Resolution reset on game start
Hey there,
my monitors native resolution is 5120x1440.
After the games loading screen and the main menu appears the resolution falls back to 3840x1080.
Then I have to manually set the resolution back to 5120x1440. This needs to be done every time I start the game.
Is there a fix for this?
If you need more details like hardware components please let me know.

I'm curious how your GameUserSettings.ini file looks like after changing the resolution. It is located at C:\Users\{YOUR_USERNAME}\AppData\Local\RSG\Saved\Config\WindowsNoEditor
If you don't mind losing some settings like keybindings, etc. maybe you could try to delete the file and the game will create a default file the next time the game starts. The default should be windowed mode with 1920x1080 resolution. Now, if you go to the options and change the mode to fullscreen and the resolution to
2540x1440, the following lines should be added to the ini file (most likely at the top, but it could be anywhere)
ResolutionSizeX=2560
ResolutionSizeY=1440
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeX=2560
LastUserConfirmedResolutionSizeY=1440
FullscreenMode=0
LastConfirmedFullscreenMode=0
If I then close the game and start the next time, the game opens in full screen mode and applies the 2560x1440 resolution.
So I'm wondering what happens in your ini file?
my current GameUserSettings.ini looks like this:

I deleted this file and let the game recreate it. This is how it looks after starting the game, setting the proper resolution and fullscreen mode and closing the game: https://hastebin.com/uyaticogoy.py
Then I restarted the game and the resolution felt back to 3840x1080 again. Without touching the configuration ingame and closing once again this is how the file looks like: https://hastebin.com/obapebiveb.py
I hope this was useful for investigation.
Edit: This is actually working though. I used the information I found here: https://steamcommunity.com/app/396750/discussions/0/152391995409984268/
I added -FULLSCREEN ResX=5120 ResY=1440 as start options and it seems to work for now. Though I did not actually play, just started the game since I ran out of spare time.
Anyway, just for the case you'd need other overrides like VSync and whatever:
