-Edit- I've expanded in the post below this one

Hey there.
When trying to play co-op across 2 monitors the force split-screen works wonderfully until you enter combat, when in combat it wants to center the screen.

I am able to force it back to splitscreen by opening the inventory or going into cursor mode (left stick pressed down) with the player whos turn isnt active.

this works but it is SUUUUPER annoying and makes playing more than an hour or so at a time unbearable.

Please Please Please
Add an option to ALWAYS force splitscreen even when in combat

Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

some more description of my exact situation

using nvidia surround to make a desktop that is 3840 x 1080.

the game launches filling both screens with the UI centered and split in the middle.

when you add a second player and go to start a new story it switches to the split screen and works wonderfully.

after you get into the game, pressing left d-pad to force splitscreen gives each player a whole monitor.

once you get into the first combat force splitscreen disables itself and the screen is again split across both monitors.
It is impossible to play like this as its very disorienting to aim abilities and read text

a player can enter cursor mode, open an inventory screen, or move far enough away that the splitscreen re-enables itself and again the setup works fine

every time it swaps between players you can have the other player open the menu and this... works but its tedious and awful xD

what i'm hoping for is an option in the ini or commandline or in game options. to always force splitscreen, even when in combat or any other scenario that might normally disable it (could it work in cutscenes, minor)

extra fluff would be a UI offset

Ty i would like anyone else to share their stories of little annoying things in co-op

I don't think Larian is going to see that, sadly.. =/
Maybe you can request a mod and wait if a sweet soul help you out?
