Capitalism 2 and Capitalism Lab Forum

Current CapLab supports these resolutions:

Full screen mode:
o 1024 x 768
o 1366 x 768
o 1600 x 900
o 1280 x 1024
o 1920 x 1080

Windowed mode:
o 1024 x 768
o 1200 x 900
o 1280 x 960

As very high resolution notebooks and monitors are becoming more and more common,
these resolutions may become a bit awkward on certain settings.

For example, I have a 25" 2560x1440 monitor running on a Windows 10 machine,
when playing full screen with the 1920x1080 setting, the desktop resolution would be implicitly set down to 1920x1080.

This would resize all opened windows permanently (i.e. does not resize back to before launching the game),
which I find very annoying since I don't use the computer for playing Capitalism only.

Apart from this reason, I also prefer playing in windowed mode as the monitor is actually pretty close to me,
and that playing a data intensive game like Capitalism in full screen is "a bit too large".

As for notebooks like the Surface Pro 4, they come with a 2736x1824 resolution screen fitted into a 12.3" monitor.
If played in windowed mode with the highest resolution, 1280x960, it would occupy less than half the screen (less than 6" diagonal, very tiny).

Therefore I believe that it would be nice if the Windowed mode would support more resolutions,
for example up to 1920x1080 and/or 1920x1200.

p.s. I am aware that at higher resolutions, fonts and images would become tiny without scaling,
but that's better than messing up all windows on the desktop.

I would also like a higher resolution setting. The screen resolution has increased significantly in the last couple of years.

I have a 40" 3840x2160 screen, which means that a windowed Capitalism Lab occupies a barely discernible square somewhere in the northeast part of my monitor. Luckily I found this freeware program window resizer which scales up the window to a decent size.
