Title: Overhead zooming problem
Post by: Mantis on May 12, 2003, 11:53:45 am
The overhead zooming function ceases to work for me when I "lock" onto a target. Once I target a ship, I am unable to change the zoom level. Is there something I am doing wrong?

No, you're not doing anything wrong....

Dunno which version you mean, but in SFC2 the overhead view will show you AND the target in the same screen... Once you've locked on of course...

If you run with it, it'll zoom all by itself as you get closer....

Hope that helped....

To set a minimum zoom with the top-down:

Select F1, Select F5, set minimum with + - keys, reselect F5.

Your zoom in will cease at that level, and expand to infinity.
