Map zoom after clipboard map access
« on: July 02, 2006, 05:02:12 AM »
This is far from a game breaker, but it would be nice to fix if easy on HTC's end.

After accessing the clipboard maps (which show the layout of towns, bases, etc), returning to the arena map gives you the maximally zoomed out view. I know its simple enough to rezoom with the insert key, but....

If it were easy and straightforward, it would be nice to have the previous zoom setting remembered. OTOH, if the fix requires soem fancy recoding, its clearly not worth it for what is in all honesty a minor annoyance.

Thanks.

After posting, ti occurred to me why this may be set up like this. I bet that the program sets the zoom to minimum zoom to you can see the entire "clipboard" map of the field or whatever. If it didnt, you'd see only a small part of the field map correlating to the area you'd zoomed on the game map.

If thats so, i'd hope that AH could quicksave the zooma dn location settings, zoom out for the clipboard map, and reaccess the settings when you close the field map and go back to the game map.

Much like Simaril I've been annoyed at this from the beginning but I've never posted as it was such a minor annoyance...

Thanks HiTech
