When I press Esc then select Controls, the controls are not fully displayed or centred.

See screenshot enclosed.

Version 3, Windows 11 Home, 1920 x 1080

I'm not able to reproduce this one on my end. Was it like that [off-centered] the first time you opened the screen?

Yes, it just appears that way every time.

Just tried on my Windows 10 PC (also 1980 x 1020) and it's working fine as your screenshot.

It's only on my Windows 11 PC that it's not correct.

It may be a specific setting enabled or disabled on your Windows 11 machine then; if any other players on Windows 11 can check for similar behavior that would be great.

Update:

I've just solved this problem:

On Windows: Settings > Display, above Screen Resolution is "Scale". Scale was set to "125% (Recommended)". This thread solved by changing to "100%".

(Everything outside of the game is really small, though, so will have to switch to 100% before playing and 125% after playing.)

Please check if this issue is resolved in build #4. We've added some code that should, in theory, disable high DPI scaling by the operating system interacting with the game.

Thank you for attempting to solve this.

Unfortunately, when scale is 125%, none of the options on the "Save Game / Controls / Settings / Exit" menu are clickable.

May be a Windows 11 specific issue. In the interim you might try setting high hdi scaling override via the compatibility tab on the executable:

/community/index.php?t=getfile&id=117&private=0

(This is from Windows 10; 11 should have something similar if not the same)

That works perfect! Thank you!

I can have my desktop on 125% and the menu and controls display work perfectly!

Thank you!

We've added some more code for the scaling issue in build #5.
