It does this even after a reboot? Updating mouse/keyboard drivers could be a solution.

even after reboot. also i don't have this issue in any other program so its unlikely a driver issue. i will try anyway.

I think page up/down zooms, you may want to check if they are stuck, but I assume you would notice in other programs. If it is a laptop and you use an external mouse, try to disconnect it and run by touchpad. Or try disable touchpad.

If you got a spare mouse, try it...

Just suggestions that could help find the culprit :)

W00T!!1!

ok so i don't know what was CAUSING this but i know what fixed it.

page up/down does indeed control zooming and by using them it 'unstuck' the auto zoom. i think some error in the game made it think i was holding down zoom out constantly when i wasn't and but using the keys it reset whatever was messing up. oddly this didnt work for mouse wheel or GUI zoom, which makes it more certain that the zoom out key was digitally stuck in distant worlds.

anyway thanks for the help bingeling, my game is working fine now.
