Ok well I have two problems that are keeping me from progressing on my map.
To start off I'll explain that I'm using a trick to make my map seem larger than it really is. For the space section I've scaled everything down to quite extreme measures. That includes my camera. I have my camera zoomed in to 0.77, works fine and all. However, it cuts off a rather significant portion of the right and left parts of the map. At normal zoom I can see just fine, but when super-zoomed in it's like hitting the camera bounds, which seem to be a dozen more units further than they're suppose to be. I'd really rather not re-arrange the entire map, hard enough fitting things properly as it is. So anyone know how I might fix this?
And, before anyone says anything, yes this is necessary to fit everything I want. It's a strategy type map and those you need big theaters of war for, especially if you're including both space and ground. So zooming it out really isn't an option.
The second problem is part of the extremely small scale I'm working at. My weapons all have far too great of a range. If I set a weapon range at zero, the lowest it can go, it still let's my ships shoot across half a solar system. That's way way way too far for what I need. Is there any sort of trick out there to reduce their firing range below zero? Anything at all?
Thank you in advanced for taking the time to read this.
