Game starts on the wrong Monitor

I have two monitors on my desktop. When i start the game in full-screen, it will always start on the second, smaller monitor. I have to toggle on the window mode and manually drag in on the primary monitor.

I am on Fedora 41 on Gnome 47. 0 A.D. 0.27.0. It's the same on the rpm package and flatpak. On Gnome, i can drag the window to my primary screen, even in full-screen, via the application overview. However, the actual content of the window remains the same and around it, the rest of the screen is black. In addition the mouse pointer is off, so i dont click, where the pointer is, rather a bit under it.

Is this a known issue and how is it fixed? It's no big deal, just a bit annoying. I'll play on windowed mode and trap the mouse in the game.

IIRC it starts on the default creen so maybe you could swap the default and this one. Looking at your screenshot it seems you also have display scaling which might cause issues.

You might try to launch the game with SDL_VIDEODRIVER=wayland if fedora uses that.
