Issues unresolved
Black screen on multi-monitor setups
- There seems to be an issue with multi-monitor setups where game fails to initialize video output. Disable all but one screen as a temporary fix.

Issues fixed
Unable to bind some keys
- Game does not allow players to bind special keys (num keys, page up, down etc.) to commands.
