Game behaviour

Bug description

When i open the game it starts on my secondary display. In the settings changing the display to my primary one doesn't work but to my display tablet it works, to switch to my primary display i need to make it Windowed -> move it -> Fullscreen. When i close the game and open it back up it always starts on the secondary display regardless of the settings that were changed before quitting.

The issue started recently i think about the time that separate tablet sensitivity was introduced the game.

I want to help triage the issue, is there a way to safely change game version to find out what update made it happen and to see what was the behaviour before and after? I'm using the official AppImage.

Possibly related to Game starts on wrong monitor but that is a 5 year old issue from a different platform. Also one more thing is that the order of my displays is different from my system configuration. You can see in the video that my secondary display is first with the 0 index. I don't remember if that was the case even on older versions. Just something i noticed.
