Startup, Display Settings Memory, and Graphics Compatibility

Thank you for the continued bug reports and startup feedback. This minor update focuses on improving desktop launch reliability, making startup progress clearer, and remembering your display setup between sessions.

Added

  • Added a startup screen during desktop launch with load progress and recovery options if the game takes longer than expected to open.
  • Added display settings memory for the desktop build. The game now remembers your window size, window position, selected monitor in windowed mode, and the monitor you last used for fullscreen.

Improved

  • Improved hybrid-GPU startup behavior on laptops and multi-GPU systems.
  • Added clearer automatic fallback behavior when the game detects a graphics mismatch.
  • Added startup recovery actions, including copying diagnostics, opening the log folder, and relaunching in compatibility mode.

Fixed

  • Fixed fullscreen and windowed preferences not always applying correctly after restarting the desktop build.
  • Fixed blank or hung startup screens on some Windows setups.

Happy growing!
