I would like to see this game with borderless window mode in addition to the normal fullscreen or windowed.
Borderless window mode is one that appears to be fullscreen, but acts like a window mode in respect to the ability to move the mouse in and out of the area of the window. This is very useful to people who use multiple monitors, and would like the appearance of fullscreen on one monitor, but be able to move the mouse cursor to other screens to do things like use a web browser, for example.
As far as I know this would involve changing how the window is initialized, and permitting the mouse to move out of the area of the game as normal for a windowed application.

Ya, would be nice I stopped using fullscreen mode so I could switch easier between WZ and IRC.

Re: Borderless window mode
Welcome to the WZ2100 forum obsidiac.. I was just wondering as to which OS you are running?

Re: Borderless window mode
This is how the Qt port of the game works. Unfortunately, in that same port, the option to change fullscreen resolution is gone. (Well, that is, unless you change your desktop resolution.) That is as far as I know the last remaining issue for the Qt port.

Re: Borderless window mode
At this point, the only thing I can really recommend is just normal windowed mode. The borders aren't big enough for it to matter that much.
