Summary0028833: Allow configuration of the camera distance on actor switching
DescriptionThe default camera distance when switching actors with the spacebar is quite close, and I often find the distance problematic; I frequently have to zoom out after the actor switch. That's fairly annoying, especially for quick turns where you're just killing one unit.

I think it'd be nice if this distance was configurable through the options somewhere. It didn't seem like any of the existing options affected this distance.

Thanks.

There's a related change in the current build that will not zoom in on actors anymore. Basically, it will zoom out if it has to, but otherwise it leaves your zoom alone. If this isn't sufficient, then feel free to reopen the issue (I won't always see comments unless you reopen, so be sure to do that step as well as comments). But overall, I think people prefer the game not mess with their zoom!

This change is fine with me, the major problem was just the zoom in on every actor switch. Thanks so much for the quick fix!

No worries if this comment isn't spotted, good luck with your game.
