Zoom out bug?

Post by GottaLove88s »

Does anyone else have this problem?

Sometimes, maybe 1-in-10 games or so, when I am watching the replay of my MP opponent's moves, the game zooms out and keeps zooming out. I can counteract this by zooming back in, but at best this just holds the screen steady-ish, as it jitters between it wanting to zoom out, and me wanting it not to. When I stop zooming in, it zooms out again. Which makes the replay rather hard to watch.

Is there a method, maybe a clever keystroke, to stop this? All I can do is quit the game, restart BA2, and reload the scenario. It won't let me see the replay, because as far as the game engine is concerned I've already seen it once and saved by turn. But it will let me continue from there.

This happened on BA1 and now on BA2, on two different Mac laptops...

:? :? :?

You can watch the replay again by using the small red circular arrow down near the End Turn button...

As for the zoom issue...never seen that on PC. Uhh...maybe start using PC? :wink: :mrgreen:

Thanks Al, Not sure if this is the same on PC version, but on the Mac, if you save to continue your turn later (which you have to do to stop the zoom out bug) then when you reload, there's nothing to replay...

Ahh...have to try that but it may be the same across platforms...
