Ignoring the issues with icons disappearing at most zoom levels in the current build, I'd like to propose making icons scale with the zoom level. Once you have a large infrastructure the map gets to be exceptionally cluttered, and zoomed out everything starts to overlap and too much time is spent trying to find unit X or Y. What I suggest is that close up the icons are relatively large (perhaps larger than now), but as you zoom out they scale linearly so that the apparent distances between them are maintained. I think there needs to be a general icon redesign to help differentiate certain units (e.g. Fabbers and AA look really similar), but once that is done I think that visual scaling would help a lot with orientation and general lack of confusion.
