Not Feasible

Applies to:

DM Language

Status:

Not Feasible

Implementing this feature is not possible now or in the foreseeable future

I'd like for there to be a flag that makes the object not be affected by map_zoom.

appearance_flags = NO_MAP_ZOOM.

Mainly for hud objects that I don't want to be affected.

Or maybe for it to be possible only in certain planes. So the obj that has plane_master, if it has this appearance flags, it's plane doesn't get zoomed in.

Plz lummi

Nadrew	If you're already using planes you shouldn't really need the skin's map zoom element. You can simply scale an entire plane to zoom it in while excluding other planes.

NSBR	Yes you're right, but with the map_zoom, I can cut the extra view that is outsize of my fov. With plane masters, if I tried to cut the extra view, I'd have black borders. I want to cut the extra view cause less view to process = less things to process = game runs faster. If I could do that to the plane_master zoom then I'd be fine with disregarding this feature request.
