That's the "how do I make eufnoc angry?" feature.  However, it's standard, I had the same. Perhaps the surprise is bigger if you see the station first and then zoom out and get a view of the area around you. It's for the drama!

Hi. I just wanted to second (or third, or fourth...) the request for greater zooming features. Right now I'm unable to zoom out far enough, and after a while it really becomes frustrating. lol

I do, but when placing structures on the map I think I'm just not able to zoom out far enough. I often can't see the structure and the empty space next to it where I'd like to build. (I'm all anal about where I build. It's... a thing. lol) Thanks for the reply.

I agree with making the ability to zoom out greater it would be nice to get an entire base in view...

Hi, to zoom out further, youŽll have to edit the following line in the rts_cfg.h in your game root directory:
float OVERVIEW_MAX_HEIGHT = 2200.0;
I recommend to change the value to 3000.0;
The more you zoom out, the more youŽll slow down the scroll speed.
