Zoom Out

[Dev]

Zoom out to a distance like this but the entire screen loads.

Its actually probably a bug, but I don't really know how I did it.

I would really want something similar to the old WoC where one was able to see all the nations' land on one screen. Also the ability to search for a nation name in a search bar or something of that nature.

You can zoom out further like that in the 3D view by holding down shift while pressing the down arrow. It doesn't show any part of the map beyond that square though, because the more of the world that the client is looking at, then more server load and net traffic updating every client about every change that takes place in the whole area that they are viewing. For that reason, the 3D view is unlikely to be able to view out much further in the future.

The server could generate a map image showing what nations own each square in the world, like old WoC's map would show. That's on the long term todo list.

Good stuff, Mike. Looking forward to those updates in the future.

This shift zoom stuff is awesome!
