[suggestion]Auto Zoom

Postby renjong » Wed Aug 05, 2015 4:55 am

When you zoom in by mouse scrolling, it would be nice to set focus on the center of the mouse smoothly.

Just a nice feature to have. :D

The title is wrong, because there's nothing "auto" about this. "Zoom to mouse" is what this is, and yes, it's needed.

Pessimist that I am in such things, I don't expect it to happen anymore.

I was about to post a suggestion about having the game zoom to where the mouse cursor is, but since I found this thread I'll just bump it instead.

Ever since Supreme Commander introduced the feature that the game zooms to where the mouse pointer is, I have considered it the correct way to handle a top-down zoomable camera and have always implemented it this way in the little game projects I've made. It really makes a huge difference to the interface! I know you're not supposed to say this to developers, but please make this change, it's not hard :wink:

"e" and "q" zooms you in and out but I don't know if it is where your mouse is, I never use it.
