    Title: Couldn't switch to requested monitor resolution
    Reproduction Rate: Occurs at random times when initially entering the game or when maximizing/restoring the window.
    Blocker?: yes
    Details: I get messages like: "Couldn't switch to requested monitor resolution. Switching to resolution 2560 x 1017 failed, trying lower one. All resolution switches have failed. Screen could not switch resolution (2560x1017 fs=0 hz=60)". When I hit the OK button on the message SOTA exits to desktop. I tried reducing the viedo resolution ingame 1024x768, but I still had occasions crashes at that resolution which is significantly lower than my monitor resolution. I have short OBS video of this problem occuring at startup and of some flaring during combat in Longfall Woods. I can send it if requested. BTW, I only used OBS to try and capture the problem. OBS was not running for the first half dozen times this problem occured.
    Steps to Reproduce: unknown
    User Specs: Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, i7-5820K. 32GB ram, Nvidia GTX 970 using driver 365.10
