Compass zoom

(kvilli) #1

Does someone know how to save the compass zoom -setting? After each round the game just forgets the zoom level and I have to zoom out manually (, -key by default).

Thank you.

Hiya all.

I came across this topic using the search function.
Does anyone know, if it exists, the cvar to set for the default compass zoom level.
I know you can set it in game using . and ,
I want to be able to set it so it apears a certain size evrytime?
without having to use those keys.

Thanks in advance

There’s no variable for the zoom level, so this is the best I can suggest (and this will only work with etpro):
To start off with the map zoomed out 3 levels (for example), create autoexec_default.cfg in …/etpro with the following content:

wait
wait
mapzoomout
mapzoomout
mapzoomout

The two 'wait' commands defer the mapzoomin commands for 2 frames, because the client hasn't finished registering commands (in particular, mapzoomin/mapzoomout :D) when the script is actually executed.  After that, the script just does exactly what it says--zooms out 3 levels.  The reciprocal of that works as well, of course, and you could use mapzoomin instead of mapzoomout.
