Description

The in game camera (as opposed to the atlas camera) is severely limited in its motion. Its minimum angle is too high to take good low-angle shots and its max height above ground is too low to see very much. This makes it hard to take good screen shots and also makes base/unit management more difficult than necessary since you can't really get a good view of much of the battlefield or your own territory.

It'd be nice if the camera could go fully horizontal and maybe zoom out 50% farther, give or take. (I haven't been able to figure out how this works, else I'd have done it myself already)

Do you know you can press alt + D to open the developer overlay and unrestrict the camera ?

Also, the limits can be configured in the user config and #4638 is about exposing these to the player options menu.
