Index -> Playing the Game -> The Game Screen -> Map -> Moving and Zooming the Map
Moving your view across the map
You can change which area of the map (1) you are viewing in three ways:
- Click and drag anywhere on the map to slide your view of the galaxy accordingly.
- Double-click on any map object, or just an area of empty space, to center the map on that location.
- Click on the square button in the Map Controls (9) to re-center the map.
Zooming in and out of the map
If you'd like to get a closer look at a section of the map, or back up for a galactic eagle's view, you can either:
- Use the mouse-wheel or the magnifying glass icons on the Map Controls (9) to zoom in and out; or
- Click on the square button in the Map Controls to re-center the map.
