    I have been using an Apple Mighty Mouse with my mac, and found the mouse zoom to be extremely sensitive even at a setting of 1. Today I bought a microsoft mouse thinking the sensitivity scale was designed for a more conventional mouse, but I find the sensitivity curve to be quite steep. Either way, both mouse wheels have me zoomed all the way out of the solar system in no time.Is there a suggestion for a type of mouse or mouse feature that's best to use? Maybe a zoom sensitivity curve editor? Would this be something that could be accomplished with a UI mod?

    Thanks!

    Currently PA uses mouse scroll acceleration :(. It is planned to be able to adjust this or turn it off.

    It really annoys me as well.

    I'm really looking forward to when that toggle is implemented.

    I am not sure but to me it seems like zooming becomes a lot more insensitive (meaning you have to scroll a lot more) as performance gets worse lategame. Still quite a few issues with camera control :p

    You rarely fling yourself way out into the system in your casts, so the few times I play I always forget that that actually takes a fair amount of control and am constantly going way too far, drives me crazy! :mad: This would be very high up on my list of fixes that would instantly make the game much better...

    Awesome. It's been a while since I've played any game, so wanted to make sure I wasn't missing something.

    Thanks!
