exiting full screen fixes it?

#

or does exiting full screen not have an effect

trim hound
#

The issue only occures when i full screen

restive plinth
#

interesting

trim hound
#

windowed works fine

restive plinth
#

Im not sure why it could be, I guess the devs would see this and maybe know what the issue is

trim hound
#

it cant be my resolution so idk what is

restive plinth
#

might be RAM or whatever, mine used to act wild when I tried to take screenshots in full screen mode

#

its a lil different

#

acording to steam the reccomende ram is 2048 mb i got 24GB

restive plinth
#

but how much is assigned to theotown? 🤔

#

perhaps you can assign more RAM and see if that changes anything

#

although i doubt it would since it doesnt sound like a ram issue but you can try

trim hound
#

i have no clue how to do and check that

Ptag memory

If you encounter java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space error, that means that the game ran out of memory (ram) while processing your request or action.

If you're on mobile, there's not much you can do to alleviate this issue, closing other applications in the background might help. For PC, you can simply increase the maximum heap space as a launch argument. For example -Xmx4G will let the game use up to 4 gigabytes of memory. That is, of course if you have enough memory. Generally, it's not a good idea to allocate more than 50% of your entire system memory. If that doesn't work and you're on PC, please check if you have 64 bit Java installed, because if you don't, game can only use 2 gigabytes of memory.

Are you using Windows?

#

You could try to set a fixed resolution in the settings of the game for fullscreen mode

#

I don't think it is RAM related since out of RAM issues usually result in a slowdown and or crash rather than display issues

#

However, it might be a good idea to ensure that your graphics drivers are up to date

Thank you for checking for that. So am I right that you are using Windows?

#

Besides that, it would be good to know which version of Windows it is and whether you are using multiple monitors.

Since we had issues with the fullscreen mode before I now implemented it differently in case "auto" resolution is selected. Please join our Beta program on Steam to check if the issue persists with that.

Awesome, that's great news. I pushed another update to beta that hopefully helps with the alt+tab compatibility.
