[City] Improved Zooming

[DeletedUser]

Summary
Add more levels to be able to zoom in more closely.

Description
I really like the design of the buildings in Elvenar.
Is there a possibility to add more zoom levels? It would be nice to zoom further in for a greater level of detail.

Motivation
Player engagement.

Possible downsides
Game performance.

Hi,
I am agree!

 

[DeletedUser]

I agree, that would be nice!

Another suggestion:
After zooming in or out, the center of my screen is somewhere far away from my village and i have to adjust the view to see my buildings again. Maybe it would be nice if you would ceep the center of the screen focused on the same spot while zooming.

Greetings

Huge plus 1 from me! This game is so beautiful, the artwork is spectacular and the buildings change all the time when you upgrade them. I would love to see the detail a lot better. I can change the zoom percentage of my browser but that still doesn't do it.

Please! More zoom!

I personally would like the current zoom system with a small tweak. A "city overview" which shows the entire city-span (meaning it shows the full grid that you could place expansions on) This would be pretty easy to code and would fix the issue permanently (whereas 3-tier zooming would only fix the issue until 3-tier is not enough to see the whole city)

I support this, but an extra zoomout would be cool too

We will now add a poll to this idea

Do browsers other than Chrome and Opera not allow Ctrl-mousewheel to zoom from 25%-200%?

 

[DeletedUser1596]

I must say no.

There are 1000 other things that should be taken care of and are more important. Maybe it's just me, but I don't spend too much time looking at graphic details. And if it slows the game down even a little bit, then it's a really bad trade for me.

 

[DeletedUser1657]

Decided to vote yes. I don't overall care much either way as long as performance is not impacted. If they do this though it needs to have more zoom out as towns are getting bigger and bigger, a view where we can see the city edges and the little chest without scrolling around like crazy would be very nice.

 

[Buttrflwr]

Yeah, chasing the chest is not a fun game.

I am not certain more zoom is possible. it's because of artists flaws. (imperfections)

it's like a painting, when you look at it it's a beautiful painting, but when you look closely you will notice the young lady is floating just above the ground, the tree brance is sometimes not 100% secure, and if you zoom in more the sky becomes nothing more dan dots and stripes.

To actually get some work done you have to be able to accept imperfections, it wats makes an artist great they make something imperfect and it looks awesome. when I start to make something t has to be perfect and it takes me a few decades to finish anything (and it still doesnt look as good as what an artists quickly produces)

I dont mind more zoom, but I dont see a reason either, I rather have more zoom out actually. that way I dont have to use browserzoom to see my entire city, because browserzoom creates this ugly stripe when you open UI's like the trader its extremly obvious. so I rateher have an ingame solution.

This poll unfortunately did not meet the minimum requirement of 80% in favor of the idea. Therefore we will now archive this thread.
