Summary0019164: fortress icon flickers weirdly
DescriptionWhen you build a fortress, the icon can sometimes flicker really weirdly, especially as you change zoom levels when almost entirely zoomed out.

Also, there seems to be no level of zoom that lets you take a really good look at the structure, which is too bad because it looks awesome.
TagsNo tags attached.

For the level of zoom thing:

* The very low end of the camera zoom now has a few more gradations where it shows more of a side-facing view, and then the very lowest zoom level actually looks back UP slightly, allowing you to see tall ships and structures better, and in general get a little more cinematic of a view. This has no effect on the higher zooms.

@BadgerBadger: Is this still happening?

If it is, then @Cinth we need to have the gimbal y offset raised up. The savegame here would let you test that.

Added the attribute " y_offset_of_icon="20" " to the fortress xml entry

It seems to have helped the flickering
