     59Add `view.zoom.max = "300"/ view.zoom.min = "30"` to your `user.cfg` file (see [https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/GameDataPaths wiki/GameDataPaths]). Increasing `view.zoom.max` will let you zoom out further, decreasing the value for `view.zoom.min` will let you zoom in closer. The game's default values are 200 and 50.[[BR]][[Image(FAQ:view.zoom.jpg,center,500)]]
