Cycling three-setting toggle zoom is pretty much the worst possible zoom control scheme. Since new throttle control options have been added, how about some zoom control options? Add new keybinds for increase/decrease zoom, direct settings for each zoom level, and maybe an option to switch between toggle and hold-to-zoom.

Sounds good.

Can we also improve the 4x zoom to be worthwhile while we're at it?

I'd like that too, but PGI is already looking at it and the reason something hasn't already been done is that there are technical issues in improving the fidelity of a PIP zoom without impacting performance. This thread is about adding more and better keybinds for controlling the zoom level, which really should take about 5 minutes of coding work and would be a boon to many players.

Mouse scroll wheel perhaps?

[skill gap]

I came here to post the same suggestion. I'd like to see separate zoom in/out bindings with mouse wheel up/down as defaults.

Yep probably the best idea I've heard all day, and I've heard a lot of ideas today!
