Are we ever to get proper 21:9 support?

    Luckily, unlike many other games on Steam, 21:9 ultrawide is playable on Space Engineers.

    However, many of the UI screens are still only showing a 16:9 area, which leaves strips on the left and right uncovered. Even the graphics settings incorrectly thinks my 3440x1440 resolution is dual monitor 4:3.

    I'd be curious if anyone at KSH uses or tests on a 21:9 ultrawide monitor. I'd love to see a little polish in this area.

    This would be wonderful. I am sold on a 21:9 monitor for a future build (if not this one lol)

    They did say they are actively working on a UI overhaul. Perhaps this'll lead into a proper examination of the games display resolutions as well (one could hope at least ;) )

    I use an LG monitor that's 3440x1440 which is 21:9. In your settings you should see this monitor supported as dual monitor. I've been using it for a while and haven't noticed anything glitchy with this display. Please list the make and model of your 21:9.

    Mine is
    LG 34UM95-C

    I can second what Ronin said...I have a Asus ROG PG348Q playing at 3440 x 1440 and have no issues with the resolution or UI displaying correctly.

    What graphics hardware are you guys running you 21:9 screens on?
    I've got a GTX 1080, and a 24" monitor. I'm not sure if I should just get a second 24" for my workspace, and continue playing on 1 monitor, or change up to a single 34" 3440x1440 monitor.

    im using a EVGA GTX 980 SC for 34" 3440x1440, my world is quite full with stuff and im still having ~50-60fps
    so your 1080 is definitely enough

    I've got 1080 and a 2560X1080 monitor. Solid 70 fps [locked] on planets, aside from classic SE stutters. I think you'd have to touch a few settings to be lower if you want constant 60, but it's absolutely doable.
