[0.15.3] GUI camera zoom does not scale with GUI

Post by MagmaMcFry »

A camera GUI element's zoom does not change with the GUI scale setting in the options menu. This means that reducing the GUI scale makes the camera element show less of the map.

This is an issue when I need the camera to show a specific area of the map.

Thanks for the report,

This is simply how the camera element works, and unfortunately having it zoom with Gui scale isn't effective bahviour

Isn't effective behavior? What do you mean by that? I see no use for the camera element where it is better for the camera not to scale with the GUI. Wouldn't it be the most reasonable behavior for the camera to scale with the GUI?

Since I cannot read a player's gui scale setting, and the camera zoom doesn't scale with GUI, the only way for my players to set the camera properly is to somehow input their GUI scale manually (in my case by changing a mod setting). And that's horrible.
