Description
[http://sourceforge.net/p/ufoai/feature-requests/114 Item 114] imported from sourceforge.net tracker on 2013-01-28 20:14:20

In a tactical combat, camera zooming is achieved by
increasing or decreasing the viewing angle. This leads
to deformations when zoomed out. I believe zooming
should be changed to adjusting the camera height.

Also when zooming in it would be nice to be able to zoom
down to the first person perspective of the respective
soldier (to judge his visibility).

SVN trunk revision 4497 implements this feature request.

Note: most zooming is now achieved via camera distance
changes, but after some experimentation I determined some
FOV change was beneficial... but I limited it to a maximum
of 95 (only minor distortion when zoomed out).

PS: to "nobody" who left a comment here... you can press "v"
and change to first-person soldier view (doesn't work at the
moment properly in isometric mode though).

This has now been tweaked, tested and merged to 2.0 branch.
Marking as done & closing.
