Is it possible to change in-game screen resolution?

Pretty much what the title says.Some time ago I upgraded my monitor so I am kinda having some performance issues right now, since my PC is still crap.I haven't noticed any option to change screen resolution in the lobby, so I assume it's tied to current desktop resolution.Any ideas?

UPDATE:It seems that changing the desktop resolution is the only way to change in-game resolution.It's kinda annoying having to change it every time, but atleast it works.

This took some messing around with an unwilling Chobby, but it's possible. I guess we could use a better interface for it though. Here's how it can be done:

1. Exit Chobby (The game lobby)

2. Open the Chobby settings file, by default you'll find it in
%userprofile%\Documents\My Games\Spring\LuaMenu\Config\IGL_data.lua

3. Look for the game settings key, it'll look like
game_settings = {
...
},

4. Insert the reduced resolution you want the game to run in:
game_settings = {
    XResolution = 1920,
    YResolution = 1080,
...
},

(Replace 1920 by the width, 1080 by the height)

5. Start Chobby again, enter the game settings. Change display mode to fullscreen.


6. Hopefully everything works, in my case it first crashed my OS but worked after a restart.

Spring should support it. I could add a way to set fullscreen resolution in the settings, it would be easy to do similarly to the manual borderless setting.

Can you fix this too for two screens?

Already fixed and in the current release. Use the Manual Borderless setting.
