Ooh! Great idea! I'll look into that as soon as I get the chance. It may be tomorrow or Monday though, as we have family visiting today so I have to help clean the pig sty that is my house.

I've tried to find the value that controls how close the camera can get in the unit view, but I can't find it to save my life. One thing I did manage to change was the career room camera - gave it a bit more freedom to pan around the room, but I'm sure people won't exactly be desperate to get that, LOL.

Today I'm going to try transposing numbers over from the museum camera - that gets closer than the unit camera, so I might be able to track it down that way.

From playing the game I'm not so sure that those zoom limits are totally separate. In Unit View for my sub, sometimes I can zoom in very close,... then other times I can't get close at all.

It seems as though if I go to unit view while the sub is submerged, I can zoom in on the side of the sub very close. But if I go to unit view for the sub while it is surfaced, I can't zoom close at all.

Also, if I go to unit view while the sub is submerged, I can zoom close, then while still in that view, I surface and now I can still zoom in close while in unit view.

Just my observations so far...
