On my game I notice when you zoom out and zoom back in the orientation of the map is different. Then I try to press space and align the map as it was before I zoomed out but it reverts back to what it was before most of the time. Is there some what to always keep the orientation the same so it does not become so dizzying D:.
enable pole locking in the settings. Then pick between arrows and WASD for rotating the camara, and it becomes way easier to manage the whole thing.
