[0.15.1] Train disappears from Map View

Post by BlackKnight »

If zoomed out in map with no radar coverage and not close by, basic train representation is visible, if you zoom in, the train disappears from the map view for 0-5x zoom levels.

yeah i'm having trouble tracking down a train stop on a friends map. with many stops on the map together i can't read them.
if i zoom in the stop names are not visible. i don't know if its a bug, or there is a setting i'm missing. [edit] see post below. ;)

go to your options/controls. change "Alternate Zoom In/Out" to something else. ctrl+mouse wheel up/down works good for me.
you will then be able to zoom in to get normal map views back with mouse wheel up/down.

Can you make a gif showing what you're talking about? Because I don't understand what you're saying.

Rseding: it is about zoom-to-world and extra overlays not being rendered on map that covers chunks in fog-of-war

Here are two pictures of the same area in different zoom levels.
Picture 2 has no trains visible.

That's currently how the zoomed-to-world view works. None of the map highlighting/overview is present in the zoomed version.

It works that way by design right now.
