Title: Settings window sometimes doesn't appear?

I'm not sure what provoked this, but I hit "settings" and it looked like my game locked up. The settings window does not appear and the interface is unresponsive. After restarting MULE by quitting it forcibly with the task manager, I launch MULE again but the same thing happens.

On a hunch I hit "settings" and then Alt+F4 and this fixes the problem; then relaunching the Settings window results in ordinary behavior.

I am guessing there may be a problem where the settings window appears in an unusual space, because of my dual monitors. Maybe I launched the game in one monitor before; this time my window was on the right monitor, and I saw the strange behavior.

The application lets your operating system decide where to put the settings dialog window when it appears. We could force it to be inside the game window but I don't think this is a big issue. It's noted for future versions.
