Full screen not working in Chrome

Hi Haxor,

in chrome (Version 92.0.4515.159) when in using the built in full screen, selecting full screen within the game does nothing and in fact stops the fullscreen option working at all, even when reloading the page (i had to restart chrome to fix), i assume an issue with the game using the fullscreen check.

(obvs this is only a verry minor issue with the web build)

It works for me in Edge, Firefox, and IE, I presume a new chromium release broke something. You could try opening the browser's devtools (ctrl+shift+J or F12 I believe), selecting the iframe element the game is within, and typing:

$0.requestFullscreen();

into the developer console.
Or simply try a different browser/desktop version.

However, could you elaborate on the option refusing to work at all? Does the switch not move at all?

EDIT: there's a command for going full screen in the game dev console (that you bring up with F2):

fl

you could try it as well.
