Zoom feature

Post by FakeDeath »

I don't know if it's programmed or a bug, but on many servers I can't use my zoom feature. Zoom+, Zoom- and Zoom.

Does someone know why this is?

EDIT: I found out that I can use the zoom feature on the DDrace servers only. Is this because you don't want to have people cheating in normal CTF servers or other similar servers? Or is there another reason?

That is the reason yes, zooming out on CTF is cheating

In my opinion zooming should be allowed for all gametypes. For vanilla the networkdatas you get are clipped anyway and if you zoom out you can see just a little bit more but not all tees on the specific map.

But how far you see depends on your ping when tees are moving, which makes it unfair.
