zoom issue

I'm not sure if your supposed to be able to do this, but once you select a unit and click on lets say deliberate move you can't zoom in or out until you complete the order. Your stuck at whatever zoom your at when you try to give an order.

As designed right now. With the focus on the waypoints, zooming could cause problems. If you need to move the map, the best thing at that point is to use the mini/jump map.

thought that might be the case, thx for the reply.

Part of the issue with the zoom feature was the fact it was added very late in the game compared to the rest of the graphics code. With so many players with various screens we had to not only do 100 to 40% but also zoom up to above 100 for folks with jumbotrons. The latter was very unexpected and very last minute before the game released last year. We will have to see if we can smooth the zooming a bit more with 2.1. Time will tell.
