Camera Control and "where is my fleet?"
I got two things I was wondering if you could o anything about.

First, is there anything you guys can do abut he camera control?
I'm thinking of the galaxy map when the camera is centred and zoom in on something like an electromagnetic disturbance.

It's like the game is trying to say "look over here this is important", while I am actually trying to get some work done somewhere else and I prefer to have the camera zoomed out to the step before the galaxy view so I can get an overview of whats happening in an area.

Second could you add an option to locate the fleet?
I often find myself struggling with figuring out where my fleet is because it's on guard duty somewhere, but are hidden by something else.
I find my fleet is often obscured by a space factory or some structure somewhere making them difficult at best to locate.

You can locate fleets on the Fleets menu by clicking on them already.

Setting MaintainZoomDuringCameraMove =1 under Gameplay in config.cfg will prevent it from zooming all the way out and back in for those things, but it still leaves it all the way zoomed in.

Found an option in the game menu after posting this to turn off the camera moving and zooming.

Looked at the fleet menu after your reply and found exactly what I was looking for, however when I looked at it earlier today it showed me a list with a starmap like when you are assigning leaders to colonies or ships.

Whatever happened I found what I was looking for.
Appreciate you taking the time to respond
