[0.15.6] Map view gets offset when zoomed out

[Wackerstamfer]

When viewing the minimap, or zooming out in map view, highlights such as mousing over ore, oil wells etc. get offset (up and left) when zoomed out.

This is also visible in the minimap when a train is rounding a corner and is apparently running next to the tracks.

Will post a screenshot when able

Unless I have misunderstood, that is the correct behaviour.
Zooming out in the map uses the current mouse cursor as an origin, ensuring that what is under the cursor stays under the cursor.

sorry for the bad resolutions but I had to zoom in to make my point.

So you think that this is intended?
The train offset when zooming out is not only present when in map view, but also on the minimaps. Trains are allways running next to their tracks. This is hardly the case when zoomed in.

In [0.15.9] this is still present, also present across saves.

These second screenshots capture your issue far better than your original ones. In the original ones I interpreted the oil field is being "get offset (up and left) when zoomed out" because your cursor is up and left of center and I cannot see that they are being rendered in the incorrect location.
I don't know if the trains being rendered one tile up and to the left is an issue or if it is a by-product of the way tracks placement works.

Hovering over orefields / oilfields etc has the same effect when zooming out the highlight moves to the upper left.
Mouse placement when zooming does not affect the offset as far as I can tell.

I have it on my pc and laptop.

I would say that this is more than minor thing only (not) visible when you zoom out o alot.

I find it however very much noticeable with respect to trains. You see it on the minimap, as it is allways zoomed out.
Would not bother me that much if it was consistent but when a train does a 90 degree turn from horizontal to vertical it gets switched from one side of the track to the other.

I would imagine this to be an "easy" fix as it is just a little offset, but what would I know .

Anyhow, you know now, do as you see fit (or don't)
