Peter, I believe you once implemented a new behaviour of the mouse during development of CE. The viewport would go a bit to the right if the cursor was moved to the right, a bit to the left if the cursor was moved to the left etc. The scrolling by touching the edge was disabled IIRC.

But at the end, matthes said it didn't fit or something so the feature was left out. For the new mouse controls however, the feature would fit exactly since now the mouse is understood as a direct mouse and not a RTS-mouse. The "problem" with the FoW would be gone too because the player could only see what's around the clonk anyway.

Any chance to dig that out again?

As far as I can tell, this feature is still in the code. Just set MouseAScroll to something other than 0 and it should start start interacting unpredictably with whatever features were introduced since then ;)

Iirc, regular mouse scrolling is broken with zoom anyway at the moment.

So you plan to disable FoW in OpenClonk? I liked the new FoW that followed lines of sight. :/

Not exactly. I am just saying that the FOW as a matter to cover the landscape would not be needed as there are limits on how far the player can look (see the game Soldat).

Independent of that, I don't like the new Fog of war. It is very klotzy and almost flickers if one is running around a spot.

Would the limits of view range be able to change at runtime? ie:Using a scoped musket/telescope
