Handler notes

Video showcase/tutorial: https://youtu.be/obz5UHzYpNM

Tested with the Steam and CD versions of the game.

IMPORTANT: Start the main game once before and change some settings. Also have a valid CD-KEY already (if you are using the CD version).

When the instances are starting/resizing do not interact with them, the mouse will bug out if you do.

This game has minimal controller support (it isn't even known to have controller support), use your mouse to navigate the menus, also the right stick has a high sensitivity, there is no known fixes for it yet.

Recommended that you add custom resolutions to all your monitors from your AMD/Nvidia/Intel panel (for example if you are using a monitor resolution of 1920x1080 add custom resolutions like 1920x540, 960x1080, 960x540, etc.).

The handler uses names.exe, F2 Host.exe, F3 Restart.exe, F4 Next.exe and safeMode.exe they are made for a better experience in split-screen, if they get deleted by your AV, just disable your AV when you are downloading the handler, they are needed else you will be getting a crash at the start.
