920)
game.settings.resolution.height -> set value that you want (ex: 768 or 1080)

Save after making the changes and restart the game.

Also documented the above in the Paladin's Oath wiki:

Hope this helps!

Thanks for your quick response! I don't know if it's because I was using the demo, but reinstalling did not cause the game to start in fullscreen (I saw the game updated later on that evening, after I fixed the issue, maybe that update was needed?). I changed the settings in the configuration file, but weirdly enough, it did not impact the game when I launched it. I managed to get it working by hooking it up to a monitor to change and save the new graphics settings, but that glitched out my laptop's resolution. The laptop and the game ran fine without the monitor though after I restarted my laptop and the game, and now I can play it.

I run Ubuntu 20.04.4 LTS and my graphics card is an Intel® HD Graphics 4000 (it's a Dell Latitude with a 1366x768 resolution). It's fixed on my end, but I don't know if other people will have issues. But thanks for being so responsive!

@Ragabash, thanks for the follow-up. Re-installing didn't seem to clear the prefs. Changing the settings in the config should have worked though, i'll double check.

I'm glad it's resolved for you now :) I've also documented this in the wiki for others in case they have the same issue.
