Variable Zoom

Feb 12, 2014 greenwall link
I could have sworn I read a suggestion about this in past times... but forum search turned up nothing.

Would be nice to have a variable zoom, instead of this 100x zoom or nothing option.

There used to be a bind for this, not sure if it still works or not. It didn't use the same bind-controlled ship movements that enabled auto-dodge binds, though, so it should.

I've been using the vzoom plugin for so long, and have it bound to the mousewheel, that I forget it isn't part of the game itself. And I completely take it for granted and probably use it more than I do even Targetless.
