Game screen black but game is still running

The game is still running but the main screen is black.  All menus show up when clicked on but the main screen is missing.  Closing the program does not resolve the problem

Steps to Reproduce
I had discovered the steam geyser and then the program was interrupted by a WPS update and then the screen went black. This interruption had happened before and the game did not react like this before I discovered the steam geyser.



User Feedback


Sometimes, if a windows interruption occurs when I am scrolling, the scroll command gets stuck.  If you press H, it will bring you directly to the printing pod, and if your scroll command is stuck you will see the screen pan away from your base.  Pressing WASD (which ever direction the game camera wants to scroll) should toggle the command and work normally afterwards.

I'm not sure if this is the problem you have, but the black screen you are seeing could possibly be the game's fog of war.
