Better Zoom

English | 简体中文

This mod allows you to zoom in and out much further than what's possible in Vanilla.

Very useful to people who play in lower resolutions or who want to have high resolution sprites.

How to use:

In Settings:

Clicking on the Zoom or UIScale text next to the sliders will reset the value to 100%.

You can toggle between slider and exact input using the toggle button next to the header text "Zoom". The text box only takes 3 numbers and pressing the Enter key or clicking away will submit the change.

NOTE: You can enter any 3 digit number into the text box, including possibly invalid ones, which may cause a crash.

Zoom:

Changing the Zoom slider or Pressing the plus or minus keys on your keyboard (not the ones on the numpad) will zoom your game in and out just like normal, but instead of zooming from 100% to 200%, you can zoom from 30% to 1000%

Warning the more you zoom out the laggier it gets! I can't do anything about the lag, but you can disable rendering tile in the Config if it's too much.

UI Scale:

You can now change the UI Scale from 30% to 600%. You can also change this by holding shift while pressing plus or minus.

Mod Config:

Background Scale (default: 'off'):

This toggles if the background should zoom too.

Cursor Scale (default: 1x):

This changes the size of your cursor.

Zoom Range (default: 30% - 1000%):

This changes the minimum and maximum amount of zoom you can set.

UI Scale Range (default: 50% - 400%):

This changes the minimum and maximum amount of UI Scale you can set.

Disable UI Zoom Hotkey (default: 'off'):

Disables the Shift+Plus/Shift+Minus Hotkey to change the UI zoom.

Render more tiles (default: 'on'):

Turning this on renders more tiles outside the normal view range. Note: This will make the game noticeably laggier the more you zoom out. I can't do anything about that.

Tile render limit (default: 1.0):

This sets at which zoom level you can see more tiles. The lower it is, the laggier the game but the more tiles you can see. For example if you set this to 0.5 (50%) you can see tiles up to 50% zoom.

Zoom Speed (default: 1.0)

Changes how fast you zoom in using the keyboard. 1 is normal speed, 10 is 10x faster.
