zoom buttons?

[sparr]

I vaguely recall having a mod, back around 0.9, that gave me UI buttons for zooming to specific zoom levels. I can't find it. Does it exist? Is it updated? Should I write a new one?

You. could use the ui scaling in the graphic options menu.

UI scaling isn't related to game zoom, afaik. I'm talking about the zooming you normally do with the mouse wheel.

I don't recall seeing a mod that allows you to zoom using buttons, but then again I wasn't around when 0.9 was released.

It shouldn't be too difficult to write a mod that does this, it's basically a one-liner:

Code: Select all

/c game.local_player.zoom = 0.5

Instead of local_player you should use the player_index you get from the on_gui_click event.

The only problem is that zoom variable is Write-Only. So your mod could not know which is the current zoom level you last choose with your mousewheel... I already ask the devs for that, but they don't want to make it readable for obscure desync questions (infact, in case your mod would do something specific with this zoom value, it could cause desync).
