[FIXED v1.01] zoom

Post by Bladesss »

Is there an interface or keyboard way to zoom in and out. Trackball's don't come with mouse scroll wheels.

I am still finding the mouse zoom feature very jerky. I think my expectation was it to be smooth, but I am realizing all the zoom is doing is going in stages with big jumps in zoom.

My trackball has a mouse wheel on it thanks to Logitech.

I never thought that doing an AAR would be so time consuming and difficult.

If you go to your mouse options you can change the value of how many steps an actual mousewheel turn covers. I can't guarantee this will make things smoother for you but maybe it will help.

It won't. No other game has this issue and many others have pointed it out.

I think the issue might be that people are expecting a more 'google earth/maps' kind of zoom & scroll action.

Are there settings in CMANO that would allow us to replicate this setup? I find it to be quite unnatural to centre on right mouse click instead of being able to drag the map around.

Apologies if I've missed something - haven't had a chance to go through the manual yet...

Many thanks,

Andrew

Instead of using the map, I use the cursor keys.

This make life a little easier than the re- centre on right click - which feels clunky for sure.

The zoom "steps" are deliberate.

And yes, we're going to add the option of zooming to the mouse location instead of the camera center. We're listening guys!
