      When I run the game on external monitors it uses an odd resolution which impacts the performance. Full screening also isn't working.

      I've tested the game on my laptop screen which is 4K and 2 Acer external displays. One being 2K and the other being Full HD. I've attached screenshots of the game running the odd resolutions on the 2K and Full HD displays. It runs on the 4K screen with no issues.

      On the 2K display it'll show a resolution of 5120x2724 and the FHD screen it's 4800x2544.

      When I try to fullscreen the game on the external displays, the game will appear minimised and won't display. I'm able to bring it back by pressing F11. It'll Full screen fine on the 4K laptop screen. 

      I have tested both integrated and dedicated graphics cards, both give the same result.
