Map scrolling issues

Map scroll bugs

from Stardock.net Forums

I feel like there is a bug with map scrolling currently as per default. I move the cursor to the edge of the screen to pan and once I get where I want I move my cursor to pick a turret and place it but I find the screen position is still scrolling in the direction I moved it. I try to go in the opposite direction and then it again just keeps scrolling in that new direction. It's like the screen is an air hockey puck. It 'floats' and it's super annoying and game breaking.

Second bug with the screen is you have to fight the directed camera panning at the beginning of the map. You can't cancel it and you have to fight it to try and start placing turrets (since the wave timer is already going during the map intro). Either remove camera control to force your map intro 'cutscene' or immediately cancel it when I manually move the camera. But forcing me to fight it is stupid.

I'm also really annoyed that wasd isn't the keyboard controls for panning the screen. Who even uses arrow keys anymore?
Turret hotkeys should just be the numbers and abilities r,t,f,g,v,b leaving wasd for screen panning.

You can change this in options..  Change Bind Cursor, (I changed it to never, then you can move the focus of the screen with right mouse button.)  You can also change Camera Pan Speed  (I changed it to 300%).  This helped greatly.  Hope that helps.

Please check other posts before posting the same issue the other posts point out...  Much appreciated.

I'm trying to stay positive, letting you know how to resolve your issue, not to be a part of an issue with no solution.  This solves the problem, and will work just fine with the changes.  Do I agree it could be faster, or allow the player to zoom out further, sure.  Have you attempted to adjust the settings to see how it works for you?
