Higher screen resolutions?
I was wondering if the game in the future would support higher resolution displays.

I just got a Microsoft Surface Pro 3 which has the native resolution of "2160x1440" and it would be cool to be able to play the game in its full resolution.

Also, some people have higher rez screens, which are becoming more common, with the resolutions like "2560x1600" and "2560x1440".

I know most games only go up to 1920x1080, but if you could go higher, you could list it as nifty features on the store page... :meatboy:

where all the percent of Steam users >5% are in blue. Note that all these resolutions are the common laptop resolutions.

The Surface Pro 3 resolution of 2160x1440 is not even listed, but again it did not come out until June 30th of this year. The previous Surface Pro's, 1 and 2, both had 1920x1080 resolutions.

Microsoft is somewhat blazing the way with this new resolution which has a 3:2 aspect ratio, which is probably the best ratio when you want to freely rotate the display, such as if you are using Word and want to edit a document in portrait mode for instance.

I have been having really weird things happen regarding resolutions when I try to run the game on a second monitor 1920x1080 from my Surface.

  1. When I try to move the game over to the second monitor (when I extending that as secondary monitor under Windows), it thinks the max resolution is 1440x900.

  2. When I try to mirror my display so that both my surface and my second monitor are running at 1920x1080, the game thinks the resolution is even lower (some weird resolution like 1152x864).

  3. Only when I extend my display AND make the second monitor my main monitor can I get the game to run in 1920x1080.

The way in which the game is querying the Windows OS about what is the resolution of the main display seems to be somewhat wonky given these mixed results.
