    If you have multiple monitors, is there any way to run Automobilista 2 on a different monitor than the primary screen?

    1 : SHIFT+WINKEY+ARROW keys move windows between monitors.

    2: launch option: -sdl_displayindex <int>. (
    Usually 0 is your primary display)

    3. Windows screen setup, define the screen you would have the game as the primary.

    4; in windowed mode Windows should remind where you closed the game last Time. Try to launch the game, move it to the screen you want and close the Windows There. When you restart it should re open on the screen it Closed last time

    I entered -sdl_displayindex 0 in the Steam launch options, but unfortunately it doesn't seem to work that way.

    Thanks for your help anyway.

    0 is the display considered as you primary display by Windows so I guess if you set 0 it Will remains where it is today.
