On my system it takes 9-10 full pulls on the mouse wheel to go from closest to furthest.

You've got to be kidding...

You mean break the left mouse button instead of the mouse wheel?

This is a problem - one of the very, very few I've found in game. It's a big annoyance.

Status: offline 		Maybe it's just me, but I find I do not use the mouse scroll wheel very much at all. I use the keyboard arrow keys most often to shift my map view. And if I want to switch from one end of the map to the other I will use the mini-map. But the keyboard arrow keys work very quickly for me.

Status: offline 		Well I'm not going to get into "my request doesn't make any sense because it works for others" and vice versa - because round and round we'll go. I really didn't mean it to be a challenge to anyone else.

My request was to the developer because I'm finding the zoom scroll to be a pita. If he chooses to do something about it, all the better for me. If he does and it doesn't affect anyone else, then everyones a winner.

No challenge, just a comment that the mouse setting might help, but it depends on the hardware (I have several mice and they all perform differently). If the devs can provide a fix, than that's even better. My position on this and other forum is the more choice, settings and alternatives, the better the game will be.

Status: offline 		@Doom, thanks for the quick response; hope it's possible

@Bairdlander, thanks- the keyboard +/- is the best workaround for now

@Zakhal, tried different mouse settings to no avail

@Flaviusx, interesting- I'm on a fairly generic system running Win7 (64b); any idea what setting might be different?

@Rasputitsa, Fwiw I'm using a wired Logitech M100 mouse (low end optical mouse)

@all, Thanks for the replies

+1 for increasing mouse wheel sensitivity. Could you also do that for Storm over the Pacific?

Note to self: Try right mouse button zoom ASAP.

Right button does not zoom, but if you press and hold the right button, you can then drag the map with the mouse, which is a quicker way of getting around the board.
