[Known] Game continues to start up in maximum video resolution in site of last setting

OS X QA build, 656 and 657

As in previous builds, the game ignores the previous video resolution settings (even though they are saved in config file) and starts up in the highest resolution of the current system video mode - 4096 in case of iMac Retina display default resolution. Lets you struggle with abysmal frame rate trying to reset before it POTPIEs, at every start up.

Our dev was not able to repro on his Mac. We are not able to repro on our QA mac machine, either. Since this is still happening, we need more info:

Full screen? Windowed? Which Retina monitor do you have? What resolution do you set it at and what does it revert to?
To solve this, I think we're gonna have to get down to the nitty gritty details.

@Lexie I'm full screen on a Retina monitor, late-2015 iMac. There is a secondary monitor that is not used by SotA. I am currently set at 'default' on the OS X Displays config, which is 4096x resolution, but the same thing was also happening when I had it turned down to largest text size. I am setting resolution to 2048x resolution after I start up SotA. I previously, on request from one of the devs, determined that the game is in fact saving that info in its config, but is obviously ignoring/overriding it on the next startup. (And I'm not the only one, from the cited thread, so you might want to PM those who commented over there to see what they are experiencing - at least one was on Windows IIRC.)

 

@Lexie Here is the Graphics/Display pane from the System Info utility on my machine. I'm running on the second (primary) display only. The old analog one just runs Discord and the forum when I'm on SotA. Perhaps having it on the same chipset is confusing Unity???

@Widsith [MGT] I've added these details to the bug report.
