Multi-monitor

When playing on a system with multiple monitors, the game will default to fullscreen on the primary monitor. When the game is alt-tabbed out of and reopened, the screen will go black. Once there simply wiggle the mouse . Sometimes the game will go back to normal, and sometimes the game will crash instead.
