Launch the game, press [window key + shift + arrow] to move it to the screen you want, windows remembers this and should always open it on the monitor you moved it to. This has always worked for me for every game, I don't have any ideas if it's not working for you.

Edit: I just realized you said 1.7, I haven't tried 1.7 yet. Does the game now have a game setting for which screen to run on in the options?

I don't know why this happens (for me this sometimes happens with other games too), but if you're on windows (this may work on other operating systems, but Idk as I'm on windows) you can hold LeftShift+Windows key and use the arrow keys to move it to another screen (this works for all applications btw)

Sorry forgot to add that I am on Linux, thanks for the advice though it might help someone else

I think Linux has much the same functionality. I guess it might depend on the DE you are using, but win+shift+arrow SHOULD do the same thing. I know it works the same for window snapping/docking in some distros. What distro? Also, what compositor? X11 or Wayland?

Edit: Also, make sure the monitor you are wanting it to launch on is set as your primary display.

Thanks that worked!
