the single-use placement would prevent me from panning the camera and 'adding more darkness' to the areas that were not in-view previous to my panning. i can't properly add darkness to the level and i suspect that even if i COULD pan the camera around, i wouldn't be able to fully engulf the level and its visible borders in darkness since their is a single-use placement of it. i'm on 1920x1080 and have tried everything. Originally posted by Remy:me too, middle-mouse click only snaps the view to the direct bottom and is un-alterable unless i restart editing the level. It would of course be nice to zoom out the camera altogether, which would fix my specific issue entirely for the map i'm creating. If your only comments are 'Supreme Commander sux' or 'This is Starcraft, everything done in other games must be wrong', get out. What we need for the darkness filter is what we have for the 'no-rain zones' - specific marqueed areas of darkness that we can add to the level - hopefully without any awkward looking overlapping (so that every intersecting area of darkness contributes to 1 single layer rather than overlapping and causing areas of double-darkness if that makes sense.) If youre too far out to pick units theyre displayed as symbols of their type so you can still select them and see whats where. Me too, middle-mouse click only snaps the view to the direct bottom and is un-alterable unless i restart editing the level.
