Be happy you can edit the zoom now, it may not be allowed but it can be done. GF could make it so there is no way to change this and then everyone would have the same zoom, this way it would be far for everyone. ;)

The rate of zoom (zoom chnage per mouse wheel click) is editable via the config file too :)

I think the routine is

Code: Select all

{weather needed for desired sups} = Not

Easy:

X = what you want to dig
Y = where you want to dig
Z = when you want to dig

X+Y+Z = Wrong weather!

i would like it only because it would make targeting a bit easier but it also would make other things easier and that is not good.
To be honest i would like a patch that makes it impossible to do, altering the config file is an exploit that should be addressed by the devs.
